I'm stopping by after a long time just to see what has/hasn't changed around here. The old - Many of my friends are still around, still posting frequently. Many still have the same avatar. I am glad to see "staples of the hobby" still helping newbies as they helped me years ago. Thank you...

Today the GOP announced they will keep doing what they have been doing since president Obama got elected Rachel Maddow called it last night, before the official news (Look at minute 9:15 at least) In the meantime, thousands of jobless Americans will start to lose their unemployment benefits...

Today the Senate voted down a bill that would have helped millions of unemployed workers.

Interesting article about the Californian budget crisis and how it would affect the entire nation. The article mentions how Americans complain about paying too much taxes "when in reality we don't pay enough."

Once again, Dr. Rachel Maddow, who may be considered by many on this forum to be "too extreme," brought up yet another important issue, this time concerning civil rights and the Kentucky Senate candidate Rand Paul. Find here an article on the New York Times which has an embedded video from the...
