Transparency in gov’t–The Cheney Deposition finally comes to light
Bottom line: he “can’t remember” anything . . .
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2009/11/02/politics/main5491257.shtml
On 72 occasions, according to the 28-page FBI summary, Cheney equivocated to the FBI during his lengthy May 2004 interview, saying he could not be certain in his answers to questions about matters large and small in the Plame controversy.
The Cheney interview reflects a team of prosecutors and FBI agents trying to find out whether the leaks of Plame’s CIA identity were orchestrated at the highest level of the White House and carried out by, among others, I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby, Cheney’s chief of staff.
Among the most basic questions for Cheney in the Plame probe: How did Libby find out that the wife of Bush administration war critic Joseph Wilson worked at the CIA?
Libby’s own handwritten notes suggest Libby found out from Cheney. When Libby discovered Cheney’s reference to Plame and the CIA in his notes – notes that Libby knew he would soon have to turn over to the FBI – the chief of staff went to the vice president, probably in late September or early October 2003.
Sharing the information with Cheney was in itself an unusual step at the outset of a criminal investigation in which potential White House witnesses were being ordered by their superiors not to talk to each other about the Plame matter.
“It turns out that I have a note that I had heard about” Plame’s CIA identity “from you,” Libby says he told the vice president.
And what did Cheney say in response? Fitzgerald asked Libby in front of a federal grand jury six months later.
“He didn’t say much,” Libby replied. “You know, he said something about ‘From me?’ something like that, and tilted his head, something he does commonly, and that was that.”
Cheney’s version of the conversation, as related in the FBI interview summary?
Cheney “cannot recall Scooter Libby telling him how he first heard of Valerie Wilson. It is possible Libby may have learned about Valerie Wilson’s employment from the vice president … but the vice president has no specific recollection of such a conversation.”
On another basic point, Cheney simply refused to answer.
Fitzgerald had gathered evidence that Cheney apparently persuaded President George W. Bush to hurriedly declassify portions of a prewar National Intelligence Estimate on weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. The declassification was followed by Libby providing the information to a New York Times reporter while simultaneously talking to reporters about Plame’s CIA identity.
As Fitzgerald pressed the issue in the FBI interview, Cheney refused to confirm any discussion with Bush, saying that he must refrain from commenting about any private or privileged conversations he may have had with the president.
It was an instance of Libby, who had testified two months earlier to a federal grand jury, being more forthcoming than Cheney.

Presidential oath of office taken by President Obama
“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”
Presidential spokesperson (on behalf of President Obama) dialogues about the mandantory healthcare provision:
“But here would be the first time where our government would demand that people buy something that they may or may not want,” Hatch told CNSNews.com. “And, you know, if that’s the case, then we didn’t need a ‘Cash for Clunkers,’ all we had to do is have the federal government say you all got to buy new cars, no matter how tough it is on you. You know, they could require you to buy anything. And that isn’t America. That’s not freedom. That’s not constitutionally sound. Now, there may be some gimmicky way that they can do this, but I can’t think of a gimmicky way that would be constitutionally justified.”
Gibbs was asked by a reporter on Monday: “Have White House lawyers looked at this issue? Has this been examined in any way?”
Gibbs responded: “Not that I know of. I don’t think it has gotten to the point where anybody questions the legitimacy of it.”
The reporter followed up: “Well, Orrin Hatch questions the legitimacy of it.” Gibbs quipped, “Well, you should ask him.”
The reporter asked, “Do you not feel there is any concern at all about whether it is constitutional for Congress to impose a mandate?”
“No,” Gibbs said. ”
So it goes.

“WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Democrats who control a key U.S. Senate panel said they would begin debating a climate change bill on Tuesday, despite a planned boycott by minority Republicans who are demanding more study of the issue.
Senator Barbara Boxer, the California Democrat who chairs the Environment and Public Works Committee, wants to have a bill approved by her panel before an international summit on global warming convenes in Copenhagen in December.
The wrangling over when debate can start illustrated how difficult it will be to get any bill to the Senate floor and passed into law before year end, complicating President Barack Obama’s hopes that the United States will take a leading role in Copenhagen.
Saying she was attempting to address Republican concerns, Boxer told reporters Tuesday’s work session would be suspended in the afternoon so experts from the Environmental Protection Agency could come before the committee to answer technical questions — from Democrats or Republicans — about the bill.
Boxer also said she would extend a deadline for Republicans to notify her of amendments they might pursue to the bill.
“We’re not going to rush this through,” she said, adding she hoped Republicans “return to the table.”
Senator Richard Lugar, a moderate Senate Republican whose support Democrats would like to win, warned that “it would not be constructive” if Boxer pushed the climate bill through the environment panel during a Republican boycott.
A committee Democratic aide, who asked not to be identified, cited Senate rules saying that Tuesday’s committee session could occur if at least 10 of the 19 members attend. Democrats control 12 of the seats.
Republicans had hoped to stop the work session with a boycott by all seven of their members, citing a different committee rule stating at least two Republicans must be present for the panel to conduct business.
We all pay taxes we may or may not want to pay, bunch of whiners.

What’s the difference?? Mandated insurance is mandated insurance…

That is a state issued mandate. and as you imply. has an exemption if you are willing and able to be self insured. In addition, the car insurance mandate is to take advantage of the priviledge of driving on a government financed road.
Not even close to the same situation with healthcare. The current bill provides no such exemption, and has nothing to do with taking advantage of a government financed anything. Insteaed, it is imposed for the condition of merely being alive.

He has also given away millions more to finance the nonprofit he founded, the Alliance for Climate Protection, and to another group, the Climate Project, which trains people to present the slide show that was the basis of his documentary “An Inconvenient Truth.”

Shortage of Vaccine Poses Political Test for Obama
By SHERYL GAY STOLBERG
Published: October 28, 2009
WASHINGTON — The moment a novel strain of swine flu emerged in Mexico last spring, President Obama instructed his top advisers that his administration would not be caught flat-footed in the event of a deadly pandemic. Now, despite months of planning and preparation, a vaccine shortage is threatening to undermine public confidence in government, creating a very public test of Mr. Obama’s competence.
—-
Ms. Sebelius has said she was relying on estimates from manufacturers, who reported in July that 120 million doses of vaccine would be available by the end of this month — a figure that was later lowered to 40 million doses, and then lowered again. She said Wednesday that 23.2 million doses had become available, including 9 million in the last week alone.
Obama ALWAYS Blames Somebody Else for HIS Failures
That’s a clear pattern that has formed.
Cosmos,
Said it before will say it again,the average American is more concerned about things like jobs,and providing for their families than this manufactured crisis of yours.GW is just another ploy to seperate gullible people from their money,ain’t falling for it
“donndublin” enlightens us with –
“Chas the spaz bows down to his missiah Obama.”
Juvenile and racist in less than eight words!
The last time I heard the word “spaz” was 8th Grade.
I’m sure that adequate H1N1 vaccine would be available if the Government just took over the drug manufacturing companies and ran them the Government way.
But then, if the Government Owned Drug Companies Effed-up, who would Obama blame then?
donndublin and Freebird1971 seem to oppose individuals making financial investments.
Do they want government regulations that prohibit those investments?
Free, Donn,
Do you really see a point to arguing with that little girl? All she wants is attention and you two are giving it to her.
CosMao, You should be happy. That’s 1.3 billion people less making a carbon footprint.
Of course anyone with any technical knowledge would reserve the melted ice for any possible drought. The ice melt isn’t the same as rain and can easily be stored in reservoirs. Those “experts” must be Algore disciples.

19. Demonstration program for shared decision making using patient decision aids (Section 1236, p. 648)
————————————————
So, Government makes health care treatment decisions for the patient?
What if I want to try chemotherapy, and the Government decides that I should just die quickly instead?
I suppose I could go to Canada or Mexico for treatment. Or maybe Great Britain.
Is that “Decision Aid” a Government Doctor holding a shotgun to the patient’s head?
Jim,

—————————————————–
That’s scary. Government sets up a bureaucracy to make things simple.
I suppose there will be 10,000 rules to follow, to make things simple.
Then of course, someone will have to be auditing to make sure those 10,000 rules are being followed.
Will there be a Ministry of Silly Walks too?

