The hurricane season of 2008 sets a new record Today's formation of Bertha at 25° West longitude is the farthest east a tropical storm has ever formed in the Atlantic so early in the season. It is also the farthest east a tropical storm has formed in the month of July. Reliable records of Eastern Atlantic storms go back to 1967, the beginning of the geostationary satellite era. Is the formation of Bertha a harbinger of an active hurricane season? Probably. . . . wunderground.com.

Ted, > I feel a little sorry for the guy Not to worry, he can follow in Scott McClellan's footsteps and write a "tell-all" book. Like McClellan, the royalties from the book should cover for the fact that neither of them can get a real job. Tenchusatsu

I would think that Gonzo, as a sleazy attorney with the proven ability to spout the most outrageous and ridiculous of lies for their client, would easily find work in the (R) world. Perhaps it's that he spent whatever credibility he might have had for W, as with all the rest of W's credibility whores.

Timetable under the bus? Damn, that was fast. But more explicit abandonment of the timetable for withdrawal will be coming, I'm sure. He's even hinting at it now - "refine my policies". Ha ha. It Is Done: Cheap Trick Obama Flops On Iraq It is done... Obama performs double twisting back half ganor on Iraq. Barack Obama, on July 17, 2008: The United States cannot use its military to solve humanitarian problems and that preventing a potential genocide in Iraq isn’t a good enough reason to keep U.S. forces there. Barack Obama, April 16, 2008: Charles Gibson: "And, Senator Obama, your campaign manager, David Plouffe, said, 'When he is' -- this is talking about you - 'When he is elected president, we will be out of Iraq in 16 months at the most. There should be no confusion about that.' So you'd give the same rock-hard pledge, that no matter what the military commanders said, you would give the order to bring them home?" Obama: "Because the commander-in-chief sets the mission, Charlie. That's not the role of the generals. And one of the things that's been interesting about the president's approach lately has been to say, 'Well, I'm just taking cues from General Petraeus.' Well, the president sets the mission. The general and our troops carry out that mission." Barack Obama, July 3, 2008: “I’ve always said that the pace of withdrawal would be dictated by the safety and security of our troops and the need to maintain stability. That assessment has not changed. And when I go to Iraq and have a chance to talk to some of the commanders on the ground, I’m sure I’ll have more information and will continue to refine my policies.” posted by Gateway Pundit at 7/03/2008 01:41:00 PM gatewaypundit.blogspot.com
