Political Bits

(CNN) Jenna Bush is engaged.

(BostonHerald) Romney gets slammed for making investing in stem cell tech companies. (Normally I'd let this go as it's blind trust, but Romney's on record in '94, "The blind trust is an age-old ruse,” Romney was quoted as saying at the time.)

(Politico) Robert Mueller has turned over a highly redacted version of his notes from the Ashcroft hospital room meeting and surrounding meetings. (Let's remember that Gonzales "couldn't recall" whether the president was aware of that meeting.)

(WaPo) Ed Gillespie steps into part of Rove's shoes.

(AFP) An antiwar group was warned to remove posters promoting its march in DC because of "improper adhesives." (Right.)

And, the Republicans may control the organized slime like the Swift Boaters, but the viral video belongs to the individual Dems. Gays for Giuliani. (There's a reason for this. Humor comes from the subversion of power, not the application of power. It is the jiujitsu to the Republicans' sumo.)

(Oh, and another embarrassing Giuliani video which contradicts his current "fence" position on immigration. From '96 and pointed to reporters by the Romney campaign.)

  • "Jenna Bush is engaged."

    And this immediately popped into my head:

    "Too bad her father is so disengaged."
