Rip & Read Blog Podcast for December 11, 2004 (4.92MB; download) -- Political readings from the blogosphere.
Here's what I Ripped & Read today:
NannyGate at The Office of Homeland Security
Apparently Bernard Kerek had some skeletons in his closet that the FBI background check did not catch. Newsweek told the White House last night that there were a few issues in Kerek's background that they might want to look into. Here's what they said:On Friday night, Kerik abruptly informed the White House that we was withdrawing from the nominating process, citing potential problems with the immigration and tax status of a former nanny. âI am convinced that, for personal reasons, moving forward would not be in the best interests of your administration, the Department of Homeland Security or the American people,â Kerik said in a letter to President Bush.The left's blogosphere is triumphant. Here's Steve Soto of The Left Coaster on the subject: Yes, just several days after Bush called him one of the best law enforcement officials in the nation, and after the White House did a thorough background check on him so that he could be announced quickly as Tom Ridge's replacement at Homeland Security, Bernard Kerik withdrew tonight from consideration, because of nanny problems. Looking at his record, those were the least of his ethical trangressions.
As Newsweek noted tonight, it was left to the magazine to bring to the White House's attention tonight that Kerik ran afoul of the law for not paying condominium maintenance fees, and having a bench warrant issued against him. Plus he filed for bankruptcy several years ago. So much for the White House background check operation. Just what the hell does the FBI do anyway, if a newsmagazine does a better job checking someone out than they do?
In truth, Kerik was a corrupt GOP politician who happened to have a badge. Everything you need to know about why he was your typical Bush government servant is here, thanks to the Center for American Progress.
It's sad to see that the ineptitude the Administration demonstrates in Iraq and foreign policy in general has spread to the most basic tasks like background checks and assembling a cabinet of bootlicking cronies. As Glenn says, "Ouch".
In the "He's Not Dead Yet" category, Brian Doherty in Reason's Hit Run blog noticed a desparately written article in Slate.It's Over, Tim. It's Over. Let's Go Home.
One of the more bizarre (perhaps intentionally so) "I can't believe this is happening" pieces from a Kerry partisan (and self-proclaimed Electoral College bore) Timothy Noah over at Slate. (You might have hoped such pieces were a forgotten relic of November 2004, but alas, no.)
Even though there has never been more than one faithless elector (who votes against his state's popular vote) in any election, Noah notes that Kerry would only need, um, 18 of them to still pull it out!
But 18 is a very petty number for a man of Noah's infinite sense of opportunites barely missed:If John Kerry had gotten 118,776 more votes in Ohio, he would have claimed Ohio's 20 electors, giving him 272 electors to Bush's 266. For want of 118,776 votes, John Kerry lost the presidency. I'm not going to pretend I don't still brood about this.Not entirely sure if I'm laughing with you or at you, Mr. Noah, but I'm laughing.
He's dead. Trust me.
Sean Hackorth has some better advice for the Democrats in his American Mind blog.
Dean, M.D. and the Democrats' Future
It's deja vu all over again among the Democrats: [From the Hill:]The race to be the next chairman of the Democratic National Committee is shaping up as a retread of Januaryâs Iowa caucuses, with former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean emerging as the early front-runner and the Democratic establishment furiously scrambling for a candidate to beat him.As much as I'd like to see Howard Dean, M.D. running the DNC it won't help the party better connect to all voters. Virulent anti-Bush tirades may satisfy a gloomy political base, but it's not the foundation for future electo Selected by: Charlie Quidnunc [ stations ], Sun, 12 Dec 2004 03:32:36 UTC

The Gillmor Gang: November 12, 2004 (27.12MB; download) -- (The Gillmor Gang on IT Conversations)
This week The Gang starts off wondering about Chris Stone's departure from Novell, which he was steering back towards the Linux market. And what about Sun? Are they serious about Linux on the desktop, or is that just a poker chip, a placemark for their real move into software-as-service?
Speaking of software-as-service, The Gang dives head-first into Google. Jon says Gmail is "seductively powerful," but is Google on the path to becoming The Borg? Will we have to turn to turn to (gasp) Microsoft to save us? Or will Google continue to be our best buddy?
The show concludes with a discussion of podcasting: its potential business models and its ultimate effect on Big Media.
Michael Vizard, editor-in-chief of CRN Magazine, joins The Gang
this week. Selected by: Phil Windley [ stations ], Fri, 19 Nov 2004 01:35:05 UTC
