What do the Democrats do?

The 2008 presidential election looked like the best of all possible worlds for the Democrats. Bush is hugely unpopular. The economy appears on a downward slide. U.S. troops are still in Iraq. The only additional thing they could've asked for was for the GOP to nominate Dick Cheney. And then Barack Obama happened. Obama was […]

Obama's press conference

I must confess that I was only marginally awake when Sen. Barack Obama held his press conference Monday afternoon (EDT) to announce that he had finally seen the light and discovered that his pastor was kinda wacky. Obama said he was "shocked'' by [the Rev. Jeremiah] Wright's statements during a speech at the National Press […]

Obama's Rev. Wright problem explodes

The media assault started Friday with a softball appearance on PBS' "Bill Moyers Journal." How softball? BILL MOYERS: When I hear the word "black liberation theology" being the interpretation of scripture from the oppressed, I think well, that's the Jewish story-- REVEREND WRIGHT: Exactly, exactly. From Genesis to Revelation. These are people who wrote the […]

The integrity of the ballot box

The Supreme Court today ruled 6-3 that an Indiana law requiring voters to present a photo identification -- available free of charge -- is constitutional. The opinion was written by John Paul Stevens. I too am shocked. Indiana has a "valid interest in protecting 'the integrity and reliability of the electoral process,'" said Justice John […]

It's not going to win a Grammy

McCain's media buddies

Everyone's heard the talk likening the media coverage Sen. John McCain gets on his "Straight Talk Express" to the hagiographic coverage Sen. Barack Obama gets. Don't be fooled. Come the general election, the media will still be good for at least 5 percent in the polls for the Democrats. Evidence: The properties box in the […]

McCain's shifting standards

John McCain is mad about this ad. The ad is pretty tame, and it's targeted at two North Carolina gubernatorial hopefuls, but the use of Barack Obama and his pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, is too much for McCain. "They're not listening to me because they're out of touch with reality and the Republican Party. […]

Nancy Pelosi's Bible quote

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is catching some flak for a "Bible" quote that some people say never actually appears in the Bible. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is fond of quoting a particular passage of Scripture. The quote, however, does not appear in the Bible and is "fictional," according to biblical scholars. In her April […]

Kristof on free trade

The New York Times' Nicholas Kristof has a pretty good article on the Democrats and their less-than-wise opposition to the Colombia free trade pact. I encourage you to read it. However, it was this little slam at the end that got my blood pressure up a bit. One of President Bush’s most costly actions was […]
