Career Democrats (not just "outsider" liberal critics) are beginning to criticize President Obama's senior staff. The Hill , for example, reports that liberal and moderate Democrats in Congress blame Rahm Emanuel for the Obama administration's poor performance on healthcare reform. Although both sides point to Emanuel, they do so for different reasons. Moderates fault Emanuel for only seeking the support of a narrow band of politicians, like Senators Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins. Liberals... Read Full Story
White House Press Secretary, Robert Gibbs, decided to stick it to FAILIN' Palin, by writing a grocery list on the palm of his hand. Ab-so-lute-ly brilliant! Gibbs' list included: Eggs, Milk, Bread (which was crossed out), Hope, Change. Once again, Palin has come under fire for being a simpleminded, loose-mouthed hypocrite. During her Tea Party Cult speech, she chided Obama for using teleprompters. Yet, she needed crib notes to remind her to mention uplifting American spirits. Anyone who... Read Full Story
An article in today’s New York Times describes frustration amongst black activists over what they see as insufficiently preferential treatment from the President. Here’s an example:
On Capitol Hill, members of the Congressional Black Caucus have expressed irritation that Mr. Obama has not created programs tailored specifically to African-Americans, who are suffering disproportionately in the recession. In December, some of them threatened to oppose new financial rules for banks until the... Read Full Story
There is a difference between Sarah Palin and Robert Gibbs beyond the fact Palin has a brain and makes sense. The other differences are Gibbs probably used his hand for notes long before today, and he finally got caught. The other differences are he also has a teleprompter and he is whipped by Obama like a little beyotc ... Well I think you know what I mean. Here is a man, who serves another man who can't even make a coherent policy statement without a teleprompter, attacking Palin's hand... Read Full Story
Sarah Palin manages to drive these voters towards the Democratic Party, as they are especially offended by the idea that women are so stupid that they will vote for another woman, regardless of how intellectually empty and unqualified she is.

Ah yes. Our pal and elitist liberal/progressive snob Andrea Mitchell who inspired the creation of this blog decided to mock Sarah Palin’s use of “hand notes” over the weekend. On the MSNBC “Morning Joe”, which happens to be co-hosted by someone who thinks Abe Lincoln was a founding father, NBC “correspondent” Andrea Mitchell ridiculed Sarah Palin’s use of hand notes during her Tea Party Q. and A . by displaying some hand notes of her own. I’m still waiting for this snob’s mocking of Obama’s... Read Full Story
For the first time, I actually liked most of what Sarah Palin said during her speech at the Tea Party Convention in Nashville last weekend. That was fine until I realized, through various media outlets, that she had scribbled some notes in her hand. Andrea Mitchell mocked Palin this morning on MSNBC's "Daily Rundown" with notes written on her hand and she said that was "one of the most interesting things" from Palin's appearance over the weekend. Chuck Todd, a co-host of the "Daily Rundown... Read Full Story

In spite of the fact the State of the Union address on Wednesday appeared to underscore to many political pundits, Republicans, and Barack Obama critics (and foes) that the President fell short - his rallying team insisted in an e-mail communication to me this evening that undoubtedly the universe was unfolding as it should (as my own Prime Minister Pierre Elliot Trudeau once eloquently noted in an hour of defeat). Why? After the speech (in which the President laid out his priorities for... Read Full Story
