To borrow a Barack Obama line, "There's not a liberal America and a conservative America, there's a United States of America." That's true -- and everyone in it tried to make a quick buck off the housing bubble. Since Ronald Reagan, Republicans have demonized government oversight as a liberal plot to dampen the animal spirits of America's entrepreneurs. Let the ...

Amid $135 oil, it ought to be an easy, bipartisan victory to lift the political restrictions on energy exploration and production. A couple of points: *Total US proven oil reserves are something close to 20 billion barrels. The US uses 7.5 billion barrels a year. Even if all the proven reserves could be produced all immediately at the same time, it wouldn't be a solution to the problem...

Hiya Duck, Was it to woo the base? It surely wasn't to entice Hillary supporters, Palin's positions are diametrically opposite anything from any of the Dem's. Yes to the first and you'd be surprised to the second. Jedi posted a link to PUMA (I think it was www.puma08.com ) and I read it for the first time today.
