Report: White House altered drilling safety report - Yahoo! News:
"WASHINGTON – The Interior Department's inspector general says the White House edited a drilling safety report in a way that made it falsely appear that scientists and experts supported the administration's six-month ban on new drilling.
The inspector general says the editing changes resulted 'in the implication that the moratorium recommendation had been peer reviewed.' But it hadn't been. The scientists were only asked to review new safety measures for offshore drilling."

Jon Stewart points finger at media - James Hohmann and Marin Cogan - POLITICO.com:

"Most of those pouring into the Mall Saturday appeared to be younger than 35, and the signs they carried showed a decidedly left-wing bent: 'I hope this isn't a trap,' 'I masturbate to Christine O'Donnell,' 'Communism was a red herring.'
Most signs fit with the happy-go-lucky ethos of the rally, but others were crude. One sign had Hitler mustaches on pictures of Sarah Palin, Eric Cantor, Glenn Beck and John Boehner. The message said, “Afraid yet?” This is particularly insulting to Cantor, who is Jewish and in line to become House Majority Leader if Republicans win next week."

Those old battles have been eclipsed by a new struggle between two competing visions of the country's future. In one, America will continue to be an exceptional nation organized around the principles of free enterprise -- limited government, a reliance on entrepreneurship and rewards determined by market forces. In the other, America will move toward European-style statism grounded in expanding bureaucracies, a managed economy and large-scale income redistribution. These visions are not reconcilable.

"President Barack Obama is trying to ride the wave of anti-incumbency by taking on an unpopular politician steeped in the partisan ways of Washington.
It doesn’t matter that George W. Bush left office 16 months ago.
The White House’s mid-term election strategy is becoming clear – pit the Democrats of 2010 against the Republicans circa 2006, 2008 and 2009, including Bush.
It’s a lot to ask an angry, finicky electorate to sort out. And even if Obama can rightfully make the case that the economy took a turn for the worse under Bush's watch, he's already made it - in 2008 and repeatedly in 2009.
It’s not clear that voters still want to hear it."

'I did not appreciate what I considered to be a ridiculous spectacle during the congressional hearings into this matter,' he intoned. 'You had executives of BP and Transocean and Halliburton falling over each other to point the finger of blame at somebody else.'"

U.S. exempted BP's Gulf of Mexico drilling from environmental impact study:

"The decision by the department's Minerals Management Service (MMS) to give BP's lease at Deepwater Horizon a 'categorical exclusion' from the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) on April 6, 2009 -- and BP's lobbying efforts just 11 days before the explosion to expand those exemptions -- show that neither federal regulators nor the company anticipated an accident of the scale of the one unfolding in the gulf."

Inside the Beltway - Washington Times:

"The term 'tea-bagger' is like uttering the 'n' word, some say. Though he aspires to promote civility, evidence has surfaced that President Obama has added 'tea-bagger' to his public lexicon, though it's considered a cheap and tawdry insult by 'tea party' activists. Watchdogs at Americans for Tax Reform (ATR) barked when they saw the proof, tucked in a sneak peak of Newsweek columnist Jonathan Alter's new book, 'The Promise: President Obama, Year One,' to be released May 18. Indeed, it appears the president joined certain partisan critics and the liberal media, and took the tea-bag plunge"

The Post and Courier - Are you becoming a fattist? - Charleston SC - postandcourier.com: "Some people are racists, some are elitists. Some people are fattists.
While you've never considered yourself a person who discriminates against others, you might be in danger of becoming a 'fattist.'
A fattist is a term coined to describe people who are prejudiced against overweight people.
You know, people who complain about obese people taking up too much room on airplanes, lapping over from their seat into yours.
They also roll their eyes when they see overweight people in line at the grocery store with a basket full of Twinkies and powdered doughnuts.
If you are a fattist, you might be the type who always points out fat people in the mall, or wonders out loud how they poured themselves into those jeans."

If you haven't managed to score a copy of the May/June 2010 edition of Capitol File magazine (typically flanked on every table or bathroom at any D.C. social function) you'll notice the cover girl Nancy Pelosi looking particularly young.
Celebrity plastic surgeon Dr. Ayman Hakki of Luxxery Medical Boutique in Waldorf, Md., said although he believes Pelosi has had work done (specifically Botox of the frown lines, fat injections, a mini face-lift), the image is not the product of additional plastic surgery."

"Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) accused Republicans of being “anti-American” by demanding changes to a Wall Street regulation bill before it's debated openly on the Senate floor.
Speaking to reporters just before the Democrats’ third attempt to break a GOP filibuster on the issue, Reid said that Republicans “keep stalling, keep stalling.” He charged Republicans with trying to pick apart the bill before it even comes to the floor where both sides could offer amendments and openly debate the measure.
“Even some Democrats would like to offer amendments on this bill,” Reid said. “All of this talk from Republicans about wanting to do something about this bill before it gets on the floor is really anti-Senate and anti-American.”"

