Here we go – attack the newspaper. The McCain campaign has a post up calling the New York Times a “partisan paper of record”, as well as comparing it to the Huffington Post. Amazing that this is the only defense they have, while ignoring other outlets such as Newsweek is also reporting on the Davis/Freddie […]
So it’s not only the New York Times taking McCain’s campaign manager to task. Newsweek is also reporting about the $15,000 a month Rick Davis made from Freddie and Fannie up to last month. You can bet we will hear a bunch more crying about the media from the McCain campaign in the coming days. […]
Newsweek is all over troopergate: Court documents show that Judge Suddock was disturbed by the alleged attacks by Palin and her family members on Wooten’s behavior and character. “Disparaging will not be tolerated—it is a form of child abuse,” the judge told a settlement hearing in October 2005, according to typed notes of the proceedings. […]
You can not be President. Simple! Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said in an interview Wednesday that he was uncertain how many houses he and his wife, Cindy, own. “I think — I’ll have my staff get to you,” McCain told Politico in Las Cruces, N.M. “It’s condominiums where — I’ll have them get to you.” […]
Obama leads McCain by 15 points (51-36) in the latest Newsweek poll. If this is the “bump” they were saying Obama would see after securing the nomination, then McCain needs to just drop out now. (updated to change from 16 points to 15 points. That’s what I get for doing early morning math!)
On Wednesday night McCain issued a statement saying this: “No representative of Paxson or Alcalde & Fay personally asked Senator McCain to send a letter to the FCC,” the campaign said in a statement e-mailed to reporters. However 5 years ago in a sworn deposition: But that flat claim seems to be contradicted by an […]
For years we heard people talking about how brilliant Rove was when it came to politics. I always disagreed with that. What Rove is good at is dirty tricks, spinning and lying. Calling him a “great political mind” is like calling a bank robber a “great businessman” or a rapist an “artful seducer of women”. […]
I heard of being in bed with the right but the latest piece by Newsweek columnist Eleanor Clift makes it sound like one hell of an orgy going on: Republicans finally had something to celebrate this week when Democratic Sen. Russ Feingold called for censuring George W. Bush. Democrats must have a death wish. Just […]
Newsweek has obtained new e-mails that Michael Brown turned over to Congress regarding Katrina. These emails show a White House in “Chaos” following the storm: Brown, now trying to restore his image, gave Congress a set of e-mails sent as the catastrophe unfolded. The e-mails, obtained by NEWSWEEK, provide the latestâ€â€Âthough still incompleteâ€â€Âpicture of senior […]
From Newsweek: If you read enough numbers, you never know what you’ll find. Take President Bush and private Social Security accounts. Last year, even though Bush talked endlessly about the supposed joys of private accounts, he never proposed a specific plan to Congress and never put privatization costs in the budget. But this year, with […]
