The "miracle" of Dumbyasshole's "ownership society" :

Not since the Depression has a larger share of Americans owed more on their homes than they are worth. With the collapse of the housing boom, nearly 8.8 million homeowners, or 10.3 percent of the total, are underwater. That is more than double the percentage just a year ago, according to a new estimate of the damage by Moody’s Economy.com.

Whatever your idiot leader touches, turns to crap!

Dumbyasshole's Iraq "miracle" continues to flower :

In “the first confirmed ground operation by the Turkish military into Iraq since the U.S.-led invasion,” as many as 10,000 Turkish troops pursued separatist Kurdish rebels across the border into Iraq yesterday. The operation raises concerns of a wider conflict between Turkey and the Iraqi Kurds.

The hypocritical McBush :

Despite his rhetoric against lobbyists and special interests, “virtually every one” of Sen. John McCain’s (R-AZ) “closest advisers” are “part of the Washington lobbying culture.” McCain’s campaign manager, chief political adviser, and other senior advisers are all current or former lobbyists. Some are still being paid by lobbying firms while working on the campaign.

Note that this should actually endear McCain with the Regressive voters, since they are very happy to let corporate lobbyists call the shots. However, this blows away the bullsh** "maverick" image of McBush and will turn the independents away from him.

US Army to respect those who honor Moqtada al Sadr's decree :

Influential Shiite cleric Moqtada Sadr ordered his Mahdi Army militia on Friday to extend a ceasefire for another six months. Those who honor Sadr’s “pledge will be treated with respect and restrain,” the U.S. military said.

More dishonesty from the so-called Straight Talker, McBush :

Today, Sen. John McCain’s (R-AZ) campaign manager Rick Davis writes:

Objective observers are viewing this article exactly as they should - as a sleazy smear attack from a liberal newspaper against the conservative Republican frontrunner. … Washington attorney Bob Bennett, who was the Democrat counsel during the Keating investigation, said, “This is a real hit job.”

Bennett is far from an “objective observer.” In fact, Bennett is currently being paid by McCain to help beat back the New York Times story.
