At the beginning of the week the health industry was all gung-ho to work with the administration to ease to costs of healthcare. Now it looks like they are yelling out “SIKE!” Hospitals and insurance companies said Thursday that President Obama had substantially overstated their promise earlier this week to reduce the growth of health […]
It doesn’t matter what President Obama does. The only thing that matters to Republicans is to oppose it: The National Republican Trust PAC, currently the best-funded and most aggressive independent Republican group, has dispatched a round of letters to Republican senators threatening to go after senators who back President Obama’s judicial nominees. “I encourage you […]
This is very interesting: Justice David H. Souter’s retirement from the Supreme Court will open a window into whether President Obama is truly a coolheaded, moderate technocrat, as claimed by Democrats, or a standard-bearer for some of the left’s most extreme ideas, as claimed by Republicans. The stakes are high – the nine justices set […]
Yesterday Dick Cheney restated his claim that “Obama has made us less safe”. Today we have seen the right defending Cheney’s comments. This morning while watching Morning Joe, Scarborough kept defending the comments by saying “well Clinton was out bashing Bush right after Bush took office”.

This is by far one of the most crap-tastic polls ever put out by that crap-tastic organization Rasmussen. What kind of polling question is that? Let me tell you – it’s a push […]
The Cincinnati Enquirer is preparing to rank President Obama’s first hundred days. In doing so they listed how local lawmakers have voted with the President. Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio: 100 percent Rep. Steve Driehaus, D-Ohio: 86 percent Sen. George Voinovich, R-Ohio: 71 percent Rep. Mike Turner, R-Ohio: 43 percent Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky.: 41 percent […]
Keith took on President Obama’s decision to not prosecute those involved with torture with a special comment last night: Visit msnbc.com for Breaking News, World News, and News about the Economy I guess it kind of put a damper on the wingnuts constant claims that MSNBC is a spokesperson for Obama.
