This blog will focus on political images I have found all around the Internet, though I will intersperse some commentary and quotes that I find interesting.

When you think Obama may not be doing the job you want, just remember this...
President George W. Bush has made unprecedented claims of executive power. He has asserted, for example, that the president may imprison foreign nationals and American citizens without judicial process and may hold such persons incommunicado. In rejecting these claims in 2004, Justice Sandra Day O'Connor wrote for the Supreme Court, "History and common sense teach us that an unchecked system of detention carries the potential to become a means for oppression.

Woman is man's slave.
Many who claim to believe that the Bible is the inerrant word of God have never bothered to read it.

Oh yeah - I forgot that this happened
"The president does not know him, nor does the president recall ever meeting him."
-White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan, about Jack Abramoff, the high-powered lobbyist who touched off the largest Republican bribery scandal in the history of Congress.
Time magazine soon produced five photographs of Abramoff and his clients meeting the president on different occasions. Abramoff helped raise more than $100,000 for Bush's 2004 re-election campaign. He is now serving six years in prison and is cooperating with the FBI investigations of members of Congress and the Bush administration.

Usenet shutting down
The Usenet, a sort of alternative branch of the WWW on the information super highway, is shutting down...
The reason I post this here is that I get a LOT of the images that I post on this site from the Usenet. I don't think there are many who use the system anymore, but I for one will miss it. I haven't heard anything about a replacement - but the possibility exists. There are several large, for-profit companies who aggregate and store the data from the Usenet - maybe they'll join forces to keep it going - or maybe Google will do something to mimic the system.
Otherwise it will take a lot more time to pool enough political images to create a post or two.
Duke University in North Carolina is where Usenet began, and today the institution is shutting down its Usenet server. The college cites "low usage and rising costs" for the decision.
