With the Senate passing the HCR bill, the next step is to bat down the lies that the GOP continues to throw at liberals.

Lieberman’s lack of ethics is catching up to him… and John Stewart IS noticing!

What does a mid-midterm election mean for 2010 and 2012?

“You go into some of these small towns in Pennsylvania, and like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing’s replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton administration, and the Bush administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not.

In the last few weeks, health care has become a HUGE hot-button issue.  The absolute and outright lies coming from demonstrators have grown immensely in numbers.
This has been followed up by violence and death threats to liberal politicians.  I spoke to a friend about a month ago about the protests when they started and I predicted the violence would follow.  Health care is shaping up to be a something that the Right is willing to become violent over.  The lack of education on the current health care situation and the …

As my second year of teaching approaches, I’ve spent this whole summer reviewing my first year and my successes and failures.  I have thought about all the pedagogical triumphs and all the poor management decisions I made last year.  For better or for worse, I have a year under my belt.  I have cherished my first year in my chosen career and I look forward to the next 20 to 30 years of passion for my life as an educator.

The intent of TUP is to take a look at the national state of our nation.  The lack of systematic transparency in politics is a focal point of our mission and we earnestly look for and celebrate those who follow the same path as ours.
Keeping that in mind, we proudly congratulate our new friends at Transparent CCU.
