THE LINEUP -
Meet The Press: Author and Sen. Jim Webb (D-VA). Very Serious Discourse with failed senate candidate Harold Ford Jr. (DLC-TN), rapist paroler Mike Huckabee, GOP strategist Mike Murphy, and finally Bob "0-8" Shrum gives his expert and-he-should-know analysis on the failures of the Clinton presidential campaign.
Tweety: Clarence Page, Norah O'Donnell, Gloria Berger, Andrew Sullivan.
Quotes here. Interesting Clarence Page quote there.This Weak: Joe Biden (D-BULLSHIT!!) and Worst House Minority Leader in History John Boehner (R-Effexor). Matt Bai (who's book has just been made irrelevant by the Obama campaign), gop-trasher Peggy Noonan, Donna Brazile and George Will.
Face The Nation: Missing-in-Action Gov. Charlie Crist (R-McSame), GOP strategist Ed Rollins, Ex-Gov. Mario Cuomo (D) and ex-CO Gov. Roy Romer (D). Empty-Seat Charlie is without a doubt the laziest governor in the United States.
Faux News: American Patriot Chris Dodd, Sen. Jon Kyl (R-AZ) and Karl Rove who is on Frog-March Watch.
Late Edition with Wolf: Commerce Sec. Carlos Gutierrez and lobbyist Trent Lott (R-MS). John King, Jessica Yellin and Dana Bash talk about how anytime McSame links himself with Bush, it means he's winning.
60 Minutes: Iraqi informants, Indonesia's Garden of Eden, and best of all:
Livin on a Prayer with Jon Bon Jovi!

We won't have Dean Broder to kick around anymore.
So many greatest hits to choose from to honor the hackery of Dean Broder, but he's really summed up best in the infamous quote about Bill Clinton in the White House:
"He came in here and he trashed the place," says Washington Post columnist David Broder, "and it's not his place."

True Appeasement:
_______________________________________________________________________
McSame dropped SIX lobbyists from his campaign in the last week alone. At this rate, he'll be heading into the fall campaign with only his bus driver left on staff:
In the past week, six lobbyists have resigned from the McCain campaign under questions about their ties to foreign regimes and corporate interests. Doug Goodyear and Doug Davenport - both high level aides - resigned over their ties to the Burmese junta. Eric Burgeson, McCain's energy and environmental advisor, left due to his ties with the White House and the energy industry - particularly the "clean" coal and nuclear industries.
These disclosures have caused the McCain campaign to begin to re-vet everyone on staff, a highly disruptive and embarrasing procedure. Today, that new policy claimed it's first victims - both Susan Nelson, a consultant, and Tom Loeffler, the national finance co-chair, have left the McCain campaign.
Meanwhile, McSame head honcho Charlie Black lobbied for some really sick and evil people:
- Ahmed Chalabi, the smooth talking Iraqi exile who helped manufacture the WMD charges against Saddam Hussien that led the U.S. to invade. - Philippine dictator Ferdinand Marcos, found guilty of torture, executions, disappearances, and human rights violations, who hired Black to "improve" his image in the U.S. - Somali dictator Mohamed Siad Barre, who's army massacred between 40,000 and 50,000 civilians in two years. - Dictator Mobuto Sese Seko of Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of Congo), who amassed a vast personal fortune and repressed rival political parties while his country's children starved. - Angolan rebel leader Jonas Savimbi of UNITA, an ally of apartheid-era South Africa, who started a civil war which claimed hundreds of thousands of lives and ordered the torture and murder of countless opponents. - Nigerian Dictator Ibrahim Babangida ran a one-party regime, who arrested his opponents, and murdered journalists.
Doh!

Bringing more shady characters into government if he wins in November.
There's a reason he's called McSame.
