Barometer: Heatwave Edition

August 7, 2007 by White House Chronicle


Tom Tancredo: Bomb Mots

He would deter Islamic militants’ nuclear attacks on the United States by threatening to bomb Mecca and Medina. Mexicans should start practicing duck-and-cover. Foul/Falling

Joe Biden: Talking Guy

Good new book, but what a title to frighten away the punters. Also Joe knows he talks too much, but he can’t shut up. Something to do with his childhood stutter? Rain/Cloudy

Barack Obama: Treading Water

He’s in the foreign policy deep-end, and Hillary Clinton is trying to push him under. Don’t worry, Barack, she’s the one who voted for the war. Obama wins on points. Fair/Rising

John Edwards: Our Crowd

Poor little rich boy is trying to be a populist. But he’s not gotten through to the minimum-wage crowd. They suspect a trick. Only his hairdresser knows for sure. Rain/Cloudy

Rudy Giuliani: Magic Date

Did you know he was mayor of New York City on 9/11? If you didn’t know, he was mayor of NYC on 9/11, you should know he was on deck on 9/11. Let the angels sing: “Giuliani was mayor of The Big Bagel on 9/11.” Sing we now. Foul/Falling

Mitt Romney: Moving Target

Mitt has flipped to please the base, and the base hasn’t responded. All that Massachusetts liberalism leaves it mark. Rain/Cloudy

The Energy Executive and the Homeless: Sleeping on Concrete

The Energy Executive and the Homeless: Sleeping on Concrete

Llewellyn King

The British call it sleeping rough. We call it for what it is: homelessness. It starts the day when all the support systems — fragile as they often are — fail. When there is no home to go to; no bed to sleep in, no meal to eat, no toilet to use, no place to […]

Santa’s Gift to the Democrats — Will They Break It While Opening It?

Santa’s Gift to the Democrats — Will They Break It While Opening It?

Llewellyn King

The Democrats have no need to fret about what they’ll get for Christmas this year. Their worry shouldn’t be the gift, but rather how they choose to open it. The gift is global warming. Don’t call it climate change; that fuzzies the issue. Call it for what it is: global warming. It isn’t change but […]

How to Attack Cancer, Other Things With Data Mining

How to Attack Cancer, Other Things With Data Mining

Llewellyn King

The word is exaptation. It will change the future, and it may save your life. It is a word traditionally used in evolutionary biology. But now in scientific and high-tech circles, it is used to describe finding and adapting processes and compounds to uses for which they were not originally intended. In biology, exaptation is […]

Warren’s Weakness — She Always Takes the Bait

Warren’s Weakness — She Always Takes the Bait

Llewellyn King

The Democratic deep state — it is not made up of Democrats in the bureaucracies but rather those who make up the core of the party — is in agony. Solid, middle-of-the-road, fad-proof Democrats are not happy. They are the ones most likely to have thrown their support early to Joe Biden, and who now […]
