Joe Lieberman vs. The Troops

11:41 pm EST May 30th, 2007 | News | 2 Comments

Who do you trust? The answer does not rhyme with "Joe Lieberman" (And never mind that he promised the voters he would "help end the war in Iraq", that’s one of those inconvenient truths Al Gore is always talking about).

Chris Matthews, Blazing Idiot, Claims Al Gore Had Plastic Surgery

8:41 pm EST May 30th, 2007 | Media | 3 Comments

It’s always kind of funny when conservatives try to claim that because Chris Matthews worked for a Democrat two decades ago that that somehow makes him a liberal. Never mind that Matthews, a creature of the DC cocktail circuit if there ever was one, is in the tank for people like Mitt Romney and Rudy Giuliani. And you have to totally ignore the fact that Matthews has a chip on his shoulder against the Clintons and Al Gore.

So when he claims on his tv show – with no evidence, no real reasoning besides blind dislike, that Al Gore had plastic surgery – it just floats out there.

Fred Thompson Prepares To Fall On His Face

Hollywood actor Fred Thompson is making the transition from theoretical candidate to actual one, and while I could be wrong I don’t think it’s going to work out.

I don’t think he’ll appreciate it, but hey.

(And while I think his politics are stupid and pedantic, I don’t think he’s a bad artist – I frankly think too many people like to say someone is a bad writer or artist when they disagree with them. Someone can be a good artist/writer/whatever and be a total moron.)

Why The Mainstream Media Is A Joke

We are a nation of 300 million plus people. This is who NBC’s Chris Matthews chose to have on as an expert to discuss the homeland security implications of the quarantined TB patient:

Michaelbrown

Yes, Michael Brown, Bush-administration Arabian horse show expert who was put in charge of FEMA and prceeded to do such a “heck of a job” that New Orleans drowned, and people died unnecessarily. In other words there are probably a few hundred million people more qualified and knowledgeable for Matthews to have on discussing important issues but he chose the failure.

How They Think

Conservatives look to a statement by actor Robert Mitchum advising that we couldn’t pull out of Vietnam and should nuke the place as some kind of sage advice relating to Iraq.

Or something.

Mad Cow Meat? Ignore It

The government is fighting against having to test beef for mad cow. Amazing.

Not Big Enough

1:14 pm EST May 30th, 2007 | News | 12 Comments

Barack Obama is, frankly, not thinking big enough about a lot of issues. Health care is just the latest. The next Democratic president will have a Democratic House and Senate and the chance to not only undo the most recent disastrous conservative government, but an unprecedented opportunity to move the ball down the field. It’s honestly not the time for small ideas and small steps. It’s possible that Sen. Obama is thinking this small because transformative talk from a black candidate may be too much for America – too much too soon. But I don’t think that’s much of an honest excuse.

This just in….

In the cover story of InStyle magazine’s June issue, actress Jessica Alba, who is widely considered to have one of the best bodies in Hollywood, reveals that she has a crush on Democratic leader Harold Ford Jr.

"He is so cute, he’s adorable and he’s single," the 26-year-old says. "I went to one of his fundraisers."

No word yet if Alba has joined Halle Berry or Jessica Biel on Team Obama.
