The right wing media is in a frenzy today over the plan to send homeland security and disaster alerts to your cellphone. Listen to Limbaugh going off on the “regimes” plan today: I really hope that Limbaugh is talking about the Bush regime. This plan was authored by Tea Party poster boy, Jim DeMint in […]
There is so much spin and rewriting of history this morning that my head is ready to explode. I think it’s time for a quick refresher on what lead us up to this victorious point today, including how the Republican presidential candidate in 2008 went after then candidate Obama when it came of Osama bin […]
Last night the New York Times published a late night bombshell: Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates has warned in a secret three-page memorandum to top White House officials that the United States does not have an effective long-range policy for dealing with Iran’s steady progress toward nuclear capability, according to government officials familiar with the […]
Yesterday on Meet the Press John Boehner continued the same old line that President Obama was the most liberal member of the U.S. Senate. He also seems to be throwing out the idea of ever working together: MR. GREGORY: Does he have a point? REP. BOEHNER: No. If, if you think about what I said, […]
I have been spending some time today checking out the new White House website. Buried under the agenda section, in a subsection entitled “Katrina”, I noticed this little tidbit: President Obama will keep the broken promises made by President Bush to rebuild New Orleans and the Gulf Coast. He and Vice President Biden will take […]
Bob caught Chuck Todd saying this today: “You guys [Team Obama] own the economy at 12 o’clock eastern time today, correct? When Senator Obama announces his Treasury Secretary, announces the Larry Summers position. It is now Barack Obama’s responsibility on the economy, is that not correct?” So the Constitution says “the President shall take office […]
That’s how long their new Ayers ad is and now we have video: BarbinMD calls McCain out on this as being a “coward”: McCain didn’t have the guts to mention Ayers name while face-to-face with Obama, instead waiting until he was safely back in his cocoon of race-baiting rallies and Fox News interviews before going […]
Right wing hack Jeff Jacoby apparently saw a different debate last night than the rest of the world: JOHN MCCAIN’S opening words last night were: “Senator Obama, it’s good to be with you at a town hall meeting!” Indeed it was. We now know why Barack Obama declined McCain’s invitation earlier this year to appear […]
Yup – that’s what the wingnuts are saying. John McCain says “horseshit” not once, but twice, during a nationally televised debate and the crowd who screams and yells every time a word slips out on a liberal blog, calls this being a maverick. Unfuckingbelievable. Let me give you a glimpse of how the wingnut blogs […]
Harry hits it out of the park on this one: I understand that the candidates are putting together a joint statement at Senator Obama’s suggestion. But it would not be helpful at this time to have them come back during these negotiations and risk injecting presidential politics into this process or distract important talks about […]
