Honestly, I’ve been less and less inclined to believe Rasmussen’s number over the past few months since they’ve shown extremely high negatives for Obama when no other polls were showing the same. And now we have Obama tied with Romney for 2012 after the President has made virtually no big missteps? Hmmm… Not only that, [...]
I haven’t been a big audiophile for a long time, but I will tell you, I love the services that ad supported streaming radio makes available to the listening public. I was in college during the heyday of Napster, and literally had a playlist that lasted four days long that I kept on a continual [...]
Good lord… So if you desert you should die? I understand being brought up on charges if you leave and then lie about it, which is possible what’s going on here, but the last time I heard anything about a court martial for deserting, the punishment didn’t include death.

With health care reform dominating the news cycle you may have missed the following story: A team of volunteers in Pakistan has set a new world record by planting more than half a million trees in one day. I like this story for several reasons: I like trees and it’s nice to read about people [...]
Hi. My name is Jacob and I’m honored to be posting here at Donklephant. I’ve been reading the blog for more than a year and can’t wait to see what the new writers bring. Personally, I was sucked in by the quality of the threads and the idea that there is a middle ground to [...]
He was the face of CBS Evening News for the better part of two decades and known as the most trusted man in America. Even his famous sign off, “And that’s the way it is,” speaks to the type of objectivity Cronkite seemed to value above all else. This brings up a broader question about [...]
Politico did some digging and the results reveal a Governor that is even more at odds with his public persona. Long story short, he definitely used taxpayer funds to go visit his mistress. More at True/Slant.
Now this is true free market capitalism if I’ve ever seen it. Apparently the American Conservative Union offered FedEx their support if they’d sign off on a costly outreach campaign. FedEx said no and the organization backed UPS. More at True/Slant.
