The Political Animal says Ciresi’s still straddling the fence, but the real question du jour is whether Draft Ciresi! is just another anonymous vox populi group of bloggers? or more Brodkorb-wannabees leaving a trail of slime across cyberspace?
Let’s look at the evidence. Draft Ciresi! is pro-Ciresi, anti-Franken, and strangely silent about why they want to beat Norm Coleman. And despite their charming names, Dump Coleman, Moderate Thinker and DFL Activist Anonymous don’t seem to appear anywhere online other than at Draft Ciresi! (not to mention links in from Minnesota’s most notorious concern troll blog and hotbed of Republican retardation, MDE, and his Almanac-based enabler and #1 fan at Blog Digest)
Yes, there may be three Democrats who hate Al Franken so much they forget to talk about Norman Bertram Coleman’s unzipped libido, round-heeled wife or slutty voting record, but I sure haven’t met them.
I give these “bloggers” a week, and if by then they haven’t ripped Coleman to shreds on something, I’m calling this one as a very weird but classically sleazy Republican dirty trick, just another bunch of not-so-clever Republicans trying to pass themselves off as sane human beings.

No sooner does the Supreme Court rule that you can’t silence a man without giving him a day in court, than Tony the Fixer writes in his decision that this decision will murder Americans.
No Tony, that’s George Bush’s job, and he’s doing a bang-up job of it. As for Gitmo, the latest is about an Ethiopian (and former British resident) whose genitals were lacerated while in Moroccan custody as part of our extraordinary rendition program.

Bob Collins has been doing a great job of laying waste to the myth that there’s still public housing in George Bush’s America. I’ve had to pick up some of those forms for a public health nurse I know, and just getting your hands on one is an adventure worthy of its own reality TV show.
George Bush likes homeless people. They make his trailer park supporters feel like they’re doing OK.

How childish has the hard right become? Barack Obama has found it necessary to release a facsimile of his Hawaiian birth certificate.
I didn’t know there were any sane Americans who questioned his country of origin, but then I don’t expose my brain to hazmat b’casts from Fox or Rush.

I can’t begin to tell you how happy I am that the WCAL case is alive again thanks to an honest judge who just poked a very sharp stick into a part of Bill Kling’s fiefdom where the sun doesn’t shine (actually, that would be most of his quasi public/private/all-for-Kling business ventures).
The Current is a vastly overrated radio station that belongs on the commercial end of the dial (the other 90% of it). The left end of the dial traditionally belongs to classical, jazz and bluegrass music for which there isn’t sufficient audience to make a commercial station viable in these days of overpriced FCC licenses and Clear Channel garbage.
It should be noted that all of the left end of the dial traditional musical formats are as American as apple pie, lynching and sex crimes. Modern rock? That was invented by the devil in the ’80s when he realized the old style rock wasn’t damning enough people. What’s worse than modern rock? Modern rock with a Patsy Cline song thrown in just to make sure everyone’s annoyed at least once an hour.

Pawlentyism: taking credit for something over and over and over again, even when the truth of the matter would lead to a grand jury indictment.

Republican Mel Martinez all but calls Dick Cheney a liar, but that’s OK because Cheney was lying his ass off, as was John Bohner and Roy Blunt.
There are worse haters, but these three are prime examples of lie first, apologize on Friday after the national news.

You can’t teach about Malcolm X in Los Angeles, apparently because it interferes with city-wide white pride ordinances. Teacher Karen Salazar now has her own website if you want more information about this latest knuckledragging effort at censoring our schools and restricting learning to dead white guys who fucked their slaves and beat their wives.

Hannity admits to shilling for McCain, then has to backtrack quickly to avoid letting the truth be aired on Fox (one of the undisputed signs of the Apocalypse right up there next to four guys on horseback galloping across the sky).

The rest:
Light rail gets green light from UM
Record new lows for Bush, Cheney and Rice
Mills Farms’ Gummi Bears most obscene candy ever (apparently they never thought to rotate the initial “lighthouse” design)

Charlie picks up on the McCain nautical flag game, and Jonathan Schwarz at A Tiny Revolution plugs my Truth and Reconciliation post at Factesque.
