Katie Couric's Interview With Obama (Sans Obama)

I wish — WISH — McCain could get grilled like this. EVER. No wonder nobody cares about this nitwit.

COURIC: Before the surge, as you know, Senator, there were 80 to 100 U.S. casualties a month, the country was rife with sectarian violence, and you raised a lot of eyebrows on this trip saying even knowing what you know now, you still would not have supported the surge. People may be scratching their heads and saying, “Why?”

COURIC: But didn’t the surge … help do that?

COURIC: All that may be true. But do you not give the surge any credit for reducing violence in Iraq?

COURIC: But talking microcosmically, did the surge, the addition of 30,000 additional troops … help the situation in Iraq?

COURIC: But yet you’re saying … given what you know now, you still wouldn’t support it … so I’m just trying to understand this.

COURIC: And I really don’t mean to belabor this, Senator, because I’m really, I’m trying to figure out your position. Do you think the level of security in Iraq … would exist today without the surge?

A Short Primer on McCainomics Versus Obamanomics: Top-Down or Bottom-Up

nickdouglas:

By former Department of Labor secretary Robert Reich. I hadn’t thought of the advantage of the bottom-up approach in a global market, where workers and consumers have more ties to the American economy than corporations do. Reich describes Obama’s bottom-up approach as a way to sidestep the current problems of supply and demand with innovation.

I’m not sure I’m getting across the satisfying mental leap I got from this piece, so I hope you read it, it’s short.

cameronr: p2pnet totally stole this idea from us. So true! However, that Posh one is amazing. (I still think my idea of Kim Jong-Il going as a vagina should have made the cut.)

Bobby Jindal Not Interested in Being VP I know, I know… Blah, politics, blah. But still, thank God. Let’s hope this is TRUTH. In reality, whoever McCain picks is a shitty choice because McCain is a shitty liar of a choice and we’re effed either way if he somehow gets elected, but in the off chance that he somehow does, at least now it’s not a 100% guarantee that the apocalypse is happening. Bobby Jindal did, after all, say that he thinks intelligent design is the very best science out there, and really wants his kids to be taught about it in school, and while hopefully that makes you LOL just as hard as it makes me (in my mind) LOL, take a look at this chart, note the fact that every developed country in the world aside from Turkey believes in evolution more than America (even Poland!), and then maybe have a bit of a cry, because FOX News is NOT a reliable source, and this guy scares the corduroy pants out of me.

Hah! Maybe the press hates McCain so much because he overcooked their chicken.
