Diresome Coupling...

Rush Limbaugh (3 to 5 divorces and all) is apparently dating CNN Anchorperson Daryn Kagan.

And not a peep is heard out there with respect to conflict of interest.
however, trust me, if Katie Couric started knockin' boots with Ed Schultz by Ghod the media shistorm wouldnt't stop blowing til' Perdition.

Ah Autumn

when the indictments fall upon the land like acorns in Menotomy...

Romney wallows in approach-avoidance syndrome...

apparently according to the Globe's Metro page, Mitt is putting off an annoucement with respect to his political plans til' November.
Allegedly this is because he wants to get his health care bill through the Lege...but in fact his polls are down hus leadership is wasted and only Scot Lehigh seems to return his calls.
Given all that, he has to make the exit look good somehow...and like a fool he has glommed onto this trivial and fraudulent health coverage bill as the means to do so.
Frankly I think the boys on Beacon Hill will give the legislation all due props and blithely vote it down when the time comes.
Why vote for a bad bill now when they can bide a while until Reilly, Patrick, Galvin or Kennedy is governing and then write a good bill?

Interesting Post on Americablog

apparently Richard Viguerie and some of the other wingnut grass-eaters aren't happy with the Miers nomination.

Hey...it occurs to humble Elias that if Senators Kerry and Kennedy wanted to lob a 50lb shitbomb into the enemy camp they ought to call a live press conference and assert that "Ms. Miers seems like a sensible person"...
Nothing more.
And make sure their old colleague George McGovern is invited to sit on the podium as well.

That'd be enough to send every rightical chic mullah in America out into the street screaming for blood, dynamite and a fatwah on Ms. Miers.

Toadies in defense of Sycophants...

in today's Boston Globe Senator Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) has this to say about Harriet Miers nomination to the Supreme Court:
"A lot of my fellow conservatives are concerned, but they don't know her as I do...She's going to basically do what the president thinks she should, and that is be a strict constructionist."

And this from the Senate's most embarrassing and nauseating Bush worshipper...so much for the strict constructionalist view of the separation of powers.
"She is going to do what the President thinks she should"...I mean screw the letter and intent of the law!
I guess George felt that brother Jeb would need someone on the inside when it becomes his turn to seize power....thats my theory on why the President would nominate the legal equivalent of a charwoman to Highest Court in the Land.

The nice thing about the Miers nomination is that it will revive the debate about Bush's dependence on courtiers and flatterers to function as President. And are these servile trucklers covertly or overtly manipulating him?

Puppet or Puppeteer? The debate rages on!

Humble Elias has a whacking great

cold, so he isn't much for blogging at the moment. However the Blue Mass Group is all over the Miers Nomination to the Extreme Court. Check it out...

The Only Problem with...

this bit of news is that the crooked son of a bitch can't run for re-election...and thus go down in a holocaust of fire and destruction before the democrats.
