Since I’ve slagged him fairly mercilessly in this space, I would be remiss not to mention the passing of Rep. John P. Murtha.

As I write, these are the top two stories listed on Real Clear Politics: Blame the Childish, Ignorant American Public – Jacob Weisberg, Slate Why Are Liberals So Condescending? – Gerard Alexander, Washington Post If you put that in a novel, an editor would reject it as far too unsubtle to be realistic…
Zombie ObamaCare Still Lurching About Capitol Hill, Seeking Brains Votes
You would have thought that Scott Brown’s election would have caused even the dimmest bulbs among Congressional Democrats to give up on showing ObamaCare down the throat of a nation violently opposed to it. You’d be wrong.

Left-Winger Rips Obama a New One

John Edwards, Scumbag
The news of Sen. John Edwards marital affairs will probably not be news to anyone who has followed the story, but the details in Andrew Young’s book The Politician seem to make him out to be an even bigger scumbag than even his fiercest critics on the right thought he was. Contempt for the people… Continue reading John Edwards, Scumbag

25% of Massachusetts Voters Expect ACORN to Commit Election Fraud
According to left-leaning Public Policy Polling. Also, even 1 in 6 Democrats expect ACORN to commit election fraud. Funny, all those Democratic apologists loudly claiming that “registration fraud doesn’t equal voting fraud” don’t seem to be changing the minds of voters who have to suffer the continuing indignity of only casting a single vote…

For the Obama Administration, your health John Murtha’s Pals Come First
Remember Rep. John Murtha? The congressman who called his own constituents racists? You know, the John Murtha who sits as the chairman of the House Appropriations defense subcommittee? The John Murtha whose nephew got $4 million in no-bid Defense contracts? The man at the center of the PMA Group lobbying scandal?
