I Just Flew In From Chicago [Dan Collins]

with bags under my eyes.  And, boy, is he Judas! According to those at the meeting, Clinton – who flew in from Chicago with bags under his eyes – was classic old Bill at first, charming and making small talk with the 15 or so delegates who gathered in a room behind the convention stage. But as the group moved together for the perfunctory photo, Rachel Binah, a former Richardson

England, 1802 [Dan Collins]

Happiness?  MILTON! thou shouldst be living at this hour: England hath need of thee: she is a fen Of stagnant waters: altar, sword, and pen, Fireside, the heroic wealth of hall and bower, Have forfeited their ancient English dower 5 Of inward happiness. We are selfish men; O raise us up, return to us again, And give us manners, virtue, freedom, power! Thy soul was like a Star, and dwelt

The Ultimate Trump Card [Dan Collins]

Jurisdiction. Separation of church and state: Choudary said he would not condemn a Muslim for any action. “As a Muslim, I must support my Muslim brothers and sisters,” Choudary said. “I must have hatred to everything that is not Muslim.” Meh. TORTURE MEMO!!! A Clockwork Pink. Sticks and stones may break my bones, So I think I’ll just shut up. Chinese Thinger Trap (h/t Reynolds)

Unctuous [Dan Collins]

Speaking of Big Oil (they don’t cry-ay-ay), Obamessiah has made claims that he doesn’t accept money from them, when in fact, he does–in any non-lawyerly understanding of the concept.

Dems 2008: David Sirota falls into the "Race Chasm" [Karl]

Syndicated columnist David Sirota (of In These Times and most other fringe-Left outlets) claims that Hillary Clinton’s “last-ditch efforts to win the Democratic nomination could rely on the ‘Race Chasm’ and the trampling of democracy.” Promoting his column at OpenLeft, Sirota writes: In my newspaper column on Friday, I touched on a little-explored phenomenon in the 2008 presidential race. Amid all the punditry and intricate television graphics showing delegate counts

Meta-Skeptical [Dan Collins; UPDATED]

TBogg pooh-poohs Zeifman’s claims that he fired Hillary for lying, insubordination and purloining documents, on the basis of a WaPo characterization of a book by Zeifman from 1996. Fortunately, Zeifman’s claims that 1) he fired her, 2) she requested a letter of recommendation and 3) that he denied her one ought all be susceptible of proof. More: if Sully seems more cogent than usual this week, it may be because

Don't Quit the Day Job (CraigC)

Captain Queeg made a “surprise” appearance during Letterman’s monologue tonight.  Either he’s feeling so confident about the election that he thinks he can goof off, or he’s worried enough about it that he’s considering his options.  It’s about 2:55 in.

Dems 2008: Clinton impeded Watergate investigation, withheld information from Congress [Karl]

At HotAir, Ed Morrissey is flagging a column by Dan Calabrese, in which Jerry Zeifman — chief counsel to the House Judiciary Committee during the Watergate hearings — says that Hillary Clinton conspired to deny Richard Nixon counsel during the hearings and suppressed files showing that in the committee recently had afforded the right to counsel to Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas. If I was Clinton spinmeister Lanny Davis, I

Kill Devil Hill [Dan Collins]

Well, Barack’s been getting hammered with Wright Brother, so it’s only fitting that Hillary should suffer for a story about her that the MSM have been froward in reporting. Bon appetit! Hillary’s Tuzla story explained: She mistook herself for Christopher Hitchens.
