Yet, after losing his job (or leaving it), the first action [Timothy Dale Johnson] decided to take was to murder a prominent liberal [...]

August 14th, 2008 · 7 Comments
According to repub Bill Sali, oil apparently does grow on trees. Or grow in trees. Or something not related to rock formations.
Anyway, somehow this repub — whose current claim to fame is in currently flashing his petticoats in the Drill Here Drill Now burlesque — has decided to upend every bit of geology discovered [...]

McCain: “Nations Don’t Invade Other Nations”
August 14th, 2008 · 17 Comments
Oh God. Is this a senior moment?
The only way McCain and the right wing can get out of this is to say that either we, the United States, or Iraq, or both, are not nations. For nations can invade non-nations whenever they want, and vice versa.

73 years ago today, FDR signed the law that created the Social Security program. This pay-as-you-go (as designed, where younger workers pay for the older ones) program has been not only one of the most popular, but also one of the most effective programs in the history of the US. John McCain thinks [...]

“Yesterday, I heard Sen. McCain say, ‘We are all Georgians now,’” Saakashvili said on CNN’s American Morning. “Well, very nice, you know, very cheering for us to hear that, but OK, it’s time to pass from this. From words to deeds.”
He must not know or realize that when the Administration speaks their words are very [...]

Lee blames his poor fundraising on his horrible campaign
August 14th, 2008 · 9 Comments
Dana Garrett picked up on something I totally missed:
Republican gubernatorial candidate Bill Lee today hinted at some trouble in his campaign staff. Some “personnel changes” needed to be made:
“We had some turmoil in our fundraising and made some personnel changes. There were a couple weeks of transition there.” (source)
