• Enclave: It's clear to me from this research that if you want a stronger economy that includes job creation, you have to run with Democratic Presidents. All of the conservative campaign rhetoric that moderate-leaning-left administrations will destroy American jobs is unsubstantiated in this research.
• Fletch: Seagull Contrail PLUS: Still Life
• KnoxViews: You can look up your bank or credit union at the following links to a) make sure they are insured, and b) check their financial statements and ratio reports, which are a quick snapshot of their performance.

• Resonance:: What will it take to instill in our elected leaders a sufficient sense of urgency to act? $160/barrel oil? $180? $200? Whatever it is, it will come too late.
• RoaneViews: Lincoln's Republican opponent, Whatshisname, doesn't live in our district and won't be our next Congressman.
• Russ McBee: Not surprisingly, the EPA intends to stonewall the issue long enough to avoid taking any action until after Bush leaves office; nevertheless, it's astonishing that the EPA has finally dropped its hostility to nearly universal scientific consensus. PLUS: The phantom promise of offshore drilling
• Nashville for the 21st Century: Congress-stakes: If A) Obama wins, and B) he offers Cooper a cabinet position, and C) he accepts...who would run for the open seat?

Its not fair that these same bloggers get promoted by tennviews. All you do is promote yourselves and each other. I have browsed these blogs and I see absolutely nothing outstanding about any of them.
ReplyDeleteThe most prominent thing about them is the utter lack of original thinking. What is so great about being a Tim Robbins type who can do nothing but mimic left wing propaganda that is self serving and comes from a bunch of Jews/Liberals moneybags out of the Northeast?
Why shouldn't we have people who are original and who represent OUR interests and traditional American values? If you were original you wouldn't get the stamp of approval from the status quo. You'd be too dangerous to their vested interests.
Congratulations for being lowbrow, predictable and useless.
