Wolf Blitzer just announced that Democrats are descending upon Las Vegas.

Hi Vicki.
Hi ql!

I had nothing to do with it! I was under MoDo's chair, trying to crawl up her dress.

I'm really not sure how you can write a catty article about Kos, but...I guess we'll find out.
The World Cup is a better model for democratic victory.
Study the crowd dynamics at these events.
Fuck Kos, we need a revolution and a terror.
Tom Daschle? Oh, hot damn.
Al Gore said he had no plans to run on Leno last night.
However, he didn't state it as an absolute.
I'd love his opinion on Ann Coulter.
Hopefully, markos wasn't wearing earth tones. That will be the narrative for MoDo.

She's quite bright and charming in person.

i think that counts as the stupidest thing ever attributed to him, really...

At least the troll who would be Atrios' butt-boy is not around, for the moment.
Watching Markos being interviewed by Maureen Dowd.
Did he tell her to fuck off?
Why not???
a good outside bet, Ivory Coast to get to the final.

I can't believe my red state blue city newspaper had an article on yearlykos this morning. Aside from printing the snide insults from Marshall Mooseboy, it wasn't too bad.

From the Liberal New York Fucking Times:
LAS VEGAS, June 9 — Hundreds of liberal (they'd say progressive) Internet bloggers crawled out of their cybertunnels for face-time and political networking here at the first-ever YearlyKos convention.
How do you have a conversation with her with mocking her to her face? I would not be able to resist. "Hey, you remember that one time you made up that fake NASCAR quote? Why didn't you get fired? Do you suck like that on purpose? If Al Gore walked up to you and spit in your face, would you say 'thank you' first or 'I deserved that'?"
I'd love his opinion on Ann Coulter.
Vicki, Who ♥ Al Gore
As the most intelligent man on the planet, she is beneath his notice.
A cup-a-noodles is a better model for my brain activity.
Study the fluid dynamics of the fat.
Fuck this, I need an enema.
Funny, kos said 'meta' about 15 times in 20 seconds.
She's quite bright and charming in person.
I like to listen to her talk. I just think she's got a really weird philosophy about the little things in life illuminating the big picture.
It's like she took "feminist epistemology" and blended it with high-school gossip culture.
Why aren't I on this panel at
Yearlykos?
Did he tell her to fuck off?
Why not???
I'm telling you, she's really hard to dislike in person.
Believe me, I tried.
Couldn't do it. She's also much better looking in person than she is on camera.

Good thing that's not pejorative or anything.
One of the guys on the panel just said he doesn't like the word meta. That's a relief!

If not, speak now. Your silence allows her to be your spokesman."'

'A Foxboro woman whose husband was killed during the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks wants a public apology from conservative commentator Ann Coulter for a new book claiming that some 9-11 widows are `` reveling in their status as celebrities.'''
'McGinty has not been politically outspoken in wake of the terrorist attacks.
She has organized a Family Fun Day in Foxboro annually to celebrate her husband's love of community and to raise funds for a scholarship in his name.'
And not a single mention of Atrios, Eschaton or that Duncan guy (whoever he is).

Ah- that explains why that woman is Armondo.

BREAKING--MURTHA V. HOYER
Major news from the House: Pennyslvania Congressman John Murtha has begun delivering a letter to his Democratic House colleagues announcing plans, should Democrats retake the House this fall, to seek the number-two job of House Majority Leader. This would almost certainly entail a showdown with the current House Minority Whip, Steny Hoyer. I just called Murtha's press secretary, who confirmed the letter and read me the following statement from Murtha:
Our goal is to win the House back and if there is an open seat I'm the candidate.
As readers will probably know, Murtha is a close ally of Nancy Pelosi who favors a fast withdrawal from Iraq. Hoyer is more inclined to tough it out in Iraq, and has a long history of friction with Pelosi.
Steny Hoyer's office has given me its own statement in response:
Mr. Hoyer has worked extraordinarily hard to unify the caucus and take back the House for Democrats and that is his first focus. As a result of that unity he is confident that we will be successful in November and intends to run for Majority Leader. He believes his work as whip, caucus chair, and with the DCCC has earned the support of the overwhelming majority of House Democrats.
Adds a senior Democratic aide: "A lot of members are very angry that Jack Murtha has decided to blow up the caucus and declare a leadership race when we are the most unified we've been in years. We're really focused on taking back the house and should not be distracted with a leadership race. It's going to be a huge diversion."
And I won't forgive her for helping to trash Gore in 2000.

