'Verizon Reverses Itself on Abortion Messages'Saying it had the right to block “controversial or unsavory” text messages, Verizon Wireless last week rejected a request from Naral Pro-Choice America, the abortion rights group, to make Verizon’s mobile network available for a text-message program.
Verizon Blocks Messages of Abortion Rights Group (September 27, 2007) But the company reversed course this morning, saying it had made a mistake.
“The decision to not allow text messaging on an important, though sensitive, public policy issue was incorrect, and we have fixed the process that led to this isolated incident,” Jeffrey Nelson, a company spokesman, said in a statement...

Congress fiddles while Iraq burns
Okay, can't help myself. Yes, I'm screaming!! Yes, I'm swearing again!! BUT ... HOW FUCKIN' STUPID ARE ALL THE RETHUGS!?! It's scary to think these kind of people are running our country!!
Dear MoveOn member,
They didn't condemn Vice President Cheney when he falsely connected Al Qaeda to Saddam Hussein.
They didn't condemn Colin Powell when he lied about WMD to the United Nations.
They didn't condemn President Bush when he started eavesdropping on American citizens without a warrant.
They didn't condemn President Bush and the Republicans when they attacked Sen. John Kerry's war record.
They didn't condemn Sen. Saxby Chambliss when he ran ads comparing triple-amputee and war hero Max Cleland to Osama bin Laden.
They still haven't done enough to slow this dreadful war or protect our troops.
But a few hours ago, your representative voted in the House to join the Senate in condemning a MoveOn.org newspaper ad.

Bush has nothing to offer sick children
Republicans reacted angrily yesterday to President Bush's promise to veto a bill that would renew and expand the popular State Children's Health Insurance Program, raising the likelihood of significant GOP defections when the package comes to a vote next week.
"I'm disappointed by the president's comments," said Sen. Charles E. Grassley (R-Iowa), who urged Bush, in an early-morning telephone conversation yesterday, to support the emerging bipartisan compromise. "Drawing lines in the sand at this stage isn't constructive. . . . I wish he would engage Congress in a bill that he could sign instead of threatening a veto."
"I'm very, very disappointed," said Sen. Gordon Smith (R-Ore.). "I'm going to be voting for it."
