Heart pioneer, Dr. Michael DeBakey DEAD at 99

With all the news about Tony Snow, a man who should be getting a lot more attention died today, Dr. Michael DeBakey, seems to be being pushed aside by the mainstream media.  Dr. Michael DeBakey was a pioneer in the field of cardiovascular surgery. A wonderful man who helped everyone from the poor for free to the rich and powerful.  So while you all lament (and I guess rightfully so) about the former White House Press Secretary, please take time to think about a man who actually did save lives.

Snow Blows False Claims of Biden's Support of Surge

Cross-posted from DailyKos

This is Joel from the Biden Blog.  Yesterday, Tony Snow made a comment about Senator Biden that our campaign manager felt warranted a response.  After all, we have seen Senator Biden's positions mischaracterized in the past.  While we know most will see through Mr. Snow's comments, we feel strongly about confronting any distortions of the Senator's position on Iraq.

With that, here is the response from Campaign Manager Luis Navarro, after the jump.

Gore gives Snow some wood in blogger conference call

Via Think Progress:

Tony Snow said today of Al Gore's new book: "I don't know if they're going to do a reprinting of the book to try to get the facts straight. The fact-checkers may have to take a look at it."Gore responded on a blogger conference call: "This book, unlike the President's State of the Union Address, has been fact-checked."Taylor Marsh has full audio of the call.
The conference call on Gore's new book, The Assault On Reason, was an hour long. It sounds like one hell of a book, from the reviews that I have read and from listening to Al Gore talk about it for an hour. And guess what, not a single "horserace" question-- imagine that Diane Sawyer! Gore was loose, lucid, and engaging, chuckling throughout the conversation while the bloggers asked questions. No need for me to ramble on about it, listen to the audio (mp3).
