Taylor Marsh:
The reality is, however, that though Clinton voted for the war, there is no evidence whatsoever that Obama would have voted against the war in Iraq if he were a senator at the time
Barack Obama in 2002:

But [...]

Some people have no shame.
Let’s go back in the time machine and see what dogged reporter David Gregory asked President Bush in the press conference before the Iraq War:
Q Mr. President, good evening. If you order war, can any military operation be considered a success if the United States does not capture Saddam [...]
These Ex-Officials And Their Post-Administration Moments Of Clarity
May 28th, 2008

Scott McClellan, Colin Powell, etc. It’s so safe for them to talk about how they were opposed to administration policies or at least upset at them after they’ve left the White House. Of course they’re in it for their own skin. Public servants are supposed to serve the public and not their own butts. If [...]

Idiocy wins again as the bedwetting conservatives who see a terrorist everywhere get Dunkin Donuts to pull that ad in which she wears a checkered scarf.

This post brought to you by “Duh!”
Bartels comes to this conclusion by examining what happened to income inequality from President Truman to President George W. Bush. He writes, “Under Democratic presidents, poor families did slightly better than richer families (at least in proportional terms), producing a modest net decrease in income inequality; under Republican presidents, [...]

It looks like California voters are past the point (or at least moving in the direction) where they worry that Portia De Rossi getting married to Ellen* will somehow destroy the sanctity of that drunk wedding some couple who don’t even know each other had in Vegas.
More California voters now support allowing same-sex marriage than [...]

Why Should I Believe Scott McClellan Now?
May 28th, 2008

The evidence is pretty clear Scott McClellan was lying through his teeth when he was White House Press Secretary, why the heck should I believe he’s telling the truth now as he peddles his book? The main difference between him and Fleischer and Snow is that he wasn’t that good at the lying. Perino is [...]

About a year ago I made the switch from PC to Mac. I long ago gave up gaming on a PC because I don’t have the kind of budget required for it, and frankly my XBox 360 is one of the most fun gaming machines I’ve had since the Genesis. I use a computer now [...]

Preface this criticism with the knowledge I’ve had cordial interaction with 2 of TheNextRight’s founders, and while I wish them nothing but political fail, I welcome their addition to the blogosphere (at the very least as fodder for my eternal amusement).
