Barry Bonds Is Such A Douchebag

5:41 pm EST July 26th, 2007 | Sports | 13 Comments

Could there be a worse face of Major League Baseball than Barry Bonds? (Maybe if Michael Vick played…)

A day after Barry Bonds called him a “little midget man who knows (nothing) about baseball,” broadcaster Bob Costas said he wasn’t upset with the San Francisco Giants slugger and responded with a jab of his own.

“As anyone can plainly see, I’m 5-6½ and a strapping 150, and unlike some people, I came by all of it naturally,” Costas said Thursday in a telephone interview.

Of all the people in the world you say BOB COSTAS doesn’t know anything about baseball?

Hollywood actor Fred Thompson’s not quite a campaign loses more people again. At some point, he’ll be at the same tiny campaign size as John McCain.

There They Go Again

Conservatives claim up and down that something is fake, only to be proven wrong again. Have we learned nothing from the Schiavo memo? The Washington Post sure hasn’t.

Impeach Alberto Gonzales, He Lies Under Oath

8:20 pm EST July 25th, 2007 | Republicans | 11 Comments

The nation’s chief law enforcement officer shouldn’t break the law so often.

Documents show that eight congressional leaders were briefed about the Bush administration’s terrorist surveillance program on the eve of its expiration in 2004, contradicting sworn Senate testimony this week by Attorney General Alberto Gonzales.

The documents, obtained by The Associated Press, come as senators consider whether a perjury investigation should be opened into conflicting accounts about the program and a dramatic March 2004 confrontation leading up to its potentially illegal reauthorization.

Takoma Park, Liberalism Central

6:41 pm EST July 25th, 2007 | Politics | 6 Comments

The city I live in, Takoma Park, passed a resolution to impeach Bush and Cheney. This will have zero effect, even in Takoma Park, except to show the world how liberal we are. Yay, I guess.

Democratic Candidates Snub DLC

5:16 pm EST July 25th, 2007 | Democrats | 7 Comments

The AP buys completely into the framing (incorrectly) of the DLC as the “moderate” wing of the party and sends out this whinefest for the DLC.

Not a single one of the eight presidential candidates plans to attend the Democratic Leadership Council’s summer meeting, a snub that says less about the centrist DLC than it does about a nomination process that rewards candidates who pander to their parties’ hardened cores while ignoring everybody else.

”They have tunnel vision,” DLC founder Al From said of his fellow Democrats.

In fact, Democrats have begun learning since 2004 that the play it safe right-leaning rhetoric of the DLC does not work in America. The DLC’s main claim to fame is that it was connected to Bill Clinton, but in fact Clinton is about the only national candidate connected to the DLC with any success. I would attribute that more to Bill Clinton’s superb political skill than to anything the DLC has done. The DLC’s reputation, especially in 2000, 2002 and 2004 was to tell Democrats that they weren’t being conservative enough – no matter how much Dems went pro-war and pro-stupid. It’s no mistake that the first election, 2006, where Democrats didn’t toe the conservative line is the one where they took back the House and Senate by advocating a moderate, mainstream point of view advocated by blogs and other grassroots activists.

The type of candidate loved by the DLC is a guy like Joe Lieberman, who left the Democratic party and raises money for Republicans while cheerleading the Iraq war. Somehow that doesn’t seem to be the right way to help the Democratic party.

Fred Thompson Campaign A Mess

3:27 pm EST July 25th, 2007 | Uncategorized | 8 Comments

These are the kind of managerial screwups that are the hallmark of the Bush administration, and the campaign of Hollywood actor Fred Thompson seems to be following in that tradition with yet another firing from his campaign team.

The day after his would-be campaign manager was replaced, Ex-Sen. Fred Thompson has another senior staff position to refill.

J.T. Mastranadi was hired just a week and a half ago to be the campaign’s director of research. He resigned this morning, a friend of his said. The friend said that Mastranadi was “fed up” with the “lack of structure” and was unclear about his role in the coming campaign.
