Discuss, whilst I edit tomorrow's news tonight.

Also, at least nobody died when Bobby Jindal lied.

Say Will, that's a bit harsh. I mean maybe Jindall just simply was mistaken that he wasn't someplace that he said he was, at a time that he said he was there, and that no one said to him the things he said they said to him. But that doesn't mean he was lying when he told that story to a national audience for the purpose of establishing his credibility. He could just have been telling things that were completely untrue. But you can't actually prove that he knew they weren't true, can you? It could simply be that he is completely delusional. Which, actually, would establish him at the Attytood Republican troll's favored presidential candidate, of course.

That's a great poll, meanwhile the Dow is down another 120 points today... down 1200 points since he took office, down 6000 points since he sealed up the Dem nomination. So, while stupid polls are real nice, the real poll is in investor confidence, of which there is none...

Will, by the way, the only thing I can say you've ever been right about was your decision to go on the Michael Medved show. Even though you got destroyed in the debate, at least you went on the show. Perhaps some of Medved's sense and intelligence will rub off on you...

Obama gave a disgraceful speech today in front of the troops announcing the withdrawl of combat troops from Iraq. No mention of victory, no mention of democracy in Iraq, and not suprisingly, no credit to George Bush. The only reason Obama could make this speech today is because of GWB. The heavy lifting has already been done. Obama was wrong as wrong can be on Iraq and now he's just riding coat tails, and he knows it.

Excellent Comrade Bunch! Now that we control the media in America with our fellow leftists, all we will do is smear people who believe in meritocracy, individuality, wealth, and creativity. Ha Ha Ha Ha!

JMC - there's no doubt that Obama's speech today at Camp Lejeune would not have been possible without GWB; invading the wrong country under false pretenses, mangling the war effort, and the sacrifice of 4,500 + American lifes. Is that the type of credit that Obama should have alluded to today? Yeah, Obama is just another ungrateful liberal for not giving Bush his due.

It reminds me of the last President's high approval rating how did that work out???

Kochs, coke and an American dystopia in Detroit
And then they came for Fox News
Before Obama probed the AP, the right wing tried to destroy it
God's messenger comes down to remind us of the true meaning of scandal
