Today brings a different look at Net Neutrality as seen by a telecom lawyer. Peter Huber argues that the one group net
Courtesy of Drudge is this report from the New York Observer quoting Joe Biden on Barack Obama.
Mr. Biden is equally skeptical—albeit in a slightly more backhanded way—about Mr. Obama. “I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy,” he said. “I mean, that’s
When you’re not John Kerry, and flub a joke badly, the media will apparently come to your defense. Just ask Hillary Clinton. When a supporter asked her what in her background had prepared her to deal with evil men, she replied, without answering, by repeating the question and offering a shrug of the

Today’s exhibit comes from Buffalo, NY where a couple of real winners were trying to woo the same 18 year-old, West Virginia girl over the Internet.
While I was off in Nevada drinking, gambling, and firing automatic weapons (thanks to John Hlinko for the referral on that one), the political world was getting exciting.
