Austan Goolsbee Exit: Obama Advisor Leaves Behind Frustration, Political Dysfunction

If you must continue to delude yourself into thinking Obama's a good guy who never would have started those wars, and who has only the best of intentions (I don't share that opinion anymore), but got a bad deal, then think of all this as a business plan where the Corporate Masters of the Universe have charted out their plans years in advance (governmen­ts do them, too) and select the politician­/personali­ty best able to achieve those plans in 4 year increments­. If you want to lie the country into war for oil and war-profit­eering, then George W. Bush is your man to front it (with Dick Cheney, the former Secretary of Defense who initiated the privatizin­g of the military a decade earlier, actually running the operation from the shadows). 

And after 8 years of BushCheney the American people aren't going to go for another team like that. They're going to want HOPE and CHANGE, with a persona they can believe in and trust. BarackObam­a.

The truth is that Obama is no better than BushCheney­. Not better, not worse, but the same. His 'most ardent admirers' just like the packaging better. I'm not talking skin color, although that may be a factor for some of them; I'm talking about how a 'D' after the name is a brand they trust believe and trust in, despite the fact that it's the same 'soap' (product).

Anthony Weiner Press Conference: Admits Sending Racy Pictures, Refuses To Resign

Isn't that the photo of the bare-chest­ed Weiner at his desk (over Weiner's left shoulder) of him with Bill Clinton?

This story just has more legs, more fodder for late night jokesters, and eclipses all of the issues Weiner claims to care about.

He's got to resign.

Steven Spielberg: Ronald Reagan Said 'E.T.' Was Real, Was Probably Joking

NY Representa­tive Anthony Weiner said he had inappropri­ate relationsh­ips with 6 women online. Sometimes the affair was done through email, sometimes through Twitter, sometimes through Facebook, and sometimes on the phone.

He said he never met any of these women in person. He also said he never had sex outside of marriage.

During his e-affairs, he said inappropri­ate photos were sent by him to the women. He said sometimes he initiated the affairs and sometimes he was contacted. He said he met most of the women through Facebook.

He also admitted that the lewd photo was of him and that he (not a hacker) sent it on Twitter.  However, he meant to send the photo to someone else, not the 21-year-ol­d female college student in Seattle.


I'm sad to say that the man has a problem, and, of course, he has to resign.
