Ralph Lopez has the details at the Big Orange.

Right on! We love you man!

P.S. Rep. Conyers was instrumental in helping draft a more progressive health care platform for the DNC in Pittsburgh last weekend according to reports from Eagle County Co-Chair, Harvie Branscomb who attended the platform meeting. He, Conyers, is working hard on several fronts. This is a big deal.

I'm sure all the free-marketers and "support the troops" bs-ers and war-mongers will acknowledge that these brave men and women know exactly what they are doing by giving to Obama.

Joe Conason: "According to Suskind, the administration's highest officials -- presumably meaning President Bush and Vice President Cheney -- solved this problem by ordering the CIA to manufacture a document "proving" that Saddam had indeed been trying to build nuclear weapons and that he was also working with al-Qaida. The reported product of that order was a fake memorandum from Tahir Jalil Habbush, then chief of Saddam's intelligence service, to the dictator himself, dated July 1, 2001. The memo not only explicitly confirmed that 9/11 hijacker Mohammed Atta had received training in Baghdad for "attacking the targets that we have agreed to destroy" but also carefully noted the arrival of a "shipment" from Niger via Libya, presumably of uranium yellowcake, the sole export of that impoverished African country."

Top Sign McCain's In Trouble

I just watched Howard Fineman on Countdown calling Virginia, Indiana and Montana 'swing states'.

TPM's Josh Marshall is on a roll.

Josh at Talking Points Memo reporting about Sen. McBush insisting his wife enter the Miss Buffalo Chip beauty contest in Sturgis, SD.  They have video. Creepy.

Politico: "A new book by the author Ron Suskind claims that the White House ordered the CIA to forge a back-dated, handwritten letter from the head of Iraqi intelligence to Saddam Hussein."

But one man yelled, “The whole U.S. is a First Amendment area!”

Garfield County activist yelling from the 'coned-off' first ammendment area at the Glenwood Springs BLM offices as more than 1,600 letters of protest were hand delivered by Save the Roan and other activists groups.  I would be proud to learn that mine was among them! dkm

"Am I a tech freak? No," he said in an interview Monday with The Chronicle. "And I don't like to text message because I'd rather call somebody on the telephone."

It's all about Dick:

The veep had planned to speak to the Disabled American Veterans at 8:30 a.m. at its August convention in Las Vegas.

His staff insisted the sick vets be sequestered for two hours before Cheney's arrival and couldn't leave until he'd finished talking, officials confirmed.

And really, only Republicans care about the troops....
