Who’s Coming To Hang Out With Obama In Our White House? »

You may recall that when Bush was president, it was like pulling teeth trying to find out just who had visited the White House. Let’s just say he dug in his heels a bit on releasing that information. Maybe it had something to do with Cheney’s “secret” Energy Meeting, who knows, but it [...]

The President Slams His Sycophants, His Policies and His Staff at Dinner »

President Obama spoke at the TV and Radio Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday, where some of his jokes reflected a greater attachment to truth than he finds necessary in any of his speeches or press conferences. Although, like his predecessor, who chose to joke about looking for WMDs under the podium when delivering a speech, [...]

It was everything you would expect from the first round of a March Madness Tournament. Upsets, buzzer beaters, overtime and blowouts.

O, Come Let Us Adore Him »

Oh, boy - this is quite some article by Howard Kurtz in the Washington Post (H/T to athy at No Quarter for this article). He really tells it like it is. I wonder if he still has a job there? Just the title alone gives it away: “A Giddy Sense of Boosterism.”
Holy [...]

When It Comes to Obama, Is It Jackie Robinson or Sally Fields? »

He is a quintessential enigma wrapped in a conundrum (i.e., an [...]

What happened???
It seems that the preponderance of her viewers are those nasty “expendible” [...]

Thank God for archives. The post below was written on December 11, 2007 in response to a rant that Air America host Randi Rhodes (her ghost as far as I’m concerned) went on regarding Oprah Winfrey and her "blackness". Now, it appears, Randi is [...]

Empty Seats at “Magical” Obama/Oprah Event »

An old pal just sent me this image of today’s Obama event at UCLA in Los Angeles the Meadowlands in New Jersey. Politico’s Ben Smith adds:
You won’t see this in most of the news photography, because photographers are packed into press risers, opposite whatever backdrop — a crowd, a flag — the campaign prefers.
But [...]
