(Bumped up from early morning.)
In my earlier post, holder: obama does not decide who will be prosecuted, I wrote,

Inspired Choices for DNI and CIA? »

By Larry Johnson on Jan 5, 2009 in Current Affairs | 95 Comments

At first blush Barack Obama has bested both Bill Clinton and George W. Bush in his choice of leaders for the intelligence community. Retired Admiral Dennis Blair was named as the Director of National Intelligence and former White House Chief of Staff, Leon Panetta, snagged the Director of the CIA. If you look [...]

Radicals Use Obama to Push anti-American Agendas »

By medusa on Sep 29, 2008 in Barack Obama, Bill Ayers, Current Affairs, Daily Kos, Democratic Party, Khalid al-Mansour, Sarah Palin, Terrorism | 180 Comments

Barack Obama is a creation of like-minded professional and amateur political operatives. Whether it’s the corrupt Chicago Machine or the so-called progressives with their socialist agenda or the ruthless and power-grubbing leaders of the Democratic Party, Obama has arrived at the top of the ticket and tied in the polls as a politically “made [...]

Why Some So-Called Progressives Don’t Get It? »

By Larry Johnson on Sep 7, 2008 in Current Affairs | 263 Comments

You can not script this madness. There are many on the extreme left of the political spectrum–the Barack Obama, Tom Hayden, Nancy Pelosi side of the ledger–who hate the Clintons for moving the Democratic party towards the positions of the Democratic Leadership Council. Let’s face it, if Bill Clinton had kept his pecker [...]

The so far left that they forgot what is right wing of the Democratic party has taken a new tact. They have decided that they don’t really have a problem with swiftboating after all. Just as long as the shoe is on the other foot. And Republicans are the ones wearing it. Starting this week [...]

If they start to foam at the mouth about you I guess what you are saying is having some kind of impact, so the lumping of my work along with others under the title of a recent blog called “Lies, Damnable Lies, and Political Commentary,” should perhaps be viewed as a kind of praise.
