You may have heard something about it — this is the event where Reverend Rick Scarborough blamed all of Tom DeLay’s legal troubles on DeLay’s alledged dedication to Christianity.
Elizabeth Castelli has an “excellent piece in the Revealer”:http://www.therevealer.org/archives/main_story_002500.php about the conference, giving [...]

One question that’s bugged us about the President’s domestic surveilence program is this: if the law was insufficient for their needs, why not ask Congress for a change in the law?
That question has not been answered, but it has been made _obsolete_. The new question is: if the law was insufficient, why did they “oppose legislation [...]

“Some time ago”:http://www.thudfactor.com/textpattern/index.php?id=1096 I whined about iTunes and “Kim”:http://www.thymewise.net/blog/ pointed me to the “Live Music Archive”:http://www.archive.org/audio/etree.php. The LMA distributes recordings of live concerts — all made and distributed with the permission of the bad. Kim and her husband “Scott”:http://www.gamersnook.com/blog/ dig the LMA because of all the “Grateful Dead”:http://www.archive.org/audio/etreelisting-browse.php?collection=etree&cat=Grateful%20Dead concerts (2,775 currently) and, I’m guessing here, “Railroad Earth”:http://www.archive.org/audio/etreelisting-browse.php?collection=etree&cat=Railroad%20Earth [...]

There is absolutely something funny with the vote count “according to MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann”:http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6368819.
Besides the already-mentioned five counties in Florida that polled strongly Democratic turning out a Bush landslide, Olbermann says there are twenty-four others with similar problems.
In Cuyahoga County, Ohio, apparently the GOTV effort in the Spirt world was effective: 93,000 _more votes than voters_. [...]
