How the hell did those racist blatantly lying tea baggers get in office, especially Allen West who was kicked out of the Army who said he has higher clearance than the President?!!

And now tomorrow those Rep clowns are going to read the Constitution out loud, Why??

You have dumber than Palin Michelle Bachman saying she wants to run for President!

I'm really starting to believe the Mayans about 2012...

The short answer? Because the Democratic leadership blew their chance to expand their base after Bush left office.

There was a good program on Dan Rather Reports recently about this. Regardless of what some think of Rather, his show does a good job of digging deeper into most stories, compared to the traditional news media.

I think it should be read in full at the start of each new session. It's not all that long, shows respect, and serves as a reminder of what they are there to defend.

Dan Rather's one of a dying breed - an ACTUAL journalist who takes pride in his job, views it with integrity and treats it with respect.

The new breed of political "pundits" and reporters celebrate their own stupidity like I celebrate a winning lottery ticket.
