Cynicism Is The New Real
3/13/10 •
Check out the lead paragraph from an article on the front page of this past Wednesday’s NYTimes:

Commenting on Cynicism
3/13/10 •
LK here. The following comment, received shortly after I posted my “Cynicism” piece earlier today, warrants better placement than hidden beneath my own post. It fleshes out the Corker situation and goes on to provide legislative suggestions to plug a leak in the anti-corruption dam.

This is wonderful news. A small but [...]

Funny or Die’s Presidential Reunion from Will Ferrell
Funny Or Die has a great video up today that “brings together the Saturday Night Live actors who have played every American president since Gerald Ford” (plus a not-to-miss guest spot by Jim Carrey playing “The Gipper”). In the video, Barack Obama gets a visit from the ex-Presidents [...]
Wreckonciliation and Wrangle

The above was simply too good to pass up.
Obama and crew ran the campaign as well as they’ve run the government poorly. Even Dems don’t understand the current substance or long range implications of the health care bill that Pelosi and Reid, using string, glue and Parliamentary backdoor maneuvers, are attempting to cobble together.
