The megamedia seem to be catching on that McCain was a POW...cause that answer comes up again and again and again with McCain.  
But McCain is supposed to be hesitant to invoke his POW status:

So its hard to believe that John McCain is now in danger of... - [Read more]

Divorce Records: Most of these records do not require government authorization. %HEADER%. Basically a public record is a piece of information that has been filed and recorded by public agencies. CIA's Electronic Reading Room is a great resource for it allows you to take a glance at CIA public records. See public divorce records in [...] - [Read more]

On the day before leaving for Netroots Nation, I voted for Jim Martin for U.S. Senate in the July 15 General Primary Election here in Georgia.  

At the polling place I was the only voter but there were a dozen or so poll workers.  After voting (on one of those damned Diebold machines) I asked if Id get a receipt.  In lieu of one I was given a cute little sticker with a graphic of a Georgia Peach with Im a Georgia Voter printed on it.  I laughed and said that makes me... - [Read more]

Too many New Years Eves will come and go before humanity drinks from that Cup of Kindness Robert Burns spoke of in his classic poem, "Auld Lang Syne".  Tragically, that moment may never come to pass, but if it does someday, it will be because people in this troubled world finally listened to poets, writers, singers and songwriters, and heeded the words of truth and wisdom theyve been offering ever since the first warrior of the first king died for nothing on the first battlefield.  ... - [Read more]

Original article, by Simon Assaf, via www.socialistworker.org.uk:

The occupation of Afghanistan has entered a new and deeper crisis. A rising number of sophisticated attacks on foreign troops, combined with a growing rebellion in Pakistan and Russias crushing of Nato ally Georgia, have raised the prospect that the occupation is heading for defeat.

A background check is an important part of living in this day and age. Many people will be subject to these types of checks for safety reasons, for employment reasons, and for the value that they can provide, based on their past. Good or bad, these checks are used frequently to determine if [...] - [Read more]

I think its wonderful news from Beijing about Henry Cejudo winning the gold medal in freestyle wrestling. In case you havent heard his story, his mother raised he and his six siblings in the US after coming here from Mexico as an undocumented migrant at the age of 14.

I just read Starhawk's letter from the Republican National Convention protests...the one for the first.   It's of course avaliable on her website, but both her site and the letter are avaliable on the orange satan:

Arrest Records Online: Some of them include knowx. Therefore, our first tip for anyone beginning to search for public arrest records on the internet is to be as specific as possible.

While were waiting, these folks are waiting too, but many of them far from home.

So heres the refugee edition.

Just a few quick links from the NOLA blogs.  Nice thing about these blogs is if you visit one, you end up linking to all the others, and they are all worth reading.

Oyster at Your Right Hand Thief:

The bloggers I am about to quote -- and there are so many more in this group equally as good -- have emerged as sort of a blogging coalition since Katrina hit.  They have, working together (even when they violently disagree with each other), gotten the real story out on whats been going on in New Orleans, from housing to the recovery to the colorful politics that they are working hard to change from within and without.  I believe they are an excellent example of citizen... - [Read more]

The tax benefits of both plans are quite similar, but there are several differences. The biggest and most important difference is that your HSA balances can roll over from year to year and continue to grow tax-deferred.

How far do you go before winning becomes losing, and becomes just a shiny new paintjob hawked by a very good salesman?
