Follow along kids:

Bob Schieffer: I have to say, Barack Obama has not had any of those experiences either, nor has he ridden in a fighter plane and gotten shot down. I mean-

GENERAL WESLEY CLARK: Well, I don't think riding in a fighter plane and getting shot down is a qualification to be President.

"Nor has he ridden in a fighter plane and gotten shot down." Schieffer brought it up. Spoken as if that was a qualification for being President that Obama didn't have. It's not.

Bob Schieffer: Really?!

Yeah, really.

Let's not forget to thank good ol' Chuck Schumer for working his butt off to get his good buddy Mukasey in as AG. It's so refreshing to have an AG who only covers Bush's ass about 95% as much as Gonzales did.

I think it's pretty easy to predict how Mukasey's going to rule on asserting executive privilege for any given document request by Congress. Mukasey's rule of thumb is that, if there's any chance at all that documents might produce incontrovertible evidence of a crime by the president or someone near him, then the president has the privilege of withholding that evidence. In other words, Mukasey's primary function is the obstruction of justice.

Mukasey's got seven months to save up for his legal representation. And when the time comes, he might be wise to cop a plea. He knows what he's doing and he's not going to get away with it.

I can't help but wonder if anyone who is seeing malicious sexism in the media coverage of HRC might also feel a bit uncomfortable by the comments of her male supporters with regard to "testicular fortitude" or the alleged number of balls she has. They're supposedly complimenting her by attributing male physical characteristics to her, which we're fairly certain she doesn't actually have. Do feminists see this as praise? If a woman is seen as strong, must she then have male physical attributes?

He also thinks you are a trollop and worse.

Perhaps even a c*nt. That's his pet name for Cindi.

Has anyone bothered to inform Lieberman that he's a joke?

Not a very funny one, either.

Sorry, I just had to look it up:

WHOIS information for: justsaynodeal.com:

Are Diane and Diana the same person?

"We are not entertaining McCain for vengeance but we are feeling completely left out," said Diane Mantouvalos, a Clinton supporter from Florida.

Mantouvalos is now talking about organising a Million Women March at the Democratic convention in Denver to protest at what she sees as unfair treatment of her candidate. "I think Clinton feels she is in a strong enough position to go the convention," Mantouvalos said.

I think they're the same person. Note the style similarity between "justsaynodeal.com" and her own page at "http://andoniapr.com/about.html"

I wonder how her clients will feel about her trying to sabotage the election.

The only thing left to figure out about Michelle Made-Up-Name is whether it's a salaried troll or a free lancer.

This appears to be a full-time gig. I'm betting on salaried.

bluebell: "Al has also failed to go on the offensive and hit the Republican Party on every failure from war to imploding infrastructure."

Okay, enough with the BS. If you really don't know anything about Al Franken, just admit it. Or better yet, just don't make ignorant comments.

What do you think he's been doing consistently since he first wrote "Rush Limbaugh Is A Big Fat Idiot" over 12 years ago? Have you read any of his books? Have you listened to his radio show? Have you seen him on Letterman or when he did political commentary and satire on Comedy Central? Have you heard any of his radio or TV interviews since he started running for the Senate?

Not only has he been vocal, but he blazed a trail for other writers and talk show hosts, because very few people were speaking out and doing it so effectively when he started doing political satire and tearing into all the Limbaughs, O'Reillys, Hannitys, and Coulters.

Earlier you said that the Air America station in Minneapolis/St. Paul only has 10 listeners. Ed Schultz airs on that station and he'd beg to differ with you on that. I see about 10 AM950 bumper stickers on my way to work before I've even gotten out of my neighborhood. They have a huge listening audience.

I don't know what your angle is, but you're slinging an awful lot of crap.
