The Obamamobile: Drive as I say, not as I drive

Click here for update: Citibail!
Where are our fiscal conservative watchdogs in Washington? Bloomberg reports that analysts are confident a rumored Citigroup bailout is being hatched.

Who heckled Attorney General Michael Mukasey?
Before Attorney General Michael Mukasey collapsed during his Federalist Society speech on Thursday night, someone in the audience disrupted the remarks.

Bush and the minority lending shakedown
Everyone knows about the Fannie/Freddie/Democrat minority lending racket. But as I’ve pointed out several times over the last year, the Bush administration was also guilty of pandering to the crony racial racketeers and exacerbating the mortgage crisis. (Background here, here, and here.)
