Political bits - Part II

TPM is reporting that the reason the NIE(and other critical intelligence documents) were kept from the whole committee because they couldn't be scanned in. RIIIGGGHHHTTT....

Apparently Rumsfeld didn't get the memo about "staying the course."

A ruling on same sex marriage is due in NJ tomorrow that could supply some fuel for the sputtering GOP machine.

And, I found this interesting. James Sensenbrenner, one of the harshest pushers of anti-immigration legislation, has one of the lowest percentages of illegals in his district. (Now tell me it's not racist politics.)

  • Now tell me it's not racist politics.

    Of course it is. Duh. (no insult intended)

    Now over in Virginia, I've heard a lot of talk about how modern and civilized their electorate is and that there is great unease with George Allen's racist not-so-distant past. Bull. The polls say about half the Virginia electorate is just A-OK with a racist bigot speaking for them in the Senate.

    My point is, these race-baiting, knuckle draggers didn't get elected by accident. More people voted for them than did their opponents.

    (typo in prior comment. posting again.)

  • I've been thinking that about Virginia for the last couple weeks.

    And I'm afraid Harold ford is going to be caught in a similar ugly wave.

    (And, you can leave the typos up. I can figure it out. You don't have to be perfect.)
