About the Author
This group is dedicated to those of us who support the work Howard Dean has done for our party with his 50 state strategy.
We must realize that there is a segment of our party that seeks to remove Dean, and we must fight to keep him as chair!!

Here in Kentucky's First Congressional District, our candidate Heather Ryan is really beginning to turn some heads. It all started at the Ruby Laffoon Dinner a couple of months ago, and has been building through to Fancy Farm weekend, where she fired up Democrats at the breakfast, and then took it to Republicans in the heat of Fancy Farm.

At Ryan for Kentucky, we believe that the playing field has been tilted against working families for far too long. My whole life, it seems that war has been waged on union workers and workers attempting to form new unions. I have witnessed this personally in a union fight. Although initially, 80% of the workers at our warehouse signed on to become union, the long process allowed the company to come in and "behind the scenes" peel off these votes. How? By turning worker against worker. Promising promotion of certain workers, and higher wages and more benefits if the union failed. Read More »
Exxon Ed Whitfield has been trying to clean up his voting record for this election year. He knows it is a bad year for Republicans, and that he has been a shameless enabler of every failed policy of the Bush Administration. All the election year scuffling to clean up his record cannot hide the fact that he has been a constant, bitter opponent to reform of our healthcare system, and of providing equal access to those in poverty as those with wealth to healthcare. Lets look at some of Exxon Eddie's votes to limit the access of healthcare to working Americans. Read More »
I will make an admission. I don't want anyone to think that here at Ryan for Kentucky we are not fair. Our Congressman, Exxon Ed Whitfield, besides supporting Big Oil, Energy, and their record profits has managed to do a little good. Yes, Exxon Eddie has managed to be a defender of horses. Now, at Ryan for Kentucky, we love animals too, and applaud Whitfield for being a defender of horses. But, we must ask, what about the PEOPLE? Read More »
Happy Independence Day everyone!! Today our nation celebrates it's Declaration of Independence from the British Empire. After much sacrifice from that generation, our nation would go on to become the first that was built upon the liberal ideals of the Enlightenment. Our nation would become a bastion of freedom, and the "city on the hill" for the world to aspire to. Read More »
Americans are celebrating Independence Day today at home and abroad, It is a day to celebrate the Independence America won from England, much the same as India celebrates next month on the fifteenth. Yet for me Independence Day is not July 4th, it is January fifteenth for that is the day George Bush, Dick Cheney and all of their lap dogs leave office. Eight years of Hell my country and the world has suffered from these con artists, liars, arrogant and self indulgent distortions of leadership.

Read More »It seems we are always complaining. No matter how hard we work, and how many we get elected, it seems that our ideals are always the ones that are being compromised. One need only look at the FISA compromise to feel that grassroots Democrats are just running around in circles. We need Democrats in Congress who will fight for us, even if it means breaking with conventional wisdom, and party leadership. Read More »
OBAMA: Santa Cruz County, AZ is a group of like minded supporters who believe that it is essential to elect Barack OBAMA the next President of these United States of America. Barack OBAMA will lead this country back to prosperity, our hopes will become realities, and America will once again be a respected neighbor and a beacon for freedom. Gender, race, and religion will be replaced with Nature, peace and opportunity. America will be respected worldwide for the ideals it represents and lives by rather than bending and breaking the principles this country was founded on.

I am wondering if we should make a name for these distortions that keep popping up. Sure they are fear mongering and we know that is a Republican trademark. But while I would call them outright lies; would a objective Republican? Outright lies may be what they are, but for the sake of balance they must be more than a white lie, because there is nothing innocent about promoting misinformation. Would we call it a fib? Perpetual disillusion? Misinformation and subterfuge? A crock of crapola? Anyone have any ideas? Lets look at one example. Read More »
I must take my leave for the evening due to the fact the lovefest starts in 4 pledged delegates or when the polls close.
I would like to remind the gentlemen of the site not to get too excited when hugging the elegant little old ladies that frequent our happy home. So much love, so much togetherness and oneness of purpose. It is simply too much for me to handle. I am afrid I would shed tears of joy and embarass myself .
Please remember not to shake up the champagne as someone's eye can be taken out as the cork pops. Do save me a piece of the double chocolate cake please.
Finally, please remember that Kum by Yah sounds much better with your arms interlocked and softly in candlelight...Tata and have fun !

First and foremost I wanted to thank those that took their valuable time to post on the three Blogs I removed. It really is not fair of me to do that, but I was guilty on two of being overzealous. The third had an lousy comment in the form a personal attack aimed at a Democratic lady. Therefore, I decided discretion was the better part of valor and deleted. Read More »
I know many people haven't heard of Ed Whitfield, Congressman from Kentucky's First Congressional District. He has kept a low-profile and has few accomplishments to show for it. Despite this, Ed Whitfield has quietly amassed a record of rubber-stamping President Bush and the Republican leadership in all their failed glory. Read More »
This summer, President George W. Bush will smile while jaunting up the stairs to Air Force One - his laughable presidency all but over - with not a care in the world.
For 13 hours, he'll lie on a couch in the airplane, drink pomegranate-flavored water and watch reruns of Texas Rangers games from the glory days of Nolan Ryan and Jose Canseco
Eventually, he'll land in Beijing, China, for the 2008 Summer Olympics. He'll pose and smile for photos with great Chinese leaders.
You'll definitely read about it in the newspaper, and so will people just like you all over the world; and you'll probably feel pretty good when you do. Like a bottle of cheap gin the whole globe can pass around, the Olympics somehow make it okay to forget for a little while.
This is helpful for most of us, but somewhat unfortunate for the Tibetan people, whose struggle against occupation has gone on for nearly 60 years
In 1951, the Chinese government annexed Tibet and declared it part of China. In 1959, an uprising resulted in the expulsion of the Dalai Lama; since that time he has run a "government in exile" based in India and become a martyr for global political rights.
On March 10, in honor of the 49th anniversary of China's great experiment in the abuse of state sovereignty, Tibetan monks began to protest en masse the continued demonization of the Dalai Lama and China's efforts to ethnically cleanse Tibetans.
China, for its part, pledged to "resolutely crush" those people. Within days, it launched a fresh military campaign in the region. It kicked out journalists and declared no quarter on religious figures.
Anyway, a generation later, as a reward for Chinese progress and a concession that China has established itself as a modern global player, it gets to host the Olympics!
Irony in such high doses should be fatal.

Yesterday, I told you about the little work of fantasy and fiction that Exxon Ed Whitfield calls a website. We looked at how Exxon Eddie threw away $106 billion dollars in corporate welfare, while casting the deciding vote in denying crucial funding for the programs our veterans were promised, and depended upon.

Our campaign is picking up steam and plowing right along at Ryan for Kentucky. It has been a great couple of weeks. The best part is that Exxon Ed Whitfield has noticed he has a little competition too. Although he didn't have a website during the whole 2006 election, this time he feels the need for one!! Well, welcome to the race Eddie, Now lets look at some of your site:
