Karl Rove knows African forgeries...

Karl Rove: Obama Learning The Realities Of Governing, The Hard Way But Not All Of It Is Good

Obama's Flip-Flops on military issues, Karl Rove says in an opinion piece for the Wall Street Journal, are evidence that he is learning the difference between campaigning and governing. But, he warns, not all of Obama's position reversals are good for the country.

These reversals [on military issues] are both praiseworthy and evidence that, when it comes to national security, being briefed on terror threats as president is a lot different than placating MoveOn.org and Code Pink activists as a candidate. The realities of governing trump the realities of campaigning.

We are also seeing Mr. Obama reverse himself on the domestic front, but this time in a manner that will do more harm than good.

Introducing the next Senator from KY, Jack Conway

(crossposted at DailyKos, go recommend it!)

I'm thrilled to report that the next Senator from the state of Kentucky has just announced his candidacy this morning. Our state's 11-year nightmare of Jim Bunning is about to end in November 2010, and here is the man that will end it.

Meet KY Attorney General Jack Conway.

As you can see in his announcement video on his site, Conway will have his official in-person rally to kick off his campaign Monday in Louisville. I can't go into all of the details now, but let's just say that Ben Chandler, Crit Luallen, John Yarmuth, and about every big KY Democrat past and present whose name isn't Steve Beshear will be there.

What do Glenn Beck, Karl Rove and Dan Mongiardo have in common?

What do you call a person that speaks at a convention with Karl Rove, Ollie North, Mitt Romney and Glenn Beck as they they smear Democrats as people who will come into your home and take away your guns? For an organization that makes its living off of smearing Democrats and electing Republicans?

Dan Mongiardo.

To view all of his co-presenter friends, go here.