'Richard Klein sold a few hundred copies of Ann Coulter's new book Wednesday when the conservative commentator appeared at his Huntington bookstore, but he may think twice before inviting her back.
"There has been an adverse reaction, more than I anticipated," said Klein, co-owner of the Book Revue. "I may have made a mistake."
The Book Revue co-owner said some regular customers objected to Coulter's appearance to promote the book, in which she calls widows of some 9/11 victims "witches" and "harpies." During the appearance, Coulter ripped up a letter from a Huntington Town Board member who objected to her comments.'
'The Huntington Town Board member, Mark Cuthbertson, said he received about 25 phone calls and an equal number of e-mails yesterday about his confrontation with Coulter. He said 95 percent of the correspondents supported him.
"They really are appalled by her lack of sensitivity," Cuthbertson said. "The negative phone caller said I should stick to sponsoring tulip festivals."'

I'm not at all clear on why they'd let Byron York sit in at Traitorfest '06. You know he's not going to write anything remotely fair. I'd think it would be better just to let him go back crying "they won't let me in" than having another "Night of the Living Liberals" book come out in 3 months.
I mean, fuck him. What is the upside to letting him in?
Murtha will run for House leadership if Dems win this fall

I don't know how Nancy feels about this, but I think it's a good thing to have this kind of competition. Keeps everybody doing their best.

No Marcia - she would be the Speaker of the House! He'd be the Majority Leader. a good team, don't you think??!!
However, denizens of this watering hole really should know better than to fall for it. Especially when it comes to MoDo...
To her credit, she got a LOT of very tough questions, and she didn't duck any of them.
And she was quite tough on the times as well. And you all would have loved hearing her crucify Judy Miller.
How is asking Maureen Dowd a straightford, direct but DIFFICULT question a "shiv in the kidneys"?? Seriously. Stunt Woman
Seriously? Well I conflated your attack on 4lg with your position from last week that any member of the military who goes to Iraq is a murderer and deserves naught but scorn and death. The impression you've been building from my reading of your comments over time is that you have a fairly rigid ethos and an unyielding conviction that yours is the right one and that anyone who fails to meet your standards is some variety of ass.
Uhh, not that there's anything wrong with that....
I'm confused,
Do we hate Kos this week or do we love him?
I only ask because reading him is actually more than I am willing to do.
I get enough sleep as it is.
Remember:
Murtha's not opposed to the war...
Just to the way it's being mismanaged...

Stunt woman, Cool it, man.
You obviously don't know fourlegsgood like many of us do.
I'm not trashing fourlegs. I'm just disturbed by the sentiment.
I'm not surprised that Dowd is "friendly" in person. Not surprised at all. But before I would ever be "friendly" with her, she's got some serious splainin' to do.
Trying to be friends with her without that splainin' is simply a pointless endeavor, unless one is really really desperate for friends.
I mean, fuck him. What is the upside to letting him in?

I think Annthrax Coulter should just be ignored.
She's so obviously a pathological and pernicious liar that there is no reason to pay any attention to her at all.
She will continue to publish her tripe, which will continue to be bought by the dimwits who want to believe the lies she's selling.
It's a cottage industry of delusion and hate.
Let her and her dupe audience rot in hell for all I care. I wouldn't pay enough attention to piss on her if she caught fire.
In the dim future we'll be lorded over by lawmen and doctors.

but shouldn't we have celebrated more the defeat of 10 commandments judge roy moore?
I was rooting for Judge Roy Moore, actually. That was a primary race. How lovely to have the only choice be a Democrat and a foamy-mouthed extremist from the Christian Right. Let's get these nut jobs on the ballot and have Republicans see what has become of their party. They invited these wackos to the table, now they need to own it, not hide from it.
...as for the Murtha story, it started on a troll haven(TNR) and I think it sounds like the usual ratfuck piece that is supposed to paint Dems as fractured...

