• Just Say Yes to Just Say No
  A video that's gotta be seen (and heard) to be believed: it's New Mexico Congressional candidate Darren White, presently a county sheriff, in an early '90s anti-drug rocker entitled "Just Say No." Wonderfully cheesy local production values are in full swing. Enjoy...

• The horror is getting to Matt Taibbi
  Exclusive Q&A with writer Taibbi. Snippet - "If and when I ever get to be Interior Minister, one of my first acts is going to be the putting to death of anyone who thinks God interferes in the outcome of things like sporting events and elections. I'd want to have a giant shark tank built expressly for this purpose. Just throw them in there and then dump a couple of barrels of cow blood in the water..."

• Could the U.S. Attorneys firing scandal be bigger than Americans know?
  For months, the Bush administration has declined to directly answer a key question posed by Congress: were more top federal prosecutors targeted for dismissal beyond the nine that have been publicly identified? In a new letter to senators who have been pushing for the answer...

• FISA failure demonstrates why we need real progressives in Congress
  I'm still mulling over the massive Democratic capitulation that enabled Bush to pass into law the most sweeping violation of Americans' privacy yet--legalizing an illegal program, and making it stronger to boot. Why did this happen? Why did Democrats in both chambers of Congress roll over and give Mr. 28% carte blanche to spy on Americans without any recourse? Why throw away all the political capital that could have been gained from opposing him? As I said in my previous post about the FISA collapse, it wasn't just Democrats who helped push this ugly bill into law--many of the supporters were newly-elected netroots Democrats, who came to Congress on a platform of change and opposing Bush on his draconian usurpation of the rule of law.

• Guess who's a Ron Paul fan
  It's the Prince of Darkness himself, Bob Novak. How could that be, when Novak has been pimping Fred Thompson for weeks? Well, acquaint yourself with Novak's weird sense of humor. Loathe as I am to link to the Washington Times, it's in their "Fishwrap" (snicker) blog that he is quoted as follows...

• Pelosi 'totally opposed' to impeachment
  House Speaker Nancy Pelosi held a blogger call this afternoon to discuss the reconciled House/Senate Iraq spending bill. Perhaps the most interesting moment of the conference came when Pelosi was asked directly whether she supported articles of impeachment against the President...