Of course anyone with any technical knowledge would reserve the melted ice for any possible drought. The ice melt isn’t the same as rain and can easily be stored in reservoirs.

There, they just created a lottery for free money. Instead of creating jobs, they stimulated a chaotic mob scene, with fights and injuries and a near-riot.

I’d be a lot more impressed with these tea party types if they’d have been protesting a Republican administration and Congress as vociferously as they protest now.
*End the bailouts – See GW Bush and Hank Paulson
*Stop out-of-control deficit spending – I never saw the Bush administration propose a balanced budget, ever.
*End the government takeover of healthcare – See Medicare Part D
*Stop raising our taxes. – Whose taxes have gone up?
Why did it take the election of a President with a funny sounding name to mobilize these people? There was plenty to protest beforehand.

After a flurry of stimulus spending, questionable projects pile up
By: Susan Ferrechio
Chief Congressional Correspondent
November 3, 2009
Fraud and abuse weigh down stimulus package
Was the stimulus worth the cost?
Fraudsters made the most of homebuyer tax credits
After a flurry of stimulus spending, questionable projects pile up
White House moves to control waste and fraud
The $787 billion stimulus bill was passed in February and was promised as a job saver and economy booster. Here is where some of the money went:
- $300,000 for a GPS-equipped helicopter to hunt for radioactive rabbit droppings at the Hanford nuclear reservation in Washington state.
- $30 million for a spring training baseball complex for the Arizona Diamondbacks and Colorado Rockies.
- $11 million for Microsoft to build a bridge connecting its two headquarter campuses in Redmond, Wash., which are separated by a highway.
- $430,000 to repair a bridge in Iowa County, Wis., that carries 10 or fewer cars per day.
- $800,000 for the John Murtha Airport in Johnstown, Pa., serving about 20 passengers per day, to build a backup runway.
- $219,000 for Syracuse University to study the sex lives of freshmen women.
- $2.3 million for the U.S. Forest Service to rear large numbers of arthropods, including the Asian longhorned beetle, the nun moth and the woolly adelgid.
- $3.4 million for a 13-foot tunnel for turtles and other wildlife attempting to cross U.S. 27 in Lake Jackson, Fla.
- $1.15 million to install a guardrail for a persistently dry lake bed in Guymon, Okla.
- $9.38 million to renovate a century-old train depot in Lancaster County, Pa., that has not been used for three decades.
- $2.5 million in stimulus checks sent to the deceased.
- $6 million for a snow-making facility in Duluth, Minn.
- $173,834 to weatherize eight pickup trucks in Madison County, Ill.
- $20,000 for a fish sperm freezer at the Gavins Point National Fish Hatchery in South Dakota.
- $380,000 to spay and neuter pets in Wichita, Kan.
- $300 apiece for thousands of signs at road construction sites across the country announcing that the projects are funded by stimulus money.
- $1.5 million for a fence to block would-be jumpers from leaping off the All-American Bridge in Akron, Ohio.
- $1 million to study the health effects of environmentally friendly public housing on 300 people in Chicago.
- $356,000 for Indiana University to study childhood comprehension of foreign accents compared with native speech.
- $983,952 for street beautification in Ann Arbor, Mich., including decorative lighting, trees, benches and bike paths.
- $148,438 for Washington State University to analyze the use of marijuana in conjunction with medications like morphine.
- $462,000 to purchase 22 concrete toilets for use in the Mark Twain National Forest in Missouri
- $3.1 million to transform a canal barge into a floating museum that will travel the Erie Canal in New York state.
- $1.3 million on government arts jobs in Maine, including $30,000 for basket makers, $20,000 for storytelling and $12,500 for a music festival.
- $71,000 for a hybrid car to be used by student drivers in Colchester, Vt., as well as a plug-in hybrid for town workers decked out with a sign touting the vehicle’s energy efficiency.
- $1 million for Portland, Ore., to replace 100 aging bike lockers and build a garage that would house 250 bicycles.
It took YEARS of screw-ups to create this financial boondoggle…. And these teabaggers want it fixed in less than a YEAR… And by a guy they TRIED to stop from being elected…

