I’m afraid that’s about the best I can do with “Obama Biden.” (And I already repent….) HT Ann Althouse.

It’s August 27, which according to astrological tradition, is Glenn Reynolds’ birthday. So HAPPY BIRTHDAY GLENN! While I’ll spare readers my customary “666” nonsense (as well as evil shirts and crossed swords), I will note that on this date last year, Coco was in heat on Glenn’s birthday, and in the middle of amorous pursuits.…

Stephen Green explains what it is like covering the DNC. To give you an idea, gentle reader, what a political convention is like, I’ve had a total of seven hours sleep in the last two nights, I’ve walked about ten miles, acquired a VERY nice tan, attended I don’t know how many protests, filed two…

One of them is Alexi Giannoulias. Giannoulias also hosted a fund-raiser for Obama in Chicago in September, 2007, omitting it from his public schedule and keeping it closed to the press. Could it be that Obama didn’t want the press asking questions about a New York Post article published that same morning entitled “Obama’s Mob-Tie…

Larry Johnson is having a look at the response by the group running the Obama/Ayers ad to the suit filed with the Justice Department asking them to block the airing of the ad. The Obama Memo argues initially that AIP’s substantial and thorough 167-page documentation and research in support of the Ad, which was provided…

I was visiting Althouse and came across this comment by a guy bashing Republicans: They prefer war to diplomacy Just anther instance of the left not getting it. War is diplomacy by other means – Clauzwitz. See, it works like this – if you have a carrot and a stick you can accomplish more than…

And using her ad against Obama is just plain mean!

That last post leaves me wondering about the “housecleaning” identified by Hot Air, and my question about why the Obama campaign would scrub its characterization of Bill Ayers as “mainstream.” Especially because I enjoy playing Devil’s Advocate, it occurs to me that perhaps I should take another look at Barack Obama’s position. The question is…

Asking such a question can apparently lead to legal trouble. Amazingly (and stupidly, IMO), Barack Obama’s campaign is taking legal action against a group which produced a video asking that question. The video (claims the campaign) is malicious and false. “Barack Obama is friends with Ayers, defending him as, quote, ‘Respectable’ and ‘Mainstream,’” the group’s…

When I read about Barack Obama’s half brother living in poverty in a shanty area in Kenya, it occurred to me that the contrast between the two might become an issue in the campaign. After all, imagine what would happen if it were discovered that John McCain had a half brother living in squalor somewhere.…

I don’t actually believe in the Anti-Christ, but I’ve just been made aware of a conspiracy so dark and so ugly that I had to share it with the world: Dmitry Medvedev is actually 90s has-been faux-rocker Dave Matthews. My girlfriend pointed it out, and I was stunned to learn the truth! If you’re not…

James Carville, Bill Clinton’s political strategist and a pretty smart guy, says the Democrats need to get on message. If they can find one. (CNN) — Have the Democrats wasted the first night of the convention? Yes, says Democratic Strategist and CNN contributor James Carville. Speaking on CNN, Carville said the party was too soft…

Bill Bradley is having a few words about the Obama vs McCain Campaigns and thinks because McCain is not getting much Shrinking Media attention for his campaign videos that McCain is losing the fight. And naturally the conventional media doesn’t link to the ad … Doh! Except 45% of the public get their information from…

Senator Obama has some associations he is not proud of. He wants to keep the above ad off TV. So obviously it is time to make the ad go viral. Email it to a friend. Heck. E-Mail it to an enemy. You can never get too much exposure for this sort of thing. Sen. Barack…

Considering that Barack Obama has many flaws, and plenty of questionable associations, there are many excellent arguments which can be advanced against his candidacy. However, I don’t think the argument that he advocates genocide against black people is one of them. Jeffrey Kuhner of the Washington Times, however, thinks Obama’s support for abortion is a…

911 Truthers will not buy this, but rationally minded people should: the NIST has had what should be the final say on the collapse of WTC 7. Evan at the Rogues Gallery has an excellent post highlighting the findings along with several sad examples of Truther denial and paranoia. Here’s the link, but for some…

Never willing to be ignored, pop star Madonna has entered the political fray to help Obama’s campaign in the most dramatic way possible. At the kickoff to her concert tour in Denver, she graphically compared McCain to Hitler, and Obama to Ghandi: DENVER, COLORADO (AFP) – John McCain’s campaign has hit back at Madonna after…
