John Kerry emerges from his newly renovated sub-orbital spacecraft.

 
Apparently Kerry’s 2004 campaign owes some money:
John Kerry spent $1.4 million more than federal rules allowed during his 2004 presidential bid, primarily on customizing two campaign planes, according to a draft audit by the Federal Election Commission.

Unos ejemplos de la nueva programación de TVES, reemplazante de RCTV.

Hugo Chavez is nutty. [editor: insert the “if it wasn’t so sad it would be funny” cliche here]
The “Information Minister” has announced that Venezuela will sue CNN because the news network linked Chavez to al-Qaeda. CNN responded by saying that “unrelated news stories can be juxtaposed in a given program segment just as […]

FADING FINISH: ‘IDOL’ RATINGS DROP 8% IN WEEK… 14.7 RATING/23 SHARE FOR FOX SHOW, DOWN FROM LAST TUESDAY’S 15.5/25… SHOW HAS LOST RATINGS FROM WEEK-TO-WEEK FOR LAST 3 OUTINGS…
No surprise here. People stopped watching when Sanjaya got voted off.

Mike Huckabee talking about spending restraint saying that we should not be spending money “like John Edwards in a beauty shop.”

Michael Moore challenged Fred Thompson to a debate.
