We’re hosting a special live chat tonight at 8:00 p.m. ET, the precise time that TOTUS and POTUS are reading, er speaking.
Tonight’s special event is sponsored by the National Pork Producers Council because you can’t get enough pork and, besides, it’s good for you. (TOTUS claims that Joe Biden wanted to rename the flu [...]

(bumped up from Thursday late evening)
U.S. Senators are asking us to “thank President Obama for his [two weeks of] public service” while in her latest opinion piece, Well, That Certainly Didn’t Take Long, Maureen Dowd takes Obama to task for his arrogance. Cognitive dissonance anyone? Ms. Dowd writes:
It took Daschle’s resignation to shake [...]

You didn’t worship The One.
Now you must Pay.
Does this man’s evil vindictiveness make you shiver or what?

Update from Larry Johnson:

Tonight Senator Obama starred in his own prime time special, about Senator Obama. Is it me or is Obama passé? I find his voice — artificially deep to project gravitas — to be just as grating as George W. Bush’s faux-Texas accent.
Obama the brand is wearing thin. He has his own hand sign, his own [...]

This guy deserves to go down in flames by one state and one vote on November 4th just for spite.
White House staff have met with both presidential candidates and their senior staffs to brief them on possible terrorist threats and current National Security issues between election day and January. Vetting of potential presidential staff members [...]

Obama never had the support of the LGBT community. Indeed, 63% of LGBT Democrats supported Hillary Clinton during the California primary, while a paltry 29% cast their votes for Barack Obama. I imagine LGBT support for Clinton was equally strong in other states, for according to a poll conducted last November, this constituency [...]

Ah, the arrogance and hubris of the messiah from Honolulu truly is a wonder to behold. He could apologize but he won’t. Instead he will have that McCain ad running and running.
Obama’s charge might be true if it were true that only the McCain campaign is outraged or if they were the first to be [...]

Sarah Palin’s speech on Wednesday night might be the defining moment of the General Election. According to CBS’s new poll, Obama’s post-convention bounce has evaporated and the race is again tied. It’s likely that McCain will pull ahead with his own convention bounce. One of few sane netroots bloggers, Jerome Armstrong, sifting through the CBS [...]

Steve Clemons is one of the classiest and most fair-minded people I know. He makes every effort to always give people the benefit of the doubt. He demonstrates in every action and in all of his writings the “Golden Rule.”
Furthermore, if you’ve ever been lucky enough to have turned on C-Span during [...]

Obama’s campaign doesn’t need fundraisers or organizers. It needs a team of psychiatrists—and quick. Obama has decided it’s just fine to give the cold shoulder to Hillary Clinton and her 18 million voters—and to former President Bill Clinton—never calling them, or including them in development of strategy, and excluding the most capable political people who [...]
