Here’s what’s news this weekend…
- Rush Limbaugh is raising hairs for his suggestion and later clarification about his call (or desire) for there to be riots at this year’s Democratic Convention similar to the riots in 1968.
- Hillary Clinton calls for a Lincoln-Douglas style debate between her and Barack Obama. Â The debate would be 90 minutes, no moderators, just the two candidates in a free flowing one-on-one discussion. Â The Obama Campaign quickly and flatly rejected the idea.
- Yesterday was the White House Correspondence Dinner. Â You can watch President Bush’s speech here (it was pretty funny).
- On a blogger call, McCain portrays Obama as the candidate of Hamas, saying:
I think it’s very clear who Hamas wants to be the next president of the United States. So apparently has Danny Ortega and several others. I think that people should understand that I will be Hamas’s worst nightmare….If senator Obama is favored by Hamas I think people can make judgments accordingly.
Joe Klein responds to McCain’s suggestion here.
- A look at some of HRC’s foreign policy stumbles coupled with the complaint that the press is underreporting an issue to support their narrative. Â The press…underreport something? Â *shock*
More to come, feel free to submit suggestions…
