Uh, yea. Yea, the ‘present’ votes were kind of a clue to anyone that was looking.
Consider the president’s leadership style, which has now become clear: deliver a moving speech, move on, and when push comes to shove, leave it to others to decide what to do if there’s a conflict, because if there’s a conflict, he doesn’t want to be anywhere near it.

I’m not sure why they left off the instructions on how to defeat this new technology, but here it is. Look closely. Wouldn’t want to broadcast our newest secret weapon or have it leak out or something.
I’m guessing this is disinformation. God help us if its not.

I assure you Nancy, House Democrats can definitely swallow:
House Democrats acknowledge that they will be limited in how far they can tweak the Senate compromise. But House leadership also knows that its rank and file need to force some changes, however small, before they will accept the final package — as a face-saving measure to be able to swallow late changes to the bill in the Senate, most notably the decision to eliminate a public option.

Which One of These Doesn't Belong?
Hmmmm. Last time I checked, Michelle Obama was not a Hollywood body. Have they measured her hips? There’s a ‘wide load’ sticker there somewhere.
From now on, we will refer to her as “Foist Lady”, which more accurately reflects the media’s feeble attempts to keep her front and center in their blind, partisan promotion of Obama.

Wuss Boy
Nixon wanted to be loved. Democrats just stole your children’s future:
Senate Democrats won a crucial test vote on President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul, putting them on track for passage before Christmas of the historic legislation to remake the nation’s medical system and cover 30 million uninsured.
All 58 Democrats and the Senate’s two independents held together early Monday against unanimous Republican opposition, providing the exact 60-40 margin needed to shut down a threatened GOP filibuster.
The vote came shortly after 1 a.m. with the nation’s capital blanketed in snow, the unusual timing made necessary in order to get to a final vote by Christmas Eve presuming Republicans stretch out the debate as much as the rules allow. Despite the late hour and a harshly partisan atmosphere, Democrats’ spirits were high.

Sickening:
Mr. Obama promised a new era of transparent good government, yet on Saturday morning Mr. Reid threw out the 2,100-page bill that the world’s greatest deliberative body spent just 17 days debating and replaced it with a new “manager’s amendment” that was stapled together in covert partisan negotiations. Democrats are barely even bothering to pretend to care what’s in it, not that any Senator had the chance to digest it in the 38 hours before the first cloture vote at 1 a.m. this morning. After procedural motions that allow for no amendments, the final vote could come at 9 p.m. on December 24.

Not a surprise. I’m sure it’s pure coincidence blue states got all the Generational Theft Act of 2009 monies.
A new analysis of the $157 billion distributed by the American Reinvestment and Recovery act, popularly known as the stimulus bill, shows that the funds were distributed without regard for what states were most in need of jobs.
“You would think that if the stimulus money was actually spent to create jobs, there would be more stimulus money spent in high unemployment states,” said Veronique de Rugy, a scholar at the Mercatus Center who produced the analysis. “But we don’t find any correlation.”

As a dog owner, I can relate to their loss. In addition to the physical costs of adopting a dog and vet costs, the intangible costs are things like training. It takes months, sometimes years to train an animal to your particular characteristics. Slapping a new puppy on the front porch, while a start, does not come close to compensating the effort and time that goes into training well-loved, well behaved animals.
Had this been me, it wouldn’t have just been the dog going to the hospital. They would be pulling pellets out of the neighbor’s ass who shot the dog, too.
The state Supreme Court on Thursday was to hear a case that began in July 2003, when Denis and Sarah Scheele, who were visiting relatives, let their mixed-breed dog wander into Lewis Dustin’s yard and he fatally shot it.
Now the Scheeles are asking the court to carve out a new legal doctrine that a dog’s owners can sue for emotional distress and loss of companionship, just like parents can when they lose children.

The gift that keeps on giving:
“The Death of American Virtue,” due out in February, asserts that Clinton had yet another extramarital affair, with Susan McDougal of Whitewater fame. Also in the book, Monica Lewinsky tells author Ken Gormley that she believes the president lied under oath when he described their encounters.

Ummm, Mrs. Clinton? Hello? Pretty sure you don’t have 10 Billion to give away to 3rd world countries. You might want to, uh, check with Congress before signing that check.
With global climate change talks veering off and precariously back on the tracks, the U.S. Thursday extended a $100 billion carrot to the rest of world.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told reporters in Copenhagen Thursday the United States is willing to commit up to $10 billion a year by 2012, and would support a global fund of $100 billion a year to help developing nations deal with climate change, provided that other nations are willing live up to the “transparency” demanded by the U.S.
