Obama Clinton Debate Now

Obama Clinton Debate Now

I’m watching the Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton debate. That’s it. I’m switching my allegiance. I’m now for Barack Obama. Hillary is trying to claim that Barack isn’t including everyone’s viewpoints, isn’t being inclusive enough (referencing the “bitter” comments) while – at the same time – insinuating guilt by association for everyone he knows. Little comments, little accusations. What did it for me is this. Barack was generous with her. He reframed the comments about her Bosnia trip in a…

W Made an Impression on Reagan

W Made an Impression on Reagan

Uh-huh. Exactly. “A moment I’ve been dreading. George brought his n’er-do-well son around this morning and asked me to find the kid a job.

The Museum will include: The Hurricane Katrina Room, which is still under construction. The Alberto Gonzales Room, where you can’t remember anything. The Texas Air National Guard…

The Vicki Strategy?

The Vicki Strategy?

I don’t know – and I truly don’t care – whether or not John McCain had a “romantic involvement” with lobbyist Vicki Iseman. Honestly, I keep expecting him to start referring to her as “that woman.” Give me a break. Can’t we break this obsession with our politicians’ sex lives? John and Cindy McCain been married for a long time and been through a lot together, but I can’t help thinking an unkind thing. Cindy McCain reminds me of Cruella…
