My twin daughters turn 6 today, so I thought I would regale my Daily Kos brethren with the story of their birth.

Warning: It’s long... and emotional... and, well, just read it for yourself... below the fold.

It's finally happened...

Since the 2008 Presidential campaigns began, Republicans have been changing their party affiliations in some states in order to throw a wrench into the Democrat's primary process.

Approximately 9,000 people in Kentucky have switched their political affiliation since Jan. 1st so they could vote on the Democratic ticket.

Now they're beginning to realize that their switch won't help their party one bit.

If a Supreme Court Justice doesn’t say a word in court, do they matter?

It’s been two years, and 142 cases, since SCOTUS Justice Clarence Thomas has said anything during oral arguments.

Every other Justice has asked questions, a lot of questions at that, but Thomas hasn't.

With toy recalls seemingly happening every week, the Senate Commerce Committee is trying to write legislation to return the Consumer Product Safety Commission to its former strength so it can prevent things like lead-filled toys from entering the market.

But Nancy Nord, "President" (a term I use very loosely) Bush’s acting chairwoman of the Consumer Product Safety Commission, is trying to preserve republican "ideals" of small government and is asking Congress to reject legislation that would strengthen the agency by giving them more money and resources so they could properly do their job.

HT to ThinkProgress...

"President" Bush was asked by a reporter this morning whether there was a "risk of a recession."

Bush, as always, refused to answer the question and instead, as always, made a flippant remark that he wouldn't know because he's never been very good at Economics.

This is coming from a CNN News Alert: Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama has been placed under the protection of the U.S. Secret Service, reportedly because of a threat against him, the Secret Service said Thursday.

As of now, no news outlets have anything more, and considering that CNN has been wrong before with their "Breaking News" alerts, it could be nothing, but hopefuly more details come out soon...

The Federal Communications Commission is getting ready to make a recommendation to Congress for legislation aimed at restricting the airing of violent television shows before 10:00 p.m EST (9:00 CST).

According to an article in the Washington Post, the legislation would give the FCC the authority to levy fines on broadcast television networks and stations that air violent programming in the same manner that it does in cases of so-called "indecent" programming.
