Some other stuff I should have blogged

Al Giordano takes a look at the veepstakes, reminding us of that ol' Kerry-Gephardt ticket.
BarbinMD nails McCain about Landstuhl.

Update: I spoke too soon -- while I stand by everything that I wrote about the story I link to here, Shear and Balz's article on the front page of the WaPo is incredibly strong. Original post: Meanwhile, Shear and Balz of the WaPo (I've always wanted to say that) document in painstaking detail the many ways in which McCain's attack is false, but no matter how well-researched their article was, I'm still not happy with it. Why? Because it takes them until the fourth paragraph to say that it's not true. The news here is that McCain is making a false attack -- it's okay to say it's false right up top. You don't need to tiptoe around it.
Similarly, Katie Couric catches McCain campaign manager Rick Davis right in the middle of a monster flip-flop, completely backtracking on McCain previous commitment to not hire lobbyists. Unfortunately, Couric seems not to have no clue what she just witnessed. This probably is more an issue of ignorance than bias, but that doesn't make it any less forgivable.
I'd forgotten that Angelina Jolie's father was an absolute right-wing lunatic. Sometime when you're bored, take a look at a picture of the both of them...the similiarities are...eerie.
