An interview with Sean Hannity. Boy that will really get to the issues. For a little entertainment, let’s watch Sean get his ass handed to him and even try to say that Bush had to fix a recession inherited from Clinton and Gore (yeah I had to do a double take on that one).
That is the only way to describe Sarah Palin after she basically throws into the mix a war with Russia:
Nothing like a good scandal coming out of the Bush ran government to kick off our election season: Government officials handling billions of dollars in oil royalties improperly engaged in sex with employees of energy companies they were dealing with and received numerous gifts from them, federal investigators said Wednesday. The alleged transgressions involve 13 […]
Andrew Sullivan has been doing some digging and noticed something very interesting: I’ve noted the bizarre locution Bush used last night to describe the torture endured by John McCain. I hope the press corps will follow up. But one piece of evidence that the omission of the t-word by Bush was deliberate comes in Fred […]
John McCain is talking about skipping the GOP convention or having it postponed due to Gustav. Here is what he said: McCain told Chris Wallace of “Fox News Sunday” in an interview taped for broadcast Sunday that the convention could be rescheduled. “It just wouldn’t be appropriate to have a festive occasion while a near-tragedy […]
The Washington Post is reporting this morning that the Republicans are considering delaying the start of their convention because of Tropical Storm Gustav, which is expected to become a hurricane before making landfall on Tuesday. The White House is also debating whether Bush should cancel his speech or not. Gustav is not the only problem […]
It looks like Iraq wants us out by date certain now: Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki said Monday no security agreement with the United States could be reached unless it included a “specific deadline” for the withdrawal of all American troops from Iraq. Last week, U.S. and Iraqi officials said the two sides had agreed tentatively […]
I just heard Joe Scarborough saying on MSNBC that a VP pick “isn’t that important”. That may be news to all of us after we just endured days on end of non-stop media coverage of who the VP pick might be. The media parked outside of Biden’s (and others) house like a flock of paparazzi […]
Maybe we can be saved as a nation. A new Pew Research poll finds more Americans now believe churches should be kept out of politics. I wonder how much the Bush reign had to do with this? His eight years has really muddled the divider between church and state that our founding fathers felt imperative […]
The administration has agreed to Iraq’s timetable for withdrawal. Whenever a Democrat mentioned the word “timetable”, they were termed as a “defeatist”. So will the media call out Bush for the same thing now? The Republicans wanted this game of name-calling, now it’s time to show them what it’s like.