chas, why don’t you show up tommorrow and tell them “teabaggers” what you think. I’d love to see you and BJ laughed at.
“Regular” proclaims –
“99.9 percent of AGW climate news involves predictions not science.”
That’s about as absurd a comment I’ve ever read from you, “Regular.”
99.9% percent of science is nothing but predictions. Will the Salk vaccine work better than the Sabin vaccine? Will a point.six degree course correction get to the Moon or miss it altogether? Is a mixture of sulfur, charcoal, and potassium nitrate likely to blow up?
“The Snows of Kilimanjaro” are almost no more. That’s not a prediction and it’s not science, it’s a fact. The Himalayan farms, grazing lands, settlements, towns, and cities with excessive run-off. That’s not a prediction and that’s only nominally “science” (measuring the damage); it’s a fact.
And, as much as I admire “cosmo_originally’s” passion on AGW, we progressives have once again allowed CONs to gang up on what is essentially is a tangential issue. CONs bark up this particular tree and reveal they’re totally oblivious of the forest.
Fossil fuels are an ancient, filthy, depleting finite resource. Too many people who have too much of it hate Americans and Christians and Western Civilization in general just love holding our feet to the… ahem, fire.
Global Warming is a facet of a bigger challenge. It’s a fact and it’s got important considerations, but there is more at stake.
You don’t like Al Gore? Fine. I’m not fond of Jim Inhoff, either. One funds real scientists — and their predictions — and the other parrots his fossil fuel company contributors’ propaganda.
Just what I figured.. ANTI got nothing, so he runs off with tail between his legs… Run, Anti, Run!!! ROFL!!!

I’m not sure a counter-demonstration is the right strategy.
If I were in town I’d bring a bunch of posters with genuine Tea-Bagger posters (i.e., “Keep government hands off my Medicare!” et al….) and get the (Cluster) Fox Noise Channel to cover it. I’d throw in a few of the Scott Roeder eBay drawings, too.
It’s particularly ironic the Tea-Baggers’ party is going to take place at the “Wingnuts’” stadium.
It’s as if they’re totally oblivious to those implications!

The only way to guarantee making money is to rig the markets.

donndublin believes that money losses in buggy whips, whale oil, etc, were caused by rigged markets.
Let’s pass the hat to buy Chas a bus ticket back to Wichita. I’ll chip in a 5 spot.

For anybody who’s interested, I want to see for myself what these teaparties are all about. Capn says there’ll be a counterdemonstration, so I’ll check that out, too. I’ll report back with an HONEST opinion. If it’s a Repub lovefest, I’ll say so. But if it’s concerned Americans……
I’ll check attendence at both functions and take some pics.

Hey Profane Phony Preacher (chas), do you talk in caps too?
I was looking up some specifics about health care legislation elsewhere and discovered something called democraticundergroud.com which says that the legislation to pass the Health Care Single Payer Act in Canada was 14 pages long. Well 7 really, because it’s in both official languages. Think about it!
Our congress could complicate a crowbar.
Could it be all the payoffs and exemptions to get all the dims to support it?

