might as well start with woodward. another turgid display of fourth estatemanship.

digbys take:
Woodward, like Broder and Sally and Richard Cohen and Cokie and the rest of the moribund DC establishment, are obsessed with the social and personal activities of their King (and their own relationships to him) and have absolutely no interest or insight into the corrupt, depraved, malevolent political force the Republican Washington establishment has become. (It's hardball politics!) As long as they are getting their due deference and nobody's slip is showing, they are more than happy to keep any behavior that the unwashed masses might find unpalatable under wraps --- things like war or institutionalized character assassination. The only scandals worth reporting are "too many marts" and "trashing the place" --- behaviors that imply the courtier's social mores are unimportant. Tsk tsk tsk.

Notes from NOLA
17 years ago I had this tribute album. Now it’s hagiography, which is to say a Hollywood movie. Network tonight.

Prince Achmed was on Turner Classic Movies. Worth keeping an eye peeled for. Beautiful stuff.
74 degrees. im an outdoorsman. which is to say yes the windows are open.
Holy shit. Charlie Rose and Chalabi on PBS. It's a battle of the titans. They both believe themselves so much.
i thought directv should carry one of the satellite radio systems. and now it does.
This is a president who even in the best of times is insular, out of touch, and completely unwilling to have alternative points of view brought to him. Now, according to administration sources he's kicked out everyone else in his Oval Treehouse except for his mom, and three people who remind him of his mom? Shudder.

The grassroots response to the new Wal-Mart documentary has been incredible. Thanks to you and our many partners, "Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price" will debut next week in over 7,000 living rooms and community centers across the country—a true groundswell.

Super sped up satellite feed of the entire hurricane season, with each storm named and its' path traced. Wow.
just watched an aol pre-view of tonights gilmore girls. Jess confronts Rory about "not being you" and that her rich boyfriend Logan is a dick. looks like a good one. 8pm on the WB. oh yeah.
spent a large part of my weekend watching the two-DVD deluxe set for the superb documentary "The Corporation." It includes the 144-minute feature, plus tons of extras, including extended interviews with both critics and defenders of corporations (Noam Chomsky, Howard Zinn, Naomi Klein, but also Miton Friedman, and the CEOs of Shell Oil and Goodyear).

The film explores the history of the corporation in the modern world, from the creation of the fictional "legal person" in Roman law to the current situation in which many experts agree that the corporation has become the dominant institution in our lives, supassing the Church, the empire, and the nation-state in power, wealth, and influence.
