For the first time in ten years, crime goes up. Ah, the Dubya era…remember when the Dems were meant to be “soft on crime”? Of course, that was before the GOP allied itself with the gun nuts.

The Other Shoe Drops.
Perhaps content that Saddam’s “resurgence” has snuffed out media coverage of Enrongate for the time being, Dubya tries to gut the SEC’s budget increase, making it impossible for the agency to fulfill the requirements of the recently-signed Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Absolutely shameful. And, as per usual, I think we can guess who’s the brains behind these latest shenanigans.
Here He Comes to Save the Day!
Our current crop of 2004 Dem potentials may look like a bunch of cowardly, poll-obsessed, not-ready-for-prime-time sycophants, but we still have our ace in the hole. Anyone else up for repealing the 22nd Amendment?
Riding the Fence.
Just when you thought it was safe to visit Iowa, the Post checks in with the Gore camp and their “definitely maybe” electoral strategy.
Is Bush a Liar?
Well, you be the judge…check out Dubya’s 9-11 timeline, and the story behind it. Very Gore-esque. (Via Genehack from awhile ago, but I neglected to post it earlier.)
The Last Binge Continues.
Six weeks before McCain-Feingold is enacted, Republicans and Democrats are begging for money like it’s going out of style.
Hey, wait a minute…
“The result of our attack [on Saddam] would be his using the very weapons we are trying to deter.” TNR profiles Senator Carl Levin, a lonely Democratic voice in the battle over Iraq.
It begins.
After Drudge’s report (linked yesterday), the Gorewatch heats up. Sigh. Maybe if I ignore it for awhile, it‘ll all go away.
Oh no.
Gut Check.
No party can serve two masters, so before which interest group will the GOP prostrate itself…big business or pro-lifers? Decisions, decisions. Right now, it’s looking like the latter.
