Here is his own 3am ad: Pretty interesting coming from a man who’s top economic adviser is considered one of the key culprits in the entire subprime mess. 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 […]
The Politico is just now getting the story out of McCain economic adviser Phil Gramm, and his ties to the subprime mess we are in today. I reported about this on Monday. All the same, I am glad to see the story get some traction now. People need to know that the man behind McCain’s […]
Phil Gramm is McCain’s chief economic adviser and was one of the chief architects of the deregulation of the banking industry that helped get us into the mortgage crisis. Now George Bush is proposing sweeping new regulations of the banking industry to help prevent more problems. This appears to go strongly against Gramm’s beliefs, as […]
Hillary has constantly talked about her Bosnia trip as First Lady and “landing under sniper fire”. She started that months ago and continued it this week: I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down […]
Two new items up at Straight Talk McCain. The first is about another gaffe John made yesterday, this time in Israel. He compared the Jewish holiday Purim, a time to celebrate the Jewish people being saved from mass execution while living in Persia, to “their version of Halloween“. Secondly – it appears that this weeks […]
John jokingly said he “would commit suicide” if the Democrats won control of the Senate in 2006. Is that something to joke about if you want to be President?

This is a joint project between IntoxiNation and Crooks and Liars. Check it out. There isn’t much on it yet, but our list of contributors is growing and we […]
Cesca nails it: Why am I seeing Reverend Wright on MSNBC right now? None of this is new and all of it has been debated over and over. The very serious cable people appear to be deliberately hitting Senator Obama on this just because they hit Senator Clinton on Ferraro. But this isn’t news, goddamn […]
I mean really. We haven’t hardly heard anything from her since 1984, but now she is on every television station, and she continues to spew her racist comments. I agree with Obama, when he says she is “dividing Democrats”. If she wants McCain to be President so bad, why don’t she just go out and […]
Five U.S. soldiers were killed by a suicide bomber today. The war McCain loves!
