Another Republican we ought to be scraping off the soles of our shoes

Someone important once wrote "the truth will out," but I have my doubts.

Still, it's encouraging to see a newpaper editor doing the kind of job he ought to be doing. Seems like Alabama Governor Bob Riley, who by some reports stole his election with the help of Karl Rove, has now been discovered dipping into the corporate pocketbook and not reporting it. It's Riley, and his associates that put his gubenatorial challenger in jail.

Kucinich makes the most sense

Hillary was defensive. Barack peddled softly. And our friend Chris Dodd can't escape learning how to speak in a political household.

But Dennis Kucinich speaks plainly, clearly, truthfully. And the crowd loves it.

Check out this Kuchinich clip at Raw Story.

Leave it to Lieberman

Creepy Joe strikes again.

When Petraeus and Crocker testified before the Senate Armed Services Committee, and his colleagues were trying to wring the truth from some dubious statistics, Creepy Joe Lieberman steppped over the line and asked Petraeus if he should be given the power to take troops into Iran.

Petraeus, who is nothing if not cool and composed, told Lieberman that his concern was Iraq, and that worries over Iran were the problem of Central Command.

Creepy Joe won't be happy until the missles are in the air over Tehran.

On the other side of the scale sits Chris Dodd.
