Yesterday posted about the mountain of failures this administration has had. From Iraq to Katrina, it can be a full time job just documenting all the wrong turns the Bush White House has made. Also yesterday, we saw the first Republican publicly calling for Gonzales to go. John Sununu has been critical of the administration […]
CNN just reported that White House spokesperson, Dana Perino, was asked about Harry Reid’s statement. She quickly turned it around to say that the “Democrats will use this for politics”. I guess it was fine and dandy for the Republicans to use a blow job for politics in the Clinton years, but when it comes […]
That is the headline of an AP article today. At first read you start to think “great – here we go again with pork barrel spending”. It sends a feeling of “bridges to nowhere” encompassing my body. But when you read the article, you find out that is not the case at all. While Democrats […]
That is the latest piece by Froomkin in today’s WaPo talking about the Libby trial: There is a cloud over the vice president . . .

This has become a national disgrace, one that points directly at the administration. As Jon points out, […]
TPM has this: Oops! Building on my last post on the NRCC’s bogus Business Advisory Council and “Businessman of the Year” program, it turns out that Abdul Tawala Ibn Ali Alishtari isn’t the first member of the council to be indicted on charges of supporting terrorism. Yasith Chhun, the head of the Cambodian Freedom Fighters, […]
With the White House working hard to pin everything on Iran, it should come as no shock that Iran would turn the tables and do the same to us: The Iranian Foreign Ministry charged Sunday that Sunni insurgents from Iran used Pakistan as a base to plan a bombing that killed 11 people and wounded […]
That is the news being reported on CNN right now. Apparently officials in the White House and Pentagon have confirmed to CNN that al Sadr has fled Iraq for Iran – possibly in light of the security crackdown. Of course they are talking about what a “victory” this is. Luckily CNN has one voice of […]
