Newpaper Politics

On the day before the election, the Business Section of the LA Times chooses to print this front page article about gas prices. Apparently a notable percentage of Americans thinks that Bush has manipulated gas prices pre election.
No telling if that same notable percentage believes that Republicans forced John Kerry's foot into his mouth last week.

UPDATE:
And on election day, the Times ran an article questioning whether the Timing of the conviction of Saddam Hussein was manipulated by the Republicans.
I think their Wagging Dog needs walking!

An introductory economics class should be required in every high school. Nothing fancy (and political), just your basic supply and demand.

But is there the political will to require a class that would show up the majority of politicians as fools or liars?

Are the Rumpus depressed this "day after"?

CIV is still waiting with fingers crossed to learn who will be our junior senator next year.

Sure, I'm kinda depressed. I wish I had some fabulous paranoia (Fraud! Stolen election! Diebold! Fake turkey!) to console me, but I think the American people just decided a Speaker Pelosi and a Majority leader Reid couldn't be any worse than the leadership we have now.

I guess we'll find out, won't we?

"There's got to be a morning after". . . a horrible song for a depressing morning. But this is democracy. . the people have spoken. . I will not cry or DeWhine, and I welcome two new political leaders, Nancy Pelosi and Daniel Ortega!

I forgot about President Ortega, Stewdog! Everything old is new again.

But he won *his* election by becoming a "Christianist" and a "theocrat."

Doogie Houser is gay?

That's news? That's "glorious" news? Now, if Donald Rumsfeld were gay . . .
