Foxx Fire
As the editorial section of the post stated, “Few would have predicted in the awful days after Sept. 11, 2001, that just seven years later, members of Congress would actually be considering legislation to make the nation’s capital harder to protect.”

Pins and Needles
Submitted by J.Levi.Knapp on Fri, 05/16/2008 - 3:00pmThis last week and a half has been crazy. Trying to move forward but unsure how to proceed.

We need someone who will stand up for those voiceless interests rather than appealing to a blind allegiance to the White House’s misguided priorities in educational policy.

Foxx on Health Care

Clinton and Obama), Does it mean that’s he’s supporting the most liberal person in the Senate and the sixteenth most liberal person in the Senate? Is he throwing his hat in the ring with them?”
