New Math?

Yesterday Congressional Democrats introduced a bill that would have required president Bush to release 70 million barrels of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. The President objected to this, as he felt it would leave us less prepared during a national security crisis (please refer to the word “strategic” in the title of the [...]

Earlier, we looked at the impact of the cash advantage on the United States Senate. Now we’ll look at the other house.
U.S. House of Representatives
Democrats currently hold a 236-199 advantage in Congress. Cook Political Report House Editor David Wasserman believes they will pick up “12 to 17″ more seats this year.

News reports are out today analyzing the financial health of the national parties… and it doesn’t bode well for Republicans.
U.S. Senate
First, consider the United States Senate. Neither Senator Bill Nelson nor Senator Mel Martinez stand for re-election this year. Which may be a good thing for Republicans, but let’s look around the country.
The [...]

A hearing was held Monday regarding the continuing water dispute between the states of Georgia, Alabama and Florida in Chattahoochee, FL. The dispute has been going on in federal court since 1990.
U.S. Rep. Allen Boyd, D-Monticello, hosted the forum at the Corps of Engineers offices overlooking Lake Seminole, where the Apalachicola River begins at Jim [...]

By now it’s entirely probable that you’ve digested more than a few opinion pieces that predict a bloodbath for Republicans across the country in both federal and state races. Without debating the merits of those predictions, it’s an equally realistic prognostication to assert that there will be surprises in races throughout the country [...]

Nancy Pelosi has a delightful outlook on life. Remember when several of the Democratic representatives balked at the tax rebate that President Bush proposed last year?
Well, the times they are a-changin’!

It’s true that these sentiments fly in the face of the conventional wisdom, the environmentalists, and Governor Charlie Crist. There is however ample evidence that shows that both increased CO2 emissions and offshore drilling would be better for our planet and our economy. Over the past two years, it has been painful to watch the [...]
