It is a pleasure to see the Bushrovers being dealt with like the little criminals they are.
It’s not only that Libby has been indicted. The whole process that Fitzgerald and his team have pursued is a classic of prosecutorial form, in particular the way in which they are winding it up. They are dealing [...]

Where are the Weapons of Mass 1st Amendment Destruction?

An explosion of indictment rumors has been coruscating through blogland and the MSM in the past couple of days. One pair of sparks was the publication in last Sunday’s New York Times of both Judy Miller’s statement about her grand jury testimony as well as (finally) coverage of her situation in depth by a team [...]

Think I’m crazy for yesterday’s post on IMPEACHMENT? Hot off the blogs and wires just today:
Andrew Card’s disquisition on Harriet Miers and constitutional law, pointer thanks to Laura Rozen at Warandpiece.com (my daily read along with the WSJ and NYT). Laura calls out coverage by Harold Meyerson in a TAPPED account of a talk by [...]

The right wing is certainly unhappy with their commander in chief on the Supreme Court front. For once, right wingnuts have better arguments against the Bushrovers than the lefties. The execrable Michele Malkin provides a great roundup.
One of the more practical arguments from this right side of the debate questions what pragmatic use Ms. [...]

Back in April, I started to think that Bush was finally heading for the public fall that he so richly deserves. I was remembering how slowly and inescapably Nixon’s political opponents built his gibbet during the months of the Watergate hearings, a public hanging to which he himself brought all the rope his opponents would [...]
Dutch treat

When I arrived in Maastricht, the Netherlands, on Sunday the 8th, the flight attendant on the small Cityhopper jet excitedly pointed out the Queen’s airplane, parked next door to our spot on the tarmac. The Maastricht airport is modest. Besides my flight from Amsterdam, the Queen’s plane was it—a small commercial jet (like a downsized [...]
“Support our troops”

Should I be bothered by the fact that more than two years on, Marines still can’t get armor on their vehicles, when so much additional, non-US blood has been spilled?
For a view from Company E, see Michael Moss’s article in the NY Times.
The photo is by Capt. Kelly Royer, who "took photos of [...]
Dr. Bolton & Mr. Bolton

In a couple of recent posts (Tweedledee & Tweedledumb 1 & 2) I said that there were some questions that the Bolton nomination (a brand-new one at the time) impose on the left:
One is to ask what it tells us
about BushRover-World that this unilateralist extremism is necessary
to them. Another is to ask what we need [...]

One of the problems with demonizing W and his band of BushRovers
is that those they themselves demonize start to look angelic.
Bolton, for example, has a personal mission to get rid of Mohamed
ElBaradei, the Director General of the IAEA, the atomic energy agency
within the UN. [...]

Standing to the (our) right of Condi, as he does in fact, is J.R. Bolton, W’s pick for new UN ambassador. He follows in a line of appropriate choices for this post by the BushRovers, including the peripatetic John Negroponte, now designee for intelligence czar.
Recently returned from a brief stint as ambassador to Iraq, [...]
