I’ll be lurking at the American Political Science Association annual gathering in Chicago from Thursday (tomorrow) through Sunday. Nothing like YearlyKos, but still — you learn stuff from academics. . .and tons of them are reading this and other blogs. I’ll be downtown and don’t know my schedule fully.
A note from Tucker Carlson: Let me be clear about an incident I referred to on MSNBC last night: In the mid-1980s, while I was a high school student, a man physically grabbed me in a men’s room in Washington, DC. I yelled, pulled away from him and ran out of the room.
I will avoid today discussion of the reasons why so many men chose to look for sex partners in public bathrooms, gyms, and the like over the last few decades.
A new, interesting blog — Wonkosphere — monitors how much ‘buzz’ is flying around the blogosphere on the various presidential candidates. Interestingly, Ron Paul places second at the moment behind front-runner, Hillary Rodham Clinton. Obama is third. Chris Dodd runs in seventh place but beats Giuliani, Huckabee, McCain, Brownback, and Kucinich.
NATIONAL HARDWOOD LUMBER ASSOCIATION PAC INC Sen. Craig, Larry E. (R-Idaho) (Incumbent, Senate) CRAIG FOR U S SENATE $2,000, 10/21/2002 I’m sorry. I can’t help it today — and as regular TWN readers know, I’m almost never funny.
Americans want a good impeachment, but the will is just not there yet to seriously go after the President or Vice President.
Too bad Senator Craig did not read up on the granddaughter of Senator John H. Bankhead, Tallulah Bankhead, who had this to say about her foot-tapping experiences under bathroom stalls: There was the time she was in Washington for a Democratic Convention honoring her "divine friend, Adlai Stevenson" . . .
Woolsey’s everywhere. Working hard to start a war with Iran — and perhaps planning to make a lot of money off the conflict if things swing that way.
Give her a break. It was a tough question.
A birthday gift for me? Alberto Gonzales has resigned. The inevitable certaily does take a long time in this administration.
