Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) said in a letter to the Ford Motor Company on Thursday that he was “deeply concerned about undue political pressure exerted by the White House.” to pull their “no bail-out” commercial: Ford claims there was no such pressure and that television ads were discontinued in accordance with a pre-existing schedule. True or not these commercials have created more buzz and good will than any advertisement we can ever remember (with the possible exception of those GoDaddy ads with the half-naked girls traipsing around). And in any event, given the immense popularity of this commercial, Ford must ask itself a very important question: Do they want to sell cars, or do they want to sell Obama?

Michael Moore: Patriotic Americans will wait longer for healthcare
If you are a patriotic American, you want every American to be covered the same as you. And it’s true. We want every American to have health care. And strongly support their right to provide it for themselves.
Teacher calls Tea Party President a Nazi
Tempers flared during a town hall meeting on the Dream Act Tuesday night. During the meeting a high school government teacher from John F. Kennedy called the local Tea Party president a Nazi. Remember the good old days when teachers actually had to know stuff? Like say how you couldn’t be a Nazi unless you were a national socialist.
Run Christie run!
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is reconsidering his decision not to enter the 2012 presidential race — and he says he will let top Republican donors know within days about his plans. If Christie enters the race it will be to do two things . . . chew bubble gum and kick ass. And he’s all out of bubble gum!

Tony Bennett says President Bush confided Iraq War ‘a mistake’ This is the same entertainer that once described America as “culturally void”. Which always struck us as an odd distinction for a singer-of-other-peoples-songs to make.

Obama endorses ending 1 day of mail delivery
Obama endorses ending 1 day of mail delivery. Isn’t it funny. The only time this man seems interested in cuts is when it comes to Constitutionally sanctioned programs that provide at least some return service to the tax payer. Sure, maybe the Post Office is a concept that has passed us by and needs to be restructured or even shut down. But it is hardly the first thing on the list that needs to be cut. But that is par for the norm. As always with Obamanomics “the first to pay are last to play”.
Greek default could tip US into recession
Experts warn Greek default could tip US into recession. Don’t you just love economists who expect you to believe that the economy has recovered and we’re not in a recession? What are they going to tell us next . . . creating a trillion dollars out of nowhere won’t result in massive inflation?
Rap Video: My EBT
My EBT the Rap! We’re a bit conflicted about this video. On one hand it seems to promote a lifestyle that punishes the tax payers and keeps its “beneficiaries” beholden to the state and trapped in a hardly ever ending cycle of disappointment and failure. On the other this guy is pretty damn funny and his song is likely to do more to raise awareness about the problem of massive welfare fraud than any number of articles appearing in Townhall or Reason Magazine. Be warned, this video contains some explicit lyrics.
The lost Solyndra grant proposal

Huffpo upset: States Struggle For Money, Political Will To Fix America’s Failing Roads. Of course this begs the classic question . . . if they couldn’t be trusted to fix the roads with the first several trillion dollars they took from us why should they be trusted with more?
Obama admin reworked Solyndra loan to favor donor
The Obama administration restructured a half-billion dollar federal loan to a troubled solar energy company in such a way that private investors — including a fundraiser for President Barack Obama — moved ahead of taxpayers for repayment in case of a default, government records show. Yep, we plan on keeping a spot light on Solargate. One that is, unfortunately for the President, not powered by Solyndra tech.
Rahm Emanuel shows who has the authority in authoritarian health care
Mayor Thug (Rahm Emanuel) has decided to use health care as a method of controlling the off time lives of city workers. But we can imagine an era in the not so distant future when just such a mechanism is used against all citizens. Such is the almost inevitable result of a health care system that exists solely to buy the votes of the tax eaters with the labor of the tax slaves.

Happy birthday Citizen Kane!
This year marks the 70th anniversary of the classic movie, Citizen Kane, which many consider to be the greatest movie ever made. Just don’t ask Obama to explain the significance of “Rosebud”. No doubt President Puffnstuff thinks it’s one of the things he and Larry Sinclair used to smoke in the back of the limo.
