For those of you who did not experience Betsy's bizarre career in New York politics in the 90's, a bit of background. Betsy was picked out of thin air as Pataki's running mate in 1996. Following their election, she took umbrage that her "policy papers" were not being taken seriously by the Pataki administration, famously stood during Pataki's entire State of the State address, announced that her phones were being checked for "bugs," and was subsequently shunned by the entire state Republican ...

To his credit, he told the Deathers at his town hall to turn off the television when Glenn Beck comes on, because he's "trading on fear." He was shouted down. But on Hardball tonight he said this, which sums up the Republican opposition to health care reform, IMO. From Hardball: "I sent out a press release last week saying there are sixteen reasons to oppose Obamacare, the top one being that the public option will put private insurance out of business, I fear, and the result will be that ...

I will send a donation as soon as he releases his medical bills and hospital records. Kenneth Gladney sat in a wheelchair on Pershing Avenue Saturday, his knee bandaged, holding a flag that read: "Don't Tread on Me." Gladney, 38, was handing out the same flags after a town hall forum in Mehlville Thursday night, when, he says, he was attacked by members of the Service Employees International Union. Less than 48 hours later, protesters gathered Saturday in front of the union's offices, ...

And this is the provision in the Health Care Bill that allows doctors to charge for their time when counseling patients on their options regarding the Living Will and Health Care Proxy. Nobody is required to sign these forms, or even attend a counseling session regarding these forms. However, I don't know anyone who makes a will or goes into the hospital for surgery who isn't given the option of signing one of these forms. These forms make explicit your wishes should you be incapacitated and una...

Forget the Freepers. They are dumb as a box of rocks, and once again they've been duped into frothing at the mouth over a non-issue by professional fiction-writers.

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. And Cindy? Originally for special occasions only, these butterscotch-chip-studded cookies are now "an absolute must" whenever the whole family gets together, says Cindy.

Can you BELIEVE this list? And I DELETED ALL THE DEBTS UNDER $1000 just to make the list manageable. WTF? Interesting that the "fired" Mark Penn was paid $3,098,972.00 and is OWED $4,825,911.61. That's $8M this month to her "former" strategist. I'd imagine some of these small businesses might like to get their invoices paid. I know $10,941.07 isn't a lot to a $109-millionairess, but I bet it really matters to . This list is appalling. Shame on her. How can she pretend to claim the mantle ...

James Wolcott in Vanity Fair: (Link) ---snip--- MSNBC’s Chris Matthews is fond of repeating the political maxim “Democrats fall in love, Republicans fall in line,” and a halfhearted queue formed behind McCain’s candidacy despite the cranky impetuosities of a highly crafted nonconformity that grated on the Rush Limbaugh dittoheads, the Club for Growth tax-cut fanatics, and the nativists who wanted to Berlin Wall the border with Mexico to keep out the intruders causing Lou Dobbs such gastr...

What is the SOURCE of that video? Between Blumenthal and the , a new distraction was needed. Rove's favorite dirty trick is to plant a fake bombshell and then use it to discredit his opponent. You might remember his first dirty trick, in college (before he dropped out), when he planted a bug in his own campaign office and then accused his opponents of doing it. 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. She refused to participate in a SINGLE debate, despite many pleas and offers. NOW she's heckling Obama, who has already debated with her more than 20 times? That's rich.

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. In effect, foreign governments and special interests are financing her campaign by funneling money to her through sweetheart deals with her husband. But those questions are never raised because we are too busy asking Obama why he doesn't wear a FLAG PIN on his fucking lapel and querying why ...

They plan on NEVER releasing the current and past donor lists, as per Lisa Myers' story on MSNBC today.
