Koo-koo-ka-choo, Mr. Richardson. Jesus loves you more than you will know

HAPPY GOOD FRIDAY...(we non-Christians call it Friday)





Richardson Endorses Obama.
He says it's time for Democrats to stop fighting each other (or something).

A cute story from earlier this month.


The Swamp: Bill Richardson's tough call, short of endorsement


Richardson related an anecdote from one of the debates:

He had fielded a question and then, as the next point went to another candidate, leaned toward Obama next to him on the stage and whispered, "'Boy some of these debates are really boring, aren't they?' Or something like that. And he said, 'Oh god, yeah, you're right.' "

As the two were whispering, a question suddenly veered back to Richardson -- who hadn't been paying attention. "I looked at Obama and he says [whispering] 'Katrina. Katrina.' And I go back and say, 'Well, my three-point plan on Katrina is ...'

"Obama could have thrown me under the bus. But he didn't. So I said, 'Thanks, Obama,' and he said, 'Just listen next time.'"

Last time this happened was in 1992. Guess who was the target then.

George (J. Edgar) "W"hoover Bush Buddies Repeat Watergate Maneuvers?




In the New York Times:

State Dept. Punishes Aides for Obama Passport Breach

Statement from Obama campaign:

This is an outrageous breach of security and privacy, even from an Administration that has shown little regard for either over the last eight years. Our government's duty is to protect the private information of the American people, not use it for political purposes. This is a serious matter that merits a complete investigation, and we demand to know who looked at Senator Obama's passport file, for what purpose, and why it took so long for them to reveal this security breach.


More in depth coverage, including quotes from NBC and officials on HuffPo

Are we sure the W doesn't stand for Whoover?

A chap named Jason Linkins over at The Huffington Post put this video up under the title:

BBC report sheds light on Bush "Hoovervilles"



5 out of 6 Fox Talking Heads Agree: We Must Destroy Obama

This was on the Fox.com site 10 minutes ago.
(Along with many anti-Obama stories, at least one of which is an almost verbatim duplication of a WorldNetDaily story. A screen grab from the WorldNetDaily site is after the Faux image...)

And we should not be angry with Hillary for ignoring her committment to boycott Fox-sponsored debates, why?





And below we have some of WorldNetDaily's recent "News" article titles.
(my favorite is the one about some relatively tooth-free fella who says something about doing drugs and having sex with Obama. I mean...Come ON. There is no WAY the guy pictured in the story was EVER even near Obama's league... You just can not GET that high. I'm not posting the pic or even a link here because I don't want to drive any traffic to the site or help this person gain any more fame from this lunacy.)

2008, meet 1928. Are you sure you're not related?
