Saddam and Al Qaeda

It is surprising that this story has gotten no attention. I mean, is the media really this biased? It's one thing if the story is bogus, but if it was you'd expect it to hit the press and then be followed up with some investigative journalism debunking it, wouldn't you?

Update: Slate: Why is the press avoiding the Weekly Standard's intelligence scoop?

Update: Via IP, more from Stephen Hayes on this.

Update: And more, via IP again.

Go Dean!

Woo, go Dean:

Not only do they see him losing badly to Bush, they also see Dean hurting Democratic candidates further down on the ticket - rippling into congressional races, and possibly even boosting Republican control of the 100-seat Senate close to the crucial threshold of 60 seats, which would make it filibuster-proof.

... "We could wind up with two more Antonin Scalias[sic] [on the Supreme Court]," he adds, referring to one of the most conservative justices.

Perish the thought! Scalia is one of the best judges there.

Schwarzenegger as governor

Governor spells out mission to 'save California'

He said he would also summon the legislature back from recess to repeal an unpopular law allowing undocumented immigrants to obtain drivers' licences.

<<sigh of relief>>

Federalism sounds good. We should get some more of that Federalism stuff.

The Bush Report Card

David Ellis over at Wunderkinder offers up a great summary of Bush's performance so far: The Bush Report Card.

In 1984 the Reagan campaign speciously asked voters to judge his first term by the standard: are you better off now than you were 4 years ago. I contend that a more appropriate standard should be how effective a president was in solving the problems that he inherited, and how significent the problems are that he will hand off to the next presidency - whether that be Bush's 2nd term or Dean. As such these were the 14 most important problems that Bush inherited from Clinton in '01, along with an evaluatation of how successful he was at solving them.
