Caution, caution, caution! Democratic Party, Republican Party and bad contributors!

A disturbing news for the Democratic Party, and the Republican Party to a certain extent, has appeared on Yahoo! Finance. Raj Rajaratnam, a Wall Street billionaire, originally from Sri Lanka and with dual citizenship, whose net worth is valued at $1.3 billion, was arrested, together with six hedge funds managers for allegedly conducting insider trading schemes which generated illegal profits of [...]

Pat Buchanan supports Barack Obama??? So do I.

Pat Buchanan surprised me with his Townhall column entry where he expressed support for President Obama’s stance on what is happening in Iran. I didn’t expect that, as on a Hardball issue several weeks ago he supported former Vice-President Richard Cheney on his speech against the same person he is now defending.

Something fishy in the New Haven case???

The reverse discrimination New Haven case that analysts are currently following is famous for one more interesting fact as well. It has often been discussed for the last couple of weeks that Appeals Court Judge Sonia Sotomayor, who was one of the judges at the appellate level who decided on that case, is at the top of many [...]

Shame on New Haven

New Haven, Connecticut, where Yale University is located, is the city that reached to the surprising decision not to promote firefighters to lieutenants or captains. The reason for that was because there were no African American and only two Hispanic firefighters who were likely to be made lieutenants or captains based on the results, as the New Haven [...]

U.S. Judicial system strengthened

Recovery.gov has turned into a really useful website. Instead of having to visit several websites so that you know where the taxpayers’ money goes, you can go there and find the links that you have been looking for. That’s been its purpose, and it’s working. This article is about the Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) Program.

Barack Obama compared with George W. Bush on Bagram detainees

Today’s Huffington Post came out with this article on their home page. Although it merely explains the matter, it looks as if authors Nedra Pickler (who appears to have had numerous blunders so far… click here and here) and Matt Apuzzo are trying to criticize the President’s standing on the issue of Afghan detainees, not to mention its [...]

Recovery.gov – the beginning of further efficiency

With the passage of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act came this brand new website recovery.gov. Last month I somewhat doubted that all the spending would be published there, and I still have reserved feelings about it although it shows where your money is going.

First stop – Economic Stimulus Package; next stop – banks’ bailout

The economic stimulus package (click on the link to see what it is about) is about to be signed into law by President Barack Obama today in Denver. Unlike the Republicans who condemn it by calling it a spending package, a europeanization of the U.S., etc., I believe in the President’s assuredness that it is going to [...]

WWW.RECOVERY.GOV – way to go, Mr. President

I think it’s great to have this website.

Are the U.S. moving to the radical left???

I remember the second last night before Election Day (I was watching MSNBC then) when Senator John Ensign (R – Nevada) warned the American people that electing Democratic supermajority in the two chambers of the U.S. Congress would turn the country to the radical left. How miserable can the Republicans get by going for the desperate move to describe the Democrats as [...]
