From the LA Times Top of the Ticket, “Obama tells NY Times he’d do better without Fox News around”: The New York Times, of all places, has a long interview coming out Sunday with the freshman senator from Illinois, Barack Obama. In it, the Democratic presidential nominee, who’s leading in most recent political polls, still bemoans the existence of Fox News because he feels he’d be doing even better in

It took them 40 years, a new strategy of insinuating themselves into the existing power structure, and the perfect storm of GOP excess and a polished, true-believer front man of the right hue and temperament to play to Americans’ desires for novelty and “change,” but the New Left — a group who once openly despised bourgeois “liberals” but who now claims to represent them (erroneously, of course: there is nothing

And still no notification that my account has been suspended. As I noted before, this was no small account: I’d cut, titled, and uploaded 49 videos, all of which I wrote the descriptions for. I set up a youtube channel, including a personalized logo and custom color scheme. The channel had, in 6 months, garnered close to 400 subscribers and had received very positive feedback from grapplers and those interested

No word yet from API, but having pored over a few YouTube videos myself, I have established that there tends to be a great deal of pixelation and motion blur in the videos in which she appears — and that her strange, possibly alien chemical makeup affects even those around her, leaving them appearing likewise halting, pixelated, and out of focus, their voices often low and muffled (particularly in instances

From API, who was the recipient, they claim, of an angry phone call from Michelle Obama with respect to African-Press International’s less than hagiographic treatment of The One: When API told [Michelle Obama] that our online news media was only relaying what the American Bloggers and other media outlets had discovered through their investigations, Mrs Obama was angered and she came out loud with the following: “African press International is

Glenn Reynolds doesn’t think so — though he does think the race is much closer than we’re being led to believe — whereas US News’ James Pethokoukis isn’t so sure: Barack Obama actually told that Joe the Plumber guy that he wants to “spread the wealth around.” What, did Obama just get done reading the Wikipedia entry on Huey “Share the Wealth” Long or something? Was he somehow channeling that

Uppity snowbilly breeder. What, did they cancel “former beauty queen night” at the doublewide grotto? I mean, why aren’t you off tending to that head of cabbage you refused to abort? BAD HOCKEY MOM! From the WaPo’s The Trail: Speaking before a crowd of a few thousand supporters in an airport hangar, GOP vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin continued to question Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama’s patriotism and commitment to fair

Still early, but I figured I’d get out in front of this thing, so I spent the morning having my pens and pencils registered with the local writers’ unions. Interestingly, they all look the same after having paid their dues and purchased their obligatory buttons. But when we got back home, one of my mechanical pencils stopped writing midway through a sentence and demanded a 15-minute break and a separate

From the AP: The FBI is investigating whether the community activist group ACORN helped foster voter registration fraud around the nation before the presidential election. A senior law enforcement official confirmed the investigation to The Associated Press on Thursday. A second senior law enforcement official says the FBI was looking at results of recent raids on ACORN offices in several states for any evidence of a coordinated national scam. Both

Via Byron York, here’s Markos instructing the troops: I’ve been making the case the last couple of weeks that we can’t just focus on winning in November, but that we have an imperative to take advantage of a historic opportunity to break the conservative movement’s backs and crush their spirits. In the White House, that means getting Obama a broad popular and geographic mandate for change. In the House, that
