This is precious: September 01, 2008, 1:10 a.m. Don’t Call Her ‘Harriet’ There’s more to Palin than her plumbing. By Kathryn Jean Lopez St. Paul — Contrary to popular pundit belief, Sarah Palin is no Harriet Miers. And it’s a funny thing: When conservatives like myself opposed Miers’s nomination to the Supreme Court on the grounds that she [...]

(BLUE) A response to Red’s commentary on Luda UPDATED
Posted in Progressive on July 31, 2008 | Leave a Comment »

It’s not shocking that a minority group suddenly finding one of their own in a position to change history is excited about the prospect, and is reflecting that excitement in their [...]
(BLUE) Bushman – The Darkest Night
Posted in Progressive on July 27, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
It’s nice to see that unadulterated affection for the American President still exists, despite his many flaws, misstatements, missteps, errors and heinous violations. But to compare him with an all-out selfless hero is to descend into unreasoned puffery. Bush is a foil – not only to the world, but to America and the Republicans as [...]

To supplement my most recent discussion of Factcheck’s articles revealing falsities and overstatements regarding the Campaign, here is a list of their most recent postings (as can be seen on their homepage), with my emphasis added: Straining a Point July 16, 2008 An Obama ad says he’ll “fast track alternatives” to imported oil.

I received a new smear email yesterday, and did a bit of research to debunk it’s heinous claims – little did I realize that Obama’s quick response team was already on it. The Original Email: This doc is not entirely accurate…..but the tax policy differences are 100% real. On Wed, Jul 16, 2008 at 4:32 [...]
BLUE – RE: “Michelle Obama Rant Tape”

Where is this tape? How’s this for dubious?: All they need to do is pull the tape from this 2004 Conference (particularly the panel Michelle was on), which should be readily available (since this was a very large multi-day event). All a journalist needs to do is watch this tape: if this is not the [...]

We’ve taken a step into the future – and we’re throwing off the mantle of Bush/Clinton/Bush/Clinton politics – and it’s about time. Be proud. We’re moving on, and in the right direction, and the Bush Repuublicans don’t stand a chance.
