How My 7-Year-Old Learned About Pre-Marital Sex from John McCain
I wholly believe in educating my child about contraception. But given that he is 7, I could have waited a few years for that particular talk.
Sorting and Consensus
My thanks to Bill, TPM, and all the book club contributors and readers this week. This weekend, share a copy of Bill’s book with your favorite political opponent. It’s readable, funny, and enlightening, and you will feel smarter, not…
Office Of Special Counsel Has The Same Political Problems As DOJ, Former Workers Say
The Department of Justice has been taking a lot of heat lately for the inspector general’s report detailing pervasive, illegal partisanship among upper-level officials. But former employees from the Office of Special Counsel say they’ve been complaining about the exact…
Number of times Bush was mentioned during the RNC last night: 0.
Not only did the speakers during last night’s Republican National Convention fail to discuss the economy at all, they never once mentioned President Bush. TPM Election Central searched the texts of the speeches and found no mention of the words “Bush” or “president” when connected to Bush. It also notes, “The GOP’s page of […]
Not only did the speakers during last night’s Republican National Convention fail to discuss the economy at all, they never once mentioned President Bush. TPM Election Central searched the texts of the speeches and found no mention of the words “Bush” or “president” when connected to Bush. It also notes, “The GOP’s page of speeches, which included the orations of a bunch of unknowns, didn’t even bother including the speeches given by the president or Laura.”
Palin the Impaled
ST. PAUL, Minn. — If conventions are supposed to be about message discipline and stagecraft, Republicans have been improv street theater to the Democrats’ Broadway. Every day has brought a brand new buzz — and that was before the convention got started. Republicans euphoric about vice presidential pick Sarah Palin hardly got to enjoy a news cycle before Hurricane Gustav stole headlines and resurrected the ghosts of Katrina. Then came the news that Palin’s 17-year-old daughter, Bristol, is five months pregnant.
McCain Comes Through
Partisan Democrats and many members of the media consider John McCain’s choice of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as his running mate a terrible mistake. But McCain need not worry about their criticism. His unexpected selection satisfied the people he needed to please. Republican conservatives assembling in St. Paul for the party’s national convention were “ecstatic” over the choice. Nor did the announcement Monday that Palin’s 17-year-old unmarried daughter was pregnant — but would raise the child and marry the father — perceptibly diminish the enthusiasm for her in St. Paul by Republicans, who regarded the news as irrelevant to the vice presidential selection.

Cost Of The Iraq War. $4-6 Billion For a Lie. |
Where's Osama?On Sept. 11th, 2001 George Bush said he would catch bin Laden dead or alive. He never did, we used to run a counter showing how many days it had been, but Obama finally took care of it for him. Just another Bush lie. |
The Hollywood Liberal started in 2004 at the height of the Bush Administration madness in America. We were inspired by the late great Bartcop.com. The very first thing I did when the site started was to get arrested at the 2004 Republican National Convention in New York. My arrest at the start of a march from The World Trade Center was later ruled unconstitutional by a federal judge. On New Years Eve 2014 the case was finally settled, with a judge awarding a class action suit that I was part of over $26 Million. I posted daily on the blog up until the end of The Bush error, and the site is now run as a history of the whole fiasco. Feel free to browse the old postings, pictures, & comics (an HL favorite) It reveals the twisted history of the times. Thanks H.L.
