Anti-occupancy forces have been targeting American soldiers, Iraqi police, Iraqi politicians/leaders, UN workers, Red Cross workers, the Italians–everyone involved in the US-backed occupation.

Over the past week, another oil pipeline was attacked and set on fire.

MoveOn.org Voter Fund

Nice.

Two ads on MoveOn.org about George Bush’s job creation record and what the $87 billion could have bought in the US.

Any donations to MoveOn.org will be matched by some very wealthy donors.

Treason’s Greetings - The GOP calls Democrats soft on terror. By William Saletan and Jacob Weisberg

Saletan and Weisberg do a good job of dissecting the ad.

CBS News | Press Finds Dean Two-Dimensional

Heh heh heh… check out the video–the link’s on the left hand side right above the picture of Eric Salzman.

In response to the RNC’s attack ad on Democrats (”Some are now attacking the president for attacking the terrorists.”), the Dean campaign has created its own counter ad, putting the lie to their assertions. Over the weekend they put up a bat to fund the ad and raised $360,000 two days ahead of schedule. This new ad will start running in Iowa thanks to the 5,767 contributions averaging $63.

The bat’s still up; I’ve placed a copy of it to the right. Feel free to click it and make a contribution of $5 or $10. We’re looking at 11 months of negative campaigning from the Republican leadership, and we’re going to have to counter them on the streets and over the airwaves.

It’s official. I’m old. I’m listening to decades-old music that first came on the air waves when I was a kid. But there was so much New Wave / Brit-Pop goodness at Bang Saturday night that I’m just going to have to share…

Op-Ed Columnist: Scaring Up Votes

Blog for America : Virginia is Dean Country | November 22, 2003

It was supposed to be a ribbon-cutting ceremony. A few words of welcome, a toast or two, maybe a tour of our 20-phone-line Virginia HQ. Dean Corps got into the action and urged attendees to bring donations for local shelters.

We’re talking a full-blown, all-out rally — and Governor Dean wasn’t even there.

Awesome.

Ted Rall gives his Anybody But Bush endorsement to Dean:

Ted Rall - Howard Dean for President

I don’t regret voting for Ralph Nader in 2000…. I figured George W. Bush for a meaner, stupider version of his dad, another linguistically challenged, harmless centrist with little agenda aside from paying off his contributors with, say, a cut in the capital gains tax.

Howard Dean has the best chance to beat Bush.

Funny stuff. Especially if you’ve heard the interviews with Gene Simmons and Bill O’Reilly.
