Yesterday was a slow news day. Here’s some of what happened.
CIA said Justice Department investigating its destruction of evidence will not give them enough time to destroy more evidence. Wait… it will hinder their own investigation. Or something.
In the “gee, ya’ think?” category, we’ve got “Ohio elections official calls machines flawed.”
WaPo continues their Frontrunners feature [...]
It seemed obvious that the law & order wing of the Republican party (not to mention the anti-taxers, the economic conservatives, etc.) would not be pleased with a Mike Huckabee nomination.
That said, perhaps you’ve heard of the new attack that broke today at huckabeefacts.com, a site set up for the exclusive purpose of releasing a [...]
Round-up of the big news leading the papers and outlets today.
Twin bombs in Algiers kill dozens, including 11 UN staffers; al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb claim responsibility.
Punishments retroactively lightened for some offenses related to crack cocaine following Supreme Court decision.
Republicans hold on to 2 House seats they were heavily favored to win but many [...]
First off, who in the hell let Alan Keyes in the room? Has he ever won anything in his entire political career?

Ostensibly this will help propel him out of [...]
Here’s that excellent video from Sunday’s Meet the Press with Tim Russert in which Giuliani giggles himself hysterical to subconsciously downplay his business dealings with known terrorists. Seriously.
And if you’re interested in watching the whole thing, which you damn well should be, you can check it out (after a brief [...]
Here are some of the articles floating around that may end up beating down the Huckmentum before it has a chance to really take hold. The only question is who’s going to rise from the ashes of all of these Republican scandals and be the last man standing? McCain? Thompson? They’re [...]
I’ve blogged before, but this is the new one. It will be newsy. Less opinionated than before, but there will be some.
This blog is almost entirely for me. Not that I don’t care about you, but I care more about me. I follow a lot of political news, and it can [...]
