Shortly after the State of the Union address, several congressional web sites apparently attacked by Brazillian hackers. Among the group of 26 members of the house whose sites were hacked was our own Harry Mitchell. According to the site Praetorian Prefect (Ford’s brother, I guess), the sites were hacked by a group called Red Eye [...]
As it happens, there was a resolution in the United States House of Representatives honoring Real Salt Lake for winning MLS Cup this year over the Los Angeles Galaxy. The resolution was sponsored by Democrat Jim Matheson. There is also a similar resolution in the United States Senate, but for reasons that are typically obscure [...]
Readers will remember that Ben Beuhler-García ran an ad that mirrored an ad that Bill Richardson ran during his presidential run. It is helpful to remember that neither Beuhler-García nor Richardson won.

The National Journal has released their 2008 Vote Ratings. The results are really no surprise, but after the jump are the ratings for the Arizona delegation, broken up by “issue categories”. I’ll post the Senate ratings later.
Greg Patterson used one of my posts to crow about how we Democrats are in dissarray, figuring I suppose that this means that the State Republican Party under Randy Pullen is a well oiled political machine that rivals the old Federal Ring in its grip over the civic life in our state.
But, he and other triumphant Republicans would do [...]
