Mike Huckabee seems to think so. Or at least that's my reading of the Huckabee campaign's press release which referenced his recent endorsement by James Dobson and Paul Weyrich, followed in short order by his claim that he represents the "heart and soul" of the party.

Have any idea what it costs to maintain a web site? Not much. And if the content of the web site is already being compiled and disseminated in other forms, the total cost of maintaining a site is real small. But not small enough for the Department of Commerce to maintain it's economicindicators.gov web site which presents economic data from both the Census Bureau and the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA).

If you caught our feckless leader's radio address last Saturday, you were treated to one of the worst examples of chutzpah and selective outrage in the history of American politics. Which is obviously saying a lot.

Now, what did we say about letting Rethugs run stuff? Oh, well, a reprint of history is in works, as the FDIC....is circlin' the wagons, Jethro!

John McCain has expressed his opinion that he is not against the U.S. remaining in Iraq even for 100 years, noting that the real issue is casualties during our stay, not simply that we stay. And he sees plenty of reason for hope in the conditions in Iraq following our troop surge. That's fine for McCain distant view from the presidential race here in America (and the view does not seem to have hurt him too much among the Republican primary voters). But how do Iraqis feel about these things?

Nuts. Absolute nuts, I think. Finally, the MSM is waking up to what me, you and everyone else already knows: The recession is here, like it, lump it, shoot it, cook it, kill it, eat it.

And the monkey that became president? Still doesn't get the joke.

On Jan. 17, 1998, Matt Drudge reported that Newsweek had spiked Michael Isikoff's story about President Clinton's sexual affair with Monica Lewinsky, the first shot in the war between the corporate and cautious culture of mainstream journalism and the completely batshit blogosphere.

Just a cute and short, nasty, of course, take on some recent news, and after the break, we'll play!
