Linda Ketner has raised a little over $850, 000 on top of the $700,000 she has loaned/given to her campaign. Brown has raised around $760,000 for his reelection effort.

Let’s take a look at our tanking US economy for a moment and get to the bottom of the situation. We do not care that our problems are causing problems around the world, we really don’t care what outsiders such as Putin say about our situation. What we care about is who caused the problem.

We came across the video on the Drudge Report and became very very scared. This reminds us of Hitler’s Nazi youth movement. It is one thing to support the candidate of your choice, but to wear fatigues and uniforms and proclaim your support in a military style demonstration is kind of scary.
Is there an underground […]

When we read an article about BlackBerry addiction we kind of thought it was a joke, but we were sadly wrong. A study shows that 35% of executives would rather give up their spouse over their BlackBerry or PDA.

Let’s get it right this time and beat Vandy
September 4th, 2008 · 1 Comment
We hated to see the Gamecocks get ranked this week, it seems as soon as they get some national love they choke. The Gamecocks will be taking on Vandy tonight in what should be an easy win for USC. Vandy embarrassed the cocks last year and the team never recovered from the loss and loss […]
