Proving once again that Bush is a "uniter, not a divider" -
The man behind the bulk of the carnage in Iraq, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, has apparently teamed up with Osama bin Laden (remember him?) (maybe you'll recognize him when he's miraculously captured during the next two weeks).

"Stop fact-checking us!" --
Apparently stated with a straight face: "The Bush campaign should be able to make an argument without having it reflexively dismissed as distorted or inaccurate by the biggest papers in the country," says spokesman Steve Schmidt. Meanwhile, the Post suddenly realizes that there is an effective difference between exaggerating the truth, and telling bald-faced lies (guess which campaign specializes in the latter?).

Perhaps it's time for a constitutional amendment --
stating that no one with a sitting state governor in the immediate or extended family member can run for president? Seems pretty logical to me.

Geez, poor Tom Delay just can't get a break --
First, he gets a "tsk tsk" by the ethics committee (and is incensed by it) and now his pet redistricting scheme is not merely being rubberstamped?!

This is rich --
Putin urges voters to vote for Bush!

GOP Block the Vote --
The efforts intensify.

Bush gets a little election help from the UK --
The US has asked the UK for more troops, and they're actually "considering" it.

The Emperor has no reason --

A senior Republican, experienced and wise in the ways of Washington, told me last Friday that he does not necessarily accept that Bush is unstable, but what is clear, he added, is that he is now manifestly unfit to be President.

I'd quibble with their regurgitation of RNC anti-Kerry talking points --
But an uncommon (for a Republican paper) voice of reason can be heard in The Tampa Tribune's decision not to endorse Bush this year.

Just brilliant --
You can all go back to carrying guns and other weapons onto Dulles and Reagan National Airport property, now. Doesn't that make you feel safer? (thanks, J)
