"John Tanner Must Go," If He Doesn't "Die First"

Defending a "controversial photo ID requirement in Georgia" that would likely discriminate against minority voters, John Tanner, the "top-ranking voting rights official at the Justice Department," said that the ID requirement does not disenfranchise minority voters because it truly disenfranchises elderly voters, and minorities "die first."

Fruit Falling far from the Tree, or Have you any Wool?

Nothing against Barack Obama, but I find this whole situation hilarious:

When asked about Hillary Clinton during an October 16, 2007, MSNBC interview, Lynne Cheney said that she had a "certain bias" as "Dick [Cheney] and Barack Obama are eighth cousins." When asked if that meant that she was supporting Senator Obama, Cheney replied, "No."

"The Obama campaign's response? 'Every family has a black sheep.'"

Cheney was on MSNBC plugging her new book, Blue Skies, Open Fences. When she appeared on the Daily Show on October 10, Cheney claimed that there have been no terrorist attacks against the United States or American interests since 9/11. When Jon Stewart mentioned the bombings in Madrid and London, Cheney argued that these attacks on our allies' capitals did not count because "we were talking about American interests." The audience booed. Watch it:

This Is Bullsh*t!

Bush Commutes Libby Sentence

Senator Barack Obama responded with this statement, and I completely agree:

This decision to commute the sentence of a man who compromised our national security cements the legacy of an Administration characterized by a politics of cynicism and division, one that has consistently placed itself and its ideology above the law. This is exactly the kind of politics we must change so we can begin restoring the American people’s faith in a government that puts the country’s progress ahead of the bitter partisanship of recent years.
