Tip-Toeing Through the Tulips While the Housing Bubble Burst

Verum Serum "Rep. Frank, of course, has a distinguished history of ineptitude when it comes to regulation of the housing industry, and his role in the financial market collapse. But when it comes to avoiding culpability, he is second to no one in his ability to spin a web of deceipt and reinvent history."

Coulter: Media 'Working Through Grief of Car Bomber Not Being a Tea Partier'

Newsbusters  "Conservative author Ann Coulter on Friday in one sentence perfectly summed up the media's reaction to the identity of the man that caused a state of panic in New York's Times Square last weekend: "They're working through their grief of the car bomber not being a Tea Partier."  Such was marvelously said on Fox News's "O'Reilly Factor."

The FCC puts another industry under political control.

WSJ "A federal appeals court ruled last month that the Federal Communications Commission lacks the authority to regulate the Internet. No worries, mate.

 Net Neutrality War Heats Up "Scaled back or not, Net Neutrality is the government foot in the Internet door, with ominous implications for future private investment as well as for the future vitality of the new media.

Least Successful P.R. Campaign Ever?

PowerlineBlog "That is, the campaign to demonize and delegitimize Arizona's effort to enforce the immigration laws. Notwithstanding relentless negative coverage in the press combined with positive reports on protests against the law, and condemnation by President Obama and many other prominent politicians, Rasmussen finds that nationally, 59% of voters favor a law like Arizona's. That figure is unchanged from last week." Re: re: racial profiling  "Unless the "get tough" laws really do give investigators materially more power than they had before, the price of the blowback is not worth it." Andy McCarthy

Obama’s Good and Bad Words

Victor Davis Hanson  "Note the pattern. Americans who are successful are reduced to limb-loppers, fat cats, and phonies; they enjoy jetting to Vegas and the Super Bowl at our expense, and they seem to be “anti-immigrant” and eager to lock up Muslims — as opposed to those who wish to save children’s tonsils, save jobs, save the economy, save the Mexican poor, and save the planet."  This man is a demagogue and a political hack surrounded by demagogues and political hacks.

Hot Air "This makes two jokes now from the White House Correspondents Dinner that have come back to haunt him. Think he’ll be more self-deprecating next year or is he psychologically incapable of that?"  More here: Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer Rejects Schumer's Plea to Delay Immigration Law : "Brewer insisted in an op-ed this week that the boycotts in protest of the law are misguided and that Arizona had no choice but to act in the absence of federal reform.

Cook Political Report

Cook Political.com "May 4 Primary Wrap Up: Voters in Indiana, North Carolina and Ohio went to the polls on Tuesday to select nominees. Much to the relief of both parties, there were no surprises. Republicans got their candidate in Indiana in former Sen. Dan Coats, while Democrats are pleased that Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher won the nomination in Ohio. Both have similar challenges ahead, not the least of which is replenishing campaign coffers. In North Carolina, Democrats have a June 22 run-off between Secretary of State Elaine Marshall and former state Sen. Cal Cunningham to determine who will face GOP incumbent Sen. Richard Burr in November. "
