Horrible

But for some reason, I love it! In some way, maybe there is hope for us after all.

Embarassment

This clip should be put in a time capsule and saved for all time. Thanks to TPM for the compilation:

McCain's record of (not)supporting veterans

From VetVoice, a great summary of McCain's veteran/troop legislative record:

On Friday, September September 26, 2008, John McCain said the following:

"I know the veterans, I know them well, and I know that they know that I'll take care of them, and I have been proud of their support and their recognition of my service to the veterans, and I love them, and I'll take care of them, and they know that I'll take care of them."

This statement--made near the end of Friday's debate--immediately infuriated veterans across America and overseas. In fact, Senator John McCain has a very clear, long, and illustrious history of not supporting troops and veterans one bit.

Check out the list and use it often.

Everything you need to know about the subprime crisis

I love these guys:

OK, I've calmed down now.

I think digby nails it pretty well:

As my readers know, I believe that the Democrats should make an aggressive argument for progressive policies and liberal principles. I don't mind someone saying they can work with others, but I do object to saying Republicans have good ideas when they don't. The radical policies that have led us to this moment have failed but somebody needs to tell the American people exactly why and offer them a clear alternative. This crisis is an opportunity to spell that out so clearly that there will be no question for a generation that these ideas are as toxic as an adjustable rate mortgage.

Read the whole thing.

I still don't understand why Obama is pushing this bill so hard.
