Say hello to Little Bitsy from Brevard, North Carolina.

Awww, please?

If you've wandered over to John Cole's Balloon-Juice in the past few weeks you may have noticed that Bitsy has taken over the place. To find out why, and just who Little Bitsy is, follow me over the fold...

I would like to point to Simple Canadian's excellent diary in which he deftly debunks the arguments being made, (the Republic of Kenya wasn't a country in Feb. 1964, details, details...) by those still on the loony left regarding the now not-so-sekrit muzlim in chief's 100% authentic Kenyan birth certificate. I think with this final piece of the puzzle we can finally reconstruct just how the plot to install the extremely radical(TM) non-bank nationalizing, non-single-payer advocating Hyper-Marxist most definitely non-citizen Obama as president.

I've done some research and it seems the plot goes back much further than even I had realized, read on for my scandalous proof...

Senator John Ensign (R-NV) chair of the NRSC cut this ad at the beginning of the year. While notable for its cheesy music and over the top flagginess, the thing that makes this ad so hilarious is that they actually thought they had a chance to recapture the Senate.

How do you like being on the wrong side of (a minimum of) a 57 seat majority John?

According to a report released late Thursday night Governor Palin was cleared of all wrongdoing in the firing of Alaska safety commissioner Walt Monegan.

While speculation that the governor abused her power in office by pressuring Monegan to fire her brother in law, Alaska state trooper Mike Wooten, was rampant, a report released by the McCain campaign today cleared the Republican Vice Presidential nominee of any wrong doing.

After reading about the Clark County Democratic caucus clusterf&%k on the front page I thought that I would try and offer some defense for the state party.

First some background information, I chaired my precinct caucus, and was elected an Obama delegate from there. The precinct caucuses were nothing short of chaotic, but that is to be expected given Nevada's relatively little experience in the presidential selection process. However, there were ample training opportunities offered for caucus volunteers, mock caucuses were held by both the Obama and Clinton campaigns, as well as the local party, and to register as a chair one had to undergo numerous trainings with the local party. I believe that the main problem the arose from the caucuses at the precinct level was that a large group of caucus goers had absolutely no idea what precinct they were in.

All told though, before one disparages the state for our lack of preparedness, we were dealing with a situation where 1 out of every 3 registered democrats showed up to caucus, a truly amazing feat when one considers that in the 2004 cycle we had a turnout of less then 10% that size.

Now off to the county convention...

Barring a complete reversal of current trends, next year will be the first time that my generation will be politically aware under a Democratic congress and (god-willing) a Democratic president. For the older members of my cohort, we recall only the end of the Clinton presidency, an executive locked into an impeachment scandal by a congress obsessed over an extra-marital affair with an intern. The younger members of my generation have known only George W. Bush as our president, and for six of the last seven years, a congress whose sworn duty appeared to be to enable him.

After spending some time reading through the rec list here on Kos and seeing some new stuff (the Rep. Harman flare-up), some old but good stuff (EENR), and the obligatory Al Gore diary (not knocking the draft Gore people, I love what you're doing, now Al just needs to hurry up and get in the race) I decided to do something terrifying in the spirit of Halloween.

Join me, as I recall my journey into the a place where the ghosts of reason and sanity rarely make their presence konwn, a land bereft of ideas, dissent, and (GASP) mojo, the very real house of horrors known as RedState!

As a recent college graduate one of the things I dread most is waking up before 10 AM. While I pondered getting a "real" job in the year before I start law school, I instead decided that maybe I should do something that I have always wanted to do; work on a political campaign.

Two months ago I signed up with the Barack Obama campaign here in Reno and have been pounding pavement, making phone calls, and have pretty much used most of my free time talking up Sen. Obama to everyone who would give me the time of day.

As I write this there are currently 4 Al Gore diaries on the recommended list, over 152,000 signatures on this petition, and this story, as well as another piece written up about the draft Gore movement will be in major papers this morning.
