Last night, I went to set up the VCR to record “24″ (I know, I live in the stone age) and caught the last few minutes of President Obama’s press conference.
Thanks to the wonders of the amazing internet workers, I was able to find a YouTube clip of the segment I saw.
NPR’s Mara Liasson asked [...]
This doesn’t look good.
Via, Washington Times:
President Obama’s economic recovery package will actually hurt the economy more in the long run than if he were to do nothing, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office said Wednesday.
CBO, the official scorekeepers for legislation, said the House and Senate bills will help in the short term but result in so [...]
He likes it warm. You could grow orchids in there.
That was David Axelrod on why President Barack “Shared Sacrifice” Obama has the heat cranked in the Oval Office, so much so that he needed to remove his suit coat.
You could not grow orchids in here, that’s for sure. I keep the thermostat at a sultry [...]
Crafting is my bliss. Besides politics, it is my favorite thing in life. But it’s better than politics because it’s useful and doesn’t make you want to slap people and call them bad names.
When the political blogosphere starts to drive me mad, I escape to the “crafting” folder in my feed reader for solace.

I have been trying to look past my own disagreements with the people who will be running [...]
Ann Althouse has a very interesting, yet disturbing, post about Obama’s cardboard boob-grabbing speech writer, Jon Favreau. You just have to read it. It is unreal.
Admit it! You’re jealous of Jon Favreau!
Not really. I am jealous of Ann Althouse, though. I always wanted to study law. Now I just want to have the time to [...]
After the almost two year presidential race, finally, someone in the mainstream media admits that Barack Obama is “young and inexperienced.”
