The Ones that Got Away
- RE comments on the ridiculousness of campaign promises given the financial state of the country. "It's like listening to someone who is going into foreclosure on their house and making plans for a trip to Europe at the same time."
- Big Blue is at it again. Hillary Clinton is the last (but not least) profile in an Obama veepstakes series.
- Doug DeLong explores and reports back from the Hillaryis44, the "Church of Hillary." His verdict: "anyone who would so easily abandon their party just because they're miffed that their candidate lost is not a true Democrat."
- Ingoman calls our attention to journalist Adian Hartley, who has been investigating atrocities of the Ethiopian transitional government and military.

This is a smart blog. I mean it. You have so much knowledge about this issue, and so much passion. You also know how to make people rally behind it, obviously from the responses. Youve got a design here thats not too flashy, but makes a statement as big as what youre saying. Great job,children health indeed.

I do agree with all the ideas you have presented in your post. They’re very convincing and will definitely work. Still, the posts are very short for starters. Could you please extend them a bit from next time? Thanks for the post.healthy families .

Hey guys - does Andrew Golis know that you recommended that Hillary is 44 post?
That you did so does somewhat undermine his chastisement of the TPM community here:

I'm sure he does know. There's a difference between outright bashing and a thought out, well written post like Doug's.

A difference without distinction then. I went back and reread all of Andrew's comments in that thread; I stand by my interpretation of his remarks as a plea to change the subject.
Granted, Doug's post is long and condescending, rather than short and angry, but - as well-written as it is - it does little if anything to move the discussion forward.
Honestly, I don't have any problem with Doug's post (aside from a slight distaste for seeing someone shoot fish in a barrel) or the fact that you chose to promote it. I just found it amusing to see your recommendations juxtaposed with Andrew's complaint that people aren't writing about or recommending anything else.

thanks for the mention, unfortunatly no one seems to care about the economics, more interested in the horse race I guess.
Hey, it's only an additional 22billion a year anyway, no big deal

OK, I lied. Lots of requests for Mark Warner (who was admittedly worth looking at), so here's one more:

religious sect may degenerate into a political faction,' wrote James Madison, but the new American nation would nevertheless be protected against the ungovernable combination of religious fervor and political power as long as the Constitution prohibited the federal government from establishing any particular creed as preeminent.
