Highlights

This piece written by Wally, Rebecca, Cedric, Elaine, Betty and Mike and all selections picked by us unless otherwise noted.



"Ruth's Report" -- Ruth reviews independent media (at the request of community members) and finds it lacking in presentation and scope.



"Kat's Korner: Summertime Hammond" -- Kat likes this album. She doesn't care for the lyrics but that's the only weak spot and she recommends as the summer CD.



"KPFA, you're getting on my last nerve" -- Kat explains why KPFA is ticking her (and others) off.



"Truly, what a mess" -- Betty's latest chapter where she notes the media and zooms in on Betinna's cross-dressing, xenophobic, fat ass husband.



"Red skin potato salad in the Kitchen" -- Trina weighs in on food and Kucinich. And the core six (Jim, Dona, Ty, Jess, Ava and C.I.) and Kat made the recipe and report it really is easy.



"Liam Madden, Law & Disorder, Joel Kovel" -- Mike gives the run down on Law and Disorder and notes guests and attending the Liam Madden press conference.



"Obama and Clinton get their clocks cleaned" & "THIS JUST IN! BULLY BOY TALKING POINTS NOT GOING TO FLY IN 2008!" -- two front runners stumble. Wally and Cedric attempt to figure out if it's time to send them to the glue factory or if they can still race?



"Adam Kokesh, Isaiah" -- our favorite post by Elaine last week. We like Isaiah's work as well but it's so hard to post now that Hello is out and Flickr is in.



"Isaiah's The World Today Just Nuts "Bully Boy's Immigration Plan" -- And we would've forgotten Isaiah if Elaine hadn't made him part of her post. (We're really tired when we're doing these highlights and just trying to hurry through.)





"Iraq snapshot" and "Iraq snapshot" -- Ty passed on Lynda's request that both Thursday and Friday's snapshots get noted for "their amazing work."



"And the war drags on . . ." -- and our pick for the best entry by C.I. last week which runs down the do-nothing politician running for president.



"Shameless" & "THIS JUST IN! BARACK SCARES UP VOTERS!" -- after failing miserable in the debates, Barack Obama gets a new theme: Vote For Me, Whitey, Because Those African-Americans Are On The Verge Of Rising Up and Only I Can Keep Them Down.
