Disgraced former president Joseph Estrada has announced the possibility that he may run for the office of president again come the 2010 elections. “If the opposition will not unite, that will be my last option—I might run,” said the man who was president of the Philippines from 1998 to 2001 when he was deposed in a [...]

The Obama campaign has set up a pretty little site listing all the defamatory mailings, robocalls and push-polls the Republicans have been running against them this year. Take a look at it here. At risk of reading this backwards, let's just ignore the robocalls themselves for a minute (plenty of time to get angry about that later). What's really interesting about this site? First, the financial r

The schism that slices through America today has been widening since the 19th century. Little by little, decade-by-decade, year-by-year it has continued to get ever wider and ever deeper. It has nothing to do with geography. It has nothing to do with slavery… and, yet, it has everything to do with slavery.

According to the AP Obama and Clinton agreed to a water-downed vote to nominate Clinton. It is entirely possible that Clinton will even halt the vote at some point, and recommend that all delegates back Obama.

Stan Rosenthal draws attention to an overlooked aspect of the war in Iraq - what Iraqis actually think. He links a BBC poll from mid February that was published last Monday (graphics).55 per cent believe their lives to be good, compared with 39 per cent in August 2007. Sunni Iraqis are the least happy, with just 33 per cent believing their life to be good. Shia Iraqis were more positive with 62 per cent happy, and 73 per cent of Kurds also reported themselves to be happy. All groups have become happier over the last six months.Optimism about the future has also increased, with 45 per cent believing things will get better - an increase from 29 per cent in August 2007. Pessimism has unsurprisingly fallen, with 19 per cent believing things will get worse. However, 70 per cent of Sunni Iraqis

During her interview with Louis Villarrubia, Mary Richardson quoted from Fr. Feeney's publication The Point:Mary Richardson: "'Jews, as an organized force, are the implacable declared enemies of Christianity: Its tenets, its traditions, its moral code, its very culture.' Do you believe that?"To which Louis Villarrubia responded, "As I said, our interest in the Jews is the same as our interest in Methodists, Presbyterians, um Hindus, Muslims...to bring them to the true faith. That is our interest."Mary Richardson pressed on: "But if Fr. Feeney is your hero, do you repudiate what he said here? Did he say this at a different time? Was this wrong?And Mr. Villarrubia replied, "I think you're getting the idea that what we really hold is that somehow.. um.. Jews as Jews are bad people."Notice how Mr. Villarrubia evades answering Mary Richardson's rather specific question? Instead of providing her with an honest response as to whether or not he repudiates Fr. Feeney's anti-Semitic articl

Andrew Anthony's The Fall-Out has created a wide debate at Comment is Free asking just what happened to liberal values? Will Hutton provides an interesting commentary on Anthony's position, noting that there are significant liberal thinkers who are mostly ignored:In fairness Anthony sometimes recognises such complexity, but throughout the book his default position reasserts itself. He has been brave to subject himself doubtless to some withering responses; and some of what he says needs saying over and over. But if you are to criticise liberalism, you need to know what its best advocates - Brian Barry, Amartya Sen, John Rawls, Cass Sunstein, Charles Taylor, Ronald Dworkin - are saying and debating rather than a select band of leftist (rather than liberal ) columnists; and then have some concrete ideas about how to solve the dilemmas you raise.The complexity of liberalism is certainly an important factor, not least because 'liberalism' can describe a host of different political ideo

You all might have heard of age old saying that there is strength in unity.It is interesting that the validity of this statement is applicable to repayment of loans also. We all find ourselves caught in debt trap at some point of time or other and getting out of this situation requires debt mangement. So, here that old age saying again comes into the picture,lets see how , you may well find that you've got debts littered all over you have credit cards bills, a car loan, an overdraft and a house payment . No wonder it's been hard work keeping track of your spending, all you have to do is to unite them all. A secured debt consolidation loan brings together or consolidates various debts and multiple payments . These are then repaid with one loan, one monthly installment, one loan lender and low interest rates. This means, that if you have several monthly payments or a number of different loans, you can make things easier by consolidating them and taking one single loan to pay off the t

