I'm surprised given how many Californians are on this site that this hasn't been posted or being discussed.  The Governator has declared a state of emergency.  Every year California runs into to trouble passing the budget, but this year it's different, unemployment is at a 26 year high with those left employed seeing 10, 20, 25% salary reductions.

Raping of men, women and children at Abu Ghraib.

Retired Major Gen. Antonio Taguba is the second Filipino American to attain general officer rank in the U.S. Army. Taguba is best known for authoring the Taguba Report, an internal U.S. Army report on detainee abuse at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq, leaked and published in 2004. Taguba again made national headlines in June 2008, when he accused the Bush administration of committing war crimes, in a preface to a report by Physicians for Human Rights on prisoner abuse and torture in U.S. military prisons.

I may have missed something but I haven't seen anyone mention the latest developments with Lt. Ehren Watada.

With folks happy to call Obama the first "Asian American President" - one wonders if this is what you voted for?

It should be clear by now, to everyone who cares to wonder, that by "change", Obama's campaign promises meant "escalation".

In the midst of the worst economic collapse since the Great Depression, one wonders WHY?  Did YOU vote for this??
