This move by workers ended an assembly-workers’ strike that stopped production at western Washington Boeing plants for nearly two months.

Article defining ACORN for those who think Obama is clean-as-a-whistle, and don’t realize what constituted his “Community Organizer” career.

Senator Joe Biden was respectful to Governor Palin, consistently addressing her by her title.
Senator Obama, from the very first question in the presidential debate, never called Senator McCain anything but “John”. That’s a very cheeky thing to do on a public podium when you are a Junior Senator.

Senator Biden didn’t admit the well-known scientific fact that global warming is partially due to cyclical climate changes. He was obviously pandering to the Blame America First crowd.

There is a vicious ad in Español on the radio in Arizona, New Mexico, and Colorado. Sen. Obama’s voice comes on saying, in very bad Spanish, “Yo soy Barack Obama…y ha pruebo esta mensaje“–which isn’t correct Spanish–wrong verb, it speaks in the second person and uses the wrong tense! And this fellow condescendingly preaches [...]
