Despite the fact that 1115.org world headquarters (my palatial imitation apartment) is within sight of YouTube world headquarters here in sunny San Bruno, CA, I don’t have much use for posting or watching (with just one exception) video online. Something about the grainy video, compressed sound, and inability to download just doesn’t work for […]
Karl Rove (8/19/07):
“With the strong candidates we’ve got — (Sen. John) McCain, (former Sen. Fred) Thompson, (former Gov. Mitt) Romney, (former Mayor Rudy) Giuliani and others — we’ll have an excellent chance to keep the White House,” Rove said.
Karl Rove (10/24/06):
ROVE: I’m looking at all of these Robert and adding them up. I add up […]
I was completely out of the loop when word came down that Karl Rove became the latest rat jumping off the sinking White House ship, and forgive me if I’m not exactly as excited as everyone else seems to be. While Rove might not be the brain bug he once appeared to be, the […]
The Bush administration has decided that we’re not executed prisoners fast enough. Presumably, too many were surviving till DNA testing — or other new evidence — proved their innocence. And then you have the whole big mess of having to release them, which not only causes loss-of-face to the system and the people […]
Any day now, Birnam Wood will be marching to Dunsinane.
If you caught the Macbeth reference, go ahead and take a bow. In the particular version of Macbeth that we are privileged to witness, Bill O’Reilly has cast himself as the three witches (yes, all three, a task he is easily equal to). There […]
Chris Matthews is being Chris Matthews again. On a good day, he can easily give Bill O’Reilly a run for his money. This time he decided to practice a little bit of good old sexual harassment, the old-fashioned kind.
After a long report by CNBC‘s Erin Burnett on the recent behavior of the stock […]
Who would have thought that Rove would ever resign? Of those, who would have thought Rove would resign before Buttercheeks? But resign he has, with the thinnest of “family reasons” fig leafs.
“There’s always something that can keep you here, and as much as I’d like to be here, I’ve got to do this […]
Wayne Barrett has written a piece in the Village Voice about Rudee.
If Rudee somehow still entertained any residual hopes of capturing the Republican nomination, this article should have put paid to them with absolute finality. In 6,758 hard-hitting words, Rudee’s trousers are surgically removed beyond any hope of re-covery. When […]
On August 1, I wrote about Army Secretary Pete Geren official verdict on the Army’s handling of Pat Tillman’s death.
In that post, I said that Lt. Gen. Philip Kensinger had “been rapped on the knuckles censured”, and that “several others also had their knuckles rapped, but more lightly”.
Here’s how lightly:
Official reprimands issued to three high-ranking […]
I wouldn’t have believed it was humanly possible. But someone is competing with the demented Georgie for the Lifetime Achievement Award for “Most Shameless and Cynical Exploitation of 9/11 by a Politician”. And winning.
In Ohio on Thursday, Republican presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani R-NY handed his critics new ammunition regarding his role surrounding 9/11.
Speaking […]
