We support President Obama, but we cannot support the escalation of George Bush's war in Afghanistan. Congress, not the President, decides how our tax dollars are spent. After 8 years, nearly 5,300 U.S. lives, and $3 trillion, it's time to bring our troops safely home from Afghanistan and Iraq. Tell Congress to vote against any funds for these wars, except to bring our troops safely home. http://www.democrats.com/jobs-not-wars...

By Felicia Sonmez The issue differences between the four Dems came into clearer contrast tonight in a wide-ranging debate that touched on financial regulation, the Patriot Act, transparency, Afghanistan, Pres. Obama 's Nobel prize and even the unfolding Tiger Woods drama. But it was the topic of health care reform that drew the testiest exchanges among the four hopefuls vying for the seat of the late...

The State of Massachusetts has a special election for the Senate coming up, and seems poised to contribute the 'benefit' of another Ted Kennedy to our nation's Senate.

When there's four candidates running to be the next Ted Kennedy, it's certainly understandable that the choice should be difficult. For the record, this is the first major race in which I have purposefully tried to stay uninvolved in a long time, wanting to glimpse this race like a regular voter -- instead of in a campaign role or as a volunteer.
