Oh, the epic fail would be delicious. If you remember, Fiorina was McCain’s failed CEO turned economic brain who was a disaster on the trail for him.

Right Wing Militia Watch: Dick Morris Cheers On Killing ATF Agents
When Democrats are in control, the right moves toward the fringe of the militia right – the nationalists, Tim McVeigh, anti-government types. Today it’s Dick Morris on Fox News: “Those crazies in Montana who say, ‘we’re going to kill ATF agents because the UN’s going to take over’ – well, they’re beginning to have a [...]
Clinton Mexico City “Gaffe” Another Right Wing Myth
Shocker.
Clinton aide Mary Ellen Glenn emails that the Secretary of State’s question about a relic in a Mexican church — portrayed in the Mexican press and here as a gaffe — was actually a misunderstanding.
Clinton asked, the monsignor showing her around later reportedly told the Mexican press, who had painted the Virgin of Guadalupe on [...]

Answers To Right Wing Questions
Patrick Ruffini writes another one of those “the left is screwing everything up, the right can capitalize on this with our silly nonsensical slogans and policy proposals” blog entries and winds up:
The right will be galvanized to action by the theft of the free enterprise system. What will the left be galvanized by?
Me: A competent [...]
Jennifer Granholm Was Pathetic On Monday
In the middle of all the auto industry news on Monday, Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm was everywhere in the media. Sadly, most of what the Democrat said was nonsense. Gov. Granholm repeatedly praised outgoing GM CEO Rick Wagoner. Even worse, Gov Granholm assured us that the American auto industry was in the middle of a [...]
Obama Still Popular, Despite Fox News & Co.
The American people stubbornly refuse to believe the hype from Fox News, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Instapundit and the rest of the conservative disinformation apparatus.
The number of Americans who believe that the nation is headed in the right direction has roughly tripled since Barack Obama’s election, and the public overwhelmingly blames the excesses of the [...]
Economy Affecting People’s Emotional State? No Way Say Conservatives
The very idea that the economy could affect people’s emotional state is crazy. No wonder Michelle Malkin and Matt Drudge are laughing over the idea. Right?
Something We All Know
It’s totally impossible for the U.S. government to run a large organization without it being a colossal failure. Big programs under government control always fail.
Obama To GM’s Rick Wagoner: You’re Fired
Link
The chairman and chief executive of General Motors, Rick Wagoner, resigned Sunday as part of a broad agreement with the Obama administration to funnel more government aid to the ailing auto giant, according to people close to the decision.
Mr. Wagoner, who has served as G.M.’s top executive since 2000, agreed to step down after it [...]
That Newsweek Article On Paul Krugman Is Amazingly Stupid
So I finally got around to reading the article. What. A. Waste. Of. Time. Evan Thomas, along with the three other credited “writers” should be ashamed. It’s the ultimate in MSM surface story. It doesn’t contain a damn thing about the Obama plan on banks and the reasons behind Paul Krugman’s opposition to it. It’s [...]
A Note To Americans United For Change
Love your work, but nobody takes you seriously if you use Comic Sans in your ads.
Nia-Malika Henderson, Please STFU
Nia-Malika Henderson of the Politico has written… well, not really a story so much as a bit of Drudgeish linkbait discussing whether First Lady Michelle Obama is doing too much.
Now, of course, Mrs. Obama is doing the thing First Ladies have done from time immemorial, drawing vital media and public attention to issues they think [...]
Humility
Paul Krugman discusses the contrary indicator of magazine covers using that Paul Krugman Newsweek cover as an example. Heh.
(As far as the substance goes, I’m glad Krugman is speaking out about his reluctance for the existing Obama plan – while of course I hope Obama’s plan works, having a credible guy like Krugman out there [...]
GIVE Act Conspiracy Theory
The GOP continues to mainstream the lunatic fringe.
Playing The Odds
Based on their track record, who’s willing to bet that this single sourced story about Sec. Clinton that everyone else in the world seems to have missed and is being trumpeted by the conservative blogs will turn out to be as untrue as everything else they push (the phony teleprompter story, the phony flag pin [...]
Ghost In Cardiff?
Maybe. Although, isn’t that the hidden entrance to the Torchwood headquarters…?
“Torchwood: If it’s moving, we’re totally having sex with it”
Building Brand Steele
Does anyone remember the DNC running ads with Howard Dean’s face this prominent after Dean was elected party chair?
Its totally possible they did, but I don’t remember it. In fact, I think its pretty unusual to have a party chairman on your web ads. Usually its someone like the president if you’re the party in [...]
