| Isn't it time to start impeachment of Bush?
Also what are you talking about when you say "Why can't you far right wing loonies get over Clinton?" If you actually took the time to READ my post to Maureen you would have seen I pointed out no impeachment charges could be brought for the reasons she listed, but did give several examples of real charges he could be charged with. That's the problem with this country, everyone is so tied to their party lines their brain seems to have a malfunction and assume EVERYONE is out to get them, when in fact I am for ridding our elected positions from ALL criminals (Bush and Clintons alike.) So don't be so quick to judgements, especially when you are not sure of what's going on. This is how BAD decisions are made. " .
Google signs on MySpace to networking platform
WEB search leader Google has signed on MySpace, the world's largest social network, to its platform for allowing outside developers to write programs for social Web sites. The addition of MySpace gives the Google platform greater strength against fast-growing Facebook, which opened up its site to developers in May and has since seen its user base grow to more than 48 million people. Google and MySpace said on Thursday they had been working together on the project for more than a year. MySpace, which is owned by News Corp, has some 110 million users worldwide. Google unveiled its OpenSocial platform earlier this week, saying it would give outside developers tools to write programs for any of its social network partners. Google had already disclosed that social networks such as LinkedIn and Friendster had joined the program, as well as some of the biggest independent developers on Facebook.

CATA's crossroad Riders may face service cuts, route changes in wake ...
CATA's budget is paid primarily through its millage ($12 million), state subsidies ($9.2 million), and fares ($4.2 million). Randy Schaetzl, a CATA rider and professor of geography at MSU, voted for the CATA millage in November and said he would vote for it again. But he thinks CATA should seek out other revenue sources, such as advertising. "I would hope that they would be strongly considering that (advertising) along with other revenue sources they'll have to tap," he said. But CATA has a policy against using advertising on its buses and shelters, said Board Chairwoman Patricia Munshaw. The thinking behind the policy is to "maintain a positive image for the organization," she said. "It's uncluttered," she said. "It just presents a more professional looking image." But CATA may take another look at advertising given its current situation, Kuhnmuench said.
WENDY ALEXANDER: Claims to have been 'vindicated'
Wendy Alexander claimed to have been "vindicated"after the Electoral Commission decided not to call in the police over the illegal donation to her Labour leadership campaign fund. But the Scottish Labour leader, whose campaign team admitted the donation broke the law, last night expressed "deep regret" that the money was ever accepted. "This has been a salutary and bruising experience," she said, admitting mistakes had been made. .
Perry Brown: Sali's vote shows lack of compassion for uninsured ...
Congress recently once again failed to stand up for children. On Jan. 23, U.S. Rep. Bill Sali joined with 151 other U.S. representatives to uphold President Bush's veto of legislation that would have provided health care coverage for millions of children across the United States, including 12,479 children in our own state (2005 census), who have no health insurance at all. For these million-plus families across the United States, the new year doesn't bring new opportunities. For them, 2008 is beginning to look a lot like 2007. Sali's vote to uphold the veto, means these families - our neighbors, our children's friends - will continue to hope daily that their children won't become ill or get injured, and that even a minor illness won't spiral their family into financial disaster.Just today, I cared for an uninsured child whose family could not afford asthma medications that cost $100 per month; as a result of not having these medications, the child is now hospitalized, at the cost of several thousand dollars.
