No Four-door Mustang?

Just what they need to sell with oil running out and the price of gas not going down anytime soon, a 400 horsepower V8 in a 4 passenger sedan.

Stick Bipartisanship Where The Sun Doesn’t Shine

If you haven’t read it, check out Digby’s Campaign Promises.

I received an e-mail from Media Matters on this issue and the distortions circulating in the media.

There is no way the Democratic leadership in Congress can make the Republicans behave themselves and work to get things done. A look at the record of the 109th Congress tells you all you need to know about the desire of the Republicans to do what best for the country.

You can’t pull the partisan crap that the Republican leadership used to get their way and expect anyone, including the voters, to trust them anytime soon.

The Republicans passed the rules that are cutting them out, now that they are in the minority. They were warned when they did it that they wouldn’t like it when they were in the minority, but they did it anyway.

It’s called karma; Republicans need to get used to it. If they don’t understand what that means they can ask the two new Buddhists in the House to explain the concept.

Linton Brooks, National Nuclear Security Administration chief, forced to quit because nuclear weapons secrets are showing up in the trailers of junkies and no one can find hard drives of classified data.
