John McCain Sought Hagee’s Endorsement
Let’s see Hagee in action on CNN Anderson Cooper. Talk about extremist. It’s time to be fair.
Obama “A More Perfect Union” Speech in Philadelphia
Obama’s speech today truly was the “A More Perfect Union” speech. The most compelling reaction to Obama’s speech on America and race today comes from Henry on Crooked Timber:
“I’ve been thinking most of today about Barack Obama’s speech on race and American society; while we’ve tried to avoid too much horserace type commentary here […]

Lion Greets Rescuer with Hugs and Kisses
Adorable. In case you haven’t seen it:
Did Lionel Richie Use Helium at the Broad Contemporary Opening?
Attendee David Byrne probably would have mentioned it if he had. Helium would’ve made “Easy” (like Sunday morning) less middle of the road for sure (via Balloon Juice, via Andrew Sullivan).
When Your President Keeps Trying to Scare the Crap Out of You
How do you respond to President’s Bush’s effort to scare the American public once again into supporting his efforts to protect corporations and spy on American citizens by supporting the Protect America Act?

That’s what you think.
McCain at CPAC
Funny, there was some definite booing of McCain’s at CPAC, even though conference attendees were warned NOT to boo McCain (via INP). Granted, I wasn’t there but Anne Schroeder Mullins of Politico was. Obviously the CPAC crowd pulled behind McCain–what choice do they have? Huckabee? It doesn’t even look possible. […]
Paradise Hotel 2 Monday,Super Tuesday, and Barack Obama “Yes We Can” Video. Am I in Heaven?
I have a couple of things to say tonight as we heard into Super Tuesday. First. Paradise Hotel 2 made a somewhat staid comeback to semi-network TV on Monday night.

Reno’s Own Kathi Brandhorst in Stars Wars Mashup
I don’t usually like to make fun of actual crazy people but, in this case, I couldn’t stop myself. This is for those of you who attend city council meetings and wonder exactly what is going on in Ms. Brandhorst’s head. Okay, it doesn’t really explain that, but it does point to some […]
