There is a hurricane/TS brewing off the coast of Texas. Be prepared for gas hikes this week.

But, but, but... we were told that our oil infrastructure is 100% safe from hurricanes!

The Brad Blog: Open season on liberals continues. It was always more important to link the attacks to Islamic terrorists than look for the truth. Consider: Anthrax attacks = Patriot Act. There are still a lot of questions and too many easy answers around this matter.

Wow, to think that ON THE DAY of 9/11, while the nation was reeling from the sheer terror of it, there were people in the GOP thinking to themselves, "hmm, how can I use this to my advantage?"

Even more depressing that ABC and other MSM sources were the ones that started it.

"liberals" (purposeful quotes) are to the media and political establishment what prostitutes are to law enforcement: second-class citizens that shouldn't be surprised that they are targets of violence, who are semi-responsible for any violent act perpetrated against them simply b/c of who they are.

on top of that, the ivins story stinks to high heaven

OMG!

I had no idea it was McCain's Campaign who had actually PUT Obama's face on a $100 bill.

Remember - it was Obama's remark "I don't look like any of our presidents whose faces are on our dollar bills" that touched of the "Obama played the race card" allegations.

Watch it !!!

check out 'the shock doctrine', if you haven't already. this is the MO of the right.

like a trap-door spider they lie in wait for tragedy to befall then they spring on to the hapless victims

sorry, tha's vague unless you are already familiar with that book...

the shock doctrine, by naomi kline (for what its worth)

naomi KLEIN... yikes, monday morning indeed

Dr. Britney Hussein Matt @ 1:

Not only were there terrorist attacks on US soil following 9/11, if it's indeed true that Ivins was the terrorist, he was yet ANOTHER reich-wing GOPig terrorist! Priceless.

Reminds me of the Atlanta Olympics Bomber. The only difference is that this time the suspect died before he could be proven innocent. Convenient?!

I just visited Kos and saw Obama's new ad regarding energy. You'll like it!

Linky pleasy.

MORE MORE MORE. And put Bush in EVERY ad...real pictures...especially the one of him hugging McCain.

okay, what part of this don't they understand. the fact of the matter is they understand very well all of it. When one candidate has the other candidate by the short hairs, why should that candidate expose himself to a possible Karl Rove sniping. Though this one candidate has intellect far and above the other, as well as being on the right side of every issue, there is no need to possible expose one's self to entrapment. does the term "swift boat" come to mind. Time and again, the right has twisted the truth and outright lied to achieve their ends and now they are trying to goad obama into meaningless debates. true, it would expose mcsenile for what he is, but obama would be susceptible to the entire corrupt right wing political machine. and that machine has shown it will stop at nothing to achieve its corrupt end. they are ruthless and without morals.

call me crazy, but that ad has a high risk of blowback

Here KO comes out with a shoddy take that Ivans actually did it.

We don't know that. The FBI is seems now had not even advanced to the stage of bringing an indictment vote before the grand jury. Despite the trumpeting that suggests otherwise.

Ivans, it appears, still had a security clearance.

The media is being shoddy in general about this affair even though some much doesn't add up.

The questions are outpacing the answers.

Theorizing in advance of the answers is counterproductive.

The place that I start does not give anyone in this government am automatic pass.

The information that Brian Ross and ABC News had about the then stated but later it seems admittedly disclosed as somehow concocted story of the "bentonite" and an Iraq connection is in at least one expert's stated opinion a thread which will suggest obstruction of justice (see GG below).

That is to say there is a large dangling thread that prima facie indicates more central characters in this cast.

If these are characters that have not been suicided then they are characters whose stories should be developing legs.

Here, is Glenn Greenwald's latest that sharpens the perspective.

The people who are slimed by the GOP aren't "exposing themselves"...they're merely running for elective office against a rethuglican. You fight fire with fire. Hoping it will go away is not an option, nor is staying out of elections.

The anthrax story just gets weirder. ABC pushing propaganda is troubling regardless of any other details.
