Ann Althouse pulls a Larry Johnson (or, as one of her commenters calls it, a Michelle Malkin) on Chris Matthews:

With complete clarity, he says the famous 4-letter c-word.

Except that, if you watch the video, he totally fucking doesn’t.

Advance work for the Michelle Obama non-video? Chris Matthews has a lot of errors to answer for. This is not one of them.

They Called It The “Great” Depression For A Reason!

By Jesse Taylor

Broke-ass old age: the wave of the future. Another report on the Social Security Web site tells us that the average Social Security benefit for a retired worker is now $1,082.30 a month. That’s before the Medicare part B premium of $96.40. The solution here isn’t more money or another government program. The solution is social.

Cranky Wants Your Vote

By Jesse Taylor

After having (mostly) navigated through the sociopolitical minefield that was Obama vs. Clinton in terms of race and sex, we now get another area to broach: John McCain is old. The weird thing about McCain is that he seems much older than he actually is. Seventy-two, while certainly elderly, still…

 

Hilary Rosen: Clinton missed her chance to ‘pass the torch and cement her grace’

By pams

That says a lot coming from Hilary Rosen, one of the power brokers in DC and the LGBT community, who was all over the airwaves as a tireless, staunch supporter of Hillary Clinton. Rosen’s column on Huff Post (where she is the new political editor) is a very strong signal…

 

Republicans say: Thanks for doing our work for us!

By Amanda Marcotte

Update: Remember that campaigns are usually very responsive to direct communications. You can contact the campaign here and let them know that Clinton’s prior statements undermining Obama’s experience and skills make her a poor choice for a VP pick. It will only take a moment of your time. Hat tip.…
