Stimulus?

Today the Senate passed a $170 billion stimulus package in the face of a possible recession. A portion of this package is a tax rebate program that gives families anywhere between $300 to $1200. The whole point of these rebates is to encourage spending and increasing consumer confidence. It’s funny to me […]

James Dobson is bummin’

Here is his statement on why he will not support John McCain. Money quote:

“I’m deeply disappointed the Republican Party seems poised to select a nominee who did not support a Constitutional amendment to protect the institution of marriage, who voted for embryonic stem cell research to kill nascent human beings, who opposed tax cuts […]

Stockholm Super Tuesday

I’m sitting in our dressing room here at tonight’s venue in Stockholm. Thankfully, I am getting some wifi love so I’m able to watch the various t.v. coverage of the days events with my Slingbox setup.

I am very sad that I was not able to attend this rally. I’m currently traveling in Europe so I was curious from […]

Daily Show Writers Cover the SOTU

Check it out here. I didn’t get to see the speech. That’s probably a good thing. I’m sure it would have kept me up and right about now, jet lag is hitting me hard.

Brussels…and it’s only the beginning….

Today begins a 6 week trip through Europe for me and my friends. It’s going to be quite a journey. Berlin, Oslo, Dublin, Milan and many places in between. These kinds of trips are bitter sweet. While I get to make a living traveling the world and playing music, I have […]
