I stumbled across this on reddit. After reading his website I have come to the conclusion he is one of the most important candidates running for office this election cycle and am surprised I only found one mention of him searching DailyKos (Google finds an entry that the kos search doesn't, odd). I'll let him introduce himself...

Spotted this video from Fox New on Reddit. Apparently from the show "Dayside". An audience member says, "I don't think Israel is really bombing Lebanon, I think it's faulty construction". The hosts where basically blaming civilians for getting themselves bombed too.

Over on Brad DeLong's blog I noticed this interview with Bush:

I just want you to know I not only strongly believe in the decisions I make, I'm optimistic that they're going to work -- very optimistic.

The captain of the Titanic was an optimist too -- "Oh we're not going to hit anything. Full speed ahead." Can anyone think of other examples of speeding optimistically toward disaster?

I keep hearing the talking heads say that leaders have to be optimists. Do you think this is true? Is that a good thing? Read More

If someone from the Whitehouse press corps is reading this, or someone who knows one, can you please ask them to get the Whitehouse on the record as to whether or not the president believes he would need a declaration of war from congress to authorize a nuclear attack on Iran? Perhaps I'm silly, but it seems like an important question. It might even be fun to see scotty dance around the question. Who knows, he might even answer it since there isn't "an ongoing investigation" to use as an excuse.

I was browsing StockLemon.com when I came across a story about an odd Spanish company and Tom Noe. There is a Toledo Blade story about the connection and the investigation. Read More

Kenneth Tomlinson, the President of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, commissioned Fred Mann, a former GOP consultant and a retired employee of the National Journalism Center, to report on bias on PBS. Yesterday Sen. Byron L. Dorgan of North Dakota released that report and today the LA Times said:

Radio host and former San Diego Mayor Roger Hedgecock was listed as "anti-Bush" for saying the military was underpaid.

According to Mr Mann's logic if someone said members of the military were overpaid they would be Pro-Bush. Hmmm. Now that I think about it this makes sense given that the Bush administration tried to cut the pay of service members, so I guess it is a Pro-Bush position.

The Times said that Tomlinson...

[...] commissioned the report without informing the rest of the CPB board in order to learn more about the programming without alarming people in the system.

You know, kinda like Double Secret Probation.

Woot! My first diary entry. Take my poll! (How do you do block quotes on KOS?)
