The Entire Democratic Primary in 1 1/2 minutes

The website 23/6 has managed to take the entire year and a half Democratic Primary and reduce it to one and a half minutes of video wonderfulness: http://video.236.com/services/link/bcpid1599834811/bctid1599873904 If that isn’t enough, MSNBC has put together a similar video, but 10 minutes long. It is actually worth a watch for some of the more interesting […]

McCainisms

Daniel Kurtzman has compiled a wonderful list of quotes from John McCain, many backed up by video! http://politicalhumor.about.com/od/johnmccain/a/mccainisms.htm Rather than repeat any of them here, just go there and read them all. You’ll be glad you did.

Forget Bush’s third term, McCain wants Cheney!

In Stephen Hayes’ 2007 biography of VP Dick Cheney, McCain was asked if Cheney might serve in a McCain administration. McCain’s response? “Hell, Yeah”. In 2004 McCain called Cheney “one of the most capable, experienced, intelligent and steady vice presidents this country has ever had.” Of course, now that he is running for president, McCain […]

Iraq is not South Korea, it is more like Viet Nam

On NBC’s “Today” show, Matt Lauer asked John McCain about the surge strategy in Iraq: “If it’s working Senator, do you now have a better estimate of when American forces can come home from Iraq?” McCain’s response: No, but that’s not too important.

Bill Kristol: a history of being wrong

Speaking of Fox News, here’s a quote from Sunday December 17, 2006: Barack Obama is not going to beat Hillary Clinton in a single democratic primary. I’ll predict that right now.  Who said it? Conservative Bill Kristol. As Mark Nickolas (the guy who dug up this gem) says, “This is why so many people laugh […]

Fist bump: is Fox News trying to be provocative or just stupid?

Just before Obama’s nationally televised speech on June 3, he and his wife did a “fist bump”. Apparently, Fox News is so out of it that they had never seen this before, and had to ask if this was (and I’m not making this up) “A terrorist fist jab?” Attention Fox News, there is this […]

War profiteering and cronyism

Couldn’t the lapdog media in the US have done this?  It took an investigation by the BBC to find out that an estimated $23 BILLION has been lost, stolen, or “merely” not accounted for in Iraq. To date, no major US contractor has been indicted for these stunning abuses. Why can’t we hear about this […]

McCain, ambushed again by the (YouTube) truth

When will McCain learn that you can’t just deny that you said something, when anyone can just look it up on the innertubes?

But will he actually do anything about it?

Death to Israel … Death to Traffic

While our politicians argue about whether we should bomb Iran or meet with their leaders, the well-known travel writer Rick Steves takes a film crew to Iran and finds, according to him, some of the friendliest people on the planet. It’s ironic that in most countries these days, Americans find they’re better off keeping a […]
