Take with several grains of salt — it did come from the NY Post rumor section — but the person refused to deny it, and it makes about as much sense as any of the rest of this mess The hot rumor in New York political circles has Roger Stone, the longtime GOP activist, as [...]

Bush: Liar or Idiot?
Posted in Politics on September 20, 2004 | 5 Comments »
Those are the only choices to explain this: President Bush might have been able to say it was simply a slip of the tongue when he confused two terrorists in a campaign speech Monday in New Hampshire. Trouble is, he’s made the same misstatement at least 10 times before. During remarks in Derry, N.H., Bush [...]
GOP: Being an Asshole Is a Campaign Strategy
Posted in Culture, Politics on September 20, 2004 | 4 Comments »
And here I thought it was just a character flaw. More and more, GOP candidates are adopting a deliberate strategy of making the most inflammatory and offensive remarks they can, to garner press attention and to fire up their winger support base. Truth, decency, and simple rational sense-making seem to have been completely abandoned as [...]

Kerry On Terrorism
Posted in General on September 20, 2004 | 2 Comments »
From the prepared remarks: The President claims it is the centerpiece of his war on terror. In fact, Iraq was a profound diversion from that war and the battle against our greatest enemy, Osama bin Laden and the terrorists. Invading Iraq has created a crisis of historic proportions and, if we do not change course, [...]
No Sense of Decency

This is all too often true: But I won’t. The question is no longer worth raising, even rhetorically. Because we know the answer. They have no decency. Not a sliver, not a shred. Look at how Max Cleland has been treated, look at how George Soros has been smeared as some sort of Jewish intriguer [...]
Bush: The Lost Years
Posted in Politics on September 20, 2004 | 2 Comments »
The Times has an interesting look as Bush as a complete and total tool as a young man: Still, a wider examination of his life in 1972, based on dozens of interviews and other documents released by the White House over the years, yields a portrait of a young man like many other young men [...]
