The Obama Must Choir.
It’s like listening to a junior high school band complain about Yo Yo Ma’s cello technique.
DING! DING! DING!
I take my shots, but in the end I know McCain in charge would be an order of magnitude worse in every respect.
Da. Mr. Fishwrap Writer is tiresome.
We have a user here named asshat or aaphat or something like that who was telling me that Obama had broken every promise on marijuana after he had been president for 48 hours.
Guess not.
would be refreshing!
Obama administration caught up to DEA in the third day or so, and told them to stop the raids. My God, how much could he do while dancing the inauguration balls!
Interesting Collision in Space
That is interesting. Iridium is the company that offers worldwide satellite phone service and they have a whole bunch of satellites in space, with some backups that can be repositioned to replace failed satellites and still offer coverage to the whole globe. I would guess that they were probably repositioning one and ran into an old dead Russian satellite.
One of these days we are going to have serious issues with “space junk” and have to come up with a way to remove all of the old junk littering the earth’s orbit-space.
was sold by Motorola at a tremendous loss, and resurrected by entrepreneurs to have a great private function. (I’ve heard, though can’t document it, that the world’s commercial fishing fleet depends on it)
Shows ya what Motorola management knew!
I hope that the don’t have large deductibles.
the should be they.
How’s this for credibility? After three weeks of calling stimulus bill supporters names, Sirota calls its passage a huge victory for progressives.
It’s nice of you to keep linking to him. I’ve read more David Sirota in the last hour than I have in the last month. I’m sure he appreciates you directing readers to him.
don’t forget, he’s a nationally syndicated columnist.
I seem to recall him saying something about that once. Or twice.
And as we all know, national syndication is the mark of highest quality. Sirota is right up there with the kings of the form – David Brooks, Bill Kristol, Robert Novack …
How…Rovian.
At least he didn’t mean to hurt your personal feelings, just (presumably) your professional ones, whatever the hell that means. I started and deleted a comment over there last night because it’s just pissing in the wind. Plus, the thing is, I don’t even believe Sirota believes what he says. It’s a pose struck for effect, to garner attention, which has been working. Ninety percent of his posts should be troll-rated.
It’s also somewhat funny that now lambert is critical of Sirota, too, because (a) lambert’s usually wrong about everything and (b) both he and Sirota make themselves out to be Cassandras regarding Obama’s supposed sellout tendencies.
To be fair to Sirota, he never approached the level of utter lying PUMAism that Lambert reached. Sirota is a lot smarter than Lambert. Now some of Sirota’s colleagues at OpenLeft are at Lambert’s level – especially the ludicrous Paul Rosenberg whose condescending finger wagging at Obama is utterly offensive.
No doubt.
Separately, I wonder how Matt Stoller is doing on the inside.
