ANOTHER BROKEN PROMISE

Maybe they're working dogs.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

THAT CARTER FEELING

I think a Carter-era rerun is a best-case scenario at this point . . . .

THOUGHTS FROM THE LATER REPUBLIC

Victor Davis Hanson:

We are witnessing nothing less than an attempt to reinvent the United States at home and abroad into something it never was.

Read it all.

LISTENING TO HARRY REID

I'm listening to Senator Reid introduce the Democrat's health care bill.

Judging from his stuttering, stumbling, and evasive looking everywhere except at the camera, Reid doesn't believe a word he's saying.

JUSTICE CHICAGO-STYLE

In one of a series of TV interviews during his trip to Asia, [President Barack] Obama said those offended by the legal privileges given to [Khalid Shcikh] Mohammed by virtue of getting a civilian trial rather than a military tribunal won't find it "offensive at all when he's convicted and when the death penalty is applied to him."

Er, isn’t there this weird “presumption of innocence” concept in American jurisprudence?

Obama reminds me of the old 50’s westerns I used to watch as a kid. The sheriff rides up to the vigilante mob about to hang the rustler from the nearest tree and says “No, no. We’ll take him back to town, give him a fair trial, then hang him.”

And Bush was supposed to be the cowboy President.
