Nightly Ramble: Poor Lying; The Moonbats are Made of Green Cheese; More.

• So, when Obama was in front oa AIPAC, he told them Jerusalem must remain undivided. Next day, (Actually only a few hours later ) he remembers his freinds in Hamas who endorsed him, and says the future of the city should be negotiated. He calls it poor phrasing. I call it poor lying.
• It figures. Cynthia McKinney is the Green Party nominee. How much she will draw of of Obama’s vote is an open question, but it does strike me as interesting that she’s making the attempt. It’s cheesy, for her even to make the attempt, for one thing.
• Shut up, Arnold. Just shut up.
• Amazing to me how long it took the MSM to jump onto this “hacked cellphone” story. I guess the problem is they never figured out how to blame George Bush for the problem.
• Seems Devner isn’t making out all that well from the DNC coming to town.  It’ll be interesting to see the Democrats lose to McCain in the Devnver voting breakout.
• Levant seems to feel Canada needs to be on the list of Human rights abusers. I think so as well, and said so when the Mark Steyn bit started.
• I spoke of the cover of the New Yorker this morning. But nobody… well, OK, damned few, are talking about the story behind that cover.  Jammie Wearing Fool is one such person, though.  Note the Rezko link in the New Yorker article…. not that anyone will do anything about it.
• I’ve been quoting Jen Rubin here quite a bit of late.  Here, she talks about some of the interesting earmaarks Obama is linked to, and wonders why McCain isn’t making much of it. (Shrug) I suppsoe that will come. Don’t want to peak too soon.
• Interesting that Stephen Green comes to the same conclusions about Jackson’s “I wanna cut his nuts off” outburst, that I did a week or so back.
• I see Mike Smirkonish is talking abut leaving Radio before long. Mike, for those of you who don’t know, works for 1210/WPHT in Philly. During the winter months, I listen to him regularly. (PHT doesn’t get up here well daytimes during the summer) Given we’ve been seeing him on Glenn Beck’s TV show of late, might this be where he’s bound… TV? Time will tell.
• Bush removed the ban on offshore drilling that he’d placed in effect years ago at a news conference at 13:30 eastern time. It’s a ban that never should ahve been put into place, but it’s understandable why he made order; He was trying to out-green the Democrats.  It’s like I’ve been saying since 99… Bush is no conservative… he wa merely a better choice than Gore. Granted, that wasn’t hard.
• If you’re curious, Angelina Jolie had the twins, apparently a couple days ago. Shows you how much it means to me, I didn’t know.
• The one thing that comes up in reading Obama’s new plan for Iraq… it’s his old plan for Iraq, with a different headline.
