  • Oh no! Gwen Ifill invited one Democrat and Republican Rick Lazio on to PBS to politely debate "The Ground Zero Mosque" and a cable news argument broke out! How could she have possibly predicted such a thing would happen?
  • Speaking of Rick Lazio, he is a scumbag.
  • The Senate GOP is obstructing a package of business tax credits.
  • Great moments in newspaper editor's notes, Barney Frank is gross edition.
  • Israel has two hours left to strategically strike Goldman Sachs.
  • Did you read that Times story on how The Kids Today are slackers who refuse to grow up? Yes, well, some important context was missing.
  • Rod Blagojevich's storage facility auctioned off some of his Elvis memorabilia.
