Dr. Dean Comes to Birmingham

DNC Chairman Howard Dean visited Birmingham today for national party fundraising efforts. At this morning’s breakfast, Dean started off his remarks with a reference to the 2008 US Senate race.

Another Take on Cheney’s Visit

The majority of Cheney’s speech lauded the way President Bush and his administration has handled the situation in Iraq. Cheney also found room in his speech to promote the tax cuts to the wealthy that he and the president pushed (with the help of Sen. Sessions). No doubt the members of the crowd were appreciative–since […]

Dick Cheney Coming to Town

Jeff Sessions will be hosting Vice-President Dick Cheney today for an exclusive fundraiser at The Club in Birmingham.
The invitation-only luncheon, costing $1000 per attendee, will include a round-table discussion and photo-ops for the higher donors.
This event serves as just another indication that Jeff Sessions refuses to admit the failures of the Bush White House. But […]
