It's not enough that I have to watch the GOP piss on most of the U.S. Constitution. I now have to read about the 17 point lead of our bitch ass Governator, a man with the political convictions of a Bangkok hooker.

It's do or die time for California Democratic Gubernatorial candidate Phil Angelides -- but he's mostly dying. With just a handful of weeks to go in the re-election race of Governor Schwarzenegger, new polls show Angelides trailing by as much as 17%...
[N]othing seems to be slowing Arnold's momentum. He has made recent deals with the Democratic legislature on raising the minimum wage, lowering prescription drug prices and has just signed the most advanced anti-Global Warming legislation in the country.

Dr. Charlie "Strangleove" Krauthammer attempts to unfurl the neocon fall election gambit. But he fails so badly that you almost want to look away as he rolls headfirst off the ramp wheelchair and all.

No, it's not a joke. The man literally blames John Kerry for the disaster in Iraq.

If the United States leaves, the central government in Iraq will collapse, and the beneficiaries will be Iran, Syria and al-Qaeda, the three major terrorist actors in the world today...
One can argue that we should therefore have left Saddam Hussein in place...
But assume for a moment that the critics are right. That's the argument that should have been made -- that Kerry should have made -- four years ago, before he voted yes, before he voted no, before he voted yes on the war.

Here is an article describing past events, with some names changed slightly to predict the future:

...President George W. Bush announced to a national television audience that US troops were invading Iran, the country east of Iraq through which the Shiite military was supplying their troops. In fact, the US had been conducting bombing raids in Iran for over a year.
Millions also saw it on live television as Bush disclosed the invasion. Several journalistic accounts commented on the sense of disbelief and helplessness felt by many viewers. Time's cover story began,
For the past year the Bush had been promoting the "Iraqization" of the war, promising to replace US troops with newly-trained Iraqi soldiers. Citizens had expressed relief at the thought of American fighters coming home.
On the heels of Presidential promises of de-escalation, the announcement caused many in the United States to respond with shock and anger. Protests erupted across the country...

What's wrong with the Democratic Party?

You can start with this guy. Marshall Whitman. AKA "Bull Moose," AKA member of the DLC (the DINO Lackluster Conference), AKA Joe Lieberman's Only Fan. The man is a born loser, and he wants to take the rest of us down with him.

Here's his bit of wisdom for today:

A confrontation with Saddam was inevitable in the aftermath of 9/11.

Opposing Scalito on the merits is all well and good, and should be pursued full time by every elected Dem on the planet.

Yet we liberals always lose track of the politics of personal destruction as an offensive tool. It works very well, especially with puritanical-streak Republican figures. And you don't (just) bring a knife to a gunfight. Read More

A lot of you might have heard about the charming new College Republican National Chairman, Paul Ghourly. Max Blumenthal tells us about him in the Nation:

http://www.thenation.com/doc.mhtml?i=20050711&s=blumenthal

Not to be outdone by his opponent's petty pranks, CRNC front-runner and University of South Dakota senior Paul Gourley was at the center of a controversial fundraising scheme. During the height of last year's campaign, a firm hired by the CRNC sent repeated solicitation letters printed on "Republican Headquarters 2004" letterhead to elderly Republicans, some of whom suffered from dementia. The letter urged recipients to pray over an American flag lapel pin, then send it back--along with $1,000--so George W. Bush could wear it during his acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention. The solicitation was signed by "Paul Gourley, National Director." Though Gourley denied knowledge of the letter's content until it was published, it cast a cloud over his candidacy.

There's a post up right now at Washington Monthly that typifies everthing that is wrong with the mainstream media today. It is such classic Beltway Kool Kids Krap that it should be emblazoned in gold at the National Press Club.

I'm still not sure that it's not brilliant satire:
