Thanks?

Sure. Thanks.

Matt Stoller makes encouraging note of the latest in a string of impressively progressive accomplishments and postions of the junior Senator from the Upper Left...
Maria Cantwell was very much with us on the vote and the underlying bill. Now she's making net neutrality a campaign issue against her opponent, Mike McGavick.
But Matt? Can we just stop this?
Cantwell is not liked among progressives for a variety of reasons…
In fact, while I count myself among those of a 'progressive' (Ill settle for liberal, myself) bent who disagree with Maria on one or more counts, I actually like her quite a bit, and support her re-election enthusiastically. That's a far more typical position, I suspect, than that of the purist minority who are supporting some McGavick surrogate (yep, that nasty binary nature of American politics again. Even those who pledge fealty in November are more than willing to damage Maria now.) Stop piling on. The really important part of that sentence could have just as well stood on its own, even without my emphasis…
she was absolutely with us on this vote. Not only did she vote for net neutrality, she voted against the underlying bill. In other words, having Democrats in the Senate really matters.
But really, thanks. And thanks for this, too...
Kerry in particular has taken this on and become a bulldog, which was quite unexpected.
Of course, it's just what I'd expect.

The lovely and talented…

…Miss Audrey Hepcat notes that the Brilliant and Beautiful Bride of Upper Left's flower beds are in much better shape than my lawn. Off to weed and mow…

Marching orders…

...from the Galactic Council of the blogosphere for the closing hours of Q2. I couldn't agree more. Does that make me a tool? Fine, I'm a tool. Just follow the 'leader'...
...$5 or $10 by its lonesome self means little. But in a people-powered movement, those small donations add up and they do so quickly.

And once a candidate can show broad support, he or she can do two things: 1) prove to the big money donors, labor unions, and PACs that the candidacy is viable and worthy of higher level support, and 2) build a list for future activism and fundraising. Richard Morrison in 2004 took the $80K we raised for him directly and turned that in $480K by the end of the campaign.

Yeah, that means if you donate that they'll hit you up for money again. But here's the beauty of people-power -- would you rather they be working their butts off to inspire you into giving more money, or would you rather they be talking to corporate donors to get them to open up?

We have a big money political system. It may not be ideal, but we're stuck with it for the time being. So the questions becomes, who do you want the candidates and politicians to become responsive to? There are two options -- corporate interests or people. That $5 contribution goes a long way to helping politicians shake off the corrosive and undue influence of corporate interests.

So at least one candidate, even if it's just $5. Not everyone can give a lot of money, not everyone can donate time. But everyone can give $5.

That contribution will never have as much impact to a campaign than today.

The Upper Left Act Blue page is conveniently located right here. Live large, spread around a twenty.

In plain English...

LT. CMDR. CHARLES SWIFT, SALIM AHMED HAMDAN‘S LAWYER: At stake was the rule of law. The president had staked out a position that was contrary both to international law and to our domestic statutes in the Uniform Code of Military Justice. What the court did was say that even the president has to follow the law. And that if we‘re going to try people, we‘re going to do it under the law, not under an ad hoc system.

Exactly.

No wonder this guy won.

Win valuable prizes!

And strike a blow for a Democratic Senate. Josh Marshall...
So here's the deal. We're holding a contest to see who can get a straight answer out of Mike McGavick on Social Security -- against phase out or in favor of it. To the winner goes a special TPM 'Privatize This' t-shirt, a TPM mug and…and a special place in our new TPM Hall of Social Security Heroes…
Be a shame if this doesn't go to some upper leftian...

A quick hurrah…

…as the Supreme Court strikes a blow for "justice for all…"
The Supreme Court today delivered a stunning rebuke to the Bush administration over its plans to try Guantanamo detainees before military commissions, ruling that the commissions are unconstitutional.

In a 5-3 decision, the court said the trials were not authorized under U.S. law or the Geneva Conventions. Justice John Paul Stevens wrote the opinion in the case, called Hamdan v. Rumsfeld. Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. recused himself from the case.
The inclusion of the Geneva Conventions, affirming the status of treaties as a part of US law, seems to have some broad and encouraging implications for the possibility of the Court assuming its proper role in reigning in an Executive gone wild.

The men don't know…

…but the little kids understand, sez the Senior Senator from the Upper Left.
"This is about taking responsibility when you mess up. That's something even little kids understand."
As the recipient of a letter from the VA warning me that my own records may have been among those compromised by the institutional neglect and incompetence of yet another branch of Bushco, I applaud Senator Patty Murray's leadership on finding a fast and fair way to provide a measure of protection to all who've been affected.

Clearly, the administration hasn't found such a plan yet, as weeks go by since the belated disclosure of the data losses at the VA. Steve Benen sums up the problems with their approach so far...
It was bad enough Bush's VA was so careless with the information. It was worse when the administration hasn't quite sure what it had lost, even a month later.

But this response on veterans' behalf is truly amazing. The Bush administration is willing to pay for a year of free credit monitoring, but to pay for it, officials wanted to take money from accounts that pay for veterans' health care. When Dems shamed them into backing down, the Bush gang said it'd instead pay for the monitoring by taking money from job training, student loans, and a farmers' assistance program.
Seems to me that the sacrifice of a few of the pork barrel earmarks that have been such a linchpin to the entire Republican culture of corruption might provide more than enough money, without putting a kid out of school or a family off the farm.

And where'd this sudden Republican enthusiasm for pay-go come from?

Keep up the fight, Patty, and thanks.

Ya think?

Steve Soto...
Yes, the Democrats are inept at making the case why they need to be returned to power in Congress. But will they back their way into control this fall simply because they are not rubber-stamping Republicans? A new Pew poll out yesterday indicates that this is possible.
Steve apparently thinks that Democrats are 'backing in' because so much of their support is coming from voters who're fed up with the Preznit...
…Nearly two-thirds (64%) of those who plan to vote for the Democratic candidate in their district think of their vote this fall as a vote against George W. Bush. These anti-Bush voters are significantly more motivated to vote - 52% say they are more eager to vote this year than usual, compared with 39% among those who say Bush is not a factor in their vote.
..but couldn't be taken as a signal of the Congressional Democrats success in driving home key points in their campaign for a new majority? Democrats have argued that the Republican Congress is a rubber stamp for the administration, and that arguement seems to have taken hold. It seems to me that translating antipathy for Bush into support for Democratic candidates is a major step in the process of nationalizing the mid-term election, a step seen by many as critical to Democratic success.

It's time to take of the hair shirt. Somehow or another, the Congressional Democrats are having real success in convincing America that, dare I say it, we can do better.

Together, even.

As amended…





Attaturk has more quotes re-misrembered.

Hat tip to Mr. Natural.

More Darcy love…

…from the DNC blog (did you know she's a rocker?).
...Darcy Burner is turning heads and picking up major steam. A week ago EMILY'S List endorsed her. Her Rubberstamp Republican opponent has been lagging behind so badly he needed President Bush to make an emergency visit to help him fundraise before the end of the quarter. Darcy Burner is the real deal, she's on her way to Congress and Washington is lucky to have her.
And, of course, another obligatory ActBlue link.

I'm gratified, I suppose…

…that there's still a sufficient minority in the United States Senate to prevent the dismemberment of the Bill of Rights that they are all sworn to protect and defend. I'm gravely disappointed that that minority doesn't include the 14 Democratic Senators who lacked either the courage to uphold their oaths or the discernment to see exactly how damaging their vote on the flag desecration amendment would be.

My disappointment is barely lifted by the knowledge that only three Republicans seem to understand that the minute "Congress shall make no law…" becomes "Congress shall make only the laws it wishes…" we are lost. The time of civil liberties as an American birthright will have passed.

I am proud, of course, that our Senators from the Upper Left, Maria Cantwell and Patty Murray, stood with the Constitution and for the protection of our rights.

And for all y'all that think everything that Kerry fella does is about Presidential politics, the Hotline notes that "...Kerry eschewed an Iowa visit in order to stay in Washington to vote against the flag-burning amendment."

Where we needed him, when we needed him. Again.

Hey, don't take my word for it.

It's in The Hill (via Darryl)...
If Democrats are going to win control of the House, candidates like Darcy Burner must unseat Republican incumbents like freshman Rep. Dave Reichert (Wash.).
…and at MyDD
Darcy Burner, whose campaign has been propelled nearly into top tier status almost entirely by the amazing netroots scene in the Northwest. Facing a Republican freshmen in a district that is trending blue, we can't win a real majority in Congress unless our movement candidate in the northwest can bring this one home.
This is the race all the buzz is about. This is one we've got to win.

The Q2 deadline is just around the corner. You can help Darcy keep the momentum of the high mark in she set in Q1, outpacing Brand W Dave. Dave's buddy Bush raised him a bunch of bucks this month, though, and it'll take all we can do to prove to George Bush that he can't buy WA-8.

Contribute to Darcy at the Upper Left ActBlue page (and to any or all of the other fine candidates and committees you'll find there, if you're inclined).

Just wondering...

If the DC Court of Appeals had ruled against Jim McDermott instead of for him, do you think the PI would have buried the story on page B-4 of the print edition?

Missed the paper Times yesterday. What did they do with the story?

Tuesday, June 27, 2006

Truth.

Glenn Greenwald looks at Bushco's latest round of "Look! Shiny thing!"...
Claims that The New York Times (and other newspapers which published stories about this program) disclosed information about banking surveillance which could help terrorists are factually false. Nobody can identify a single sentence in any of these stories which disclosed meaningful information that terrorists would not have previously known or which they could use to evade detection. To the extent that it is (ludicrously) asserted that the more they are reminded of such surveillance, the more they will remember it, nobody has spoken more openly and publicly about the Government's anti-terrorism surveillance programs than a campaigning George Bush.
The Times hasn't disclosed anything new, and the response isn't new either. It's just more of the same old politics of fear, hate and lies. That's all they have left. That's why…

Sure, it's a ways off…

…and there's an important election in between, but a lot of us are thinking about '08 and some of us are closer to decisions than others. Ezra makes a good point...
As the primaries heat up and allegiances cement, the blogs really will be ripped apart by warring partisans, all the more so if folks refuse to divulge, but nevertheless exhibit, their preferences. My guess is that, going forward, transparency is the best policy, and we'd all be well-served by a willingness to calmly accept (and even respond to) speculation about the thought processes driving our commentary.
…and follows it up with his own '08 rankings. I'll bite. Using his list of potential candidates, here's how things look from the Upper Left, as of now...
Favorable:

1) John Kerry (surprised?)
2) Russ Feingold *
3) Wesley Clark *

Neutral:

4) John Edwards
5) Tom Daschle

Leaning Negative:

6) Hillary Clinton
7) Al Gore
8) Bill Richardson
9) Joe Biden
10) Tom Vilsack
11) Mark Warner
12) Evan Bayh
13) Chris Dodd

(* - I like these guys well enough, but I just can't bring myself to believe. Still, if they're around for the primary election debate season, they'll elevate the discourse and have a potentially salutary effect on the Party message.)
This far out, everything's subject to change, and I'm not endorsing anyone at this point, but if Kerry runs, someone's going to have to be pretty damn appealing to get me to turn my head.

I don't care what you think…

…about Jim McDermott (actually, I do care. Quite a bit, in fact. But that's another topic for another time), if you have any concern for the 1st Amendment or for what's left of whistle blower protections at what passes for a 'Justice' department these days, this is good news...
A federal appeals court has agreed to hear new arguments in a case involving an illegally taped telephone call leaked to reporters by Rep. Jim McDermott, D-Wash.

In an announcement late Monday, the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia said all nine judges will hear McDermott’s appeal of the taped call case, which dates back nearly a decade. Arguments will be heard in September, the court said.

A three-judge panel of the appeals court ruled in March that McDermott violated federal law by turning over the tape recording of a 1996 call involving then-House Speaker Newt Gingrich, R-Ga.
Goldy gets right to the potential loss for all of us should McDermott lose this one…
Wanna put me out of business? Slip me an illegally obtained legal document and then sue away. Imagine the chilling effect if journalists, bloggers and private citizens risked financial ruin for passing on information of vital public interest.
Jim McDermott could have settled away his, and our, 1st Amendment rights for a pittance years ago. Instead, he's put himself at real financial risk and suffered a decade long roller coaster ride through the courts. He has been, quite literally, our hero in this entire matter, from his original disclosure of the unethical conduct of Republican leaders like Newt Gingrich and John Boehner through the entire costly, tedious distraction of Boehner's continued assault on the Bill of Rights via the civil courts.

You can find Jim on the Upper Left Act Blue page. Toss him a celebratory buck or two if you can.

Something to look at…

…while I wipe the coffee off my screen.



The General, of course.

If you were away for the weekend…

…you may have missed the brouhaha that erupted between Kos and Jason Zengerle, which ballooned somehow into a discussion of whether The New Republic is simply a hotbed of neo-cons or has devolved into actual fascism. Something like that.

At any rate, while it was hard to sift the evidence from the ad hominem from the evidence, there was just such an effort in some quarters. If you're looking to catch up, the work of Ron Chusid over at the Democratic Daily demonstrates enough skepticism about both sides of the debate to provide an even keel.

In fact, as disappointing as TNR can be on many issues, attacking the magazine doesn't address real questions that were posed by, but hardly originated, by Zengerle's original post.

One of them, whether there's some kind of political payola arrangement between Kos and Jerome, was answered in definite terms last night by Jerome himself at MyDD...
Update [2006-6-25 8:44:56 by Jerome Armstrong]: Let me just state for the record that any payola allegations, of some quid pro quo scam involving Markos and I, are complete fabrications...
I accept that at face value. I never believed it in the first place. Neil the Ethical Werewolf, though, warns that Kos may just be getting played rather than paid...
I'm not saying that Kos is getting paid off by the Warner campaign. (Though since Jerome has been on the getting end of these payments in the past, I wouldn't be surprised if he's interested in being on the giving side.) There's a simpler explanation. Maybe Kos is just another gullible Bluepoint investor who trusts and admires Jerome, and is buying an internet stock for a lot more than it's worth, on Jerome's recommendation. We ought to be suspicious of pro-Warner comments Kos makes in the future. You don't just have to beware the guy who's willing to mislead you for financial gain -- you have to beware the guy who listens to him.
Of course, we all should be suspicious, or skeptical, at least, of most anything we read on the internets. In fact, one of the things that surprised a lot of folks, but shouldn't have, is that there's some measure of back channel communication and cooperation between major bloggers and other politicos, and that that communication is intended to, and does, to various degrees, affect the agenda of the lefty blogosphere.

It's hardly surprising that in any human endeavor involving large numbers, there will be cliques and factions. Some will be more influential than others. In truth, any back channel effort to suppress anything these days is a fool's errand. One thing the development on the current on-line environment has produced is a relative certainty that the story, without particular regard to it's merit, will get out.

Of course, the whole notion of a blogger cabal directing everything from on high, the electronic Illuminati, if you will, is deserving of mockery. Whatever powers may be can plot and scheme and strategize to their heart's delight. I can still wake up and write about anything I damn well please, and so can you. That's the beauty of what we do, and what folks who don't get what we do don't get.

So another question, whether Kos was trying to kill a story to help a friend, becomes irrelevant in the face of the cold fact that Kos can't kill a story.

Of course, speculation about Jerome's influence on Kos will continue until Kos comes up with a better answer to "Why Warner?" that "He's terrific, you'll see." The reporting of Jerome's troubles with the SEC raises questions mostly relevant only to those who pay for his advice. Bloggers will continue to gather both offline and on and talk about what we should be talking about, and it will continue to matter very little to most of us.

There were fair questions raised by Zengerle. There seem to be reasonable answers to most of them, too. Maybe in the future we can skip the whole Rovian sideshow of attack, obfuscation and redirecting the question (thankfully, it seems to have stopped just shy of violating Godwin's Law this time around) and go straight to the answers.

Do not pass go…

…just head straight to Crooks And Liars and collect your own copy of Bruce Springsteen's performance of the anti-war chestnut "Bring 'Em Home." I have fond memories of Barbara Dane's version during Vietnam days, but Bruce, well, just go see...

And now...

Another blogging conspiracy?

I've been thinking that the silliest part of the Kos v. TNR dustup is the notion that there are a bunch of lefty bloggers just waiting for marching orders from Markos. Actually, if you pick your spots and do it right, Kos bashing can be a real traffic builder. It's not the viewer goldmine that Dean bashing was back in the glory days, but there's always been a regular chant of "You're not the boss of me" directed at Kos and, well, anyone who shows the slightest glimmer of asserting leadership in the blogosphere (even when they're as determinably self-effacing as Kos in the attempt).

I was thinking that, until I noticed the behavior of some upper lefty bloggers in relation to our home-grown uber-blogger. For instance, just last night Goldy asked Darryl from Hominid Views to come on the radio with him, and Darryl dutifully followed the leader onto the air. Once in the KIRO studio, Goldy told people to call in and talk to him, and sure enough, there was Will from Pike Place Politics, calling in per the Goldian dictate.

Will brought up a subject that prompted Goldy to advise Darryl to respost a link at Hominid Views, and sure enough, Darryl did it!

Now I'm writing about all of them, which is probably just what Goldy wants. There's just no escape...

(Come to think of it, isn't it kind of funny how the typically omnipresent Carl, he of the secret identity that is known only to those who've bothered to find out, has kept himself out of all this? Curiouser and curiouser…)

Is this what heaven is like?

You know, a place where you can turn on the radio and listen to a talk show host say "I'm a liberal Democrat" in unequivocal terms?

I suppose lots of upper lefties are used to it since David Goldstein got his Sunday night gig on KIRO, but I work on Sunday nights, and lefty talk radio isn't ideal barroom entertainment. Maybe in heaven.

Anyway, Goldy's on the radio, subbing for the vacationing Saturday regular, so I finally get a chance to tune in and there's no doubt about it, he's a pro. The prize for the savvy pro performance of the night, though, goes to Rep. Jay Inslee, the first guest of the evening.

Out of the blue, but somehow perfectly within context, Jay name-dropped Darcy Burner, with an unpromted endorsement of the next Member of Congress from the 8th District of Washington, calling her...
"…one of the most impressive candidates we have in the country this year."
It was just one of the highlights of Jay's ability to return our eyes to the prize, the need for a new Congress, over and over, regardless of the direction that Goldy or the callers may have wanted to pursue. He did it, though, without ducking questions or actually changing the subject, but by making the new Congress part of every answer, and element of every subject.

Jay Inslee just may be the best politician in the State of Washington.

Another number...

2516


And another, soon. That's the Republican plan.

Darcy did it!

And then some.



Which, of course, no reason you shouldn't give a little more...

Close...

...but this ain't horshoes.



Help put Darcy over the top!

Atrios is probably right.

There probably are bloggers out there who hate the "A-listers" for any or all of these reasons...
1) A-list bloggers have shitty blogs that no one should read but people just read them because they've been around for so long.
2) A-list bloggers are supporting the wrong candidates/causes. They are doing X, but they should be doing Y.
3) A-list bloggers suck up all the attention from better bloggers who everyone should be reading.
4) A-list bloggers end up representing the "netroots" but they shouldn't.
5) A-list bloggers aren't generous enough with their links and should be providing more publicity for other bloggers.
6) A-list bloggers are stupid and they're ugly and nobody likes them.
I don't buy 1-3 at all, myself. If the best writers don't get read, it's because blogging is more than writing. A-list bloggers are typically good writers, but they're often better promoters. I could probably boost the readership here, for instance, if I quit working on Tuesdays, joined the local Kewl Kidz club at Drinking Liberally and strong-armed my way into a podcast or two, or turned some of my posts into Kos diaries, or dropped more comments on other blogs or, well, there are a lot of ways to pump up the numbers. None, in my experience, quite as good as a link from Atrios, but lots.

And everyone's got a right to support anyone, as far as I'm concerned.

4 has a bit more resonance with me, but only because I still view the "netroots" as a mythological beast.

5 is, well, true, but hardly grounds for hate.

6 is what it is.

None of them, of course, have anything to do with the questions surrounding Jerome Armstrong's trouble with the SEC, Kos' relationship with Jerome and Kos' back channel efforts to kill the SEC story. One reason I've never bothered to blog anonymously is that I long ago discovered what Kos is apparently just learning - eventually everybody finds out everything about everyone, and the higher your profile, the faster you're likely to be found out.

Markos and Jerome, whether against their will and intentions or not, are popularly viewed as leaders of us all, even those of us who frequently dissent from their views and activities. That position comes with a burden, and it comes with rewards. Jerome's consultancy is thriving, with a well known, well heeled cilent. Kos makes a better than average living as a full time blogger, part time author.

If Jerome is forestalled from denying guilt under the terms of his SEC settlement, that's still not cause to bury the story, because it's a bigger story than Jerome's settlement by virtue of his high profile as a consultant and Kos' as a blogger. That may not be fair, but it's true.

There are legitimate questions that deserve forthright answers. How much faith we put in those answers will depend not only on what they are, but on how and when they're forthcoming. I'm not in a position to judge anyone at this point, I'm still at the "hmmm" stage. It's silly, though, to pretend that there aren’t legitimate questions, or that Jason Zengerle and his cohorts are some kind of right-wing trolls for raising them.

One thing that I'm kind of surprised that Atrios is so surprised about, though, is that Kos gets " surprisingly little credit for the fact that he's provided a platform which allows literally anyone to reach immense numbers of readers per day in an almost entirely community-run platform. " Heck, so does Blogspot, and I don't have to see their ads next to my words unless I want to.

From the "Me too" file…

Tom Schaller, guest blogging at The Carpetbagger Report
I actually think both Dean and Emanuel can be right—that it is not a mutually-exclusive choice. To explain:

As I understand it, Dean’s 50-state strategy calls for a minimum floor in each state which will essentially prevent the Democrats from (a) ever being caught totally unprepared and unarmed if, suddenly, a death or scandal or retirement provides a great opportunity; (b) having to reinvent the wheel every two years by having a semi-permanent staff—or at least a rotating permanent staff, with institutional memory and data and contacts and experience passed along—so that the party does not have to suffer the inefficiencies of starting anew each cycle.

This makes perfect sense. Dean is calling for a mininum floor, not an overhead ceiling. If, on the other hand, he were calling for an equal distribution of DNC resources—or worse, a proportional, population-based distribution of resources—I’d be the first respond by calling for him to get a CAT-scan.

Meanwhile, Emanuel is right, too: A party concentrates its resources based on its best risk-reward assessment of the present state of play. Will that mean sometimes dumping money into what turns out to be a lost cause (think Babbit’s run against Renzi in 2004) or, conversely, missing what could have been a great opportunity (think Gore in Ohio in 2000)? Of course. But if Ike had decided to distribute our troops evenly across every inch of the French coast, rather than concentrating on Normandy, we might all be speaking German right now. You target as best you can, work hard, and hope most of the breaks go your way. That’s applying the basics of game theory to modern politics, and we need more of that kind of thinking.
Different approaches for different jobs, maybe, but a common purpose. We've got lots to do. Lots of different things, in different ways, by different folks. That's why we have a DNC and a DcCC and a DSCC.

Of course, they all need and deserve our support. That's why all of the above are on the Upper Left ActBlue page.

Getting closer...

...but we still need to dig a little deeper for Darcy.

OK, so it's past noon...

...and the bed's not made. I blame the lovely and talented Miss Audrey Hepcat.

Actually, old soldiers do die…

...and when the enlistment standards of our armed forces are compromised in order to accommodate brand new old soldiers, more young soldiers are likely to die, too...
People can now volunteer to serve in the active-duty Army or the part-time Army Reserve and National Guard up to their 42nd birthday after the move aimed at increasing the number of people eligible to sign up, officials said.

