Lots of little things taking place right now.
The creeps at the Federal Election Commission are pushing to make blogging about elections a crime. Mostly liberals are on the FEC so it’s a pretty clear slap at the right wingers that exposed Kerry and Rather last time around. I guess they don’t realize that this is the kind of change that can come back to bite them later. Not to mention trampling on those First Amendment rights that used to be the cornerstone of their rhetoric.
On that front the current push by Republicans to end filibusters in the Senate is not the smartest of moves either. Not only does that fly in the face of the Constitution, but some day they are going to be back in the minority and need a tool to stop the Democrats. If they just look back to the early days of the Clinton era it was the only thing they had going for them.
Chew on that for a while.
More to come later.