george,
AGW fananics call anyone who diagree with them “flat earthers” and “deniers” instead of debating what IS science and what is not.
Marian MacDorman of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (email MMacDorman@CDC.gov ) has issued an apparently fraudulent report claiming that a high premature birth rate (1 of 8 births), a cause of the high infant mortality rate in the USofA, is caused by poor access to prenatal care, maternal obesity and smoking, too-early cesarean sections and induced labor and fertility treatments. The news releases of the report deliberately omit previous abortion as a repeatedly proven major risk factor for premature birth, failing to inform mothers as to how to avoid future risk of premature birth and the associated medical complications.
More than one previous abortion causes risks that virtually assure such complications in a later pregnancy being carried to term. Genocidal abortion mills in America have targeted the black race at 3 times the abortion rate, resulting in a premature birth rate and infant mortality rate 3 times or more higher, and a higher rate of medical problems in black newborns such as cerebral palsy.
See news page
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20091103/ap_on_he_me/us_med_preterm_births
They’re called AGW science deniers, because they deny AGW science (and reality).
And the AGW science deniers do not understand that AGW science has been debated by scientists worldwide, in scientific journals.
Actually a 32 PERCENT increase in Gas Prices Chas, not 32 Cents, since Obama took office.
And Remember, Pelosi’s promise to lower gas prices when the Dems took back Congress?
http://www.herald-dispatch.com/opinions/x343466550
The situation fueled a press release by Rep. Nancy Pelosi: “With skyrocketing gas prices, it is clear that the American people can no longer afford the Republican rubber-stamp Congress and its failure to stand up to the Republican big oil and gas company cronies.”
She announced, “Democrats have a common-sense plan to help bring down skyrocketing gas prices by cracking down on price gouging, rolling back the billions of dollars in taxpayer subsidies, tax breaks and royalty relief given to big oil and gas companies, and increasing production of alternative fuels.”
Well, over a year after taking the Senate and the House on Jan. 4, 2007, and promising to lower oil prices, the Democrats have presided over the highest oil price increase in history. Last week, gasoline prices averaged $3.94 per gallon, $1.03 higher than when now-Speaker Pelosi made her politically motivated promise.
Just when were the Democrats planning on implementing their plan?
Stupid “people who post about AGW” make stupid remarks like, “donndublin can’t think”.
have been following/reading all the CBO reports in detail since January. I couldn’t figure out how
the latest House version could possibly have cut costs to keep the bill under the made-up magic 900 billion.
(CBO’s website is easy to follow. See latest reports dtd 29 and 30 October, and letter to to Rangel)
Now, the former CBO Director helps me out by explaining what I couldn’tsee in the report(s). Frontloads and backloads:
Extract:
“Former Congressional Budget Office Director Douglas Holtz-Eakin said
the House Democrats’ health care overhaul is neither durable nor
desirable because it would raise insurance premiums, ration care, and
fail to bring down the cost of health care in America.
Speaking Monday on a conference call with reporters, Holtz-Eakin said
that House Democrats had failed to draft a bill that would deliver
meaningful health care reform without breaking the budget. House
Democrats unveiled their 1,990-page health care bill last Thursday.
President Obama called it a “critical milestone.”
Holtz-Eakin, however, said: “We are going to generally raise the cost of
existing insurance to those who already have it – and that’s a majority
of Americans – and then put in place a fiscally rickety way to get
insurance to those who do not have insurance.”
Instead, the House bill employs budget “gimmicks” to hide its true cost
and make the bill appear fiscally responsible while creating another
federal entitlement program that Congress will not be able to pay for,
he said.
“This sets up instead a large entitlement spending program that grows at
8 percent a year as far as the eye can see, and which [current] CBO
Director Doug Elmendorf said earlier this year did not bend the cost
curve,” said Holtz-Eakin. “It leaves the architects with only gimmicks
to disguise this problem.”
Among those “gimmicks” is the front-loading of new taxes and the
delaying of spending provisions, Holtz-Eakin said, both of which give
the appearance of balance while concealing the real 10-year cost of the
bill’s expensive insurance subsidies and entitlement expansions.
“It front-loads all of the taxes and back-loads all of the spending so
as to give the appearance of balance over the 10-year window,” he
explained.
One of the effort’s largest savings provisions, a reduction in Medicare
payments rates, is “unrealistic,” Holtz-Eakin said, because Democrats
made no substantive changes to the health care delivery system that
would allow them to cut the rates at which the government pays doctors
for providing care to seniors on Medicare.”

Among those “gimmicks” is the front-loading of new taxes and the
delaying of spending provisions, Holtz-Eakin said, both of which give
the appearance of balance while concealing the real 10-year cost of the
bill’s expensive insurance subsidies and entitlement expansions.
“It front-loads all of the taxes and back-loads all of the spending so
as to give the appearance of balance over the 10-year window,” he
explained.
One of the effort’s largest savings provisions, a reduction in Medicare
payments rates, is “unrealistic,” Holtz-Eakin said, because Democrats
made no substantive changes to the health care delivery system that
would allow them to cut the rates at which the government pays doctors
for providing care to seniors on Medicare.”

