Taking on "fake neutrality" at Personal Democracy Forum

Comment in News (1 digg, 0 replies) - on 06/24/2008
In discussing coverage of the Iraq war, she pointed out that the media seems compelled to deliver two sides even when one of the "sides" is clearly wrong. She said that reporting two sides to that question is like going to a doctor and the doctor tells y … (see comment)

Clinton to force herself as VP - over Obama's objection

Comment in News (0 diggs, 0 replies) - on 05/08/2008
I looked at the Dem party rules to find support for this idea while writing the blog piece, but I couldn't find any. As I read it, the delegates elect both candidates separately. If you can find the place in the rules where the nominee can reject a VP c … (see comment)

Kentucky Superdelegate Rep. Chandler Endorses Obama

Comment in News (3 diggs, 0 replies) - on 04/29/2008
I think he made the right decision. But more importantly, he made a decision. Now it is time for the remaining superdelegates to make up their minds so we can have a nominee. C'mon! The 300-odd others in this position are supposed to be "superdelegate … (see comment)

Obama Called Upon to Reject Michael Moore, MoveOn.org

Comment in News (2 diggs, 1 reply) - on 04/26/2008
Are you insane? Really? You think Obama could even be "with the terrorists"? Smear. No basis in reality. If wanting our children to come home and stop getting killed in Iraq is being "with the terrorists", then about 2/3 of Americans are "with the te … (see comment)

Which Side Are You On? -- Ralph Nader for President in 2008

Comment in News (1 digg, 1 reply) - on 04/25/2008
Um, yes, of course. McCain needs all the help he can get. Maybe Nader can add "McCain's war against Iran" to his legacy, to complement "Bush's war against Iraq". (see comment)

Sorry. My prior comment was meant to post to a pro-Nader digg article, don't know why it posted here. (see comment)

McCain Plagiarized Retired Admiral in Foreign Policy Speech

Comment in News (-11 diggs, 0 replies) - on 03/27/2008
Maybe this explains his Iraq "are they Shiite or Sunni" gaffe -- he probably cribbed the speech from somebody else who got it wrong. (see comment)

Make Michigan and Florida Count

Comment in News (-4 diggs, 0 replies) - on 03/27/2008
The Clinton's ability to bend reality is at play here. It is much easier to conduct a caucus than a full primary. The DNC has long accepted caucuses as a legitimate way to measure the will of the electorate. It is only because Hillary Clinton's top-dow … (see comment)

MoveOn Responds to Clinton-supporting Fat Cats

Comment in News (32 diggs, 0 replies) - on 03/27/2008
She should just start her own party, "The Clinton Party", and get it over with. It is all about her anyhow. No cost too high to feed her ambitions. (see comment)

Growing Superdelegate Outrage At Clinton Tactics

Comment in News (1 digg, 0 replies) - on 03/26/2008
All it would take is for the superdelegates to believe in democracy. They should simply promise not to overturn the decision of the pledged delegates. Game over. (see comment)

Clinton tells pledged delegates peoples votes don't matter.

Comment in News (1 digg, 0 replies) - on 03/26/2008
Sadly, the same is true of the general election: Electors are free to defect and vote for the other candidate (or anybody). It happened to Gore in 2000 (an elector from D.C. cast a blank ballot). I thought in 2000 that there was actually an outside cha … (see comment)

He has a 6 year old and a 9 year old. I know if I was away from my kids about 99% of the time trying to make the world a better place, my kids would be all over me for some daddy time. Give him a break. I'd rather have a President Obama, who is willing … (see comment)

Hillary Will Release Tax Returns Three Days Before Primary

Comment in News (1 digg, 0 replies) - on 03/26/2008
My theory: She releases incomplete and redacted returns and three days is simply not enough time for the evasive and incomplete nature of the release to impact the vote in Pennsylvania. More calculated manipulation of the truth, big shock. (see comment)
