Highlights

This piece is written by Rebecca of Sex and Politics and Screeds and Attitude, Cedric of Cedric's Big Mix, Kat of Kat's Korner, Betty of Thomas Friedman is a Great Man, Mike of Mikey Likes It!, Elaine of Like Maria Said Paz and Wally of The Daily Jot. Unless otherwise noted, we picked all highlights.

"Corn Chowder in the Kitchen" -- This one was a shocker to Mike's dad. (Mike's dad is married to Mike's mother who is, of course, Trina, the author of this post.) Be sure to read it.

"Cathy Pollitt explains the memo" -- Betinna's off in search of answers and Cathy Pollitt is the venue.

"I Hate The War"-- Second most requested highlight by readers of this site. Very powerful and very praiseworthy.

"Jackson Browne is not a folk singer" -- Ruth has to explain it to Amy Goodman. While it's good that Ruth's able to, it's a damn shame Goody can't grasp reality on her own.

"joe conason, hillary" -- Rebecca discussing who gets shut out and why.

"shuster" -- Rebecca discussing one of the most under-reported stories of last week.

"Been caught stealin" -- Kat points out that Bambi's new 'plan' is actually Hillary's plan . . . from months ago. Should Bambi get into the White House, who would he chase after in his continued efforts at Follow the Leader?


"Bambi advertises in Texas" & "THIS JUST IN! BAMBI'S BAD AD BUY" -- Cedric and Wally break down the ad buy in Texas by Obama.

"the disappointing dave lindorff" -- If someone, in the fall of 2007, is calling for people to quit the Democratic Party, starting an organized online effort, forgive us if we don't rush to embrace his endorsement of a Democratic presidential candidate. Maybe Lindorff just had a word count to fill?

"Idiot of the Week (and runner up)" -- Mike continues to offer up the idiot of the week and one person keeps hogging all the trophies.

"Joe Wilson will not be heard on your radio" -- Ruth, who catches more radio programs than is humanly possible, explains who gets dropped and why.


"Amy Goodman needs a tutor" -- an understatement from Marcia.

"The closet" -- Elaine explains who's in, who's out and why.

"Bambi, Krugman and more" -- Mike breaks down Third's last edition and offers commentary regarding the Hillary Haters.

"Bambi & Big Tony: Closer than we knew" & "THIS JUST IN! BAMBI'S MULTIPLE VISITS WITH REZKO!" -- Cedric and Wally on the ties that bind . . . Obama to Rezko.

"And the war drags on . . ." -- the most requested highlight in e-mails to this site. Read and grasp why.
