Oh, I can't say he could've prevented the invasion, either. But his story, as told in 2004 just days before the publication of his book, has the whiff of tainted goods. The same story told in 2002 would have, I believe, proven compelling enough to have nudged the likes of John Kerry [and how many ot...

On the other hand, Clarke was still an official in the Bush Administration until sometime in 2003 . . . He resigned in 2003. Given the importance of what he had to say-- especially as it would have had an impact on America's decision to invade Iraq, he could've resigned sooner and come forward with...

Sure, this is terribly damning testimony. But as it comes more than two years after 9/11 and only days before his book is to be published, his comments may be swatted away as nothing more than the self-serving rantings of an ex-high-level government employee. I wish I could say I admire Clark for co...

As if on cue. [Disclaimer: Ryan and I are not working as a team, recent posts not withstanding.]

Two stories on the front page this morning: "Bush Administration: Spain Mishandled Early Info on Madrid Bombing" and "U.S. Raises Pakistan's Standing To 'Major' Ally." Whaah? The Bush Administration's got the balls to point a finger elsewhere--especially regarding [gulp] the mishandling of informati...

True, I *am* a fan of cheap entertainment. So what the heck. I'll check it out.

One difference between Democrats and Republicans is that Republicans never learned to suppress the child within that wants what it wants and wants it now. Never satisfied, enough is never enough. And it must get its way all the time. And if you call them on it, e.g., "crooks" and "liars" they scream...

If all they want to talk about is poop and farting, then perhaps I'll have to start spending more time over here. That would be nice. You've been missed. A lot. Also, keep reading over at DC. I may have to get nasty and it's surely gonna be entertaining. I'm going to bookmark that site right now. T...

Why is the self-proclaimed party of optimism running attack ads on Kerry instead of trumping their own record? As a strategy, running on feel-good optimism may serve the Republicans well as by its vague nature it avoids addressing the specifics of Bush's policies. They tried trumpeting the specific...

Playing the optimism card is one of the few strategies open to Bush as actually defending his policies has met with increased skepticism. Obviously, whether it'll work or not will depend in large part how convincing he is. [And how badly the public wants to believe it.] His father was terrible at it...

Don't pop open those bottles of bubbly just yet, Luke. But at 99 members now, there's sure to be another fella [or gal] to sign up sometime soon . . . well, if not soon, then certainly before the upcoming November elections. But as time's-a-tickin' you might think of upgrading the board's software t...

Christ. How many politicians elected to national office can claim [with a straight face] to be an "ordinary/common" American? As regards democracy in the United States, only the rich need apply. But that's never been a secret, has it?

It's the 2-CD set [with slip cover] from 1995 or so with [I believe] the original mono single mixes.

I think that most [still] agree that the Bill Inglot 2-CD set is the best available.

No, no, no. Two other, even more well-known groups than those. Sheesh. If I'd known it was going to be so tough to get the correct answer I would have posted this elsewhere where the membership is quite a bit larger and a good deal more knowledgeable. But all laughter aside, this Razor & Tie reissue...
