"While Hillary's backers trumpet her inevitability,
she faces hotly competitive races
in early primary states. She is measurably
more popular in states where she has not
campaigned than in primary states where
she has, just like Bob Dole in 1996."

bet on the lie he just told, Link

Why is Don
Siegelman in Jail?
Crooked Gonzo Atty Scandal snares innocent man
Excerpts:
Ms. Simpson says she will tell House investigators
about a second conversation with Rob Riley. In 2005, she says
Riley told her that Siegelman would be re-indicted
in Montgomery. He was indicted by Canary's office in May 2005,
and tried in May 2006, one month before the Demo
primary for governor. Riley denies that the conversation occurred.
There are other red flags, besides Ms. Simpson's
testimony. Siegelman was convicted of appointing Scrushy to a state
hospital board in exchange for a campaign contribution.
Elected officials, from the president down, appoint people who
contribute directly to their campaigns without
facing criminal charges.
The sensitivity of these cases - and their ability
to change the political balance of power - makes it is critical that
prosecutors be nonpolitical and above reproach.
In the current Justice Department, they have not been.
Is this why Gonzales couldn't tell the truth about
why the attorneys were fired?
If the Attporney General of the US would resign
before tellijng the truth, that untold truth must be damaging.
Everyone else fell on their sword to protect
Rove, Cheney and Bush - why is this any different?
Siegelman might be in jail because he was a winning
Democrat is a ruby-red state.

Quotes
"Of course, no matter how much Clinton speaks
of common ground,
she doesn't stand a chance of winning
votes among pro-lifers."
-- Kathryn Joyce and Jeff Sharlet in Mother Jones Magazine, Link
Really?
Even if the GOP nominates a pro-gay, anti-gun, pro-choice ex-mayor
of New York?
I hope the Huckabee/Brokeback pro-life ticket splits the Fascist
votes in half.

you didn't blame bush for.
and pretended you'd never heard of AIPAC.
so I quite reading you.
Ask around - they'll say I'm a Mossad agent.
a year later I come back and you're selling a war with iran.
You are a maladjusted, misinformed Monkey
they're developing nukes.
they'll attack israel.
oh, my.
I am against Iran being able to nuke Israel.
If you disagree with me, what does that make
you?
on board for another war, I see.
How does "fewer nukes" make me pro-war?
hillary and war on iran.

Yep, I lead the Hillary/Cheney team - I'm the quarterback.

Too hot for Southwest Airlines
Excerpt:
Kyla Ebbert says she wants an apology from Southwest
Airlines after being told to get off a plane
and change her clothes because what she was wearing
was too revealing.
Ebbert told the Matt Lauer that an airline employee
asked her to come up to the front of the plane
just before the crew closed the plane's doors.
"He told me, 'I'm sorry but you're going to have
to catch a later flight because you are dressed inappropriately,
this is a family airline and you are too provocative
to fly on this flight'," Ebbert said. "I said, 'What part is it?
The shirt? The skirt? Which part?'
He said, 'the whole thing.'"

Kathy Griffin, others, win Lesser Oscars
Kathy Griffin claimed her first-ever Emmy for
her My Life on the D-List, which beat out Antiques Roadshow,
Dog Whisperer, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition
and Penn ? Teller: Bullshit in the "Whavetever" category
Spike Lee, who whitey just refuses to gift with
an Oscar, scored his first Emmy for his Katrina BFEE-Expose:
When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts.
John Goodman beat out Forest Whitaker for Guest
Actor in a Drama. Goodman, winless in nine Emmy tries,
scored for his crazy republican judge on Studio
60. Whitaker was nominated for his recurring role on ER.
Recently, on a BCR clip, we heard what happened
last time - Kathy lost her Emmy.
I like her - I think she's got the Funniest
Woman title until someone takes it away from her.
