Bush's premature announcement of the plot to create bombs from
Oil Wars
Both the Democrats and the new Republican VP nomination are busy trying to pull off some jujitsu on energy issues. Your guess is as good as mine who will be more succesful.
Rick Davis and AT&T Shacking Up
Seems like Rick Davis's buddies at Davis, Manafort have been shacking up with AT&T.
McCain is MIA; Believed Hidden Behind Palin's Skirt
/
bmazJohn McCain has always had a schizophrenic relationship with women. He has constantly painted himself as the randy, tough flyboy, but, as both he and his mother (and everyone else who seems to have knowledge) readily admit, he was, and still is, a flat out mama's boy all the way. Now, the emasculated flyboy McCain has found an even bigger skirt to hide behind, that of Sarah Palin.
Turns Out It's Not Moose Burgers...
Can it possibly be true that the moose hunting governor from the north is really a elitist latte fan?
Rather than Vetting Palin, McCain Will Orchestrate a Cover-Up of Her Abuse of Power
It says a great deal about how McCain would govern that--instead of making a considered, rational decision, he instead decided to cover-up the negative aspects of his choice for VP.
The Devil Went Down To Georgia
/
bmazWell, okay, it was Dick Cheney. Close enough. Cheney, was in Georgia's capital, Tbilisi, yesterday to underline America's "deep and abiding interests" in the Caucasus, and announce a billion dollars of aid, in the face of Russian warnings that any western moves to rearm the country, or bring it into NATO, could bring further instability in the region between Moscow and Washington. Vladimir Putin thinks the US ginned up the recent war in Georgia in an effort to aid a certain candidate in the coming US election. I wonder who that could be?

It's not just Pat Leahy who thinks the FBI story about anthrax is bogus--it's pretty much everyone who has examined the case.
The Gray Lady's Lizard-Brain Logic
AdNags and Rutenberg present a bunch of evidence for how the McCain camp is still incompetent. And then use it to extol the competence of Steve Schmidt.
The Politics of Resentment
Among other weak and strong attacks on McCain-Palin, Biden's beginning to undermine the Republican politics of resentment.
John Bush's Son's Bank Just Failed
Andrew McCain's bank just went under. Seems like Neil Bush all over again, huh?
Did Three Million People Not Turn Off Their TV Quickly Enough?
Looks like several million of the people watching McCain last night simply didn't turn the channel after watching football.
TrooperGate Investigation Timing
Seven people involved in TrooperGate have just recently refused to testify, as they had earlier agreed to do. The hearing to vote on subpoenas will be September 12. After that, the final report deadline has been moved up to October 10.
"Uneaten potato chips, rigatoni, and a McCain cake"
Ut oh. Looks like people in mid-western swing states aren't all that enthused about McCain, even after he picked Sarah Palin to be his running mate.
"Holed Up"
I think there are several reasons the McCain campaign changed its plans at the last minute and sent Palin back to AK for a while.
What SHOULD Happen to Public Officials Who Lie
After a long period of fighting it, Kwame Kilpatrick is finally accepting his due for having lied to cover up an affair. Would that the Bushies--starting with Scooter Libby--had to pay the same kind of cost.
Trash Talk Is BACK!!!
Who would schedule a nomination accepting speech to compete with football?

Sarah Palin's attacks on community organizers last night heralds another GOP attack on voter registration, particularly the work of ACORN.
