February 3rd, 2009 · No Comments

In the second paragraph of his Salon.com piece today, writer Glenn Greenwald claims President Barack Obama campaigned on a platform of increased defense spending.

McCain Tosses Airball, Fails to Mention Bill Ayers

October 7th, 2008 · 4 Comments

Search the transcript of tonight’s presidential debate for the word, “Ayers,” and you’ll find it appears four times — but only as the last five letters of another word, “taxpayers.” In what might rank as the greatest surprise and disappointment of the town hall-style event held at Nashville’s Belmont University, Republican John McCain failed to [...]

August 28th, 2008 · No Comments

‘No Description Available’ for Obama on YouTube

August 26th, 2008 · 1 Comment

On YouTube this morning, I found the most-accurate description yet of Barack Obama — and I didn’t even have to watch a video. Searching for a new campaign spot via which the Obama campaign attempts to rebut John McCain’s criticism of Obama’s close ties to admitted domestic terrorist William Ayers, I went to the popular [...]