"Atrios" and "frist" were mentioned in response to a newbie Kossack who asked how in the world to navigate in Koz and how intimidated he felt. They told him not to worry, just jump in..... every site is different, some are so casual that greetings like Frist! are welcome (it got a laugh).
OK, kids, I'm out for the weekend. Gotta go wish the little sister my best for her African Adventure.
Talk to you all on Monday . . .

I don't know how Nancy feels about this.
Nancy can kiss my black ass. She has sucked as a minority leader.

Who said anything about being friends?
You're being ridiculous.
I followed the Moore story a little bit. He got his ass handed to him. The winner got over 60 percent of the vote, nearly 2 to 1 over Moore.

I met Caroline Daniel of the Financial Times not long ago. Despite her being very charming, I asked her why the DC press refuses to burn its sources when it becomes obvious they've lied to them. She said the problem is that if you do that none of your other sources will keep talking to you. She also said it is then the reporter's duty to quit talking to the liars.
MoDo will say whatever/make shit up about Kos and the "liberal" blogosphere. You can count on it.

To any newcomers on the blog today, please don't think Stunt Woman or dith are characteristic of blog discourse. This is a loving place ... most of the time.

It would have been interesting to see whether the MSM spun Moore's defeat with the same "the Republicans have moved too far to the right" spin they use when a Democrat "moves to far to the left" in their opinion. Anyway, it will be interesting to see whether, if Hashem forbid the Republican wins, the media will say something about "it was a good thing for the Republicans the whacko didn't win the primary" or if he looses whether there will be a lot of bloviating about "divisive primaries" which expose the party's "rabid base for all to see" (a la how they would spin a Dem. loosing in a parallel situation) or whether they go the other way and say something about the Republicans needing to nominate someone further right next time to get out the vote of the base (they would, of course, never make the parallel comment about Dems).
In any case, whatever the media reports, it'll be a subtle test of how biased against us they still are ...

Thank you for verbalizing them so well.
When much of the country is seeing and reading about you and your ideas for the very first time, it's a really good idea not to be an asshole and ruin the whole blogging thing for everyone else for years to come.
This is such a ripe comment that I can't resist another bite.
How about instead of assuming the absolute worst every time the press corps is publically questioned about its behavior, we assume that a very public (i.e., televised) very direct questioning of a televised reporter actually sparks a sincere discussion about the issues in the larger media.
For the first time, pretty much.
Is that totally impossible?
I think "the day kos asked Dowd why she told lies to screw John Kerry" would become a day worth remembering, and not because "the whole blogging thing for everyone else for years to come".
I had a brief affair two years ago with
a woman who worked at the Times (not
on hard news, but you might know her
name). A good liberal, by any standard,
as a person.
Anyway, whenever I would make any of
the standard critiques of the paper,
i.e. the sort of things we all voice
whenever the Times comes up --
Whitewater, Judy Miller, blah blah -- she
would look at me as if I was a babbling
idiot.
She simply could not wrap her mind
around the idea that the Times wasn't
a great paper with an impeccable
reputation anymore. Or that people
like MoDo were responsible for electing
Bush.

Markos won't do that, LA Times has been more progressive in comparison, despite its ownership change... NYT is stone set on the other side of the fence and will remain so as an insitution toward olgiarchs.
He'll be in a bid war between tham and sf chron/sf.gate.
A friend got a gig writing for a sports blog there off our raidersfans.net site...
Kos gets bigger numbers and will get a political interactive deal soon.
His readers put money where their hearts are, as do the readers for atrios.
If kos does this right he can get a good offer(leveraged between the two) and develop a base for activism within the big CA area locally past what is already done. Eventually papers will even try to merge via blogs to expand their revenue potential and still maintain distinct infrasturcutre for tax and busienss purposes.
The founders wrote under pen names in the federalist and antifederalist paper editorials of their day, the online community is just as engaged at this time.

