Democrats secure sweep to power in Congress - Yahoo! News

I've held off to see what the final results were but the Democrats pulled it off. Now maybe we'll start to see some bi-partisanship by the President if he wants to get anything done. I feel better about the direction this country will be going right now...but stay tuned, it's going to be an interesting couple of years.

Too bad as I really loved their stuff. Some couldn't get past Justin's vocals but to me it was part of the appeal.

The attempt to ban books is alive and well

The attempt to ban books is alive and well it seems:

Ga. mother seeks Harry Potter ban

"Laura Mallory, a mother of four, told a hearing officer for the Gwinnett County Board of Education on Tuesday that the popular fiction series is an "evil" attempt to indoctrinate children in the Wicca religion.

Parent criticizes book 'Fahrenheit 451'

"It's just all kinds of filth," said Alton Verm, adding that he had not read "Fahrenheit 451." "The words don't need to be brought out in class. I want to get the book taken out of the class."
He looked through the book and found the following things wrong with the book: discussion of being drunk, smoking cigarettes, violence, "dirty talk," references to the Bible and using God's name in vain. He said the book's material goes against their religions beliefs. The Verms go to Grand Parkway Church in Porter."

I hope these people never find out about the internet.

POWDER PUFF SPOOKS KEITH - New York Post Online Edition: Gossip

Isn't it nice to see the NY Post treat an act of terrorism as something to make fun of. If this had happened to one of their reporters they'd be singing a different tune.

POWDER PUFF SPOOKS KEITH - New York Post Online Edition: Gossip: "A note inside warned Olbermann, who's a frequent critic of President Bush's policies, that it was payback for some of his on-air shtick."
