When it comes to those whose reputations are being scrutinized by right-wing mobs, it seems that Obama is in pretty good company.

This isn't news, and it isn't breaking. And no, this is not another Lieberman diary. This is comic relief for political animals. Read More

Just saw this on the front page of my Yahoo news. I'm always fascinated with how photographers (and more importantly, editors) frame Dear Leader®. From fluttering flags, to crucifixes and halos, to PhotoShopped troops. Apparently that hasn't been working lately, so they've resorted to just flashing the words on our screens. But for all the flaws and criminal aspects of Dear Leader's® reign, I do get the sense that he does actually care.

(If you must, then see for yourself.)

Gossie, you're doing a hell of a job

Republicronieism Case #6287

CIA head Porter Goss ignores the fact-based community and gives Medal of Freedom winner, George "Slam Dunk" Tenet, a complete pass for his complete failures. Funny thing is, even an internal CIA investigation suggested otherwise.

Contrary to recommendations from his own internal watchdog, CIA Director Porter Goss will not order disciplinary reviews for a former director, George Tenet, and other officials criticized for their performance before the Sept. 11 attacks.

~~Unbelieveable.~~

Unacceptable.

So how did YOU celebrate the 11th anniversary of the Contract with America?

The most repugnant aspect of Bush's primetime dog-and-pony shows is the shameless manipulation of trembling victims and genuine heroes. Exploitive photo-ops with poor souls who have been recently shell-shocked by reality are always good for a 2-3 point bump in the polls. And if that doesn't work? Well then they'll just raise the terror alert level. That gets'em every time

So who do you think will be shamelessly used as a background prop at Bush's televised speech on Thursday?

Take the poll...

The weather's not fine. Wish you were here.

When Bush actually met face to face with victims of hurricane Katrina on Friday, the only thing missing was a Mission Accomplished banner flapping in the background. "This is what he does best. He connects with the people like no other." fawned MSNBC's Chris Matthews, ignoring the accompanying audio that revealed Bush telling the hurricane victims to go to a shelter that - as embarrassingly pointed out by gentleman also in the scene - had been destroyed in the storm. Bush then tells the two girls that what they really need is food and water - despite the fact that the girls had already twice explained what they needed was clothing. "This is pretty powerful stuff..." crooned Matthews, almost teary-eyed by this man-of-the-people puppet show.

However, most of the world had already been teary-eyed for four days. Read More
