QOTE
Today, Politico wrote a long article detailing how President Obama (and even to some extent the Dem-controlled Congress) has been able to pretty much ignore the usual effort by the GOP to make everything a Dem says or does into the betrayal of the century. In fact, it seems from here that although the usual […]

McClatchy Papers: Bush Pushed Torture to Find Iraq-Al Qaida Link

El Somnambulo’s Top 10 Republican Targets for 2010-#4
State Auditor-Tom Wagner No, no, defeating Alleged State Auditor Tom Wagner does not require a ‘suspendering of disbelief’. All that’s needed in these fiscally-troubled times is a credible candidate dedicated to restoring this office’s purported mission of weeding out waste, fraud and abuse.
