Back in the days when I was writing political advertising--in the pre-Internet, pre-War Room era--the single most coveted piece of information we trie...

Once again, the president is passing the buck to the uniformed military to justify continuing a ludicrous imperial adventure, and the good general has dutifully performed.
Bob Cesca | Posted 03.19.2008 | Politics
President Bush and all of his apologists have scapegoated or are preemptively scapegoating the troops and the "commanders on the ground."
Wall Street Journal | DAMIAN PALETTA and JAMES R. HAGERTY | Posted 12.19.2007 | Business
Concerns about the U.S. mortgage crisis and turmoil in global credit markets intensified, with U.S. policy makers seeking to clamp down on the practic...

A community brain injury is the only way I can fathom why they sent an email asking their group to thank Hillary for taking the energy and climate crises seriously.

Republican heaven is a special place, even more than normal heaven. Imagine a world with no homosexuals and where Americans can stay forever fighting in Iraq.
John Ridley | Posted 10.02.2007 | Politics
The good news is the Congress now has practice in fending our men and women in uniform from snark just in time to defend fake soldiers from being called phony soldiers by the likes of Rush Limbaugh.
Darin Murphy | Posted 09.28.2007 | Politics
Sure, MoveOn may be right, but politicians like to think they reserve the right to say it themselves.
John Bruhns | Posted 09.27.2007 | Politics
Up until now the swiftboating of heroic combat veterans was all fair game for Bush, his cronies in Congress, and his minuscule portion of left-over supporters.
Jeffrey Feldman | Posted 09.26.2007 | Politics
Without a strong and comprehensive no jibber-jabber measure, the mouthy American public might just push the whole system over the cliff.
Lane Hudson | Posted 09.26.2007 | Politics
By an embarrassingly significant margin, the House favors condemning the Constitutional right of free speech over providing health care to children.
John Ridley | Posted 09.25.2007 | Media
A misplaced punctuation mark or an inaccurately reported date is far different than a culture where sexed up reporting by media stars and high bias has become the norm.
Peter Smith | Posted 09.25.2007 | Politics
There are only crocodile tears over Franken calling the bipartisan-yet-ridiculous vote on MoveOn's ad "ridiculous."
Wall Street Journal | Posted 09.25.2007 | Media
Two bastions of liberalism are discovering the nasty side of campaign finance reform now that it has landed in their own backyards. On Sunday, a spok...

He attacked MoveOn.org and the New York Times for the rate charged for a newspaper ad. Promptly, he ran an ad in response and paid... wait for it... the SAME amount.
Editor & Publisher | Joe Strupp | Posted 09.24.2007 | Media
Clark Hoyt, public editor of The New York Times, took issue Sunday with the paper's recent decision to run a discounted ad from Moveon.org criticizing...

These Republicans weren't even upset enough to return habeas corpus to the rule of law, or give soldiers at war a rest. That is one annoying sucker of an advertisement.
Naomi Wolf | Posted 09.24.2007 | Politics
I didn't like the wording of the ad either. But the attack by the Senate last week is not an aberration but is part of an accelerating trend of echoes from the past.
Jane Hamsher | Posted 09.24.2007 | Politics
You can grovel and beg and all it will earn you is the opportunity to do more groveling and begging, and it doesn't make you look either strong or qualified for leadership.
The New York Times' The Caucus Blog | Kate Phillips | Posted 09.23.2007 | Media
On the issue of an issue that just hasn't moved on, the liberal activist group MoveOn.org announced this afternoon that, in light of today's column by...
Tom Gregory | Posted 09.21.2007 | Politics
Dr. Strangelove, like others that followed, helped the world avoid nuclear annihilation. Kubrick was exercising his first amendment right in 1964, exactly as MoveOn did last week.
Gov. Bill Richardson | Posted 09.21.2007 | Politics
Every day Congress fails to end this war is another day Congress fails to do what we elected them to do. Americans have lost patience with the leaders they elected.
Joe Scarborough | Posted 09.21.2007 | Politics
This week's dust-up reminded me of that time when we Republicans led with our hearts and got pounded in our faces. We loved bathing in self-righteous indignation. Our base loved it too.
Ian Gurvitz | Posted 09.21.2007 | Politics
Still giddy from his blood-surging rush of righteous indignation over the Betray Us scandal, the president has issued a new list of executive proclamations.
