The Beard and Barack Obama remind us that Iraq has more damn oil money than they know what to do with (but he's got to be careful about that "not using the 68 million acres" line; try working on the line about Repug obstruction on a windfall profits tax and tax credits on renewable energy investment, OK? Has a nicer ring)...
...oh, and by the way, just to let you know, Russia and Georgia (the country, that is) are at war (or just about - more info here, along with this al jazeera video)...
Update 8/9/08: And one reason why we should care about the conflict noted above is that we have about 1,000 troops in Georgia. Now, back to the John Edwards story...
...so, Rick Davis of the McBush campaign was the top lobbyist for the DHL deal that will cost this lady and 8,200 of her co-workers their jobs, huh?
You wanna try some "straight talk," McBush? Try telling her that you and other senators were paid $185 K by Davis' lobbying firm so she and 8,200 other Ohioans would get thrown out into the street, you feeble old man (h/t Atrios)...
...K.O. brings us today's "Worst Persons" (amazingly, Edwards didn't make the list, but John McBush messes up the charges in the Hamdan conviction - and really, even if he'd been acquitted, he'd still have been held as an "enemy combatant" - Billo sends one of his producers stalking after Dem FLA Congressman Robert Wexler, and Newt forgets echoes of The Sainted Ronnie R in Obama's Berlin speech, and I hope K.O. was joking about Ronnie Baby at the end)...
...oh, and House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Man Tan) said today that "the American people are going to hang Nancy Pelosi" over the Repugs and their energy antics here.
As you can see, Boehner (pronounced "bo-ner") is the same clown who said that our troops have paid "a small price" in Iraq (and Biden's response hits the proverbial bullseye)...
...and here's Stereophonics ("Dakota")