It marked the second time this year the Army has boosted the maximum age for new volunteers, raising the ceiling from age 35 to 40 in January before now adding two more years.
I've been an Army trainee, and I've been 42. I can't imagine being both at the same time. It's not just a matter of physical aging. We're different people at 42 than at 19, or should be. More likely to say "Why, sir?" than "Yes, sir!" More conscious of our mortality. More vested in our homes and families.

Is there an exceptional 42 year old or two that is a truly suitable candidate for service? Maybe.

Should those exceptional cases be the standard for military policy, or will accommodating them likely weaken our forces?

Just six months ago the limit was seven years younger. Were we really that wrong six months ago?

I hate what they've done to my Army.

Getting it done...

...for Darcy.

When Brand W Dave Reichert needed to beef up the bankroll, he called on Bush. He knows, after all, who he works for, and he wants to get paid.

Darcy Burner's response was to turn to the folks she intends to work for - us. She set a goal of $75,000 within a week of George Bush's pilgrimage to Medina (that's less than the cost of ten of the 8x10 glossies the Preznit was peddling), and today's the last day. The goal is in reach...



...but there's not enought time left for direct mail or phone banks or a big fundraising bash. There's just us. And there's just now.

Click here and get it done for Darcy...and for all of us.

OK, it's simple now.

If you want to know the Democratic position on the occupation of Iraq, see the Levin Amendment.

If you want to know Maria Cantwell's position on the occupation of Iraq, see the Levin Amendment.

Of course, I'd rather see her name on the list of thirteen that voted for Kerry-Feingold...

The Kerry-Feingold Honor Roll

Sen. Daniel Akaka
Sen. Barbara Boxer
Sen. Richard Durbin
Sen. Russ Feingold
Sen. Tom Harkin
Sen. Daniel Inouye
Sen. James Jeffords
Sen. Edward Kennedy
Sen. John Kerry
Sen. Frank Lautenberg
Sen. Patrick Leahy
Sen. Robert Menendez
Sen. Ron Wyden


Just the same, that's over a quarter of the Democratic Senate at the leading edge. That's something.

Maria's vote for the Levin Amendment is something. too. Enough of something to make plain once and for all her differences with the stay and pay, lie and die course we're on in Iraq. You can fault her position for any number of reasons, from lack of urgency to insufficient contrition. Fair enough.

You can't say she supports Bush's war.

It's simple.

Democrats have a plan.

Maria's on board.

And the Republicans?

Still without a clue.

So, which side are you on?

Speaking of hungry…

Zogby

...George W. Bush’s job approval numbers have jumped significantly to 36%, as a nation hungry for good news out of Iraq was finally served a morsel, a new Zogby International poll shows.

"Jumped." "Significantly."

Sure. Five points in a poll with a ±3.1% MOE. To slightly over 1/3 support.

Uh huh.

Sounds like the hunger is to find some good news in the polls, and Zogby serves up a morsel of his own.

Let's face it. If Bush can't hold the NASCAR vote, there is no good news in his polls.

"A smear…

…wrapped in the veneer of journalism.
While I wouldn't call it a swift-boating myself, preferring to reserve the term for more direct attacks on the service record or patriotism of veterans, Diane at Tough Enough does a fine job of dissecting Kate Zernike's shoddy journalism (see my own thoughts below).

That Kerry fella may be the target this time, but it could be any Democrat. If we don't call them on it, every time, regardless of the target, eventually it will be every Democrat.

Kudos to one of Upper Left's favorite Bostonians.

It's time to get serious.

It's time to choose up sides. The Rasmussen Report looks at the Washington Senate race...
Thanks largely to her support for the war in Iraq, electoral support for Senator Maria Cantwell (D) has slipped once again—for the fifth survey in a row.

In the latest Rasmussen Reports poll of an increasingly competitive U.S. Senate race, Senator Cantwell now leads former Safeco CEO Mike McGavick (R) 44% to 40%.
Although Maria's numbers among Democrats are strong enough at 82% to insure her nomination, her numbers against McGavick have slipped 8% since last November, when she had a seemingly secure 52%. Where might 8% of her support might have gone? Rasmussen reports...
...8% of Democrats now say they would vote for another candidate altogether given a Cantwell-McGavick match-up. Only 1% of GOP voters feel that way.
If you count yourself among that 8%, can you really count yourself in the Democratic Party? Because Maria Cantwell is the Democratic candidate for the US Senate. The next Senator will be Maria or the Republican.

There are no other choices. Sorry about the sharply binary nature of American politics in the 21st century, but there it is.

Which side are you on?

Inside the Kewl Kidz Klubhouse…

Jason Zengerle offers a peek.

Hmmm...

Taking a page from Uncle Karl…

...Kate Zernike offers up some pure Rovian spin in a NYT piece with the provocative headline On Iraq, Kerry Again Leaves Democrats Fuming.

