No, he attended a secular school in Indonesia. No. No. Yes, but who cares? Why? Which parts of his past though? The stuff that actually happened or the made up parts?

If he stays healthy.

Miguel Cabrera now has 1,000 Major League hits. He is 25 years old.

So that was your fault?

I love the Mescaleros. All 3 albums are excellent, though they got better as they went along. Streetcore is pretty much perfect.

Another difference is that Olbermann does correct himself when he makes factual errors. O'Reilly has never apologized for anything. Also, Olbermann comments mainly on the people in the news whereas Bill O'Reilly generally comments on what the people in the news think of Bill O'Reilly.

I'm surprised that more politicians don't just follow Cheney's lead and get their own cable news channel to give exclusive interviews.

I assume they use self-identification for that, but I'm really not sure.

Bing can't do any worse than Kwame did. I don't know if anyone can fix Detroit but Bing can probably at least get the task started.

It's actually fifth, which is higher than I expected to see it when I looked it up (the only larger cities are Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau and Sitka, with a pretty significant drop off between Juneau and Sitka).

Republican Convention delegates, according to the New York Times: White: 93% African American: 2% Latino: 5% Men: 68% Women: 32% Democratic Convention delegates, according to USA Today: White: 56.7% African American: 24.5% Latino: 11.8% Men: 50% Women: 50%

They have no choice.

To give McCain credit where it is do, the Palin choice was truly MAVERICK, though perhaps also stupid.

Yeah, I didn't like anything Palin said, but I think she was probably effective in her objective, in speaking to a specific group of people that doesn't include me. What part of MI are you headed to? I thought about heading back home for to work on the campaign (since Obama will certainly win here) but can't get myself to commit to it.

Yeah, that kid had no idea what he was getting into. I feel bad for him.

Not the best album of 2008, but it's a lot of fun and I've given it several listens.

I just can't get over how so many of the speakers at this convention are talking about the problems of the last few years -- the housing market, gas prices, pointless war, unemployment, etc. -- as if they're completely unaware of their own responsibility in creating those problems.

Shit yes. And maybe you could get a mustache ride. Has anyone here been to a game in Milwaukee? I'm going to get up to the city early in the afternoon -- does anyone have any suggestions for some things to do around the ballpark for a few hours?

Going to a game in Milwaukee tomorrow night.

Never

I still can't believe how prevalent the "it can't happen here" attitude still is.

I dig it.

Yeah, there might have been an uptight audience one time a few weeks ago.

I can't wait for the rest of the media to pick up ABC New's AIP story.

Are you watching a different show than I am every night?
