- Cut and run – from George Bush – if you want to get re-elected. ‘Hey, aren’t you a Republican?’ ‘Who, me?’
- “Sen. Barack Obama urged Kenyans to take control of their country’s destiny by opposing corruption and ethnic divisions in government during a speech Monday in Nairobi.” Heck, it’s good practice here, too.
- Various GOP staff people on Congressional committees are apparently deciding that their resumes need a freshening. Gee.
- An interesting ad for a Democratic congressional candidate in Minnesota (YouTube).
- The latest Ohio polls look good for Democrats taking the Governorship and the Senate seat. Good.
- When in doubt and in Congress, vote your portfolio. You’ll be glad you did. Doesn’t everybody?
- When in doubt, advise the Judge Advocate General Corps that the rules don’t count, there’s a war on.
- Pat Buchanan: Only let the white guys in. You can guess what my thoughts are on that one.
- Katrina: lessons learned, the real state of affairs, and why the federal lack of response since trumps everything.
- More on the backdoor draft by the draft evaders. You realize that those same people would never dare suggest a draft to Keep Things Going because of the political dynamite that would cause. But people who wanted to be soldiers – they’re expendable, right?
- It just breaks my heart to watch George Allen go up in flames over his racist comments.
- The ongoing toll from the Lebanese oil spill.
