Welcome to my Republican Neighborhood

Several sites have mentioned that when Bobby Jindal gave the Republican rebuttal to Obama’s Congressional address last night, he sounded like the clueless hillbilly Kenneth the Page from 30 Rock.

Bush appointees having trouble finding jobs

According to an article in the Wall Street Journal, the roughly 3,000 political appointees of the Bush administration are having trouble finding jobs. How much trouble?  Roughly twice as much difficulty as similar appointees from the administrations of Bush I, Reagan, or even Clinton. This is ironic for so many reasons. Why does nobody want […]