Sen. Specter Admits Public is Indifferent to Domestic Spy Program
Pennsylvania US senator Arlen Specter said Vice President Cheney’s lobbying was not the only reason Specter backed off on trying to question phone companies about the president’s eavesdropping program. Another reason, he says, is public apathy.
Specter this week said he will hold off on subpoenaing the telecommunications chiefs, after failing to muster support for the move among members of the Judiciary Committee.
Specter accused Vice President Cheney of swaying members against that.
But speaking at a forum in Philadelphia, Specter also said his colleagues are not hearing a hue and cry from their constitutents:
“When you don’t have any indignation -– and there’s not really much indignation in America today about this issue -– you don’t have that kind of indignation, it's pretty hard to get members of Congress to vote subpoenas and contempt citations.”
Cheney has acknowledged talking with committee members but says that the conversations were not improper.
Run, save yourselves, Matthews is about to start slobbering over Delay.
Treating it like a sports retirement ceremony?
Bleh.
Today..ay..ay..ay.. I feel like the luckiest man, on the face of the earth.
Hi, Vicki! Is this the party weekend?
More Star Trek
"DailyKos is Jupiter."
plantsman,
It's still there. 98% full today, all the way full tomorrow. Not sure why you didn't see it.
There is a local micro-brewery which makes a decent IPA ale. I'd buy more of it but they only sell "to go" beer in these gallon jugs, which is too much beer to drink, if you don't want half of it to go flat.
I really have a hard time tolerating any person who comes here purely to vent their anger at the world.
That's nice. Guess what: find the last 200 comments of mine and show me how many of them are "venting my anger at the world."
If it's close to 100%, I'll leave her and never come back.
If not, then you admit you're a liar and fuck off.
Some arguments are actually pretty easy to resolve.

Are you confusing mainstream (i.e. an opinion, person, etc., within the realm of reasonable political discourse and in agreement with the views of a broad cross section of reasonable people) with the "mainstream" (TM) (what the media defines as acceptible discourse, typically somewhat to the right of where the MSM talking heads stand, that way they can continue to think of themselves as "liberal")?
Of course, a person with mainstream views typically will vote for "mainstream" (TM) candidates rather than those candidates also having mainstream views. Which is part of the problem Dems. have in elections lately ...
Hi pie!
Yeah! Sunday. The house is almost totally spotless - except for the kitchen. I'm going to do that tonight. Garden's in place.

DAS
I have a lot of thoughts about media bias. I do think they've started believing their own prevailing narratives, without ever recognizing that they created the narrative to begin with. Such as "the angry liberal" and "tuff on terra Republican."
On the other hand, I think a lot of the crap we read in the papers really is a result of corporatization of the media. Everything is funneled and broadcast through this one megaphone now. Local papers don't really have any reporting staff anymore, those folks cover local news of the ambulance-chasing variety.
No one does in-depth reporting anymore. Corporate owners have slashed budgets and staff, and increased the workload for existing news staff. So if you get a VNR from a company called the Karen Ryan Group, no one would think twice about running it! It didn't occur to anyone to ask, well, who hired the Karen Ryan Group?
A lot of it has to do with educating editors and newsroom staff.

What's the deal? - Stunt Woman
Last try - you're being an ass to the other posters here. No one here necessarily disagrees with your general point that reporters need to be challenged and held to account, but were you to act toward one of them on TV the way you're acting toward others here, all anyone would conclude is that you're an asshole, which is not very effective.
Whether you are purposely confusing people's responses to *you and your behavior* or not, you are creating a nice example of why making a public ass of yourself tends to obscure whatever point you're trying to make.

Take care of yourself. People are coming to the party for the people...they don't care about the kitchen floor.
LGF is Pluto, because thats not considered a planet by certain astromners.

Stunt Woman is no troll. We all have disagreements sometimes. Whatever!
I call Stunt Woman a troll because whenever he/she comes in here, he/she disrupts whatever conversation is currently taking place. Right, left or in the middle, trolls come to disrupt, not discuss.
We have enough people coming in here shitting on our living room floor as it is.
I wish I could go to Vicki's party. Instead I'll be fighting the nightly battle of bedtime to get the little beasties to go to sleep.
The docs have probably put Sallyh on a juice and water diet.
Oh well Sallyh, stick with their program, so you get better soon.
I can only imagine how disturbing a similar gathering of right-wingers would be like.

I'm loving looking at the people there. Partly because blogging is the new cool thing, and they aint kids.
Thanks, you guys! I do have to clean the kitchen tonight, though...need to buy food tomorrow, go to a grad party in the afternoon, and start cooking tomorrow night.
It'll all work out.

I do. I'm going to take surreptitious photos and post them on the internets with detailed and devastating critiques. Haloscan will be replete with all of the embarassments of Vicki's homemaking.

i heard somebody in a segment say kos gets more readership than major newspapers.
I think it was more readership than any single major paper.
There's a difference.
I hope the 10 bucks I spent to get streaming video from KosFest goes to a good cause.
I'm thinking it might not have been such a good idea, putting this on C-Span. If Digby or Greenwald or Wolcott were up there, then OK. But do we really want the nation to see these jerkoffs and thinking "That's them. Come look at the liberals, Marge."?

If Eschaton is a planet, I'd like it to be Sedna, one of the newly-discovered ones. It's named for a goddess and a blog populated by Athenae, Echidne, and various and sundry blog-goddesses should have a goddess planet.
From what Vicki has tended to say about herself in the time I've been coming here, somehow I DOUBT
it's her homemaking people notice. It's gotta be HER.

Okay, I'm gonna go nap!
I'll see all y'all later, maybe! And if not later, then on Sunday in the evening.

Mann Coulter to the Oort Cloud, STAT!
I do think they've started believing their own prevailing narratives, without ever recognizing that they created the narrative to begin with. Such as "the angry liberal" and "tuff on terra Republican." - Sr.SpikeyMaceOfQuietReflection
Judging by the hard-core "future journalists" (who were only a small fraction of the staff -- and many of the people who really wanted to be good journalists avoided the place) I worked with when I was involved with my undergrad school's newspaper, this is certainly the case: once they fixate on a certain turn of phrase, there is no use getting them to recognize when it isn't correct to use: my experience involved an editor inserting in an article of mine that a one time event was a "first annual event" because, in the editor's mindset, any event that isn't gonna be weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, decadely, etc., must be intended to occur annually. The idea of a one-time only event escaped his mindset.
FWIW, the more thoughtful of the conservatives who view the media as liberally biased (yes, these people do exist) also make the same observations about the media's silly narratives and even the media's increasing corporatization: they just have a different (IMHO, a whole lot less compelling) line of reasoning about why a more corporatized media would be more liberal and how the media narratives/lines benefit liberals rather than conservatives. Still, I have heard examples of "liberal bias" from the media that many of us here would find to be conservatively biased (e.g. the way the NPR repeats Republican spin in the guise of reporting on it while not doing the same for the Democrats: conservatives view this as highlighting that Republicans spin while it would seem that Democrats are more 'honest' whereas liberals like me view this as simply providing airtime and even an imprimateur for the Republican message without balancing it with the Democratic message).
I'm about ready to close up shop. It's been a busy, long, hard week.
Huhhuhhuhuhuh . . . he said "hard."

Later, gators.
How about instead of assuming the absolute worst every time the press corps is publically questioned about its behavior, we assume that a very public (i.e., televised) very direct questioning of a televised reporter actually sparks a sincere discussion about the issues in the larger media.
"Sincere discussion?" Just a minute ago you were discussing intimate details of Maureen Dowd's lady parts and now you're pleading for a "sincere discussion?"
I think "the day kos asked Dowd why she told lies to screw John Kerry" would become a day worth remembering
You know what? I really don't care what Kos thinks about Maureen Dowd. I really really don't. Maybe that makes me a "bad liberal" that I don't walk around all day every day seething with anger and imagining witty yet vulgar insults to be directed at Maureen Dowd were I ever to have the vision to build an online blogging empire with the power to threaten the structure of the dominant political discourse and then were she to be there at my gala extravaganza party asking me questions about my vision for American Democracy.
But I really don't care.

DAS,
A little OT but when I was a copy editor way back in the stone age, we'd always change cliches like "first annual event" because that is inaccurate. You can't be annual if you are the first. And while you can be the first with the intention of being annual, no one can predict the future. So we always changed it to "first" or "planned to be annual" or whatever.

