Alaska was a shoe-in 3 electoral vote state for McCain-Palin. Yeah there was corruption everywhere and Senator-for-life Ted Steven’s jury still cannot throw the rude renegade jury lady out as they deliberate his fate. But Sarah was the golden girl?!? She was gonna energise the base. She got that pipeline goin’ for all [...]

Watching John McCain hug Sarah Palin yesterday was almost creepy: It was like seeing an old man not fit to be president copping a feel off a woman roughly half his age who’s not fit to be vice president. Eerily, it happened a few days after McCain turned 72 and the day before [...]

About The UKProgressive

UK Progressive began during the 2008 US Presidential Campaign. It replaced two blogs: "Outside the Boundaries" (dedicated to US/UK Politics and Business) and "Fire the Guru!" an expose of charlatans in the Mind Body Spirit business. It was briefly known as The Vadimus Post from the Latin 'Quo Vadimus' or 'Where Are We Headed?'

We publish from a 19th century hilltop farmhouse in Monknash on the South Wales Glamorgan Heritage Coast. US-journalist Denis Campbell, based in The Netherlands and UK for 12-years is the publisher/editor. You can follow his live news feed on Facebook.com (Denis Campbell) and Twitter @UKProgressive.

The opinions expressed here are those of each contributor and do not represent the opinion of UK Progressive, our advertisers, sponsors, any related companies and/or their affiliates.

UK Progressive is a free service. I cringe every time I hear a pbs, truthout or npr never-ending appeal for money. They make much more than we do. We're not your mother, we'll skip the guilt trip.
