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.

"Tomatoes and Rice in the Kitchen" -- Trina covering Kokesh.

"John Nichols loses a nipple" -- Betinna sees a horrible sight. But readers will laugh.

"Only one will fight for America's children" & "Hillary working for veterans, children and the country" -- Ruth and Kat cover Hillary on children. (Kat also addresses veterans.)

"Lambert the dirty bird" -- Mike's very popular post.

"Community note and Hillary" -- Marcia addressing the same topic the day before.

"The very tired Katrina vanden Heuvel" -- Kat covering KvH.

"Hillary does get endorsements" -- Marcia explaining why Goodman speaks with forked tongue.

"What Sammy Wants, Bambi Gives" & "THIS JUST IN! SAMMY POWER WANTS EVEN MORE WAR!" -- Cedric and Wally sit down with Sammy Power to find out what's what.

Isaiah's The World Today Just Nuts "Merkel-ed" -- Isaiah captures touchy-feely Bambi at his worst.

"Behind the Frankenstein Obama phenomenon" -- a very requested from readers by C.I.

"Will John Nichols accept defeat gracefully?" -- Kat's very funny piece that she says of, "I was channeling Betty."

"Barack Obama lied in the debate" & "obama caught lying again" -- C.I. and Rebecca told you about it in real time. Mike: "And C.I.'s piece was so popular it was later posted elsewhere online and with someone else's name to it. It's called theft."

"How Dems lose in November" -- Elaine explaining a number of things including turning Muslim into a dirty word.

"Obama says Afghanistan can wait" -- Mike on Bambi's missed subcomittee meetings.

"women, we already know barack" -- Rebecca explains why a woman never should trust a smooth talker.

"Obama: The student who doesn't do his work" -- Ruth goes over the debate.


"I Hate The War" -- The most requested piece of the week. And, no doubt, soon to appear at another website, 'borrowed' by a guy who puts his name to it.

Added by Jim, Dona and C.I.: "THIS JUST IN! BAMBI HOLDS A PRESS CONFERENCE!" & "Bambi's 'strategy' goes public" -- we're not going to bother anyone by calling them -- it was a long writing edition. But we'll assume this didn't get noted because Wally and Cedric have been campaigning their asses off in Texas for Hillary and, due to being very tired, they've been very down on their joint-posts last week. We're guessing that Wally and Cedric asked for only one highlight. (They asked not to be noted in Thursday's "Iraq snapshot" and weren't due to that request. They stated they felt they were just phoning it in as the week drew to a close.) We think they did strong work all week and pick these posts that went up Saturday to prove that point.
