Media Bias & bin Laden

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Qd4QMODnCc&feature=player_embedded by Jim Hoover The above Youtube video connection documents George W. Bush’s total lack of interest in Osama bin Laden in 2006.

Kudos for Barack..But

By Jim Hoover Barack, I know you have been busy. I followed your schedule last week. While House Republicans were trying to reinvent the truth about their House voting against Medicare, you were producing your long-form birth certificate to shame Trump, who has none; comforting disaster victims in the…

Enemies of the People!

By Jim Hoover The five men photo featured here have proved themselves enemies of the people by rejecting the people and embracing plutocrats (the rich).

Osama bin Laden Could Have Been Gone Sooner?

By Jim Hoover Osama bin Laden, the al-Qaeda leader responsible for thousands of deaths, is dead.

How the War on Family Planning Began.

The sign at the Tea Party rally “No Pubic Option” could be how the Republicans took up the war on family planning. Just a misspelled sign during a demonstration against health care reform? Honestly it could be a rallying cry for sexual abstinence as well, something our public funds…

Shadow of Bush

By: Jim Hoover Many progressives thought we were getting the antithesis of the incurious, swaggering, insensitive, mediocre, frat-boy Bush. Most of us were fooled.