Actually a 32 PERCENT increase in Gas Prices Chas, not 32 Cents, since Obama took office.
And Remember, Pelosi’s promise to lower gas prices when the Dems took back Congress?
http://www.herald-dispatch.com/opinions/x343466550
The situation fueled a press release by Rep. Nancy Pelosi: “With skyrocketing gas prices, it is clear that the American people can no longer afford the Republican rubber-stamp Congress and its failure to stand up to the Republican big oil and gas company cronies.”
She announced, “Democrats have a common-sense plan to help bring down skyrocketing gas prices by cracking down on price gouging, rolling back the billions of dollars in taxpayer subsidies, tax breaks and royalty relief given to big oil and gas companies, and increasing production of alternative fuels.”
Well, over a year after taking the Senate and the House on Jan. 4, 2007, and promising to lower oil prices, the Democrats have presided over the highest oil price increase in history. Last week, gasoline prices averaged $3.94 per gallon, $1.03 higher than when now-Speaker Pelosi made her politically motivated promise.
Just when were the Democrats planning on implementing their plan?

Some Himalayan Glaciers Growing
Michael Reilly, Discovery News
But in the rugged western corner of the plateau, the story is different, according to a new study. Among legendary peaks of Mt. Everest like K2 and Nanga Parbat, glaciers with a penthouse view of the world are growing, and have been for almost three decades.

Cosmao,

Just like Algore and company, Mother nature proves the AGW alarmists wrong again.
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) issued a press release on October 1 once again attacking Al Gore because he eats meat and yet wants to end global warming. They’ve got a billboard with a picture of Gore munching on a drumstick and saying “Too Chicken to go Vegetarian? Meat is the #1 cause of Global Warming.” Ingrid Newkirk repeats the assertion printed on a PETA flyer that “there’s no such thing as a meat-eating environmentalist” and cites the recent FAO study which stated that the cattle industry causes more global warming than the entire transportation sector.

From Donn’s article:
When Shroder and a team of researchers examined satellite imagery of the region’s glaciers dating back to 1960, they found that 87 glaciers had surged forward during that time, sliding down into lower elevations. An analysis of gravity signatures in the region also suggests the glaciers are growing in mass, and have been since at least 1980.
————————
That’s a big “uh oh” for cosMAO and his ‘henny penny’ alarmists.
Also from the artical:
“In the Karakorams, the uptick in glacier mass has come with a welcomed perk. The mighty Indus River, which flows out of China and nourishes northern India and much of Pakistan has experienced an increase in discharge.”

Bush administration AWOL regarding flu shot crisis, New York Times 10/22/04
———————————
Senator Kerry said in an interview with National Public Radio:
If you can’t get flu vaccines to Americans, how are you going to protect them against bioterrorism? If you can’t get flu vaccines to Americans, what kind of health care program are you running?

10/20/04:
Flu Headache
Yesterday, on the way from St. Petersburg to New Port Richey, the presidential entourage stopped at the Paradise Restaurant in the little town of Safety Harbor, where the president and his brother posed for pictures and were served coffee and baklava. While in the restaurant, a member of the press pool shouted out a question to the president: “Are you accountable for the flu vaccine shortage?”
Bush ignored the question. And reporters were hustled out of the restaurant.
—————————————–
Richard Sisk and Helen Kennedy write in the New York Daily News:
The flu is giving President Bush a headache.
———————————————
Laura Meckler writes for the Associated Press:
For Bush, the issue is much like what a mayor faces when streets go unplowed after a snow storm just before an election, said Robert Blendon, a Harvard pollster who specializes in health issues. . . .
———————————————
Jonathan Peterson writes in the Los Angeles Times:
One analyst said the vaccine shortage could damage Bush politically. “It doesn’t take any sophistication about politics to grasp the basic point: Not enough vaccine, and it happened on the administration’s watch,” said Lawrence Jacobs, director of the 2004 Elections Project for the Hubert H. Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs at the University of Minnesota.
This issue has the potential for becoming the poster child for the Kerry campaign theme that President Bush has dropped the ball.
————————————————–
ABC News Poll 2004
Blame, at the same time, is not currently in great supply. Twenty-seven percent of likely voters say the Bush administration deserves blame for the vaccine shortage, and fewer, 12 percent, assign it a “great deal” of blame. That blame, moreover, is largely partisan, peaking among Kerry voters, Democrats, liberals and other core Democratic groups. It’s not significantly higher among seniors.
Concern about the lack of vaccine is 10 points higher among women than men, but no higher among parents with children under 18 at home (parents of very young children are too small a subgroup to break out in this poll). Neither women, nor parents, are more apt to blame the Bush administration for the vaccine shortage.
Kerry, for his part, has directly blamed the administration for the shortage, including a radio ad that specifically mentioned elderly Americans, young children and pregnant women as being at risk.

