Plenty of doubts about Cain's candidacy? From whom, AP reporters? Who cares what they think, they're all going to vote for Obama in 2012 and everybody knows it. These media pukes need a dose of reality: they could affect a Democratic primary if there was one, because Democrats believe what they say. But Republicans hate their guts, and assume that anything they say is designed only to help Democrats. What else can one conclude about "allegations" where the accuser is unnamed and the supposed acts of harassment are unspecified? If there's a better definition of "unwarranted but mean-spirited smear," I don't know what it is.
PATCO was "irreplaceable" too.
Why are you helping Wagman secure his dream job at The New York Times? This is exactly the sort of investigative journalism they seek.
James O'Keefe, white courtesy telephone please. James O'Keefe.
NPR will need a new president/CEO. I know just the guy: Juan Williams.
This whole article is stupid, and the Democrats' rhetoric is worse. If the debt ceiling is not raised, the worst thing that happens -- and many would call it the best thing -- is that the government could not borrow any more money. That does not mean the U.S. will default on its debt, nor does it mean that the government will shut down. It just means that the bureaucrats will have to figure out how to get by with only 75% of the money they thought they were going to have. Interest payments, bond redemptions, and the like can go on as scheduled. Social Security can continue to send out checks. Grants for studying the mating habits of the purple-crested louse, not so much.
I'm not sure that this is a good thing. Until one of these SuperBlue states goes bankrupt with an unemployment rate higher than 25%, liberals will still be able to con others into supporting their policies. The ideology cannot be defeated until some of group of them, somewhere, finally drives enough business out to where entire cities are being boarded up and abandoned, and their government runs out of Other People's Money. Detroit is almost there, but Detroit isn't large enough to convince people. Liberals will have to lay waste to New York or California before everyone finally 'gets it' that you can't run a government on unicorns and rainbows.
Many people believe that the "global warming/climate change" doctrine amounts to a religious faith. Now here come the believers to tell us that the gods are punishing us with volcanoes and earthquakes. Could it be more clear that this whole thing is a hoax?
In whose reality is there a "reinvigorated" president Obama who has a "new image" as a builder of compromise? This guy has been in office two years; his media sycophants can"t just declare that he has a 'new image' and make it so. His party lost more than 60 seats in the House... No president has done worse since 1928. If that 'reinvigorated' him, he is one weird dude.
We haven't seen this much chutzpah in the Blatant Lying category since Clinton was president. C'mon, his FCC just made one major power grab, the EPA is doing one a week, the FDA is moving to make us all eat our spinach, and here comes this clown on the stage to SAY that he's "reducing burdensome regulations."
So he gets a headline that SAYS he's doing X, a bunch of people who don't pay very much attention assume that he's doing X, and meanwhile Policy Y moves ahead full speed. It's government by deceit, executed by professional liars, and abetted by a Washington press corps that wants the liars to win.
