...crossing.
I’m crossing mine that this picture is for real.

On June 25th, Move America Forward will be holding our 2nd annual Troopathon airing from 1:00 to 9:00 PM (PDT)

This cutting edge live webcast event brings together talk radio hosts, megastars of film and television, musical guests, journalists, military and Gold-star families, pro-troop groups and many more.

The goal of this charity fundraiser is to send the largest ever shipment of care packages to our brave men and women of the armed forces serving in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Guantanamo Bay.

Viewers are encouraged to sponsor care packages (donations are tax deductible) for the troops and each one includes a personalized message and items that our troops have requested that make their life a little easier while they are far from home, such as sun-screen, Gatorade, deodorant, coffee, cookies and much more.

if there were a media to spread the word....

It required a brain surgeon....

Dr. Orrin Devinsky, a neurologist and researcher at the New York University Langone Medical Center, said that elites often propose health care solutions that limit options for the general public, secure in the knowledge that if they or their loves ones get sick, they will be able to afford the best care available, even if it’s not provided by insurance.

Devinsky asked the president pointedly if he would be willing to promise that he wouldn’t seek such extraordinary help for his wife or daughters if they became sick and the public plan he’s proposing limited the tests or treatment they can get.

The president refused to make such a pledge, though he allowed that if “it’s my family member, if it’s my wife, if it’s my children, if it’s my grandmother, I always want them to get the very best care.

...as opposed to the diagnosis by chicken entrails and cure via random herbs we offer you little people…

“Ya can’t judge sprit ...”

HA

Even ∏eh iW∅n©^DM‘s veryown MD disapproves.

scam not so wow

The one-hour ABC News special “Primetime: Questions for the President: Prescription for America” (4.7 million viewers, 1.1 preliminary adults 18-49 rating) had the fewest viewers in the 10 p.m. hour. The special tied some 8 p.m. comedy repeats as the lowest-rated program on a major broadcast network.

Felony charges have been filed and an arrest warrant issued for a well-known Orange County political activist suspected of committing election and voter registration fraud, the California secretary of State’s office announced Wednesday.

Investigators in the agency’s election-fraud unit said Nativo V. Lopez, 57, of Santa Ana leased office space in Boyle Heights and registered to vote using that address although he lived with his family in Orange County. They also say Lopez, president of the Mexican American Political Assn., cast an illegal ballot in L.A. in the 2008 presidential primary...........

The AFL-CIO is passing around these hard hats today to every office on Capitol Hill…

The only YouTube I can find of the press conference shows Fox identifying him as an “R”. (see second image) Now, I could accept that one Fox affiliate may have gotten it wrong… it’s possible. But also, it should be pointed out that photoshopping a change like that is ridiculously easy.......

Millions of people living in nearly 600 neighborhoods across the country are breathing concentrations of toxic air pollutants that put them at a much greater risk of contracting cancer, according to new data from the Environmental Protection Agency.

Parts of Los Angeles, Calif., and Madison County, Ill., had the highest cancer risks in the nation—1200 in 1 million and 1100 in 1 million, according to the EPA data. They were followed by two neighborhoods in Allegheny County, Pa., and one in Tuscaloosa County, Ala.

People living in parts of Coconino County, Ariz., and Lyon County, Nev., had the lowest cancer risk from air toxics. The counties with the least toxic air are Kalawao County, Hawaii, and
Golden Valley County, Mont.

whadda wee-ner

a Justice Department lawyer actually argued to a federal district court judge that there should be an exemption from Freedom of Information Act disclosure rules for documents that would subject senior administration officials to embarrassment—as in on late-night television.

Yer actually whinging about Leno jokes?  srsly?

Wouldn’t it just be easier to promote the meme that “∏eh iW∅n©^DM isn’t funny?”

oh....  wait.

...the Obama Justice Department is fighting the release of a transcript of former vice president Dick Cheney’s testimony to special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald about his role in the outing of Valerie Plame as a CIA agent.

Didn’t we determine, like, years ago that it was Richard Armatage that dropped the dime on the not-so-secret-squirrel Plame?

Oh, my head… I’ve been overcome by The Narrative, again. I need a nice lie down.

seeking the counsel of a wise latina?

And this is what ya say about it all on TV??  rly?!?

The Peter Principle reasserts itself.

Congress fails to stem greenhouse gas emissions

This is worth a gajillion Cap&Trades.

Look!  A Moose!!!

While we’re supposed to be looking over here [manufactured complete with hand-gauged “right-wing” outrage factor], what’s really happening is over there:

House lawmakers are getting closer to a vote on a sweeping energy bill that would cap greenhouse gases, with a vote possible on Friday,

Call and write today.

“Under the guise of reducing carbon emissions, Democrats are poised to force anyone who drives a car, buys an American-made product, or flips on a light switch to pay a national energy tax,” wrote House Republican Leader John Boehner

Yeah.  And that’s only the beginning of it.  And for No Discernible Benefit.  To Anyone.

...except Algore.

U.S. House Ag Committee Chairman Collin Peterson and authors of the Waxman-Markey cap-and-trade bill have reached an agreement that would allow farmers and ranchers to participate in a market-based carbon offset program. According to Peterson, the agreement also addresses concerns about indirect land-use provisions that target U.S. crop producers and exempts agriculture from the definition of a capped sector.  ...Details of the agriculture agreement are not yet available.

Great.  Now I can get rid of all those pesky [yet delicious] cows and plant me some inedible but potentially lucrative carbon credits....

The White House announced Wednesday that it has rescinded the invitations made to Iranian diplomats who may want to barbecue and watch fireworks to celebrate Independence Day.
