Koch-style Big Money Now in School Board Races
I always like to check in on politics in Denver and Colorado, since that is where I cut my teeth in the political world. I’m still good friends with a number of elected officials out there and some of the Democratic Party officials. So I was surprised to read this today. My brother, who is a Denver Democratic Party officer sent it to me. It seems as though Koch-style big money has trickled down to the school board races.
Bush: ‘Gog and Magog Made Me Do It’
Invade Iraq, that is. And just one more story the MSM didn’t cover: A raging born-again religious fanatic lunatic was President. El Somnambulo cannot make this stuff up. But here’s the sourced inside skinny, starting w/Daily Kos, and continuing with an account from the Council for Secular Humanism: Incredibly, President George W. Bush told French […]
Final Thought – Most conservative
What president was the most conservative? Now that Dubya is so unpopular, many conservatives are quick to claim that Bush wasn’t really a conservative anyway. But honestly, who can they compare him to? Bush Sr., Reagan, and Ford all passed big tax hikes, as did Hoover. Ford surrendered Vietnam, both Reagan and traveled to Moscow […]
McClatchy Papers: Bush Pushed Torture to Find Iraq-Al Qaida Link

The Lie That Won’t Die
Ari Fleischer is a big liar. FLEISCHER: It was in part because of Iraq and large part because of the economy that Barack Obama won. Having said that, I also think Barack Obama should say thank you every day that he inherited a world without Saddam Hussein in it. The one thing people are going […]

Tell me, Republicans, though you may have many criticisms of your former president, do you still love him? (let’s be adults here – obviously we’re talking about admiring […]

What’s the Deal with Blair House?
What is the real story behind Blair House, because what’s emerging is raising pettiness to a new level. Was the Obama’s request to move in ten days early really denied due to an overnight visit by a former Prime Minister? And can you imagine what the MSM would be doing with this story if it had […]
We Really Don’t Like Bush
I guess I could have titled this post Duh. CNN Poll: Thinking about the following characteristics and qualities, please say whether you think it applies or doesn’t apply to George W. Bush: Is a strong and decisive leader: Yes 45%, No 55% Cares about people like you: Yes 37%, No 62% Brought the kind of […]
