As Susie Green would say, “Rush, you fat f*ck!”
It would appear that Rush Limbaugh’s recent spate of publicity is going to his fat head. How else to explain Rush’s obviously full-of-himself offer to Pres. Obama to appear on his show?
Get real.
“If you can win at this, then come here and beat me at my own [...]

“He had me at ‘Madame Speaker.’”
— Steve Schale (1975 – ), Democratic consultant and chair of Obama’s Florida campaign, reacting to the president’s speech on the stimulus plan

That pesky liberal media is at it again. Here’s the headline from CNN:
68% Give Obama Speech a Thumbs-Up
Hmmm…so if 68 percent liked it, then I guess 32 percent didn’t, right? Wrong. Actually, almost everyone liked it.
Sixty-eight percent of speech-watchers questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey had a very positive reaction, with 24 percent indicating [...]

Red Hen Republicans?
Once upon a time there lived a man in a big white house. He looked outside one day and saw many, many people suffering. “Hey everybody,” he said, “people are suffering and things are going to get worse fast. Who wants to help me write a stimulus bill?”

— David Axelrod [...]

The extraordinary thing about this clip from Obama’s recent town hall in Florida is not his reaction to a homeless woman who wants, not a car or a park, but a kitchen and a bathroom for her family. No, the extraordinary thing is the fact that she was allowed in the room. Can you imagine [...]

Hoekstra’s twitter feed
Just when you thought you could hold no more contempt for Republicans, along comes this bit of news: the former chair (when Republicans ran things) of the House Intelligence Committee breached security by twittering about a secret trip to Iraq — while he was there.
Security for the excursion was so tight that [...]

Today is the one-year anniversary of Super Tuesday, when Sen. Hillary Clinton failed to stem the challenge of Sen. Barack Obama. Although Clinton won the big states, such as California and New York, Obama won more delegates.
 

It’s not that hard to write your senators and urge them to pass Obama’s economic stimulus plan. There are only two senators per state, after all. I just sent this message to Sen.