Really?

Well, maybe, but there's no evidence in the article that supports the idea.

In fact, Zernike admits that "Senate Democrats have been loath to express their opinions publicly, determined to emphasize a united front." That can't be so, though because "interviews suggest a frustration with Mr. Kerry."

"…suggest a frustration." That's barely a brief whisp passing in the breeze, let alone fumes.

It's true that Democrats are having an open and healthy debate on a redeployment plan for Iraq. That's because there are some things about the occupation that Democrats needn't debate any longer. Democratic Leader Harry Reid puts it succinclty…
"One thing the Democrats agree on is that this war has taken too long, is too expensive and has cost too many lives."
The message is clear and there are stark differences. Those stark differences, though, aren't between Democrats. The clear message from the Senate Democrats is that they are looking for a way out of Iraq while the Republicans offer nothing but the same old stay and spend, lie and die policy, apparently forever.

The Democratic message, though, doesn't quite fit the Rovian re-election script. Whenever you read a piece like Zernike's, remember this sound counsel from Chuck Todd (emphasis mine)...
What the Republicans have to fear going into the midterms is the casual voter, aka "independents." And the midterm elections are where the power of these casual voters are most evident. A successful candidate running in a non-presidential year is the one that recruits the most casual voters to his or her side. In this case, the Republicans are banking on depressing casual Democratic voters to the point that they won't vote, or that they believe their vote in 2006 won't matter, because the party they think they side with seems disorganized or lacking a voice.
Don't buy the Republican lie.

Democrats agree.

It's been too long.

It's too expensive.

Too many have died.

We have a position.

We're working on a plan.

And the Republicans haven't got a clue.

Frame of the day.

That Kerry fella
...they're going to try to make the elections in November a choice between "cut and run" and "stay the course". That's not the choice. My plan is not "cut and run." Their plan is "lie and die."
Good to see the L word come out of the holster.

Hat tip to the Carpetbagger Report.

Piling on.

Joe Klein's getting bashed from pillar to post around the lefty blogosphere today for all manner of wankerism today , and all if it's well deserved. There's a point in his latest, though, that deserves more attention. As awful as "embracing defeat" as a depiction of a withdrawal strategy for Iraq may be (see Professor Cole below), his slanderous depiction - a mass swift-boating of sorts - of Democrats is worse in my eyes…
"...embracing defeat is a risky political strategy, especially for a party not known for its warrior ethic."
Once again...

Someone remind me…

…why should I be excited about this guy?
GORE: "I am not involved. I typically do not get involved in Democratic primaries. Joe is my close friend, Joe & Hadassah are close to Tipper and me and it would be very difficult for me to ever oppose him. But I don't get involved in primaries typically. He's a great guy and he's right on a lot of other issues."
Of course, the last time Joe Lieberman was in a primary race Al Gore rather famously, if atypically, opposed him. How'd that work out?

As I've said, the movie's probably great, if not really groundbreaking. I'm glad Al's got a productive way to spend his time. His aptitude for character judgement, though? Seriously in doubt. And those "other issues"? Yeah, I used to say that, too.

It's not the issues, though, that have put so many Democrats off Holy Joe. It's the persistence of images like this…



…and, of course, the continued threat that Joe will bolt the Party if the voters displease him.

When Al Gore's talking about Joe Lieberman, the topic shouldn't be endorsements or issues, it should be an apology long overdue for elevating the sanctimonious little squeaky toy in the first place.

Update: On reflection, that sounds a bit grumpy, doesn't it? Here, then, for the sake of ending on a positive note.
Ned Lamont

"…virtually abandoned…"

Damn.
WASHINGTON — The Bush administration, which is vowing to crack down on U.S. companies that hire illegal workers, virtually abandoned such employer sanctions before it began pushing to overhaul U.S. immigration laws last year, government statistics show.
How virtual?
In 1999, the United States initiated fines against 417 companies. In 2004, it issued fine notices to three.
George Bush doesn't care about the border.

George Bush doesn't care about you.

Profit and power. That's it. That's all he cares about.

Truth…

…from my own personal Congressman.
The Iraq debate in the House of Representatives should begin with one fundamental truth: We are in Iraq and our leaders have no plan to get out of Iraq.

****

The unending war, the permanent bases, the fortress embassy we're building all make a powerful argument that our involvement in Iraq is more an occupation than a liberation. This promotes terrorism. This helps recruit terrorists, it doesn't help end terrorism.

U.S. soldiers in Iraq are doing a heroic job. But, we are not doing ours. It is not partisan politics to insist that a nation in war have a plan to achieve peace.

****

Two things of note came out of the Pentagon today: the grim announcement that the number of U.S. soldiers killed in Iraq has just passed two thousand, five hundred, and a 74 page booklet to help Republicans manage spin control during the Iraq debate in the House.

