Yesterday Condi said we made 1,000s of mistakes in Iraq. Today she is backpedaling on that comment saying “don’t take it literally”. One day after Condoleezza Rice said the United States made possibly “thousands” of tactical mistakes in the war against Iraq, the secretary of state says she was speaking “figuratively, not literally.” Interesting. So […]
Let me set the stage. A dark background with a constant thumping much like a heart beat. Loud crashes come through as you hear sound bites of George Bush vowing to “protect” the American people. This is the start of the RNC’s new ad to attack Democrats and it is great. The highlight of the […]

Here’s […]
Today we get our first of hopefully many scoundrels going down in the Abramoff/Delay connection: A former top aide to Rep. Tom DeLay pleaded guilty Friday to conspiracy and promised to cooperate with the government’s investigation of lobbying fraud. Tony Rudy, DeLay’s former deputy chief of staff, was told by a U.S. District judge that […]
Well it looks like the White House is trying everything to get out of the slump including this little gem: BLACKBURN, England (Reuters) – U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice accepted on Friday the United States had probably made thousands of errors in Iraq but defended the overall strategy of removing Saddam Hussein. Local Muslims […]
Sounds like a joke but sadly it is not. Did you know high schools and even middle schools have started using tasers on students? I didn’t. There’s a brewing controversy on this now in Wichita, Kansas, which I learned about from Jake Lowen of the excellent organization Hope Street Youth Development. Here’s the timeline he […]
