— andy So titled because it adds an identical amount of new content to the blog as one of Obama's speeches does to our national discourse.
Except for the comments, of course. But Breitbart has the naming rights to those.

there is literally no news to report from the current emergency fix for Greece-ie they have announced that there will be no news.
Maybe everyone's just taking a nap today.

Even though the SCOAMF makes it look so easy, doing nothing is way harder than it looks.

"The President’s partisan speech and misguided proposals are disappointing, but not surprising. Having overseen an unprecedented surge in government spending – from his failed stimulus law, to the creation of new trillion-dollar health entitlements, to double-digit percentage increases in the budgets of many federal agencies – the President has finally admitted that he plans to send the bill for Washington’s reckless spending straight to American businesses and families."
He later mentions Obama's earlier proposals, as well as Solyndra.

Dem Rep. Mike Quigely (D-IL) to the American Islamic College Conference in Chicago: “I think it’s appropriate for me to apologize on behalf of this country for the discrimination you face.”
And I think it's appropriate for me to tell you to f*ck off on behalf of every sane person in this country, Rep. Quigely.

Can anyone shed some light for me here? Using IE (latest version), signing in took about 3secs. The latest FF takes a full 4minutes--I timed it--what is that all about? Ever since FF updated from 3.6, this has become a recurring problem. None of the troubleshooting fixes did shit. It's getting to the point that when I see the phrase "new and improved" pertaining to ANYTHING it makes me cringe.

Back when I was making around $50k a year, I barely paid any federal taxes. No more than a couple thousand a year. Last I checked, 4% was less than 15%.
I certainly didn't pay over $7500 per year.

*ps if you know of a family business that needs to sell so that they can pay their taxes, unlike me, because the owner died please let me know. That's how I built my business. I am a vulture and that's why I favor higher inheritance tax. It's no fun unless you can f-ck over the greiving family by the barrel of the government gun.

Rub it with olive oil and sprinkle it with Cavender's Greek seasoning. Pop it in the oven for 35 minutes at 400 degrees or until the internal temp is 160. It's easy, and it tastes great.
Ooh, that sounds yummy. Someone else said to stud it with garlic. Maybe I'll do that too.

That's not right. I know Bachman is at times a little batshit. However, she is not Romney supporting Batshit. That's some real world I can't function batshit.
I can think of at least two reasons as to why Flake would endorse Romney:
(1) Electability
(2) Common faith
