The Redstaters are generous souls. Earlier this week they banned new, wacked-out Ron Paul supporters for inundating the site with shills for Paul. They’ve taken much grief. So with a generous spirit they opened up a post for Paulbots to utter their adoration for the anti-war, libertarian-harming, Republican candidate. But there’s a catch: it has [...]
John Edwards has been a Presidential candidate who has aggressively used the internet to build support. There’s hardly a social network he isn’t using–YouTube, MySpace, Facebook, even lesser-known sites like Ning, and vSocial.
By jumping into so many social network pools it would seem the campaign understands basic viral marketing. So, this story amazes me [...]
Brian Fraley and Corey Liebmann yap about weblogs. Fraley gives TAM some love even if he continues the longest-running joke in the Wisconsin blogosphere. To find out what it is you’ll have to watch or listen.

We have documentation of a conversation that took place between editors of The New Republic and Scott Beauchamp. In those transcripts we know the soldier writer no longer wanted to defend himself. He wanted to put the whole issue of fake Iraq stories behind him and concentrate on his soldiering.
Now, we have word from TNR [...]
Jack vs. Tony. No CTU, but there’s still Chloe. And the torture remains. The new season of 24 has promise.

Maybe “this Army conduct stinks really, really badly.” It doesn’t get us any closer to answering these questions:
Did Scott Beauchamp make up his stories about military misconduct in Iraq?
Did Beauchamp recant?
What did The New Republic know and when did they know it?
Why did TNR not tell us about their conversation with Beauchamp?
On that last question [...]

Someone tosses The New Republic under the bus:
The DRUDGE REPORT has obtained internal documents from the investigation of THE NEW REPUBLIC’S “Baghdad Diarist”, Scott Thomas Beauchamp, an Army private turned war correspondent who reported tales of military malfeasance from the Iraq War front.
The documents appear to expose that once the veracity of Beauchamp’s diaries were [...]
Jeff, my cyberstalker, your petty threats have gone too far. I’m in contact with the army base you send your spew from. They have lots of interesting comments of you screaming at me.
And if you find an answer to the legal issues of IP masking/changing realize I have your phone number and address. [...]
Fred released his Border Security and Immigration Reform Plan. I’ll copy the highlights I posted on the Fred File:
No Amnesty. Amnesty undermines U.S. law and policy, rewards bad behavior, and is unfair to the millions of immigrants who follow the law and are awaiting legal entry into the United States.
Attrition through Enforcement. Adding “at least [...]
Tom McMahon notices something familiar about the 2008 race. I hope history doesn’t repeat.

Time magazine was founded by Henry Luce and Britton Hadden. For decades it was known for informing the public about the events of the day. Wikipedia notes Hadden “saw Time as something important but also fun” so the magazine can be lighthearted. But I can’t imagine thinking Ana Marie Cox counting how many times Fred [...]
No, I won’t be doing it, but it will be happening on the Fred File starting in a few minute. As far as I know this is the first time a Presidential campaign will be liveblogging in Spanish.

Green Bay Packers fans have lost one of the most beloved characters ever to wear the green and gold:
Max McGee, a record-setting receiver who helped the Green Bay Packers win five World Championships and later was a popular color commentator on the team’s radio broadcasts, died Saturday at his home in Deephaven, Minn.
McGee was [...]
