It’s easy if you try. Not in the tank for anyone; readership sky high. Imagine all the people hearing ALL the facts.

Marvelous: Pelosi/Dems say “Drill Nothing” or we’ll shut down government
September 23, 2008 by Laura · Leave a Comment
The poison pill to end all poison pills - they’ve slipped a “drill nothing” provision into the Continuing Resolution and without its passage, government will have to shut down. Well, “drill nothing” is a slight exaggeration, but it sharply limits drilling and adds permanent bans on quite a lot. That’ll do wonders for the economy. Read more
Federal bailout expands to include student and car loans

This is upsetting - and I suspect the longer they wait to enact something the larger it’s going to get as the panic in the financial sector increases. A friend of mine whose husband was a financial bigwig - he’s been on CNN and on the cover of financial magazines - has been warning me about this for over a year and frankly, I just didn’t believe her. It seems to me that what we lack more than anything is leadership. Read more
Ethan Winner Calls The Waahmbulance!
September 22, 2008 by Laura · 6 Comments
So - why’d the Winners (who should really look into getting a legal name change after this Epic Fail) yank all the damning evidence down and cancel accounts? At The Jawa Report, Ethan Winner admits making the ad, claims he wasn’t paid to do so, that neither Obama nor any PACs were involved, and wraps it up with this cri de coeur:
Following the posting of personal information about me by the Jawa Report, my family began to receive threatening and abusive phone calls and emails.
Do I condone threats? Not in the least. But can we believe someone willing to go to all this trouble to spread lies about Sarah Palin - and the subject of the video had been thoroughly debunked a full week before the video was released - would lie about receiving threats, or exaggerate negative responses into threats? Yes, we can!
Oh, and the “personal” information posted by The Jawa Report was entirely public. I’m guessing some people may have looked up the company’s website and called to complain about the astroturfing and lies. It’s possible some were rabid enough to go further than that - like see if they had a Yahoo account that could be hacked and explored for damning evidence, maybe? - but I doubt it.

The Associated Press Still Reads Michelle Malkin’s Blog
September 18, 2008 by Laura · Leave a Comment
The Associated Press article on Sarah Palin’s email hack pretty much restates this Michelle Malkin post. It’s not the first time they’ve lifted content from her blog. They imply that the info detailing the hack was all over the Net, but that’s not really so - 4chan deleted the posts, as the email MM received explained, and her blog was the first with the story, thanks to her tipster. The AP then smeared Palin, asserting without evidence that Palin used private email to conduct state business. Read more