Woodsman featured on 'American Loggers' dies at 45: "BANGOR, Maine -- A Maine woodsman and skidder operator who had a supporting role on Discovery Channel's 'American Loggers' has died.
The Maine medical examiner's office has confirmed the death Friday night of David McLaughlin of Milo. He was 45 and had suffered from a severe diabetic condition.
Rudy Pelletier, co-owner of Gerald Pelletier Inc. in Maine, said the amiable, hardworking logger was sidelined from time to time because of his diabetes.
McLaughlin's condition was diagnosed when he was 14, but he maintained a sense of humor that sometimes came through on the TV series.
'American Loggers' focuses on the Pelletier family's logging operations. Rudy Pelletier tells the Bangor Daily News that viewers were touched by McLaughlin's struggles."

The “divisive and reprehensible language” that Rep. Carson is referring to is his claim that while he left the Cannon office building on March 20 with Rep. John Lewis, they were verbally assaulted by health care protesters hurling the “N-word” at them. He said the scene was so hostile he “expected rocks to come” when he was coming out of Cannon."

PRUDEN: It's time to play the race card - Washington Times:

"The Democratic National Committee released a video clip Monday of the president rousing his troops with what Politico, the Capitol Hill political paper, calls with artful euphemism, 'unusual demographic frankness.' The auguries for November do not look good, the president concedes, and he wants 'young people, African-Americans, Latinos and women who powered our victory in 2008 [to] stand together once again.' Many of these 'surge' voters cast their first ballots in 2008 and then ignored pleas to turn out for gubernatorial races in New Jersey and Virginia (or that famous Senate race in Massachusetts) and the Democrats took a licking.
No candidate, Democrat or Republican, would take the risk — real and even frightening — of drawing the race card unless absolutely necessary, of course, 'absolutely necessary' defined as the occasion when his survival is at stake. Mr. Obama's survival is not yet at stake, but if a calamity like the big blowout of '94 falls on the Democrats again this year the president's prospects for re-election in 2012 would dim considerably. Now's the time for unusual demographic frankness of the kind that the Barack Obama of 2008 so eloquently denounced with word if not always in deed."

Rush Limbaugh: Liberals and the Violence Card - WSJ.com: "By RUSH LIMBAUGH
The latest liberal meme is to equate skepticism of the Obama administration with a tendency toward violence. That takes me back 15 years ago to the time President Bill Clinton accused 'loud and angry voices' on the airwaves (i.e., radio talk-show hosts like me) of having incited Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh. What self-serving nonsense. Liberals are perfectly comfortable with antigovernment protest when they're not in power."

A Congressional Budget Office analysis released Thursday said the average cost of the penalty will be slightly more than $1,000 apiece in 2016."

'We are over-taxed as it is,' Doris said bluntly."

Impeach the president?

2010-03-19T10:36:00.000-04:00

KUHNER: Impeach the president? - Washington Times: "The Democrats are assaulting the very pillars of our democracy. As the debate on Obamacare reaches the long, painful end, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is confronting a political nightmare. She may not have the 216 votes necessary to pass the Senate's health care bill in the House.
Hence, Mrs. Pelosi and her congressional Democratic allies are seriously considering using a procedural ruse to circumvent the traditional constitutional process. Led by Rep. Louise M. Slaughter, New York Democrat and chairman of the House Rules Committee, the new plan - called the 'Slaughter Solution' - is not to pass the Senate version on an up-or-down vote. Rather, it is to have the House 'deem' that the legislation was passed and then have members vote directly on a series of 'sidecar' amendments to fix the things it does not like."

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Gore Attaches Global Warming as Cause to Last Weekend's Storm in Northeast: "If there’s a drought – it’s global warming. When there’s a hurricane – it’s global warming. If there are heavy snows or even blizzards – it’s somehow global warming. And amazingly, the latest round of rainy and windy weather in the Northeast, well that’s consistent with this phenomenon as well, so says former Vice President Al Gore.

Gore, the self-anointed climate change alarmist-in-chief, told supporters on a March 15 conference call that severe weather in certain regions of the country could be attributed to carbon in the atmosphere – including the recent rash of rainy weather."

Pelosi: 'Once we kick through this door,' more reform will follow Washington Examiner: "If you have any doubt that the Democratic leadership of the House views passing the current health care reform bill as the beginning, not the end, of the process of creating a national government health care system, just note what Speaker Nancy Pelosi told a group of bloggers on Monday. 'My biggest fight has been between those who wanted to do something incremental and those who wanted to do something comprehensive,' Pelosi said, according to an account by Washington Post reform advocate Ezra Klein. 'We won that fight, and once we kick through this door, there'll be more legislation to follow.'
But since the current bill is unpopular, and Pelosi at the moment does not have enough Democratic, much less Republican, votes to pass it, the door she will be kicking through is the back door. Pelosi told the bloggers she favors using the 'self-executing rule' strategy in which the House would pass the Senate health care bill without going on the record as specifically voting for it. 'I like it,' Pelosi said of the scheme, 'because people don't have to vote on the Senate bill.' The strategy of passing the Senate bill while avoiding a direct vote, writes Klein, 'is all about plausible deniability for House members who don't want to vote for the Senate bill.'"
