Gridlock: House Passes, Senate Stalls Iraq ResolutionI knew it had to come to this: Seems the GOP was determined to play 109th rubberstamp no matter what.... Is He A Rethug Yet?I love stuff like this, as Chuck Barris would say, then again, I love licking a lit road flare.... Home prices.......Some news stories require no comment beyond the headlines and a brief summary of the stories below them. What Do They Really Fear?This is a sort of expansion of my comments to Lee's piece detailing this Weyrich and his dread fear of a return of The Fairness Doctrine.... Quote of the dayHow many hours has CNN given Cindy Sheehan and her ilk in the guise of news? How many hours did ABC devote to the Abu Ghraib Prison fiasco while barely mentioning the bravery of posthumous Medal of Honor winner Corporal Jason Dunham, who threw his body on a live grenade saving the lives of perhaps a dozen of his fellow Marines? I could go on with many more examples....Paul Weyrich, leading religious right politico, attempting to prove that mainstream media are, in effect, organs of "liberals," as part of his reasoning on why it would be a bad thing to resurrect the "fairness doctrine" for media. Feeling the wage stagnation pinch? Go get some education, you slackard, you!Concerned about the growing divide between the rich and poor, between the well-paid and poorly-paid?

Running Out Of Lies And Liars: Bush Running Low On BothApparently, it may tougher to attack Iran than may be possible, especially with The Chimpster running out of excuses...and alibi artists... Mary Cheney, committed right wing conservative except for issues affecting herOdd how those judgmental right wing values seem fine to people who aren't the targets of the disgust, but seem kind of...wrong when the right winger becomes the target. Take Mary Cheney (please). Only Cheney would lack the resources to leak infoI know Dick Cheney is an easy target, but come on, this borders on the ridiculous! Paying for attacks on UN climate reportIf you work for, or are beholden to, a gigantic oil company, how do you go about attacking the climate report issued Friday which finds global warming to be even worse than previously thought? Easy, you just offer a "financial incentive" to scientists to attack the report. |
