Cpl. Matthew Stanley died in Iraq in 2006. About a year ago, his mother gave John McCain a bracelet in his memory. Johm McCain wears that bracelet to this very day. He told us tonight that not a day goes by that he doesn't look at it and have it remind hom of this fallen soldier.

Great story. I applaud John McCain for recognizing one young man's service and sacrifice.

I only hope that John McCain could have a reminder of the sacrifice of our troops for each and every one of the talented men and women who have given that same sacrifice for this country, not to protect us from terrorists like Osama bin Laden, but so we could occupy an oil-rich country that never attacked us. Let's Jump...

The lamentation and rending of garments in the wake of Barack Obama's repeated, ill-advised comments on several issues (Wes Clark's comments, the death penalty, gun ownership, etc.) seems to have built itself into a Jupiter's spot of neverending self-powered cyclonic fury. Woe is us, that we have been sold out by the Great Blue Hope!! Change is a lie!! Our country and Constitution have been sold up the river!!

There are all kinds of well-intentioned protests arising; "I will not donate any money..." "I will not help to register any new voters..." "I will still vote for him, but that's all!"

Well, I'm going to tell you what to do now.

SYFPH, and just run the damn play.

The fantastic recommended diary Obama to Pull a Big Switcharoo (w/poll) <updated>Made me think about the intelligence within the top of the Obama campaign, bot the candidate and top advisors. So much so that a comment I made got so big it really needed to be put in its own diary.

If you think you are smart, there's some ridiculous trivvial bull just beyond the jump. If you think otherwise, then you might be in for a bit of learnin'. If you think George Bush may be a great President, I've got a way for us to get in on that free money for "fixing Iraq" scam. If you think George Bush might be our greatest President, quick, the terrrrist are coming, hide in here!!!

Man, I tell ya, this Democratic primary season sure has been different. The long-running nature of the contest certainly has a lot to do with it, and I think that's a factor in seeing a side of the Democratic party and America in general that we don't usually get to see, since usually by now we're paying attention to all the tricks Karl Rove is pulling out of his Lee Atwater Do-It-Yourself Mudslinger's Manual.

Let's face it, Kentucky, West Virginia, North Carolina, Indiana, Pennsylvania, and Ohio all have something in common, more or less, and it isn't normally associated with the central tenets of the Democratic Party, unless you count the dwindling supply of reliable union voters, who've been reliable in a clinging to guns and God way since 1980, and voting Republican.

What this can't-quite-put-my-finger=on-it thing might be, why this looks like a big fat rhinocerous in the room, and why it really isn't, upon landing from the jump...

This occurred to me while reading Allenfire's Diary I am an angry Republican in Indiana. Allenfire actually has evidence of several people planning to engage in Operation Chaos tomorrow in Indiana. Some of this I posted in a comment in that diary.

So what if, in precincts across Indiana, people were challenged pro forma on their voting intentions? Could it be possible for Operation Chaos (O.C.) participants to be caught in the sting, run off for fear of felony charges, or convinced to stay home on the chance they might get caught?

I think it's not only possible, but likely that Limbaugh will face felony charges, Operation Chaos will be summarily kneecapped, and Wingnuts will henceforth be cowed into obeying the law, with just four simple steps--following one jump by all of us.

Edit: I changed the title for those who didn't get the cultural reference. Prison rape is bad. I reject and denounce prison rape.

Iowa 2nd District Convention: Updated!

Just got back from convention.

Adjournment at 12:58 AM.

When using a new technology, make sure you have enough of it to avoid bottlenecks.

80% of our time was waiting for the vote counter to count.

In 2nd District, the seven National delegates went four Obama, two Clinton, one Edwards. Obama got the Alternate. Apparently Obama swept all district alternates statewide. It could be important; but for most contingencies, let's hope for good fortune and karma that it's moot.

Great stories after the Jump (but for now I may have to wait until morning to update).

Tomorrow is the Iowa 2nd District Convention, Mt. Vernon; that's a half-hour drive, and registration starts at 8:00. I want to be there by then, in order to get all the ducks in a row to compaign for Denver.

We are going to try something different tonight; I have a headache, and need to get to sleep, but I will at least let you know who your Bush Administration Sycophant/Crony/Underling/Minion Obfuscator of the day is.

Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to find out all you can, and plaster it all over this diary (in the comments), about our man.

Who is our man, you ask? Former EPA Assistant Administrator for Air and Radiation Jeffrey R. Holmstead.Jeffrey R. Holmstead

Some days, you just get bogged down in real life, and you don't have time to write your daily diary of the newest worst Bush Admin Sycophant/Crony/Underling/Minion Obfuscator.

I wonder if Pat Robertson or John Hagee would say that today, God is rewarding me for righteous work. Because some days, these really write themselves.

Today's SCUM-O, courtesy of TPM and Erica Werner of AP News, is Robert Coughlin.

You are a mighty mini warrior.

Bob Sanders.

Okay, check out this image.

Here at SCUM-O, we pride ourselves in finding out more about each and every one of these faceless, nameless pluggers, so that to us they are more than just "Crony #32" in the credits.

Tonight, without further ado (clichés for the clichéd): Dr. W. David Hager.
