How government can regain its capacity to manage the oil spill

June 14, 2010 By dave-from-hvad

Why is this?  Have we, in fact, become a “hollow state” in which public agencies have little ability left to do anything other than rubber stamp corporate activities, many of which seem irresponsible if not … [Read more...]

Beyond reason.

May 17, 2010 By Mr. Lynne

Riddle me this: In what universe can the monumental and historic environmental disaster in the gulf make you more likely to support off shore drilling? In a GOP universe. Public Policy Polling: 28% of Republicans said the recent oil spill … [Read more...]

National Tragedy Demands Real Response

May 10, 2010 By heather-taylormiesle-nrdc-action-fund

Watching BP

May 8, 2010 By liveandletlive

Will BP try to raise the price of gas in order to recoup the cost of the mess they created?  It seems they could be trying.   In an earlier post about abusive corporate practices, I noted that the price of gas at our local BP … [Read more...]

How much time have you spent in #Cambridge, Massachusetts? If I had not commented on the Sayed Faisal case, would you have done it? Be honest, @rasheednwalters. #mapoli

Rasheed N. Walters @rasheednwalters

In the People’s Republic of #CambridgeMA politicians, comrade citizens, and far left activists expect a officer to not defend themselves against a man charging at them with a Kukri Knife which is akin to a machete. These people are insane! They all wanted that officer to die!
