Anyone else get the "Help Pay Hillary's Debt and Get a Free T-Shirt" email?

Not that the City of Seattle's incarnation does such a great job, but can we please have Office of Race and Social Justice Initiatives at the Federal level?

I'm guessing what WaPo calls the "intense back-stabbing" among Democrats for Obama jobs won't include wanting to be Secretary of Housing and Urban Development from here on. Hope they strip out all the "faith-based" bullshit from HUD's mission statement but quick.

Each day brings more reasons to fall in love with the promise, possibility, and potential of this administration. I'm ready to pack it all in, drive to D.C. and camp out until someone gives me a job. SWOON!

The Urban Archipelago, like the Gulag Archipelago, is a prison.

Does the new president often dismantle offices created by the outgoing president? Because if I was Obama that office of faith-based initiatives would be the first thing to go.

Now that the election's over, I cleared out about 400 emails that are no longer relevant.

Including the Send Bills To Hills one.

@8 I'm with you! Faith based bullshit. Those religious thieves spent twenty six million dollars on a "museum" that shows school children how Adam and Eve, two fictional characters, played together with T-Rex. This is exactly the kind of horseshit these religious types promote with your tax dollars. Not to mention that Bush has given them permission to use taxpayer money for proselytizing. Disgusting betrayal of our founding fathers.

Yes and Obama supports faith-based initiatives too.
