  • Press criticizes obsession with "narrative" in politics, fails to acknowledge press role in creation of obsession with narrative.
  • John McCain met his "old friend," war criminal Henry Kissinger, in New York today. He "tweeted" about it. He said nothing about taxing Kissinger's tanning bed.
  • You should be concerned about that Comcast/NBC merger.
  • "Bible ignored, grandfather mauled by grizzly."
  • Blackwater got a contract in Afghanistan.
  • God, why won't nerdlinger John Kerry leave his colleagues alone and stop bugging them about saving the planet?
  • Rand Paul said something mean and stupid.
  • I love Rep. Steve Cohen, and I love this embarrassing video.
  • Are liberals abandoning Barack Obama? Yes and no. Mostly no.
  • Arabs! Marty Peretz does not like them.
  • Tom Harkin talked about filibuster reform last week. It was pretty good.
