ive only seen three of the new senators on the news and thus far ive been most impressed by webb. tweety loved johnny unitas john tester (he couldnt stop humping testers leg. that crewcut really turns him on.) but i was disappointed that he couldnt come up with a decent response to that outdated chestnut that democrats were not good at balancing the books. first i would have countered that i dont see much fiscal responsibility from the republicans, and, second, i remember some guy named clinton was pretty fair at that. apparently that anti-clinton shock collar the republicans gave matthews for xmas in 1994 still works because his mind gets cloudy whenever that name gets mentioned. he couldnt even remember al gores name the other day. he referred to him as that guy who was vice president before cheney. i kid you not. and then there was claire mccaskill who with a befuddled look on her face said she would support a bolton nomination for the un. um, claire, that is not a question you want to answer off the cuff on no sleep, to say nothing it being exceptionally stupid.

so webb came across the best. with a son in harms way in iraq and a distinguished military career, he is virtually patton standing next to the chicken hawk brigade. id like to see him accused of cutting and running by shrub. also he articulated that his reasons for becoming a democrat moved beyond iraq to issues of social justice. so while he may be conservative, he is no conservative, and that is a good thing.

still waiting to hear from the new senators from rhode island, ohio and pennsylvania. and when does bernie saunders get some face time?

everybody's saying "thumpin'" now. it's like half the Salon headlines, about Bush or not.
that folksy word that was so carefully chosen for damage control becomes a press mantra--just like "16 words"

At the bottom of this requiem for Santorum, Dan Savage links to a video in which Santorum unequivocally comes out against the "pursuit of happiness". The actual phrase is used by Santorum at the very end of this frothy clip, but the intent is mixed throughout.

We can only hope Mr. Santorum gets the full measure of his much deserved unhappiness.

how come admitting to a pattern of lying comes so easily now? how do you face your people with those admissions?
