Strength Not Weakness
by Lee Stranahan I think it's a mistake to see the Lieberman reconciliation as another example of Democratic Party weakness. What we're seeing here is actually pretty profound -- the proper...
Exactly!
Digby: [Senator Clinton] can absorb all the looney criticism from the right and the Village and he can go about his business above the fray. It's actually smart to give them someone else to hate. And...
Trying to See The Cup Half Full
[I wrote a draft of the following in the comments section for this previous Lieberman post, but I thought I'd graduate it up to its own thing.] Irrespective of Lieberman's awfulness, he still votes...
In Which I Expose My Inner Geekitude…

Don't Sweat Lieberman
We'll run him out of the Senate in 2012. What's that they say about a dish best served cold? UPDATE: Now this is what I'm talking about. Let's go! UPDATE THE SECOND: BooMan finds the stupid: In other...
Our New President Believes In Science!
Finally! While I'm still underwhelmed by the 2020 and 2050 goals, at long last we're on the right track with the climate crisis. h/t Paddy (On a purely stupid observational note... Can't they find an...

How To Tell People They Sound Racist
by Lee Stranahan This was released a few months ago but I just found it last night and it seems appropriate given the upswing in crazy.
Post-Racial Doesn't Mean Post-Racism
A summary of several racist events since election day: • In Standish, Maine, a sign in the Oak Hill General Store said, “Osama Obama Shotgun Pool.” Customers could sign up to bet $1 on a date when...
Oh boy, oh boy!
Drama! Team Obama, after all but offering SecState to Senator Clinton, is expressing EXASPERATION with the Clinton camp for the difficulty in getting a clean vet on President Bill Clinton’s many...
