Because ramming the truth down a wingnut's throat is "crazed."
I KNEW there was a reason I didn't like Ben Ginsberg: You may recall the controversy that erupted in the 2004 elections when it was learned that GOP power lawyer Ben Ginsberg was representing both the Bush-Cheney '04 campaign and Swift Boat Veterans for Truth. Ginsberg resigned from the Bush campaign, but his firm, Patton Boggs, still represents the Swift Boaters, collecting more than $275,000 in fees from the group since June 2005. Meanwhile, according to his bio, Ginsberg represents the RNC, NRSC, NRCC and the Republican Governors Association.
As I said, these are very fine legal distinctions.
I'm OK with that. At least ONE fucking Democrat is showing some passion.
And if it gets some people to watch, they'll hear the truth - on FOX - for a change.

Terry C
Because Clinton doesn't give a shit who he goes up against. He takes on all comers and if they try their little brownshirt tricks, he'll fucking mop up the floor with them.
In fact, I'm sure he knew that smarmy little prick Wallace would try to "blindside" him. Ooops - didn't work, brownshirt. I esp. like it when, after Clinton has pummeled Wallace about the face and head for several minutes, he starts whining "No mas! No mas!" and acts like he's pissy Clinton won't start talking about the subject he told Clinton he wanted to talk about in the first place, which was just his "clever" cover story to try and put Clinton in a corner.
The most recent New Yorker magazine has a very long article about Clinton's post-presidency. Quite interesting.
It's a given that Bush will not have or do anything that comes within a gazillion miles to what Clinton has accomplished.

Dennis Hastert plays a major part in Sibel's story.
From David Rose's Vanity Fair Article http://
www.informationclearingho...article9774.htm
Edmonds has given confidential testimony inside a secure Sensitive Compartmented Information facility on several occasions: to congressional staffers, to investigators from the O.I.G., and to the staff from the 9/11 commission. Sources familiar with this testimony say that... she reported hearing Turkish wiretap targets boast that they had a covert relationship with a very senior politician indeed—Dennis Hastert, Republican congressman from Illinois and Speaker of the House since 1999. The targets reportedly discussed giving Hastert tens of thousands of dollars in surreptitious payments in exchange for political favors and information...
Some of the (FBI wiretaps) reportedly contained what sounded like references to large scale drug shipments and other crimes. To a person who knew nothing about their context, the details were confusing and it wasn’t always clear what might be significant. One name, however, apparently stood out – a man the Turkish callers often referred to by the nickname “Denny boy.” It was the Republican congressman from Illinois and Speaker of the House, Dennis Hastert. According to some of the wiretaps, the F.B.I.’s targets had arranged for tens of thousands of dollars to be paid to Hastert’s campaign funds in small checks. Under Federal Election Commission rules, donations of less than $200 are not required to be itemized in public filings.
[]
Again, the reported content of the Chicago wiretaps may well have been sheer bravado, and there is no evidence that any payment was ever made to Hastert or his campaign. Nevertheless, a senior official at the Turkish Consulate is said to have claimed in one recording that the price for Hastert to withdraw the (Armenian Genocide) resolution would have been at least $500,000.

Nothing crazed about the current president:
THE PRESIDENT: I'll give you a quick tour before our interview. So, the first thing that a President does, which I didn't realize, was pick a rug. I have no idea about rugs. And so in this job you've got to delegate. The American President is in a position where there's just unbelievable complexities to the job -- Darfur, Iran -- a whole lot of issues. So I delegated the decision about the rug to my wife.
The second thing a President has got to do is have a strategic mind. In order to be successful, in my judgment, as the President, you've got to constantly think strategically. And so I said to her, you pick out the colors, you be the tactical person, but I want it to say "optimistic person." That's all I wanted it to say. Here is the result. Isn't it beautiful?
Q: Yes, it is very beautiful.

In the U.S., suppression of voter turnout has been around as long as elections. It's a standard sleazy tactic, and all parties do it.
I've noticed an interesting angle in an election for the State House. The incumbent is a dem. Her challenger had sent out a bunch of mailers, walked in the fair parade, and given out stickers. Nowhere did I see mentioned her party affiliation or who she was running against until just recently. I know who the rep is but don't pay attention to the number of the district.
She's seems like she was trying to hide the fact that she was republican and was just trying to garner some name recognition.
"War, as French politician Georges Clemenceau said, is a series of catastrophes that result in victory,"
- Donald Rumsfeld, Tuesday, August 29, at the American Legion convention.
American Legion.
The same assholes who wanted to overthrow FDR?
The same morons whose leadership wanted them to beat up opponents of the Iraq clusterfuck?
Those idiots will buy anything, won't they?

Is it about time, I'm sick and tired of Friedman's stupid meme, "it was a failure of imagination".
NO it wasn't!
Bush knew, he just didn't do anything. He sit there and listen to his August 6th briefing AND DIDN'T RESPOND. just like with Katrina.
In words of Howard Dean - WHAT I WANT TO KNOW IS HOW MANY TIMES BUSH WAS TOLD TO TAKE TERRORISM SERIOUSLY - AND STILL FAIL TO DO ANYTHING FOR 9 MONTHS IN OFFICE

"Anyone know if Al Qaeda has offed O'Wanker yet?"
No, but Dr. No and Goldfinger made a run at him. Missed, unfortunately.
on Hannity: "a scary thing it is that he can go on and on with impunity and that there is never a serious opponent with the same skill set."
Skill set schmill set, he is a dud.

I'll take "crazed" over "petulant, tipsy, and pig-ignorant beyond any hope of redemption" any day of the week.
LOOKEE, MAW, HE'S ON TH' TELLY-VISION A-WAGGIN THAT THAR FINGER AG'IN LIKE HE DOES! WAG WAG WAG! AW, SHIT, IT DON'T GIT ANY FUNNIER 'N THAT!
Man, right wingers are so simple to entertain and govern. I honestly can't decide on what the easiest fucking job on the planet is: a Republican politician or a conservative pundit.

You know, for my beloved Bill to go on Fox and slap Chris Matthews around with that laser-sharp intelligence and boldness of his -- and the power of truth -- is EXACTLY what he should be doing.
I'd like to see him on every single wingnut cable show, doing the same thing, over and over again. The man's a freaking superhero with bullets bouncing off him everywhere. It's a hell of a show. People tune in to that kind of thing. It's dramatic -- they tune in expecting their hero to wipe the floor with the guy they hate, and look what happens! Dramatic reversal! Their guy ends up looking like a moron! It's pro wrestling! Showbiz! The wingnuts like to see anyone get their heads handed to them, and Bill can do it with style and fireworks. I'd love to see him keep doing this for the next two years & some (please god, keep him healthy), until we take both houses and the White House.

Bush didn't only sit there for 11 minutes looking like someone's pet goat, but he gave a press conference after his tete a tete with the kids IN THAT SAME SCHOOL, surrounded by children. On that tragic day, with so many dangerous and unforeseen incidents happening, the prez of the U.S. hangs out in an elementary school, putting little children in possible harm's way! He has been nothing but transparently cowardly in his every moment as president.

Chris Wallace, son of CBS's Mike Wallace, not Chris Matthews, brother of Jim Matthews, republican candidate for lieutenant governor of Pennsylvania.

Via AP:
U.S. fatalities in war exceed those from Sept. 11
Military deaths in Iraq, Afghanistan reach 2,974
WASHINGTON - Now the death toll is 9/11 times two.
U.S. military deaths from Iraq and Afghanistan now surpass those of the most devastating terrorist attack in America’s history, the trigger for what came next.
The latest milestone for a country at war came Friday without commemoration. It came without the precision of knowing who was the 2,974th to die in conflict. The terrorist attacks killed 2,973 victims in New York, Washington and Pennsylvania
Yep, just another number. Keep diggin' that hole George, every new body makes us safer (if not safe).
Shit...

Apparently Clinton no longer is crazed, he's just had a 'strong reaction'.

About damn time that somebody got crazed about the continuous lies.
Hey, Democrats, you know exactly what they will say when you go on the offensive. There is NO uncertainty about their reaction; they always spew the same lines (wingnut talking points).
Show some gumption and grow a pair, will you? Nothing is at stake here except the future of freedom and democracy in this country.