Daily Howler assessed (rightly to me) Frank Rich as one of those "I'm smarter than you are" liberals. I think the same could be said for MoDo. That's why they hate Gore so much. They know he's smarter than they are and can't stand it.

She'll get booked all over to be (ostensibly) tut-tutted at.
Think Bob Goldthwait and the Larry Sanders show.
Maher definitely has a large tool aspect to him, definitely an arrogant narcissist, but I wouldn't compare him to Miller, who hasn't stopped peeing in his sheets since 9/11. Very few other people have told Ann Coulter to her face that she's full of shit.

Israeli attack leads Hamas to end truce
Palestinian Islamist group Hamas has shelved a 16-month-old truce with Tel Aviv after Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip killed 10 people, including three children.
Hamas, which was elected into government in January, called off the truce in a statement on Friday following deadly Israeli air strikes and artillery fire on a crowded Gaza beach that resulted in the highest Palestinian toll in a single day since late 2004.
"The Israeli massacres represent a direct opening battle and that means the earthquake in the Zionist cities will resume and the herds of occupiers have no choice but to prepare the coffins or the departing luggage," the statement by Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, said.
Sami Abu Zuhri, a Hamas spokesman, confirmed the group would renew its attacks.
Sallyh:

you're being an ass to the other posters here.
Because I got on fourlegsgood's case? That was "being an ass"? Are you "being an ass" for getting on my case? Honestly, I don't mind as long as you don't engage in bullshit smearing. I suppose I could have written some garbage about fourlegsgood and his/her "endless pointless snark" or something but ... why would I do that?
Fourlegsgood is a fine dude who just happened to write something I vehemently disagreed with and I fucking said so. Could I have written it in a more "civilized" manner? Probably. Should I have? In retrospect, no fucking doubt.
Will I apologize? Yes: fourlegsgood, I apologize for implying that I wouldn't want you on my team. I know that you didn't really mean to imply that you aren't disappointed with the presscorp and I shouldn't have implied otherwise. I'm sorry.
No one here necessarily disagrees with your general point that reporters need to be challenged and held to account, but were you to act toward one of them on TV the way you're acting toward others here,
Just show me where in my comments I advocated that kos do anything of the sort, JeffCo. Otherwise, cut the fucking inuendo, okay?
Thanks.

A little OT but when I was a copy editor way back in the stone age, we'd always change cliches like "first annual event" because that is inaccurate. You can't be annual if you are the first. And while you can be the first with the intention of being annual, no one can predict the future. So we always changed it to "first" or "planned to be annual" or whatever. - Sr.SpikeyMaceOfQuietReflection
In my case, I was looking to get hired as an opinion columnist for my school paper. To be hired by the school paper, you had to write an article for two sections of the paper, so I got myself assigned to write a fluff piece for the news section. Needless to say, I am an even worse journalist than the journalists I regularly criticize in the blogosphere (those who can't do, complain?), so I didn't end up getting hired officially, although I was an un-official opinion columnist and had one of the best records of attendence at staff meetings (I had a crush on all of the babes in the photography department 
) -- so I got a free t-shirt out of the deal (although I didn't end up getting any of the photography babes).
Anyway, in my first opinion column after the disaster of my fluff piece (which was disastrous from the beginning -- but the news editor, instead of salvaging it, managed to take all my bad writing and change it to merely mediocre but highly inaccurate writing), I actually made that point about "first annual". All the professors then fell in love with my opinion column and it was actually discussed in classes -- including the probability class I took at 9:00 AM that year. It was kinda awkward, because I always arrived at that class late, with a muffin and coffee I picked up on the way ... but this girl I had a crush on (who viewed me as a good friend, but nothing more) would save me a seat in the front -- so there would be this big production about my entry, especially on days when the class began by discussing my column.
Ah ... the sweet life of an undergrad: how little I appreciated it at the time (I was bitter 'cause I wasn't gettin' any) and how I miss it now ...
I wonder if in a few years I will look back equally fondly on grad school?
If I had balls they would smell like two week old goat cheese. Wait, I do and they do.

