Can the Senate Refuse to Seat Burris?

Jan 3, 2009
I’ve been reading a series of articles about the question of whether the Senate can refuse to seat Burris. The discussion necessarily revolves around constitutional language about the Senate’s...

"Empty Suit" is too positive a tag for Burris

Jan 2, 2009
The phrase “empty suit” has an implication of a big zero– that the holder of the title has nothing to contribute.  That seems to be the standard appellation for the senator designate of...

  No longer interesting... former high traffic has been run off by unwelcoming host for any ideas to the right of her extreme left.

  Don't be fooled here. They seem nice at first but if you don't agree with them, they will turn on a dime and bitch you out. Then they allow people who advocate torture go on and on and on, while they kick Dickie Scruggs in the shin. lotus "flowah" is more like a black widow spider or a mantis who will stick it to you while making love -- it's called sexual cannabilism: A male mantis approaches a female, flapping his wings and swaying his abdomen. Leaping on her back, he begins to mate. And quite often, she tears off his head. The female mantis devours the head of the still-mating male and then moves on to the rest of his body. [...] If you put a pair together and come back later, you’ll just find the wings of the male and no other evidence he was ever there.

  Super snarky, mean spirited outlet for the legal and political thoughts of self important and clearly biased far leftwingers. Poorly administrated portal for the satisfaction of the authors' unsatisfied narcissism. Not open to challenging commentary. I'm embarrased that someone I know recommended it to me.

  Excellent blog with a great mix of politics and culture. Humorous and intelligent. Has done a great job of offending (and occasionally running off) a small band of Mississippi bloggers who troll all sites in the state that don't share their radical-right views and then trash their owners. Great work finding and posting original documents. Long live Folo.

poor
  Sourced info from extreme leftwing blogs and pubs throughout the election. Minimal original info, commentary or intellect other than snarky Bush, McCain, Palin, Cheney, et.al. bashing. Little in the way of actual commentary on supported candidates (Dems) except for linking to the occasional bloggs and media outlets with fawning coverage of the "One". Redeming value in the coverage of court proceedings regarding the affair de Scruggs, but the bulk of the heavy lifting on this was done by a local and not the moderator. Gave good inside look at the inner workings of federal criminal proceeding by shining light on the roaches. After the bulk of the Scruggs imbroglio died down the sight went to junk. Many reg posters left(or were shunned by the mod for being too criticle of her thin skin).
