Sounds like a great idea to me. I think they should have a sortable label for every post by the issues they affect (abortion, gun control, etc), whether it's a (speech, vote, or action) and whether they take a conservative or liberal stance.

Therefore if you wanted to see what a politician said, did or voted about issue #25, you can get a quick snapshot.

...reports that will be published with no effort to verify their accuracy.

I wonder if these guys think politicians can't sue for libel.

Imagine what a pain the ass life would be for all those federal judges and officials having protestors camped outside their own homes & businesses.

Politicians should have access to those data as well. This is only fair in face of Freedom of Information Act.

big deal. That already exists--it is called "Free Republic".

"reports that will be published with no effort to verify their accuracy."

It seems that is EXACTLY what our goobermint does to us.

The Denver Police Department was caught with thousands of intel files they wrote on many private citizens who had committed no crime. Those reports were full of inaccuracies and false statements. They claimed people were “militia”, “anti-government”, “terrorists”, whatever they needed to say to get more funding to keep their cushy jobs of spying on innocent Americans.

It seems we have government employees who need to make themselves useful before they lose their jobs. Add in a touch of “spying is cool”, and blam-o, instant commie bastard spying on Americans in the name of the state.

bumping for later.

A buck-fifty says the gubbermint will find a way to shut them down as soon as they start getting any traction.

What is their website address? So many bad items, so little time. Has Mia T been pinged? She could probably overload the website with her Clintonian info.

[R. Scott]

I hope their website address gets wide publicity.
If anyone knows it, please post it.

add university professors, attorneys, and government workers and you might have some real usable information

I can just see the day when they start mapping out a government official's drive to work and grocery store and he gets assassinated. Idiots.
