News of the Day

Geraldine Ferraro sticks by her guns - Barack Obama is nothing without his pigmentation. I think she may be the source of this transcript - or maybe just the questions. For the record, I don’t think Ferraro is a racist - but this is a stupid remark worthy of much scorn. But not every mention of race, even in stupid and backhanded ways, is racist.

And, because I can’t find a way not to mention it, I’ll mention Eliot Spitzer now. If you were told that one man leaked confidential information, one man refused to obey a subpoena to testify, and one man paid a woman to give him pleasure - which one would you think would be looking at jail time? Well, according to Scooter Libby and Josh Bolton, it isn’t the first two. Call it Bush league justice.

House Democrats are growing a pair and may even know how to use them. We can only hope.
