SPINNING PLANT CLOSINGS
"Democrats, despite their being just as surprised as LaTourette and Ryan. Theirs is a partisan silence, with their opinions known only because this reporter asked.
Would Democrats have been so quiet if President George W. Bush's administration had announced that no plants would close, only to be boldly contradicted within 24 hours?"
And how would our "unbiased" MSM have responded?

CONVERSATIONAL SUGGESTIONS for Pelosi and the troops.
CONVERSATIONAL SUGGESTIONS for Pelosi and the troops.
Nancy Pelosi’s waterboarding questions No. 67 and 68. “These are just a few of the questions Pelosi needs to address; I am sure my Capitol Hill colleagues have their own. Until the Speaker does a better job of answering them — in the words of the Southwest commercial — she might not be free to move about the country without being hounded.”"

Soda Tax Weighed to Pay for Health Care
Soda Tax Weighed to Pay for Health Care
"Senate leaders are considering new federal taxes on soda and other sugary drinks to help pay for an overhaul of the nation's health-care system."
The first few waves of the giant tsunami of taxes planned by the demo-socialists and their Great Leader.

Video Warning of Pitfalls of Consumption Is a Hit in Schools - NYTimes.com
Video Warning of Pitfalls of Consumption Is a Hit in Schools - NYTimes.com: "Which is one reason “The Story of Stuff,” a 20-minute video about the effects of human consumption, has become a sleeper hit in classrooms across the nation.
The video is a cheerful but brutal assessment of how much Americans waste, and it has its detractors. But it has been embraced by teachers eager to supplement textbooks that lag behind scientific findings on climate change and pollution. And many children who watch it take it to heart: riding in the car one day with his parents in Tacoma, Wash., Rafael de la Torre Batker, 9, was worried about whether it would be bad for the planet if he got a new set of Legos."

DIJONGATE: What have we learned?
"but rather that MSNBC and other major media are no longer in the news business. They’re doing public relations for the Obama administration and the Democratic Party. . . . Obviously, reporters didn’t think ‘Dijon mustard’ fit the narrative the White House wanted, and so they fudged the quote — and NBC even edited its own video — to omit the offensive French phrase. Jacobson pointed this out, and it was like showing a Rorschach inkblot to Charles Manson.”"

Barack Obama Prepares Country For Liberal Newspaper Bailout
Barack Obama Prepares Country For Liberal Newspaper Bailout
"The notable thing in context is that Obama primarily in the speech talks about newspapers, with other media outlets being mentioned second (collectively), or when making a joke (for example, noting that Jefferson hadn’t seen Cable News.) It would appear from the speech clearly that Obama holds the mainstream media, and particularly newspapers above online media. It is clear that when he talked about “tough and vibrant media” that he is referring to mainstream media, and newspapers in particular.
He concludes with the line that the problems in the media industry are “problems worth solving,” which sounds an awful lot like the final word that there’s going to be a newspaper bailout.
Last week White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said there would be no bailout for newspapers. "
More of our tax dollars for "TARP" $$$ to the failed liberal newspapers of the past?

What Republicans need is a mutiny
What Republicans need is a mutiny
"Two major debates face conservative Republicans about the future of the party. The first, rekindled by Sen. Arlen Specter's switch to the Democratic Party, is whether the GOP should move further leftward. The second is whether conservatives should tone down their advocacy on social issues. History is on the side of outspoken conservatives in both debates."
We've already had a mutiny and the party leadership is holed up under the poopdeck and has no idea they've lost control of the ship.
The problem is that no one else has control of the ship....

Obama Likes Wanda Sykes Joke About Rush Limbaugh — ‘I Hope His Kidneys Fail’
Yet, delicate libs whine when Americans (and Rush) work for and hope that Obama and his socialist agenda fail.
The sad, ignorant libs in the liberal MSM seem to have forgotten the lib's support of those murderous monsters who would kill our brave troops.

Cheney on Powell v Limbaugh: 'I'd Go with Rush Limbaugh'
Cheney on Powell v Limbaugh: 'I'd Go with Rush Limbaugh'
"From the Sunday, May 10 Face the Nation:
BOB SCHIEFFER: Rush Limbaugh said the other day the that the party would probably be better off if Colin Powell left and just became a Democrat. Colin Powell said Republicans would be better off if they didn't have Rush Limbaugh speaking for them. Where do you come down?
DICK CHENEY: Well, if I had to choose, in terms of being a Republican, I'd go with Rush Limbaugh I think. My take on it was Colin had already left the party. I didn't know he was still a Republican.
SCHIEFFER: So you think that he's not a Republican?
CHENEY: I just noted he endorsed the Democratic candidate for President this time, Barack Obama. I assume that that's some indication of his loyalty and his interests.
SCHIEFFER: And you said you take Rush Limbaugh over Colin Powell?
CHENEY: I would, politically."
Too funny!
Uber lib Schieffer doesn't realize that a democrat supporter is a democrat.
And I'll take Rush over most GOPers any day.