In Iowa, Second Thoughts on Obama
By JEFF ZELENY
WILLIAMSBURG, Iowa – Pauline McAreavy voted for President Obama. From
the moment she first saw him two years ago, she was smitten by his
speeches and sold on his promise of change. She switched parties to
support him in the Iowa caucuses, donated money and opened her home to a
pair of young campaign workers.
But by the time she received a fund-raising letter last month from the
Democratic National Committee, a sense of disappointment had set in. She
returned the solicitation with a handwritten note, saying, “Until I see
some progress and he lives up to his promises in Iowa, we will not give
one penny.”
“I’m afraid I wasn’t realistic,” Ms. McAreavy, 76, a retired school
nurse, said on a recent morning on the deck of her home here in
east-central Iowa.
“I really thought there would be immediate change,” she said. “Sometimes
the Republicans are just as bad as Democrats. But it’s politics as
usual, and that’s what I voted against.”

What is Al Gore’s weight now?
———————————
Fluff doesn’t weigh much, it’s like popcorn in a cooker.
Evaluation of the latest democrat healthcare bill indicate it will do nothing to affect the life expectancy or infant mortality and it will not ensure every American has healthcare insurance. It will not
reduce the cost of healthcare or insurance for most Americans.
In other words, 1.4 trillion dollars will not accomplish any of democrats initial publicly stated objectives.

Well they are welcome to try, but it’s pretty difficult to agrue against the many facts and truths posted here today.
I’ll admit, if I was a lib, I couldn’t take the heat against such strongly argued positions.
AmWay, your lies are too numerous to count… I dont have to prove your lies… It’s my opinion that you post lies… I guess you could try to prove you dont… i through with proving your lies…
night!!
So to Chas, if you disagree – you are WORTHLESS.
Those are the words of the new sainthood.
Well Chas if you post that everyone and everything is “lies”, and then say that is your “opinion” and cannot back it up, what does that make you?
Admit it. You can no longer take the heat from the opposition and the faults of your own party.
It’s o.k., you can always go post on Linda’s facebook blog where it’s all lovely Linda all the time….
Have fun. Plant lots of flowers over there!
“Anti-American propaganda…”
Now Chas, you know that protesting and joining together in rallies is a very American thing to do,
don’t you? You do know the truth about American’s right to assemble, don’t you?
Perhaps you need to go read about Obama: “dictators who desire control over the flow of information in order to enhance their power.”

No go run along and post on a blog where liberals love each other and agree together on each others posts.
I was thinking of planting a Venus Fly Trap on this Blog…. That way it wont cost me anything on the “other” blog…
ROFL!!
It looks like a smack down by the Grand Old Party.
Virginia Governor – Republican
New Jersey – Republican expected to win with 80 percent of the vote in (not N.J. is a blue state, so that is a huge smack down)
Chas, do you want us to help you dream up a new top secret NIC for your new life on the new blog?
I think that is a requirement. If you want help, just ask.
Most of the bloggers over their have bought beautiful new homes with the millions they are making in revenue off the billions of “hits” they are getting.
Don’t you want a new house too? Bet you’d get it there faster than waiting for Obama to issue you one.
Regular,
Libs are ALREADY making “light” of it. They are trying to blow it off as no “biggy”.
Funny to watch. Last week they were flying all over the place campaigning for “no biggy”.
And please look at the millions spent on these campaigns by democrats for “no biggy”.
LMAO!

O’BAMA has told the Dem Congress to get their mits into that cash flow. Those blogs that have sponsor will be paying a new tax as part of the ‘Net Neutrality’ bill.

