Is There Any News Out There? Not On Immigration Reform and Border Security

I'm still avoiding cable news. The time expended watching the latest round of chattering heads on the topic of the day as determined by someone who thinks I might be remotely interested in flogging away at right wing talking points, is better spent online finding out what's behind all the blather. For example, there's the " Immigration Debate ." Heaven help us this has been pretzeled into an alm...

NV-Sen: No hyperbole, Sharron Angle (R) opposes ALL education

Wow . In 2003, the Nevada legislature enacted a budget which did not include education funding, on the theory that they would take up a second bill which ensured that the public schools could remain open when the school year began. Because the Nevada Constitution requires both a balanced budget and the state to fund education, this second bill would include a combination of tax increases an...
