In the wake of the outbreak of the Russian-Georgian War over Ossetia, Georgia wants to withdraw the 2,000 troops it has in Iraq. These troops appear to have been based in Diyala or Wasit provinces, where they have been preventing Shiite militiamen from smuggling arms in from Iran. Although the US military is playing down the impact of their withdrawal, it seems to me significant. The Iraqi army certainly could not be counted on to take up their work, since so much of it was recruited from Shiite militias. The US would have to divert 2,000 men to this dangerous task (and it is intrinsically dangerous to have US troops directly on the Iranian border). The Georgians beefed up their presence because they are trying to join NATO; from a Russian point of view this development is highly undesirable, which is part of the point of the fighting over Ossetia.
All this is not to mention that a US airlift of 2000 Georgian troops to fight Russian ones at this juncture does not look friendly to Moscow.

He rolled the dice and lost.
Now the SCLM is acting like a bunch of Victorian nannies because they were lied to.

Will Eric Holder Become the Next Attorney General? Posted Jun 5, 2008, 07:22 am CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
Former deputy attorney general Eric Holder, the co-chair of Barack Obama’s presidential campaign, is considered a likely candidate for attorney general if his candidate wins the presidency. But would he take the job?
Holder, a partner at Covington & Burling, appears reluctant to take it on, the American Lawyer reports in a profile. In a radio talk show interview, Holder fielded a question about whether he will become the first black attorney general in an Obama administration. He answered this way:
"I got to tell you, that's going to be up to the president," he said. "And I will not be the president. I will also tell you that I am married to a wonderful woman who is a doctor. Her name is Sharon Malone. And Sharon Malone tells me that I won't be going anywhere except back to my law firm. So I think President Obama is going to have to talk to Sharon, and she's a pretty formidable person."
The American Lawyer takes that answer with a grain of salt. “The henpecked-husband routine shouldn't fool anyone,” the story says. “If President Obama asks his campaign co-chair to become the first African American attorney general of the United States, count on history to win out.”

In a related story, medical doctors were shocked - shocked! - to discover in a new study how often the NYT and WaPo just fucking lie to their readers.
The study reviewed American daily newspapers that were most prolific about this [Schiavo] story: the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Tampa Tribune and the St. Petersburg Times.

"In the course of our research, we were surprised by the amount of medical inaccuracies that these newspapers had published, said Dr. Racine.

Attractive straight men should think twice before getting married young.
There's Edwards, 24 years old and impossibly cute, marrying a woman four years older than him.
Hate to say it, and I wish the world was different than it is, but if his brain was screwed on tight, he would have thought about the implications of a lifetime of fidelity, the temptations which would inevitably come his way.
Better to be single and honest than married; lying and cheating.

But Mr. Downie said it was not clear to him why the F.B.I. was interested in his reporters’ records in the first place.
“I want to find more about what this is about,” he said. “We will be asking our general counsel to advise us on what more we should be doing about this.”
But the fact remains that no one can claim with certainty that his or her communications were monitored. The likelihood of prevailing -- or even getting very far -- with such lawsuits is low. The litigation seems aimed as much at using the tools of discovery to dislodge information about what the administration actually did as it is at redressing unknown injuries. The telecommunications companies complied with a government request after being assured, in writing, that the activities had been authorized by the president and deemed lawful by the attorney general. Punishing them by forcing them to endure the cost and hassle of lawsuits would be counterproductive to securing such cooperation in the future, while offering little prospect of a useful outcome.
yeah, well, good luck with your legal inquiry and everything.
ps - when you don't hold your government to the rule of law this is what happens!

I think it was being a cad, but I don't give a fuck. I care about the Supreme Court. Edwards wanted to win more, than worry about this coming out. If you know you have a skeleton in the closet that could create a Republican win, you don't run.
I don't give a shit if it was his dick, his accounting practices, or if he snorted coke off a pool boy. He knew that this could swing the independents who can name all six brady bunch kids, but can't name 2 Supreme Court justices.

I love the "online" coverage.
No announcers. A "commentary" box on the screen. No "backstory" about the athlete's travails.
The point I intended to make is that I find hating on him with such intensity now bizzarre, since his misdeeds are of no consequence to anybody but him now.
I don't give a shit who John Edwards fucks. He lied to me. I gave him my money, my vote, and my support . . . and he lied to me.
My co-workers are the swing voters. They give a shit about stories like this. Sorry, but they do.
I wish it were different. It isn't. They worry about flag pins, the pledge of allegiance, "bitter". They are nominally democrats, but will vote for Republicans too.

joanie, this goes to what you were saying, I think:
It's not like they didn't know it was there," said Mark Feldstein, a former investigative reporter who teaches journalism at George Washington University.
"Proof is the biggest issue," Feldstein said. "The National Enquirer is not well-regarded as a news source by the news media."
Last year the National Enquirer published a story alleging that Edwards had an extramarital affair. It reported last month that the former senator had fathered a "love child." Readers of the popular if trashy weekly — perhaps some who only glance at the headlines at the checkout counter — joined the political enemies of the handsome Democrat in asking why other news media were not carrying the story.
It looks like my Dish package includes at least 3 channels of continuous hi-def olympics coverage. I wish I had time to watch it.

The only thing that has backfired is the Paris Hilton ad. They all thought that was stupid.
They were outraged that Obama wouldn't say the pledge, or wear a flag pin, or Rev Wright and it just gets so tiring to hear all that crap and have to explain to these people that it is bullshit.
They might believe that McCain had an affair 20 years ago, but if Edwards was the nominee and this story came out like in October, they would all have voted McCain. They are all still leaning Obama, but there is alot of stupid out there.

