Obama Won’t End “Indefinite Detention” and No One’s Surprised but Progressives.

Posted: 21 Dec 2010 09:42 PM PST

Remember when Candidate Obama swore he’d close Guantanamo Bay and make sure we treated those terrorists incarcerated there in a way that would “restore the standards of due process and the core constitutional values that have made this country great even in the midst of war, even in dealing with terrorism”? Yeah, well, so much [...]

The Census Bureau released the results of the 2010 ennumeration and, from a political point of view, the GOP have to be pretty happy about the direction in which the population is moving. Seven states that voted Republican in the past three Presidential election picked up House seats and five that did not lost seats. [...]

Posted: 21 Dec 2010 12:04 PM PST

My plan last night was to wake up not long before 3 AM and catch a good chunk of the lunar eclipse, past totality (which is not terribly exciting viewing) into the unveiling of the moon from the Earth’s shadow (which is incredibly cool).
