   Twenty years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, Gnter Grass still thinks reunification was a bad idea.
 Forty years of writing from Taylor Branch, James Fallows, Katherine Boo, Marjorie Williams, Joshua Micah Marshall, and more.
 With help from Washington, the for-profit college industry is loading up millions of low-income students with debt they'll never pay off.
 The best recent memoir from republican Washington is a hoax. That should tell you something.

QUOTE OF THE DAY.... Leon Panetta, to his credit, highlights one of the problems with Dick Cheney's rhetoric. (via Halperin)
I don't doubt that Panetta's remarks will be seen as highly controversial by the right, but the CIA director's comments are bolstered by reality. —Steve Benen 11:10 AM Permalink | Trackbacks | Comments (9)Comments
The 'blood' Chaney smells in the water is the chum HE's putting in! Posted by: g'moms on June 14, 2009 at 11:14 AM | PERMALINKAt least one high-profile Republican is saying that Bush-Cheney was bad for the USA and even their Party (perhaps only in tactical sense, FAIK.) At Thinkprogress we find that In an interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos, House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-OH) pinned the blame for his party’s current failures on the Bush presidency: “We’re digging ourselves out of a deep hole,” he admitted. “We took it in the shorts with Bush-Cheney, the Iraq War, and by sacrificing fiscal responsibility to hold power.” Yeah, the whole rightwing movement is now a chum throwing exercise. Rechumlicans! Now just Rechumplicans ...

Hey Dick! Whatever you think of us is totally irrelevant; we are the present, we are the future, you are the past; pay your dues and get out of the way... because we're not the way you used to be, when we were very young. ~ Paul Kantner, 1969(pig era) Posted by: Ten Bears on June 14, 2009 at 12:09 PM | PERMALINKPlease do catch Headline News' Robin Meade's interview with H.W. Bush after his 85th birthday jump, where he spanks Cheney and the rest of his posse for mouthing off and praises the Obama administration. Aired entirely tomorrow a.m. but parts are on HLN today. (HLN: The only cable news I can stomach anymore) Posted by: MissMudd on June 14, 2009 at 12:15 PM | PERMALINKGod damn Dick Cheney's shit-filled soul to hell. Posted by: neill on June 14, 2009 at 1:33 PM | PERMALINKGood for Leon! We have become so accustomed to hearing right wingers question the patriotism of liberals and suggest that liberals and Democrats actually want disaster to befall the country to score a few cheap political points, that it is quite startling to hear a Democrat accuse a Republican of the very same cynical opportunism by suggesting in such stark terms that the former Veep might actually welcome another attack if it would advance the GOP's political prospects. Posted by: Ted Frier on June 14, 2009 at 3:33 PM | PERMALINKWhat neill said. And snaps to Panetta! Posted by: The Galloping Trollop on June 14, 2009 at 4:01 PM | PERMALINKDick Cheney does not care about America. I'm not merely questioning his patriotism, I do not believe he has one ounce of it within his no-bid soul. Posted by: Unsympathetic on June 15, 2009 at 8:05 AM | PERMALINK
