Rep. Patrick McHenry Thinks U.S. Soldiers Are "2 Bit Security Guards"

Misc

Is this how the right wing supports the troops, by insulting their service? (h.t Think Progress) Pretty big words coming from some low life chicken hawk. Between that and Darryl Issa saying 9/11 was “just airplanes flying into buildings”, we have the making of some great political ads this season.

Unemployment Rises To 5.1%

Misc

Another sure sign of the recession. This is the highest rate in 5 years. Something interesting I just saw. I had on Morning Joe and he was talking to Erin Burnett of CNBC. They were trying the usual “sugar coating” of the economy when Burnett was handed a piece of paper. She looked at it […]

Misc

Speaking of Phil Gramm, let’s look at his employer: The spiraling crisis in the credit and housing markets has kept Gramm in focus, fairly or not. His […]

Terra! Terra!

Misc

In yet another example of politicizing terrorism in order to push political agendas, I present Attorney General Michael Mukasey (with a thanks to Chuck Schumer and Diane Feinstein): Criminal syndicates, and in some cases even terrorist groups, view IP crime as a lucrative business, and see it as a low-risk way to fund other activities.

Misc

st night on Race to the White House, Scarborough got a smackdown from Rachael Maddow as he tried to spin McCain’s positions: Scarborough tries to say McCain isn’t for tax cuts. Let’s see what this source says: * Keep Tax Rates Low: Entrepreneurs are at the heart of American innovation, growth and prosperity. Entrepreneurs create […]

Oh The Irony

Misc

I am amazed this story isn’t getting more play in the U.S. For years Sony BMG has gone after music downloaders and now it turns out they are the pirates: The story centres on French software developer, PointDev, which makes administrative tools for Windows. According to Ars Technica, the company recently received a call from […]
