abu gonzales: hacktacular

* "It's actually pretty amazing. President Bush took pretty much his entire Social Security phase-out plan from last year and put it into next year's budget without telling anyone." (link)

* it was amazing that specter refused to allow the video of Bush lying (about snoopgate) in the hearings. what a hack.

* speaking of hacktacular, abu gonzales is an exquisite specimen.

* josh marshall's The Daily Muck quotes liberally from the BradBlog post about Hastert and Sibel! Great news! the story has gone prime-time already.

* "Now the Guam Judiciary is trying to recover some of the money paid to Abramoff through Hills. They wrote Hills that they want $20,000 back (a retainer fee that apparently went undocumented - oops) and also want all of the documents related to Hills' funneling of $324,000 to Abramoff." (link)

* via froomkin: "Shaila Dewan and Elisabeth Bumiller write in the New York Times: "Of the four presidents, Mr. Clinton was the obvious favorite of the crowd. A huge cheer went up as he reached the open area near Mrs. King's coffin, and the crowd gave him a thunderous standing ovation when he approached the microphone with his wife, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton.""
ten bucks says that Bumiller didnt write that sentence.
