While the days slowly get longer, here's a little something to chew on.

In November 'o8, we get a new president, but voters in New Jersey also vote for Senator. Which member of the GOP clowncar will take on the venerable Lautenberg? Anne Estabrook belches up this nugget. (Note to Anne: C'mon in!! The water's great! Try to spend as much as you can!)

What is of greater value: privacy rights or curbing AIDS? It's a really tough call IMHO. This pInky article points out some reasons why. Have a read and share your POV, won't ya?

Jon Bon Jovi for Governor? How about Senator? At any rate Jersey's second best rocker sure does seem to love his politics.

If ever there were a watertight argument for a veto-busting majority, THIS is it.

Looking for a good way to spend that Christmas cash, why not get yourself a union-made BlueJersey T-shirt? These purchases help us keep the lights on AND they look damn good, too! (Got a pic of yourself in the BlueJersey T? Leave it in the comments section!)

Tis the season to look back and examine NJ's roll inAmerican Revolutionary history. This week is Patriots week in Trenton with an amazing lineup of stuff going on in and/or around the Statehouse. This article suggests how tenuous that era was and -- goofy currents notwithstanding -- what might have been.

Governor Corzine wants ethics reform in the New Year.

What's your New Year's resolution? Was Santa good to you? Glad it's all over? There's one place to dish, and that's below!

privacy? (0.00 / 0)

We shouldn't provide a way to tell mothers that their newborns have HIV? We do tests and vaccines for various communicable diseases. The right of privacy is NOT absolute. That doesn't put us on a sliding slope to fascism, but is common sense for a functional society.
