PlanetPOV will host a live chat at 8:00 am PST this morning to accompany President Barack Obama's inauguration for his second term. All PlanetPOV members are invited to join us for this fun and live discussion on this historic day.

The Weeper of the House and the effort by those in his caucus to make him cry.

When it comes to being tone deaf and tone blind and tone dumb, the Repub's have cornered the market in 2012.

Karl Rove: "Hold on, I think it's far too early to say that the Titanic sunk. I have been refreshing my news browser and there is still 3% of the Titanic that is not below water so I find it quite curious and premature to declare that the Titanic has sunk."

Today we'll host a live chat beginning at 4:00 pm PST while this post serves as an open thread for Election Day discussion. Should be quite a day and night...especially for Obama supporters!

Something interesting happened in 2007.  A little-known US Senator from Illinois cast his hat into the ring on a frosty day in Springfield,IL.  I watched that speech that day, and while I was moved by his words and passion, my own cynicism led me to mutter “good luck buddy” when he was finished, the deck was so stacked against him.

keeping in mind that today is the MSM's bachelor party for propaganda, their last chance to go wild and have irresponsible intercourse with the public, it may be a good day to stay away from these crazed and desperate channels and spend the day with a good book...or ballot info.

When given a choice between progressive American community values and the values of extreme individualism and greed, progressive values appear to have the upper hand.

As this democratic version of national waterboarding comes to a close, it's a good time to reflect on the many moments we've shared together as Americans. Especially all of the mistakes of the candidates, the pundocracy and the Mainstream Media in general.
