Check it out here.

Josh Marshall sums it up:
This website does not track you.
It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.
Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.
I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.
Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.

CBS News is hardly a friend of the Republicans or McCain. Yet on Friday, October 10, they had a report on suspected fraud involving ACORN. The report included:
“Joseph Borges, the registrar of voters in Bridgeport, Conn., says his office has been overwhelmed by bogus forms filled out with thousands of fake and duplicate names – two boxes alone packed with non-existent addresses – all submitted by ACORN.”
and…
“Whether simple error or outright fraud, the charges surrounding ACORN are already raising doubts about the integrity of the upcoming election in key parts of the country.”
The story can be found on the CBS News web site.
In an interview I heard on XM this morning, one individuals said he had signed 73 different voter registration cards for an ACORN operative.
I dare say if ACORN were a conservative or Republican organization registering voters who most likely favored McCain, you would have a different opinion of this activity. It doesn’t matter who does it or which end of the process it is – fraud is still fraud.
