Well tomorrow is the big day. The right to complain about the jobs our elected officials are doing is gained by simply spending the 15 minutes it takes to vote. All the dissatisfaction with the war in Iraq, spending, partisanship is all moot if you don’t vote.
Tomorrow I will be voting against [...]

Politics - Heartland Style

In: Politics, bigotry

I’m in Indiana tonight and so I get to see a whole different type of political commercial - the heartland commercial.  A commercial for Dr. Tom Hayhurst (his site hides if he’s a Republican or Democrat - which means he’s a Republican).
So this commercial shows politicians that have gone wrong and says their sin - [...]

Good ole politics - Southern style

In: Politics, racism

We’re in the final stretch of the 2006 mid-term elections and there are some interesting stories about the new era of politics and elections here in the United States.

I can hear the conservative machine starting up right now. They have a fake issue to rally around come this election. The New Jersey State Supreme Court just ruled that same-sex couples have the same rights as mixed-gender couples.  I happen to agree with this but couldn’t the ruling have waited until November [...]

GOOD MORNING PHILADELPHIA!

In: Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Politics

My alarm clock can awake me to nature sounds, a CD, any radio station I want.  This morning, a Monday morning at that, I was awoken by the dulcet tones of Rick Santorum and Bob Casey Jr. in a debate on the local all news station KYW.  I know your jealous.  What a pair these [...]

It looks like Fox News is taking the term playing for the other team and using it in a different light when it comes to Mark Foley.  It seems that they’ve been accidentally labelling Foley as a democrat.

Obviously this was a mistake plain and simple. Republicans should be credited for their work tracking down Osama [...]

About this blog

Ostensibly A Rubber Door is about anything that's on my mind. Mostly that seems to be about politics, music, sports, and arguing with others about all of the above. I took the name of this blog from a Michael Penn song called Me Around. Check out Michael - he's about the best singer/songwriter there is.
