"Al Gore -- now that he is wealthy and the winner of an Academy Award and Nobel Peace Prize -- has owned up to the "ethanol scam". He admitted politics was key to his support for ethanol, as it is now for Barack Obama as 2012 rapidly approaches.
"When will our politicians and the fanatics and rent-seekers driving this policy be forced to come clean as well?"

Has Greenspan gotten religion?
American Thinker "There are certain things you just never expect to hear. Some of them follow:....
" 8. Alan Greenspan says we probably don't need a central bank."
You may find the other seven items more to your liking; sentences with the words "central bank" can make our eyes glaze over. But this subject affects out entire economy and standard of living going forward.

APPALLING IGNORANCE: these people make the laws we must live under
Astute Blogger "The Preamble of our Constitution reads as follows:
Lewis no stranger to anti-conservative comments
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."The Fourteenth Amendment is HERE. Excerpt:
...nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law..."Apparently, Congressman John Lewis does not comprehend the document he took an oath to uphold."

Washington Post Now Not Even Trying To Hide Its Hatred Of Sarah Palin
Le·gal In·sur·rec·tion "Rarely do we get such a clear example of the bias of the mainstream media and the extent to which it fears and hates Sarah Palin.
"But since she is "not electable" because of this media bias, we should throw Palin overboard and demand she not run and not be taken seriously by Republican voters, right?
"Because Dana Milbank and the Editors of The Washington Post get to pick our candidates, right?"

No way Olbermann's firing means MSNBC is moving to the right, um, is it?
Newsbusters "When you look at MSNBC's new prime time lineup, you certainly can't conclude this is the last move:"
•"Hardball" at 5PM
•Cenk Uygur as substitute host of an un-named show at 6PM
•"Hardball" at 7PM
•"The Last Word" at 8PM
•"Rachel Maddow Show" at 9PM
•"The Ed Show" at 10PM
....
"In time slot after time slot, MSNBC continues to get killed by Fox News in the ratings often getting as little as one quarter the viewers of its right-leaning rival. Since the moment the merger was announced months ago, people in the industry have speculated what a new ownership team would do about this." Notice how often MSNBC gets promoted in NBC shows such as "Law and Order"?

Was Olbermann a “victim of his own success”?

US Warns China on North Korea Policy
GlobalSecurity.org "According to the unidentified U.S. official, Mr. Obama said, if Beijing does not help curb North Korea's nuclear ambitions, the United States will have to realign its forces to protect against a possible North Korean strike on American soil."
I say good for President Obama if he means it and sticks to his guns, er-oops, too violent an expression. The Tunnel Wall sincerely apologizes for using that term. But remember that Obama's base considers the ChiComs as good, U.S.- bad.
The Ball Is in America’s Court for Improving China-U.S. Military Relations From China
Hu Jintao’s Visit and the South China Sea: “Whose/Hu’s Core Interests?” "Understanding what China wants to be in Asia and globally is a foundational question for U.S. policymakers. It is a question shared by our treaty allies in Asia—Australia, Japan, Korea, the Philippines, and Thailand—as well as the rest of Southeast Asia." From Jan 11, 2011

Bully Pulpit "California's trying to take the lead on marine protection with a new, and controversial, plan to ban or restrict fishing all along its Pacific coast. One of the excuses used to justify the new, over-reaching laws? Wait for it... Global Climate Change!"
Remember PETA and the Sea Kittens? "We've got it from here. And we're going to start by retiring the old name for good. When your name can also be used as a verb that means driving a hook through your head, it's time for a serious image makeover. And who could possibly want to put a hook through a sea kitten?"
PETA Attempts To Make Fish More Adorable ""PETA thought that by renaming fish sea kittens, compassionate people who would never dream of hurting a dog or a cat might extend that sympathy to fish, or sea kittens," PETA campaign coordinator Ashley Byrne says.
"Byrne says that rebranding fish as sea kittens was obvious."
And these people vote.
Animal Rights group's Latest Pigheaded Victory Causes Problems "Many corpsmen will face a time when he or she will have to pack a gunshot wound, stop a bleeding artery, or cut into a fellow soldier to restore a breathing airway.
