    POPS
    Iraq hawks are just as wrong on Afghanistan
    masbury
    by masbury  10-11-2009    1
     Why do we listen to the same arguments that initiated the Iraq invasion, from the same people who made them then?

    Fmr. Bush aide: Beat Joe Wilson at the polls
    masbury
    by masbury  9-13-2009   
     Mark McKinnon says: "as long as louts ... can spout off ... and get rewarded with re-election, then louts will continue to spout off. And we will continue to claw our way to the very bottom of the political swamp." Gives $1,000 to Wilson's opponent.

    POPS
    Which states have the most Medicaid-funded births?
    masbury
    by masbury  8-27-2009    4
     I wonder why it is that the states that most decry government spending are the ones that take the most federal money per capita to deliver their babies? Note Huckabee's Arkansas and Palin's Alaska and McCain's Arizona and Barbour's Mississippi and Jindal's Louisiana and Demint's S. Carolina.

    POPS
    Obamas take family vacation at their own expense
    masbury
    by masbury  8-13-2009    1

    Right-wing terror tactics: here we go again!
    masbury
    by masbury  8-10-2009    3
     Remember Bush scaring us to war over weapons of mass destruction? Remember McCain's Convention images of the Twin Towers collapsing? Remember Palin's refrain that Obama was "palling around with terrorists?" How many times will Americans listen when right-wingers cry "Wolf?"

    POPS
    That horrible media double-standard toward Palin
    masbury
    by masbury  7-12-2009    2
     the same conservative commentariat that vilified both Clintons 24/7 now whines that Palin is receiving “the kind of mauling” that the media “always reserve for conservative Republicans.” So said The Wall Street Journal editorial page last week. You’d never guess that The Journal had published six innuendo-laden books on real and imagined Clinton scandals, or that the Clintons had been a leading target of both Letterman and Leno monologues, not to mention many liberal editorial pages (including that of The Times), for much of a decade

    Backing Iranian demonstrators could prompt crackdown
    masbury
    by masbury  6-20-2009    5
     Republicans turn up the heat on Obama to come down hard on Iran; Administration knows that American support could be just the excuse Iran's govt needs to touch off a crackdown and kill the reform movement. Wake up, GOP, how many times will you undermine reform in Iran?

    POPS
    McCain: "I hope that we will act" against Iran
    masbury
    by masbury  6-15-2009    3
     Yet another reason to be glad McCain's not president. If the US appeared to back the Iranian reform movement, it would be dead in an instant. McCain still doesn't understand the basics.

    masbury
    by masbury  6-14-2009    1
     Invites editor of racist website to speak at his upcoming conference, who has published such statements as "Better teachers means whiter teachers," and "the white a.k.a. American vote." MSNBC should drop Buchanan.

    Amount Obama received from AIG: Zero!
    masbury
    by masbury  3-30-2009   
     Employees of AIG - a different matter - gave quite a bit, but not as much as they gave Bush in 04. And the #3 winner from AIG employees in 08? John McCain. If you contributed to the campaign of a public official at your work, would it be accurate to say that the company you work for made the contribution?

    POPS
    FoxNews shows Biden quoting McCain, claims Biden said it
    masbury
    by masbury  3-17-2009   
     Now says it was an "inadvertent" error. Quote was six months old; Biden was quoting (and disagreeing with) McCain; FoxNews pitched it as Biden's own current opinion. Wow.

    How did rich and poor voters vote in '08?
    masbury
    by masbury  3-5-2009    12
     Amazing! Who would've won if only rich people voted? Or only poor? Or only middle-income? Among poor voters only 2 states (Idaho and Wyoming) remain red. Hello Christians - whose side were you on?

    Obama seeks McCain's input
    masbury
    by masbury  1-19-2009    4
     Plans collaboration on some of McCain's favorite causes, like cutting corporate welfare. Unprecedented and so smart; many issues don't divide along ideological lines, and joint effort could be a big blow to gridlock.

    masbury
    by masbury  12-11-2008    2
     Levin and McCain issue report jointly; abuse at low levels was a direct result of Rumsfeld policy, not a few bad apples.

    Possible McCain win scenarios
    masbury
    by masbury  11-3-2008    3
     Which states to watch: Out of 10,000 simulations, McCain wins 624. "there are some states that truly do appear to be "must-wins" for McCain. In each and every one of the 624 victory scenarios that the simulation found for him this afternoon, McCain won Florida, Georgia, Missouri, Indiana and Montana. He also picked up Ohio in 621 out of the 624 simulations, and North Carolina in 622 out of 624. If McCain drops any of those states, it's pretty much over.