Is the grass always greener on the other side, or do you just not see the green you are in?There are days I am so tired, tired of being a mom. Toys that are left on the floor, seem like such a big burden. Spilled milk I could literally cry over, because it's the millionth time. No matter how good or bad I do, the same stuff happens day in and out. It's a battle to keep up, to stay ahead. It's a battle to smile every time they are being silly or calling each other silly names like poo poo head or something, in which I do not condone, but don't stop it either, until they continue on and on about how they will squeeze each others head off and poop will fly. There are days I loathe being the "servant" No matter how much I love to serve, and be the one who does it all, I want my own damn butler server person too. I cook 4 meals a day most days, breakfast lunch and dinner for the kids and sometimes me. Then the 4th meal for G at midnight when he gets home, if we didn't really have enoug

Well the last time I looked at a Sony blog, it was with mouth open wide in disbelief as the ill conceived and executed ‘All I want for Xmas is a PSP’ fake blog hit the blogosphere and was in turn hit by it. Things have moved on and, over the past two months, Sony has launched two new blogs for different parts of their business: one is the Sony Playstation blog aimed fairly and squarely at game players and developers of the Playstation product range; the second is the Sony Electronics blog from that arm of the company which intends to focus on “Electronics-related activities, products and customers in the U.S.”. Two very different blogs, aimed at different audiences and done in very different ways but both ostensively Sony corporate blogs.

By Jorge SeguraSoldier Field was rocking very early in the year and it wasn't a Bears pre-game. The historic field was the venue for the Gold cup final between our very own national team and Mexico's national team. This is the first time this stadium is played host to a Gold Cup Final. About 62,000 fans witnessed the U.S. national team lift the Gold Cup trophy today in Chicago. Last year the Gold cup final was held at Giants Stadium in East Rutherford N.J. The stadium was divided due to the large following Mexico has in Chicago. Next year's venue has yet to be decided, but hopefully it will be a great success like this final at Soldier Field.Related:The U.S. defends their Gold Cup title successfully

Mrs. Edwards At Odds With Husband -She's Completely Comfortable With Gay MarriageElizabeth Edwards, starring at the kickoff event of San Francisco's Gay Pride Parade, came out in support of legalized same-sex marriage Sunday -- taking a position that she acknowledged is at odds with her husband, presidential candidate John Edwards."I don't know why somebody else's marriage has anything to do with me," she said. "I'm completely comfortable with gay marriage."Edwards' comments came after her keynote address before a standing-room-only breakfast attended by 300 people at the Alice B. Toklas Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Democratic Club, a key organization in the powerful gay political base in San Francisco.The appearance by the candidate's wife -- witnessed by many local politicians, including Mayor Gavin Newsom, District Attorney Kamala Harris and City Attorney Dennis Herrera -- was hailed as a milestone in the 30-year history of the Gay Pride event, which had never been visite

… has another Carnival of Divided Government.

Throughout the course of this journal, and correspondingly throughout a fair portion of my life, I have spent a lot of time complaining about the makeup of the small Midwestern town in which I found myself living. Specifically, that this makeup was made up of precisely one type of person. However, now is probably as good a time as any to concede that, while it might have seemed this way, it wasn't entirely true. My town wasn't as monotone as I've lead you to believe, in fact it was split into two distinct camps. Camps which, quite frequently, hated each other more than words could say, but which were also grudgingly forced to admit that the town couldn't survive without them. Being new to America it took me a while to see this divide, and a while more to appreciate what it meant, but once I understood about it a lot of things began to make sense. A History lesson In order to understand how this situation came about, you need to know a little bit about the town's history. In th

As usual, for my limited mind the juxtaposition between a fluff piece; the intent

Barack Obama stood on the steps of the old capital in Springfield, for the same reason Abraham Lincoln once did, to announce his candidacy for president of the Republic.Part of this was to highlight that the first Republican president had as little experience as does the Senator. But of course he wished to invoke the ghost of the mythical president. And he threw out one of his most famous quotes, about a house divided against itself cannot stand.In 1860 the country was torn by partisan and ideological polarizations which everyone knew would eventually rip the nation apart. The railroad attorney promised a new brand of politics that would unite us. The Bismark of America did unite us, with a no opt-out constitutional amendment, written in blood. Besides eliminating the shame of institutional slavery, the War Between the States was the dawn of the ascendancy of industrial monied interests over agrarian values.After the war, the Republican Party quickly ejected the radicals, who believed
