MSNBC should spellcheck

They might want to look into actually reading what they wrote. Emphasis is mine on spelling. The grammar is another story.

He then told the crowd he disagrees with McCain on a number of issues, but that he’d given the mater a lot of thougth and if he fought on all the way to the Republican convention, ” I forestall the launch of a national campaign and frankly I’d be makign it easier for Senator Clinton or Obama to win. Frankly, in this time of war, I simply cannot let my campaign be a part of aiding a surrender to terror.” Romney added, “If this were only about me, I can go on.  But its never been only about me. I entered this race… because I love America, and because I love America, in thsi time of war, i feel I now have to stand aside, for our party and for our country.”

Democratic Candidates “Debate”

Dear Tim Russert,

This was barely a debate. Also, there was absolutely no equal time. Most of the time was given to Obama, Clinton, and Edwards. I wanted to hear what Mike Gravel had to say. He probably spoke for 2 minutes total. Thanks for nothing. Gravel and Kucinich are, according to the Political Compass, in my section of the quad.

Just an observation

If voting is the most important thing that we can do as citizens in a democracy, why aren’t national elections designated as federal and state holidays to encourage better turnout?

Net neutrality amendment defeated in committee

Why?

While not the end of the road for net neutrality, the latest vote isn’t a good sign. From the article: ‘The Senate Commerce Committee on Wednesday rejected a network neutrality amendment, handing cable and phone broadband access providers yet another victory over a coalition that has demanded the application of strict nondiscrimination standards against entities that control access to millions of Internet users. The panel voted 11 to 11 to defeat an amendment sponsored by Sens. Olympia Snowe (R-Maine) and Byron Dorgan (D-N.D.), who had backing from Google, Yahoo!, eBay, Amazon, Microsoft and other firms that deliver voice, video, and information services and applications.’ All 10 Democrats on the committee, as well as Republican co-sponsor Sen. Snowe, voted for the amendment. The other 11 Republicans voted against.
