ODS Patients, Line Up

11:27 am EST January 29th, 2008 | News | 10 Comments

ODS – that’s Obama Derangement Syndrome. It manifests itself via people referencing the Washington Times if it seemingly hurts Sen. Obama or echoing Fox News type attacks to gin up outrage (in this case its inconsequential because the “snub” is ridiculous).

Right now the high water mark is the NY State NOW branch for accusing Sen. Kennedy of “gang rape” for not endorsing Sen. Clinton, but I fear we’ll see more as time marches on.

Gov. Sebelius Tanked, But So Does Every Other SOTU Response

11:12 pm EST January 28th, 2008 | Politics | 2 Comments

August has the details. But the out of party response is never any good. Even last year I didn’t think Jim Webb was as great as everyone seemed to think.

On one hand is the President of the United States in a joint session of congress, on the other is some member of congress or a governor in a room by themselves. In a spectacle-off, the latter will always lose.

 

Bush’s Last State Of The Union

Just the latest sign that our long national nightmare is mercifully coming to an end. Let the next year produce a president whose state of the union addresses don’t produce embarrassed cringes but rather make our hearts soar with pride fitting of Americans.

Why Are You So Dumb?

Via Americablog comes this quote from “libertarian” Megan McArdle: “The poor don’t need more food. Obesity is a problem for the poor in America.”

That’s right, it’s the rich who need more food. It couldn’t possibly be that healthier food costs more that poor people consume unhealthy food.

 

Kennedy, Obama, & The Torch

I attended the rally at American University this morning. It was phenomenal, the crowd was gigantic — and Teddy K was very Teddy K. I don’t think he really needed the microphones and the speakers. And he totally slammed Sen. Clinton on multiple fronts – the war, race, etc. – but without being too explicit.

John McCain: Elect Me And We’ll Have More Wars

2:46 am EST January 28th, 2008 | News | 13 Comments

Well, an admission from John McCain that he’ll go on to more wars in addition to extending the failed war in Iraq. There, “Democratic consultants” is your first ad if he’s the GOP nominee.