Well, I can see making light of Virginia, they are fickled.
However, New Jersey, big union state – cold, hard true blue Democrat state – the Crats got taken down to the mat and counted out.
AmWay doesnt give a damn about needy people… They have no potential of getting in the way of his precious personal investments… Begging on street corners is also at least an historical thing for Americans to do…
AmWay HATES poor people….
“AmWay doesnt give a damn about needy people…”
Where did this come from. Chas are you just reaching out for something. Have you tried racism tonight?

I really think Chas and BJ are the same people in spirit.
Cons want poor people to die.
Cons want poor people to beg.
Cons want poor people to _______ just fill in the blank.
Libs are great at projecting their thoughts into other peoples heads.
Oh I forgot.
Cons are racist.
Perhaps the Crats can use the ‘race card’ tomorrow – you know – for all those racists in Virginia and New Jersey.
“Hours after urging reporters not to draw sweeping conclusions from Tuesday’s gubernatorial elections in New Jersey and Virginia, White House press secretary Robert Gibbs told POLITICO President Barack Obama wasn’t even keeping an eye on the results.
“He’s not watching returns,” Gibbs said. ”
Of course not,he as peeps for that.
2010 will apparently, be pretty damn interesting.
New Jersey Governor Corzine concedes.
The former Goldman-Sachs CEO who has spent 114 million dollars of his own money in current and past elections to buy political office in New Jersey, found no federal bailout money to save him.
Watch out XXX – duh Dems are gonna blame you independents. :D
Well what I have said all along has shown itself to be true tonight. It isn’t the libs and cons who will tilt the 2010 elections – it is the independents and this has certainly proved to be true today.
I just bet Obama isn’t watching the returns. The man made 6 trips to NJ and he didn’t care who won. At least he could stand up for once and own his own actions.
“At least he could stand up for once and own his own actions.”
No, I think it is Bush’s fault.
Right now, there are some moderate/conservative Democratic Congressional Representatives from the states of New Jersey and Virginia that are going to be distancing themselves from Pelosicare.
Who CARES about state politics.
We are gonna pick up another house seat!
Oh and “American way”= James “Regular” McCluer.
“Who CARES about state politics.”
The losers never care about the races they lose.
“Cons want poor people to die.
Cons want poor people to beg.
Cons want poor people to _______ just fill in the blank.
Funny, no refute of this was offered.
“Hud” also = “Regular”
Yeah BlueJay, I’m everyone on this blog.
Poor Regular. He doesn’t know. If the kind of America HE wishes for were to come to pass, he would be determined obsolete and useless.
50 50 on repeal of gay marriage rights in Maine.
OUCH says the church!
That upstate New York race. I just heard Republicans have held that seat for a hundred years. And right now they are set to lose it.
CNN projects that Democrat Bill Owen will win the 23rd district of New York! This is a seat that greedy Republicans had held for more than a hundred years!
Keep your state victories cons. States are just land with lines drawn around it where you cons do your best to inflict as much local pain and suffering as possible. The FED to the rescue!
The New York 23rd is the first fatality in the Republican civil war.
“This may be what some of us have been waiting for. A breath of fresh
air? As a conservative,
I am watching and waiting. Not everything in the tea party is for me.
But very little of the
republican party and none of the democrats represent me well either.
“In what could be a nightmare scenario for Republican Party officials,
conservative activists are gearing up to challenge leading GOP
candidates in more than a dozen key House and Senate races in 2010.”
We see how well THAT works tonight. More MORE!
I don’t recall which WE Blog CON asked about the future of railroads, but here’s the news –

Re: the election outcomes:
Virginia: This state has been a red state (pretty much like Kansas) for decades. The dem. who was running had negative charisma.
New Jersey: The incumbent Dem. governor had some corruption issues in his past and there was an independent running who, the last I saw got about 5% of the vote. The vote between the Rep. & the Dem. was pretty close the last time I saw any info; I expect that 5% was influential on the final outcome–either way.
New York: The Dem. won the congressional seat in a district which had always gone Republican since the 1860’s accordinging to one news show–I watched so many, I don’t remember which one now.
