My Hardest Fast Ever

I’m fasting this week, not food or TV or beer or even the computer. I’m abstaining from work on one of my websites. I’ve got a site that most of you reading this already know about, PolFeeds. It syndicates news from Congress, the President, and the Presidential Campaigns, and with the election [...]

Bill Clinton Rocks the DNC

Having grown up in a Republican family, I was never a huge fan of Bill and Hillary Clinton.  Having since become a Democrat, I had come to like them quite a bit more.  I’ve been an Obama supporter from the beginning but didn’t have anything against Hillary Clinton as president.  However, by the end of [...]

Hillary Clinton Moves to Suspend the Rules and Nominate Barack Obama

Moments ago Hillary Clinton, while announcing the votes of the New York delegation, moved to suspend the rules of the Democratic National Convention and declare Barack Obama the Democratic Presidential nominee by acclamation, thus suspending the roll call vote. At an inflection point in this election when the Democratic party could either unite in [...]

Absurdity

A couple of days ago John McCain released an ad which states that Hillary Clinton is not Obama’s running mate because she spoke hard truths about Obama.
The ad is beyond absurd.  McCain is essentially invoking Hillary Clinton’s expertise in judging character and competency.  For years conservatives have blasted Hillary Clinton.  At one McCain campaign event, [...]

Joe Biden as Obama’s VP Candidate

[Update] The official announcement is here: http://polfeeds.com/item/Message-from-Barack-The-Next-Vice-President
News has recently leaked that Barack Obama has selected Senator Joe Biden (D-DE) as his Vice Presidential running mate.  I find this to be an incredibly interesting choice.
At age 29, Senator Biden was the youngest person ever elected to the U.S. Senate.  He turned 30 (the Constitutionally mandated [...]

Good Stuff Eatery

If you know me, you’ve probably heard me rave about one of DC’s newest restaurants, Good Stuff Eatery.  It was started by Spike, a contestant on Bravo’s Top Chef.  I’m a huge fan (of Good Stuff, not Top Chef), and I started a blog dedicated to reviewing their amazing burgers.  My goal is to review [...]

Like Little Children

Last night we had a bachelor party for my friend Devin.  Devin has always been one for goofy fun, so we kicked off the evening by going out to a field and playing a game of whiffleball (complete with ghost runners), but instead of a whiffleball and bat, we had a Louisville slugger and a [...]

A Quick Update

I just arrived in Chicago about an hour and a half ago, and I’ve got to take off at 5:45 for Minnesota to go to a friend’s wedding, so I’ve got to make this quick.  Devin is one of my best friends from college, and I’m looking forward to seeing him get married.  I’m also [...]

Practice, Practice, Practice

One of my goals for the next year is to start blogging more.  I’ve decided that one of my life goals is to write a book, and if I’m going to do that, I need to practice writing.  Lots of things come to me that I want to write about, but usually I either forget [...]
