Oops! She did it again! From the Family Circle - the candidates' spouses were asked for recipes for this cookie contest. Bill credited his recipe to the family cook, Michelle to the girls' godmother.

The recipe came from a good friend. -------------------------------------------------------- (Link) Cindy McCain...

Or remember what happened to poor Jim Hatfield, who wrote the unauthorized biography of George Bush in 2000 but was destroyed when h...

Clinton was too cowardly to go on air to debate her Democratic primary challenger in 2006. She did not want to talk about the war then, and she did not have to because she was in the lead.

The MILLIONS Bill is collecting from foreign entities and billionaire American cronies (Giustra, Burkle) goes into their joint assets which Hillary then taps whenever her campaign needs another $5 million.

Ben Smith picked it up from that site and posted it at Politico at 7:50 p.m. The Times did not post it until 9:00 p.m. So regardless of whether the Obama campaign gave it to the Times, the photo was already out there well before that.
