I’d like to think that this is some crazy counter-counter espionage psy-ops false-leak wonderment because if our military is that careless — or the Russian ambassador that stupid — then we’ve got something to worry about: Two Iraqi documents from March 2003 — on the eve of the U.S.-led invasion — and addressed to the [...]

I just had a funny thought after finishing mixing tonight’s episode on Russ Feingold: What if Feingold ended up facing John McCain in the 2008 Presidential election. McCain vs. Feingold. How would they finance their campaigns? Seriously: you’ve got the two co-authors of the most seminal piece of campaign finance reform legislation squaring off. Each [...]

The news that Iran and the US are going to meet to discuss Iraq of all things seems strange on its face but lends credence to the idea that there was a geopolitcal strategy behind invading Iraq, right? About that post title . . .

I’m gonna pull a Contrarian and say that this note from Sam Alito to James Dobson was intentionally leaked: “Dear Dr. Dobson:This is just a short note to express my heartfelt thanks to you and the entire staff of Focus on the Family for your help and support during the past few challenging months.

The big question over the weekend was what will happen in Israel/Palestine now that Hamas is in charge. Thursday, we wondered whether it wasn’t actually an OK thing.

What’s also interesting is that the top 6 companies are internet retailers (Amazon.com), big-box stores (Wal-Mart, Target), and electronics stores (F.Y.E., Circut City, [...]

While it’s true that yesterday’s election results are no the watershed moment for Democrats that Howard Dean would have you believe they are, there’s no denying that the re-election of Democratic governors in NJ and VA, plus the defeat of GOP initiatives in CA and ME is better for Democrats and worse for Republicans than [...]

I’m this close to succumbing to Scooter Fatigue, but before that happens, I’d like to point to this article in New York Magazine. I do this for two reasons — one, because New York Magazine is not half bad these days and two, because writer John Heilemann gets at the broad brushstrokes that make this [...]

If the White Sox hadn’t won last night, if the heads of Satans Incarnate weren’t on the chopping block, if the hurricane season of the century wasn’t underway and if deaths in Iraq hadn’t reached a somber, media-friendly round number, would we have paid more attention to the fact that a major sports figure has [...]
