SwampMaster;
The archives are nearly unusable.
Back in the old days if you selected say, November 2006 the user was presented with a sub-panel allowing the selection of an individual day. Then when the day was clicked, only that day was loaded.
This was fast and efficient.
Now, however, when a particular month is selected the entire month's postings are loaded.
Even with a high speed cable internet connection it takes a long time to load, and once loaded navigation is practically impossible.
Go back to the old way.

One for the billboard--
"And now the liberals want to stop President Reagan from selling chemical warfare agents and military equipment to Saddam Hussein, and why? Because Saddam allegedly gassed a few Kurds in his own country. Mark my words. All of this talk of Saddam Hussein being a war criminal or committing crimes against humanity is the same old thing - liberal hate speech. And speaking of poison gas, I say we round up all the drug addicts and gas them."
--Rush Limbaugh, November 3, 1988

There's so many news stories out there that The Swamp won't report: the investigation into Dem Congressmen Maxine Waters and Charles Rangle; how yet another Obama Treasury Department nominee withdrew his name; or the FBI raid on the office of Obama's new Intel Czar. But the best is the story of Obama's urban affairs czar getting freebie house remodelling from architects his NY Borough did business with:
"NEW YORK (AP) — Prosecutors are looking into why the new White House urban affairs director hasn't paid an architect for house designs made two years ago — the same time he recommended the architect for a lucrative city contract.
Adolfo Carrion, the former Bronx borough president, has said he would pay when he received the bill. But industry experts say the delay of payment is unusual.
"Normally after a project is completed, we get paid," said Chris Thomas, project manager and architect at AENArchitects in New York City. "I don't understand why he waited. That doesn't make sense."
It would be illegal for an elected official to accept renovation plans as a gift from an architect doing business with the city. And if Carrion pays less than fair-market value, his relationship with the architect, Hugo Subotovsky, would be a conflict of interest.:" (AP)
Fraud. You can believe in.
