Again – we have become more like a third world nation under the Bush administration than a thriving super power. Republican economics do not work: New government figures show that almost 700,000 children went hungry in the United States at some point in 2007, up more than 50 percent from the year before to mark […]
Jonathan Martin is reporting about a secret session of conservatives planned for after the election: Two days after next week’s election, top conservatives will gather at the Virginia weekend home of one of the movement’s most prominent members to begin a conversation about their role in the GOP and how best to revive a party […]
This is a very serious question. The McCain campaign has been spreading very dangerous lies about Russia in order to protect Palin’s baseless claims about Russia coming into our airspace over Alaska. The Air Force has even called the McCain campaign a liar. Wars are started by violations of air space. The McCain campaign shouldn’t […]
Here is an interview Campbell Brown had yesterday with McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds. Campbell wouldn’t let Bounds try to spin the question on Palin’s national security, and Brown actually did a good job: Now the McCain campaign is canceling McCain’s appearance on Larry King tonight because of that interview. If McCain and Palin can’t stand […]
You can watch it live here. From the opening questions, I can kind of see how the Republicans are starting to frame this. They are going on the premise that Robert Novak leaked Plame’s name. The question to these Republicans should be, “what was Robert Novak’s security clearance at the time of the article?” We […]
That’s how a new report describes the Iraq War, and even goes as far as saying the “outcome is in doubt”. This isn’t a report by some left-wing group, but a report by National Defense University, the Pentagon’s top educational institute. The report was written by Joseph Collins, a former top Rumsfeld aide. He even […]
That’s what we are becoming, and it’s all in the name of “terror”: The FBI acknowledged Wednesday it improperly accessed Americans’ telephone records, credit reports and Internet traffic in 2006, the fourth straight year of privacy abuses resulting from investigations aimed at tracking terrorists and spies. The breach occurred before the FBI enacted broad new […]
This really aligns Clinton with the right wing: Democrat Barack Obama accused his rival Hillary Rodham Clinton on Friday of trying to “scare up votes” with a television ad showing sleeping children and asking who would be more qualified to answer a national security emergency call at 3 a.m. “We’ve seen these ads before,” the […]
In a recent poll Democrats are trusted more on every single issue than Republicans. That includes national security and the “war on terror”. Also Republicans in Congress are rated much lower than Democrats in Congress. Glenn has all the details.
Not only me, but all bloggers are now a threat to national security. Now this is absurd.
