hi, Lisa,
i read the letter condemning both political parties
today and it's very sad there are folks who feel that
way. it's not that there is only one party in power,
it's that it's the WRONG party in power. can you and
your readers imagine what wondrous things we could
accomplish without the neanderthol neocons holding us
back? i'm sure there are a few corrupt Democrats, but
it's not a party-wide cancer like the one killing the
Republican party now. the bottom line is that the
Democratic Party is the party of the American people
and the Republican Party is the party of big business,

big money and big borrowing. thanks again for being a
bright spot in the darkness of republican rule. :-)

I agree. It is sad.

Republicans have raped us. Now it's time for the
Democrats to file charges.

The implications stemming from a geomagnetic superstorm akin to the one that occurred in 1859 would be economically devastating given our reliance upon satellites. That's the view of Sten Odenwald of the QSS Corporation based at the Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.

A 'Sea Lite Beam Director' developed by Hughes Aircraft Company. The US Army test-fired a powerful laser beam from this device at a satellite in October 1997. The New York Times says the US government is conducting research into building a ground-based laser weapon that could destroy enemy satellites in orbit.(Photo/Hughes Aircraft)

Ralph Nader and the FEMA Trailers

Consumer advocate Ralph Nader says former President Bill Clinton should be "raising the roof" to get 10,000 trailers moved from his hometown to where they can be used to provide shelter to storm victims.

Nader sent a letter to Clinton urging him to help get the mobile homes - parked by FEMA at the Hope Airport - to Gulf Coast residents who need them.

 

“A Senate panel has recommended getting rid of FEMA. They want to close FEMA down. I tell you, in six or eight weeks when FEMA hears about this they're going to be furious.”-- Jay Leno

Jon Stewart Praises Stephen Colbert

"It was balls-alicious," Stewart said. "Apparently he was under the impression that they'd hired him to do what he does every night on television" -- that is, make fun of conservatives, public officials, and the press in the guise of an O'Reillyesque talk show host.

"We've never been prouder of him, but HOLY ----," Stewart added.
