"Media Bias and Obama's Teachable Moment"
One of the most respected journalists in the nation today, Mike McCarville, points to an excellent analysis of the media bias that occurred just after Barack Obama's gaffe concerning the Cambridge Police Department's handling of an incident involving a Harvard professor.
The analysis also highlights a 'teachable moment' for Obama in the handling of such matters in the future.
To be completely frank, one has the wonder about the stability and insight of a U.S. President wading into a local police matter, particularly before he has any knowledge of the facts.

But I Thought 'the Great One' Was Supposed to Revive Liberalism
Americans who consider themselves conservatives now outnumber Americans who consider themselves liberal by almost two to one, according to a new poll by the Washington Post and ABC News.
In the poll of 1,001 adults conducted between July 15-18, respondents were asked: “Would you say your views on most political matters are liberal, moderate, or conservative?”
Thirty-eight percent said they were conservative, while only 20% said they were liberal. Thirty-nine percent, meanwhile, said they were moderate.
The percentage of self-described conservatives has increased since President Barack Obama was inaugurated in January and the percentage of self-described liberals has diminished.

Banks Still Failing, So Where's the Sign of Recovery?
As the Obama administration continues to assure the public that we are now seeing signs of recovery in the economy, the facts say otherwise.
Other than the rebounding stock market, banks are still failing in near-record numbers. Just yesterday, 6 banks were shut down by the Feds in the state of Georgia alone.
In addition, the economy continues to lose jobs to the tune of 400,000-500,000 per month, the housing industry is still in the toilet, and Obama's fascist experiment with 'Government Motors' is failing badly.
GM lost over 20% of its sales last month, while Ford, and only major U.S. carmaker not to take stimulus money, showed its first profit in over a year.
And don't get too comfortable yet, my friends. There is another trainwreck on the way as commercial mortgages begin to fail in the coming months.

DEMS LIE TO AMERICAN PEOPLE ON HEALTHCARE
Just yesterday we saw a graphic display of just how scandalous the House Democratic leadership can be when committee chair Henry Waxman threatened to move to a floor vote on the government takeover of healthcare that very same day.
Conservative 'blue dog' Democrats were outraged and stormed out of a special meeting with Waxman, stating that he had 'lied to them' that they were merely trying to 'save their Party.'
As if this were not enough, White House henchman Rahm Emanuel told reporters yesterday afternoon that in spite of announcing to the public that there would be no vote on the healthcare legislation until the Fall, the House Democratic leadership is, indeed, planning a vote next week--BEFORE the recess.
From NPR:
So much for open, honest, ethical, and transparent government...

From NPR:
The House of Representatives does plan to vote on health legislation before leaving for its August recess, White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel told NPR.
Emerging from several hours of meetings Thursday with House leaders, including Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Emanuel told NPR's Steve Inskeep that "their intention is to go next week and she is working toward that goal."
So much for open, honest, ethical, and transparent government...

UPDATE! Blue Dog Dems Storm out of Committee!
Stating that they had been lied to by House Committee chair Henry Waxman, D-California, a group of conservative 'blue dog' Democrats stormed out of a meeting with Waxman concerning bringing the government takeover of healthcare to a floor vote today.
This report was filed by The Hill.
The Blue Dogs contend that the House Democratic leadership, Waxman in particular, ceased to negotiate with them 'in good faith,' and that they (the conservatives) were merely trying to 'save their Party.'
Obviously, the Democrats are in complete disarray over this monstrous plan that has sharply divided their own Party.

The Blue Dogs contend that the House Democratic leadership, Waxman in particular, ceased to negotiate with them 'in good faith,' and that they (the conservatives) were merely trying to 'save their Party.'
“I’ve been lied to,” Blue Dog Coalition Co-Chairman Charlie Melancon (D-La.) said on Friday. “We have not had legitimate negotiations.
“Mr. Waxman has decided to sever discussions with the Blue Dogs who are trying to make this bill work for America,” Melancon said.
Although those Blue Dogs were supposed to be headed back into another meeting of the Energy and Commerce Democrats, their anger was visible.
Obviously, the Democrats are in complete disarray over this monstrous plan that has sharply divided their own Party.
******URGENT LIBERTY ALERT ON HC!!*******
This is an urgent Liberty Alert!

"Lies, Damn Lies, and Health Care"
Studies already show the legislation's eroding popularity, as citizens find out the problems inherent in socialized medicine, the tax increases necessary to finance it, and the deception politicians use to inflate the number of uninsured Americans.
(From the article 'Lies, Damn Lies, and Healthcare' in Front Page Magazine).
Make no mistake about it, the Obama Administration and Democrats on the Hill are lying about the numbers of uninsured Americans in order to falsely justify dismantling our present healthcare system in lieu of a government-controlled form of socialized medicine.
The costs to the taxpayers are astronomical, the problems with the plan are insurmountable, and the deception used to market the program is inexcusable.

If You Wanna Hear Something Totally Stupid...
Stupidity knows no bounds in the Obama administration.
The latest is the example provided by Obama economic adviser Larry Summers, supposedly 'proving' that the economy is well on the mend.
Summers' proof? 'Fewer people are searching the term "economic depression" on Google.'
Uh, you wanna run that by me again, Einstein?
Do you think, in your almighty wisdom, that there may be the slightest possibility that the reason people aren't looking for that term as much is that they are already convinced that the economy is in the tank and will get worse before it gets better?
Nahhhh, I didn't think so...