Oh, no doubt. We all have disagreements, get grouchy and sometimes even have bad breath. I save the grudges for the completely hateful fuckers, and Stunt Woman ain't that. I've been reading her for a long time, now.
Did I tell you my daughter loves Curly? When she sees his picture she gets all excited and says "ditty!" (kitty).
Aww. See, this is what the GWPDA Coalition has done!

mainstream with regard to his position on the war. - jello
OK ... I guess here mainstream and "mainstream" opinion coincide 'cause the mainstream just believed blindly what the MSM told them they were supposed to believe ... but I thought Kos was smart enough not to support the war in the first place.
Or do you mean that now that mainstream opinion no longer supports the war, the mainstream has come to hold the same opinions as Kos and CO?
Roofles.
DailyKos = sexual predator site.
"First-term incumbent Michael G. Fitzpatrick is touting himself as "an independent voice for Pennsylvania," even as automated phone calls from a Washington lobby with Democratic Party ties have accused him - erroneously - of failing to support Congressional ethics reform. . . .
Fitzpatrick recently introduced legislation to protect children from child predators on social networking sites such as Dailykos, Blogger and MySpace."

I followed Maher, and BTW, his writers produce hilarious monologue material, but when he started on this "Maybe I was wrong. Maybe the President was right in Iraq" fucking bullshit following that horrendous election of 2004, I knew then that he had become ratings based. He, in one fell swoop, tossed aside all the substantial critcisms he had laid at W's feet since 1999 and said "Maybe we should give this guy another chance."
It completely emasculated his position as an indifferent political pundit in my estimation.

Oh, the agony...
What's going on?
PZ Myers
Well, it really wasn't that bad. My YearlyKos panel on science consisted of me, Wendy Northcutt, Chris Mooney, and that big guy most people have heard of, Wes Clark. Clark got up there with a few brief notes and spoke extemporaneously, eating up 40 minutes of our hour and a quarter. It was good to hear a politician speak out forcefully for science and the separation of church and state, so that's what counts. He also packed the room for us, so we had a huge crowd.
If that angry atheist asshole (TM) PZ Myers liked it, then I surely would have, too!
"al-Zarqawi's death got Haditha off of the front page tout suite."
Funny that, isn't it? Why you'd almost think that . . . . Naw. - Hecate, Grammar Fag
Of course, if the shoe were on the foot (as it kinda was during the Clinton years), the righties would be shouting "wag the dog" in much less guarded language than we are. And instead of the Moonie Times reporting that only a few of the evil Dems. are calling the whole thing a stunt, every paper would either ignore the Republicans calling it a stunt or, in far more neutral terms, ask questions like "do those who claim this is merely wagging the dog have a point?" ...
You just know (based on what they did to Clinton w.r.t. his misadventure in Sudan) that the media is definitely biased here ...
So I'm getting a call right now from John Kerry supporting Jim Webb for the Democratic primary. I'm disappointed as Webb's a recent republican "convert" to our party. But I'd vote for him instead of Harris Miller if I thought he could bring down George Allen. Anyone seen any VA polls?
But LGF/StormFront/FreeRepublic etc

Up to a point. She's leveraged that dynamic her whole "career". But there are limits. And she may -- no guarantees -- have passed those limits. 9/11 is still iconic. Fucking with the icons is not good marketing.

Here you go Halfdan:
Frank’s thesis is that right-wing Republicans have managed to merge political conservatism with religious conservatism, and the result is that Christian rural voters are forced to choose between their Christian identity (pretty much all they have left) and a Godless liberalism.
That may be ignorance, but it’s certainly not stupidity, and Frank never implies that. If you were working two jobs and had three kids and your only social outlet were church, then there’s really not an opportunity for you to be as enlightened as everyone here.
ChiDyke did a whole piece around it over at Corrente.
I'm disappointed as Webb's a recent republican "convert" to our party. But I'd vote for him instead of Harris Miller if I thought he could bring down George Allen.
Hecate:
I haven't lived in VA in going on 20 years, but Harris Miller was close to a DINO even back the. I haven't seen any polls, but what I've read about Webb is that he is honestly fed up with the current Republican party. His politics are more center than right. And I think he's less likely to pander to the bastards.
