Democrats on both sides of the Capitol assailed the administration’s handling of the Justice Department yet again on Wednesday, and a House committee recommended contempt charges against Karl Rove, who was President Bush’s top political adviser.

There’s no more “straight talk express” from John McCain, instead he’s signed up for a one way ticket on the “low-road express” with “disciples of Karl Rove from the 2004 campaign and the Bush White House,” heading up the efforts as the conductors of “low-minded and uncivil” political plays and tactics.

Barack Obama’s speech in Berlin, Germany today drew a crowd of “200,000, according to the Obama campaign, which cited local officials.”
He drew warm applause in declaring that the world should be free of nuclear weapons, the war in Iraq should be over, the world should commit to fight global warming, reject torture and welcome immigrants.

Many Americans have dug a hole so deep thanks to corporate bankers and our government’s propensity to bail them out before helping the little people that are losing their homes, that it could be a long while before we’ve seen the end of our collective economic nightmare.