That's an affront to the American people, not a front in the war on terror. The American people want change because the Pentagon under this Administration distributes PR plans, not military plans.
More from Jim McDermott at The Huffington Post.

The flash reveals the little devil...

...in the lovely and talented Miss Audrey Hepcat.

Deadbeat DoD.

SAN ANTONIO -- Fort Sam Houston has received 1,300 utility service termination notices for delinquent bill payments, which officials blamed on a major budget shortfall.

CPS Energy warned commanders at the post to pay $4.2 million by Wednesday or risk losing power. The post is three months behind on its bills, but both Army and utility officials said the two parties were talking and no cutoff was imminent.

"Who would imagine us not paying our bill?" said Col. Wendy Martinson, Fort Sam Houston's garrison commander. "I worry about it. I can't sleep at night."
Of course, over at Fort Hood, cutting the power might be useful for hiding the vermin.

I hate what they've done to my Army.

I hate what they're doing to our troops.

Hat tip to Holden.

I've been saving notes…

…for an epic post on Maria and the war, but, well, what Goldy says...
But to those who attack Sen. Cantwell for being pro-war or for having no plan to withdraw, I have to say that this simply is not true. Sen. Cantwell is clearly not for immediate withdrawal; she’s for making the best of a very bad situation by attempting to stabilize the Iraqi government, build its security forces, and internationalize the intervention so as to permit the US to largely reduce its military presence over the course of the next year and a half or so.

Whether this is possible or not, I do not know, but it is grounds for a reasonable debate. Unfortunately, the sense that I get from some people in my own party – people I largely agree with on many issues – is that they do not want a debate. They want Sen. Cantwell to apologize for her vote, to aggressively criticize the Bush administration, and to call for an immediate withdrawal. I understand this, but well… life is full of disappointments.
The next junior Senator from the state of Washington will be Maria Cantwell or Mike McGavick. It's simply a matter of choosing up sides.

Which side are you on?

Maybe it's best to cool our jets…

…until we see just what happens in Connecticut.

A Hotline item reporting that DSCC Chair Chuck Schumer "refused to rule out" supporting Holy Joe if he were to run as an independent after a primary loss to Ned Lamont. The reaction from liberal bloggers came fast and furious, with warnings to Schumer and calls for withholding contributions from the Committee. It probably behooves everyone to settle down just a bit.

Don't get me wrong. I support Lamont's challenge and appreciate his commitment to respect the outcome of the primary election. On the other hand, I have some sympathy for Schumer's situation right now. For better or (mostly) worse, Joe Lieberman is a member of the caucus represented by the DSCC and, as such, is a contributor to the Committee, as well as a past Finance Chair of the Committee. Even if he loses the primary election and undertakes an independent run, he will do so as a member of the Democratic caucus. Schumer, then is honor bound to be circumspect in any discussions of the Connecticut race. After all, caucus members contribute millions of dollars to the Committee every cycle, and they don't imagine that any of their own dollars might somehow be used against them some day.

Of course, regardless of the outcome of the primary, it's unlikely that Lieberman would receive anything from the DSCC except another solicitation to invest in needier campaigns. I think "full support" in the context of the Connecticut Senate race means "We aren't going to hurt him." rather than "We plan to help him."

In other words, Joe Lieberman's not likely to get any money you might donate to the DSCC, before or after the primary and regardless of the outcome.

Oh yeah. The outcome.

In fact, Joe Lieberman is still the favorite (though his advantage is fading) in the primary, and in the general he appears well situated to win with or without the Party nomination. That's a further complication that requires an additional degree of circumspection from the DSCC Chair. John Aravosis sets the potential problem with one of the potential outcomes...
"I'd really hate to see Lieberman put in a position where he's holding all the cards - i.e., Lieberman runs as an independent, wins, the Senate is divided 49-50, and then the Dems have to BEG Lieberman to support Harry Reid as the party leader rather than the Republicans. ... That's not good for the Democratic party or America."
Meanwhile, the DSCC needs support from all quarters, including the netroots, in order to support targeted candidates and pursue the path to 51. Frankly, the netroots, too, need to increase our profile as a source of support for the Party committees as well as candidates in order to maximize our influence with the national Party. Along with Avarosis' concerns, there's the potential for a new Senate majority without, or even against, our efforts. That would be good for the Party, sure, and for the country, but bad for the netroots.

Of course, if Joe Lieberman does win the primary, all this is academic. If he loses the primary and doesn't make an independent bid, this is all sound and fury signifying nothing. If he wins the primary, well, the seat needs to be Democratic, even if it's not the Democrat I prefer.

Bottom line? If you want a Democratic majority in the US Senate, you want the DSCC to succeed and they still deserve your consideration. That's why they're on the Upper Left ActBlue page, and that's why they'll stay there. If you want Ned Lamont to be part of that majority, you know how to make that happen too.
