Google launched a service on Thursday for consolidated searches of U.S. Government websites. The site, which can be accessed at http://usgov.google.com/, searches “a huge index of U.S. Federal, state and local government websites,” according to a post on Google’s blog. The entry advertises the site as a way to quickly find government-related forms, phone numbers and mailing addresses.
Searches on the site seem to return more results and execute much more quickly than the U.S. Government’s own consolidated search site and portal, FirstGov.gov, which is powered by MSN Search.
As for the accuracy of the Google results, “corruption” returns 988,000 results, but “civil liberties” returns only 404,000.
Seems to be working flawlessly.

Karl Marx would love the popular moves among politicians in various state governments and the federal government to ban so-called "junk" food in schools, and to "put healthy food in" convenience stores and on the tables of those they define as poor. It's a very elitist and arrogant mindset that promotes this ideology, and it needs to be addressed.
Ultimately, the war supporters in Congress prevailed in the vote on the resolution. Still, the vote was significant because it places every member of Congress on the record as supporting or not supporting the unconstitutional, costly, violent occupation of a country that never attacked us. This vote should serve as an important reminder to the American people of where their representatives really stand when it comes to policing the world, empire building, and war.
