Updated: Does Anybody Know Anything About This Obama Rally Button?
A collector of Delaware political memorabilia is looking for any infomation anybody might have about the button. Who made it? When? How many? Whatever. As an artifact, I have to say, it is pretty interesting. No doubt he asked me if i knew anything about it because KHN’s name is not spelled correctly.
Chuck Hagel Taking Names
Wow! On comedian Rush Limbaugh: “We are educated by the great entertainers like Rush Limbaugh,” said Hagel, sarcastically referencing the talk radio host who once called him “Senator Betrayus.” “You know, I wish Rush Limbaugh and others like that would run for office. They have so much to contribute and so much leadership and they […]
I’ll Give You Something To Cry About
Just take a look at the two-headed hydra that is called the Obama Intelligence Transition Team or the Intelligence Community Review Team Leads: John Brennan and Jami Miscik. Melvin Goodman writes in The Baltimore Sun: Instead of placing the transition process under a seasoned professional such as Mr. Scowcroft, the Obama team has turned to […]
Today’s Better News
More “leaking” re: Obama’s possible cabinet picks (with the usual caveats re: grains of salt): Eric Holder for Attorney General — Holder was co-chair of the Obama VP Search Team and and a Deputy AG in the Clinton Justice Department. I like this choice, largely because he knows how the building should function and could […]
Weak
I kove how Joe can just stand there and lie so brazenly about such recent events that have been so well documented. It is a real skill. BTW…who is that fucking dope in the background who keeps sticking his head into the shot?…. …oh….nevermind.
Whatever…

Governor-elect Jack Markell Selects Administration’s Chief of Staff WILMINGTON – Governor-elect Jack Markell announced Tuesday that Dennis Rochford will leave a successful career in the private sector to be his administration’s chief of staff. “Dennis has the […]
Beau Says No
No Beaux I think many believed that it was obvious that Beau Biden would be appointed to replace his Dad, but apparently he’s saying no.
There Will Not Be A Cultural Revolution
To My Fellow Democrats: Have you not been paying attention? Obama has said he is going to work in a bipartenship style and he has envoked Lincoln countless times regarding his style of governship. Keeping one’s friends close and one’s enemies even closer does seem to be Obama’s mantra. Whether Lieberman stays or Clinton joins […]
Lieberman Survives
So reports Kagro X over at dKos. Post what you read or hear in comments. EDIT: The Hill reports the vote was 42-13. UPDATE 2:From Steve Benen: Second, let’s pause to appreciate just how smart Lieberman is. In this case, I don’t mean that as a compliment. It was inconceivable that if Obama won in […]
Pulling Back the Curtain
Going with our recent media criticism theme, this is really intriguing: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHKzS5Zl6mY[/youtube] So Shep Smith calls out Ralph Nader, goes on Billo and refuses to participate in the echo chamber, and here slaps back the “media bias” whine. What’s going on here? In Obama’s press conference a week or so back he did not call […]
