TWM...dang i need to get off of the farm more...why didn't i know of TWM
DU is always ahead of the curve and have probaly known about this magazine: TWM for a long time... enjoy here is this months coverstory



www.washingtonmonthly.com
WM Mission:
Are you fed up with the imperial Bush White House? The timid Democrats? The spinnable national media? Well, now is the time to join people such as Warren Buffett, Paul Krugman, Garry Trudeau, Molly Ivins, Bill Clinton, and the producers of "60 Minutes" and "The West Wing" who turn to The Washington Monthly each month for journalism that isn't afraid to shake some sense into the system. If, like them, you're hungry for the inside scoop on what's really happening in Washington and what can be done about it, you need our incisive and original coverage.
We're not a subsidiary of some giant corporation, or a mouthpiece for ideologues. We're an independent voice, listened to by insiders and willing to take on sacred cows--liberal and conservative.

Recently, we revealed that President Bush, who claims he doesn't read polls, has a $1 million-a-year polling operation. We explained why Sen. John McCain, if he wants to be president, should switch parties and run as a Democrat. And we showed why the Bush administration is foolish to wage war on terrorism without enlisting our European allies in the fight.

The Washington Monthly ferrets out the important stories you won't find elsewhere--on politics, government, and culture, by some of the brightest writers and commentators in the business, including James Fallows, Nicholas Lemann, Michelle Cottle, Jeff Greenfield, Paul Begala, and Joseph Epstein. And we do it all with style and wit. No wonder The New York Times calls us "a must read," and presidential historian Michael Beschloss says the Monthly "holds up a deadly accurate mirror to the Washington political culture, exposing its hypocrisies, stupidities, and unexpected triumphs."
