One More Article - A MUST READ!

The Democratic Party's agenda is finally in print. Extra special Ushanka.us thanks to the Wall Street Journal's editorial board.

The Non-Contract With America: What Democrats aren't saying about their agenda, so we will.

WSJ: America has been waiting years for this agenda. Please consider re-printing in a weekday edition.

Our First Week

What a fun first week!

We achieved 93% up-time in week one. Our site was offline for a 12-hour period. Numerous calls to our hosting service included one help desk person telling us Ushanka.us is not hosted with their company, and many others scratching their heads to the point of festering, oozing head wounds. Had they been wearing ushankas, none of this would have happened. We wish them all a speedy recovery.

Ushanka.us' hosting issues are Bush's fault. It is his cowboy tax cuts that put the US economy on such a fast-growth trajectory. With 4.6% un-employment, there are people working today that shouldn't be working...

Survey #1 shows that of the family and friends that made up the site's visitors in week one, two are either smartasses or closet commies. We'll smoke 'em out McCarthy style, don't worry.




Last... Maybe because it is election season, or maybe this is the norm, but of all the political headlines the site captures, nearly all are biased! This is a surprise even for Karl, a true believer of Communist infiltration in America's newsrooms. Karl posts about 3% of captured headlines and discards the rest. Another 3% could be considered journalistic mistakes that convey a pro-democracy spin, and about another 5% could be characterized as objective. In short - Ushanka.us visitors are voting and commenting on the most biased of them all.

Thanks to everybody who have helped us launch this fun project! And, keep your eyes out for the site's first guest blogger.

Overheard at the Office


MAL: I hope we can remain friendly after the election.

MWC: Of course. I'm going to be happy on Nov 8th regardless.

MAL: Even if the Democrats take over?

MWC: Yep. Americans need to be reminded what the Democrats stand for. Then we sweep in 08.

MAL: You grew up in a Democratic era. They were in charge for most of your life. There is a long line of great Democrats - [walking away] FDR, Truman...even Clinton.

MWC: Clinton was a Republican. Do me a favor - show me a Democrat today that can drop a nuke.

MWL: So I hear we're changing course.

MWC: No more cowboy diplomacy?

MAL: [walking in] You're missing the news conference.

MAL: [sitting down] It's more of the same.

MWC: Wait a minute. He just said we're changing course. Which is it?

MWL: Well, there's a timetable now.

MAL: Just rheteric.

MWL: Such a moron.

MWC: What should he be saying?

MWL: That 'I made a mistake.' That 'I'm stepping down.'

MWC: So Cheney steps in. What would you want him to do?

MWL: Be a lame duck for two years.

MWC: Seriously.

MWL: He'd probably stay [in Iraq].

Overheard at the Office



MWC: Do you think the North Koreans really tested a nuke?

MWL: I don't think so.

GWC: I've been out of the news for two weeks.

MWL: So you don't know who the next UN General Secretary is?

MWL: It is a South Korean. And, the Olympics are coming up in Beijing...

MWC: Ahh. A little triangulation on North Korea?

MWL: Yes.

MWC: So GWC, if you haven't seen the news in two weeks, there is one thing you didn't miss.

GWC: Ya?

MWC: The Democrats didn't announce their agenda yet.

GWC: They never will.

MWC: Was North Korea threatening the US? What would happen if they declared? Would Kim stand at the shore and shake his fist at us?

WWL: It would be like 1953 all over again.

MWC: Really? We'd send troops against a million-man army?

MWL: Think they'd bomb South Korea? Japan?

MWC: To draw us into a war? That's all they can do. But to what end? They'd be destroyed.
