Back in 2003, Andrew Natsios was the Administrator of the U.S. Agency for International Development. Like many other Bush Administration appointees, Natsios is a complete dumbass.
Neo-Con Cheerleader Natsios went on Nightline soon after the beginning of the invasion of Iraq and stated that the U.S. contribution to the rebuilding of Iraq would be just $1.7 [...]

This one is more for me than for you. My son has a cover of the song in the first video from some goof ball band (Gary Jules) he listens to, and I told him that it was a pretty good cover. Cover? he asked. Yeah, it’s a cover. Tears for Fears did it in, [...]

Does anyone have a dollar amount on how much of our debt China owns?* I heard a report last year on NPR where an economist was wetting himself at the thought of China dumping the dollar for the euro. He sounded scared. It, in turn, freaked me out a little bit.
Misty, over at Saintless, sent [...]

Bryan Schott – over at KCPW, decided to give me grief because a bunch of programmers made a game of his beloved Iron Man (it looks like there will be some ballet involved). I have a little news for Bryan …

“You have acted in direct contravention of values that we, as Americans who love our country, hold dear. You have deceived us in the most cynical, outrageous ways. You have undermined, or allowed the undermining of, our constitutional system of checks and balances among the three presumed co-equal branches of government. You have helped lead our nation to the brink of fascism, of a dictatorship contemptuous of our nation’s treaty obligations, federal statutory law, our Constitution, and the rule of law.”

I love Crooks and Liars. They always get the good stuff. This video, and other moments like it, are one of the reasons I keep swinging back to Biden. I don’t know where my delegate vote if going yet, but, man, somedays, Biden looks like exactly what I want in a POTUS.

From TPM and the Huffington Post:
Huffington first, because she’s a silver fox:
In recent weeks, Republican presidential candidates have found time in their busy schedules to speak or debate before the Republican Jewish Coalition, “Value Voters,” conservative Floridians, even Wyoming Republicans, who hold virtually no sway in the primary race. They’ve also agreed to appear at [...]

I have no idea why I still like Dead Can Dance. They seem to embody, on the surface, all the appeal of the Goth underground that I used to call the death bunnies, and most folks call Emo now. Granted, I’m looking right at their major fan base, I suppose, but, it still carries the [...]

It’s not always the act of sin that causes all the problems. Sometimes it’s the appearance of sin, or, rather, the condoning of sin that bites you in the ass.
Never mind that, somewhere in upstate New York, a bunch of dumb racist WASPs have started their own hunt club. That happens all over. But, what [...]

I really appreciate my job this afternoon. Again today from ABC News, loyalty oaths only cause trouble:
 US to Order Diplomats to Serve in Iraq
Facing a Lack of Volunteers, State Department Prepares to Order Diplomats to Iraq
In the largest call-up of U.S. diplomats since the Vietnam War, the State Department is planning to order some [...]

You’ll see Coldplay here again, so, don’t get on me about the short intro and my only posting a couple of songs. I’m in a terrible hurry. Anyway. I like Coldplay. You should too.

From ABC News:
FEMA Apologizes After Sham News Conference
White House, Homeland Security Department Angered by FEMA ‘Stunt’
It looked like any other Washington press briefing, with a public affairs official walking up to a podium, introducing a government official and kicking off a press conference.
But what happened next raised the ire of the news media and ticked [...]

Utah State Democratic Vice-Chair Rob “Utah Amicus” Miller did a grand thing. A wonderous thing. A spiffy thing.
Rob is a blogger, in addition to everything else he does, and as such, he very well aware that 1) bloggers don’t go to very many “pay” political events and 2) bloggers can’t often afford to. That’s why [...]