I think you misunderstand me. Those would be my words to a Repub that brought it up to me, heavy on the snark, but with a fake smile on my face, I could schmooze a fundy or Repuke woman if I thought it put some questions in her head.
As the American team entered, however--and as the TVs blared Springsteen’s "Born in the USA"--the camera panned to capture a scene of George W. Bush sitting with Laura, not far from Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin. As soon as the camera centered on the Bush’s, a spontaneous boo erupted across the restaurant, catching the four of us by surprise. We looked at each other, not sure if what we were hearing was real. Convinced that it was, we joined in.
As quickly as it started, the cameras shifted away and the boo-ers went back to drinking beer and talking. Once we started bowling an hour later, I completely forgot about it. It wasn’t a big deal, really, but I thought I’d share the story of what happens when President Bush shows his mug on TV in a restaurant deep in the heart of Texas--not 10 miles from the future site of the George W. Bush Presidential Library.

Yes, and use it to turn the conversation and open up some issues on John McCain.
Yes it's so sad how women put up with this. For example how did McCain's first wife feel about his affair with Cindy, and for that matter how does Cindy feel when John call her a trollop and c*nt?
Yes, I believe you are right Michelle would handle this best.
Elizabeth Edwards is a fragile flower and the menfolk must protect her.
Good Lord...
I think you misunderstand me. Those would be my words to a Repub that brought it up to me, heavy on the snark, but with a fake smile on my face, I could schmooze a fundy or Repuke woman if I thought it put some questions in her head.

The event was sponsored by a few local media outfits and Lockheed Martin. I brought this to our group's attention. My mom asked me who the heck they were and I told her: they build missiles.

For me, it's just that the other main ingrediants of pesto are fat (olive oil), fat(parmesan), and fat(pine nuts). That's just too rich for me -- I feel it smothers the nice, clean herbal flavor of the basil. When I have fresh basil with pasta, I usually put it with just some sauteed diced fresh tomatoes, garlic, onions, white wine, and a bit of olive oil.

Group Plans Campaign Against G.O.P. Donors
By MICHAEL LUO
Nearly 10,000 of the biggest donors to Republican candidates and causes across the country will probably receive a foreboding “warning” letter in the mail next week.
The letter is an opening shot across the bow from an unusual new outside political group on the left that is poised to engage in hardball tactics to prevent similar groups on the right from getting off the ground this fall.
Led by Tom Matzzie, a liberal political operative who has been involved with some prominent left-wing efforts in recent years, the newly formed nonprofit group, Accountable America, is planning to confront donors to conservative groups, hoping to create a chilling effect that will dry up contributions.
“We want to stop the Swift Boating before it gets off the ground,” said Mr. Matzzie, who described his effort as “going for the jugular.”
The warning letter is intended as a first step, alerting donors who might be considering giving to right-wing groups to a variety of potential dangers, including legal trouble, public exposure and watchdog groups digging through their lives.
That's the only kind I really like, although I imagine there are other similarly un-junipery products out there these days that I haven't tried yet.

It was +35 years ago in a northern Italian village. The most respected man there had been a POW, caught in Ethiopia and sent to spend the war in Toledo Ohio. In Toledo, they paid him enough to come back and be wealthy. He invited me and my archaeology friends to his house. He served us grappa. We were used to some cheap wine and pitchers of beer at pizza parlors. The grappa was like jet fuel.

The problem with Edwards is that he should have been Attorney General in an Obama administration, and now he can't be.

Well - what if he has himself annointed with Crisco and promises to cover up all those obscene statues again?

Interesting:
"Mycobacterium avium paratuberculosis: Infrequent Human Pathogen or Public Health Threat?" August 2008
People with Crohn’s disease (CD) are seven-fold more likely to have in their gut tissues the bacterium that causes a digestive-tract disease in cattle called Johne’s disease. The role this bacterium may or may not play in causing CD is a top research priority. This report points out that the cause of Crohn’s disease is unknown, and the possible role of this bacterium, which could conceivably be passed up the food chain to people, has received too little attention from the research community.
Article says Bart Siegal was an accountant.

Lying about bribery is totally not as bad as lying about sex.
On Oct. 8, 1989, The Arizona Republic revealed that McCain's wife and her father had invested $359,100 in a Keating shopping center in April 1986, a year before McCain met with the regulators. ..."You're a liar," McCain said when a Republic reporter asked him about the business relationship between his wife and Keating.

I loved the Bernie Mac Show.
But Bernie Mac was an edgy comedian on stage. I don't know why Obama would expect anything else.
If Obama wanted Bill Cosby humor, he should have hired Bill Cosby.
Telling Bernie Mac to "clean up his act" was like repudiating Mac's entire career. You'd almost think Obama was unfamiliar with Mac's act, but that seems unlikely. They lived in the same damn city. "The Original Kings of Comedy" was a huge hit. Mac did lots of fundraisers in the Chicago area.
That was probably a big bummer for Bernie, to have Obama kind of piss on him like that.
Anyway, I'm sad Bernie Mac is dead. He made me laugh.

with regard to the Sturgis event by the mcsames:
very upsetting to see a man running for president volunteer his wife to participate in a raunch-filled "beauty" pageant.
bad enough if it were a real beauty pageant. and worse still that she smiled and loved it.
the man is the worst sort of misogynist and adulterer. an teenager in an old man's body.

Wingnut/Corporate Media Logic:
It is a huge scandal that a Dem who dropped out of the race months ago had an affair, but it is not even worth mentioning that the Repig nominee for President had multiple affairs.
Repig adulterers can be Speaker of the House (Gingrinch) and presidential candidates (McSame, Dole). They can blow guys in airport bathrooms and not lose their Senate seats.
But Edwards' affair is a scandalous OhMyGodWhoWillSaveTheChildren moral emergency and he can never participate in politics again.
