Billary will speak at the Dem convention
The Mrs. will speak on Tuesday August 26th, which is “Women’s Equality Day” (the 88th anniversary of the 19th amendment’s passage).
The secret Obama salute?
Ugh.   This idea (from an ad agency) is just another sign that this election, sadly, has become more like an American Idol popularity contest by the day.Â

In response to a 7 year-old girl’s question at a campaign stop earlier this week asking why he was running for president, here was Obama’s response:
The NYT on the Hamdan ruling
I’m buried under as usual today but I wanted to link up to Andy McCarthy’s slam of today’s NYT editorial, which is titled “Guilty as Ordered” (emphasis mine) in reference to the recent guilty ruling in Gitmo’s Hamdan trial.   As expected, the NYT is reflexively anti-Bush, strongly implying that he is a dicator prone to imperial rule. Both McCarthy’s rebuttal, as well as NRO’s response, go a long way towards providing the details the NYT, of course, won’t.Â
Is he guilty, or isn’t he?
Last month I blogged about the scandal surrounding former NC Senator, and twice failed candidate for president John Edwards and the alleged “love child” he supposedly fathered with a woman named Rielle Hunter. At the time there was no photo evidence one way or the other. Yesterday, the Enquirer released photos they say are of Edwards and the child. The pix are a little grainy, but it does look like it’s Edwards.Â
