Jamie Rubin on CNN ripping Dan Synor a new one
GO Jamie!!!

Calling the Republicans "disgraceful," accuses them of engaging in "cheap shots."

9. Jamie's "Boss" Is Better...Holbrooke
A lot of this has to do with who the network calls and whose available. I've seen a lot of Jamie & Holbrooke in recent weeks on Wolf and hope to see more of them.

But I also know how important these people, along with Bill Richardson, are to the infrastructure of the Kerry campaign right now.

Sadly, these are big picture guys...not soundbiters. They can't yell fire like the GOOP spinners. I enjoy watching Holbrook bitch-slap Wolfie around, but I know I am in the minority when I see this.

8. Jamie Rubin is a MAAAAAAAN, baby
You may remember his lying escapades from the State Department, circa 1999.

I've always hated that fucking liar.

12. Jamie Rubin...Mr. Christiane Armandpour
He was the spokesman at the State Dept. during the Albright days and then went on to be Christiane's significant other.

He handled a lot of the press briefings during the Kosovo operation and would be a key part of a Kerry foreign policy team along with Richard Holbrooke and Dennis Roth. These people have the contacts and the ability to get us out of the Iraq mess.

7. Not for nothing
But Jamie Rubin WAS the Dan Senor of the Kosovo campaign. His press briefings from the State Department were as mendacious as can be.

In any case, I'm glad he's tearing into Flat-top McJackass today.
