I will never accept the revisionist history being peddled by the O-bots, and I am very worried about a man who apparently is so narcissistic he needs constant ego gratification. Man, this is bad. Really bad. Even though I saw it coming from a mile away, I have to say that I didn't want Obama to wreck himself -- I just wanted him to bow out, and get out of Sen. Clinton's way. He didn't, and he has chosen the bed in which he now lies. Unfortunately for us, we are now tied to that bed and need him to be much more competent than he is capable of being . . . this is not a good situation, and I don't see it becoming much better any time too soon. Articles like yours, Ani, make things more tolerable, and for that I thank you. Keep it up. Right on, Ani.

The green papers has it at 17. Even if it were as much as 59 -- which I sincerely doubt -- the fact is neither of them had enough to take the nomination and it should have been decided at the convention. So, yes, it was stolen. I think the real number difference was under 20 in any case. Statistically insignificant.

While she was house minority leader and could do little more than bite Bush in the arse with her statements, she landed all her punches. When she became Speaker and we took back the majority, suddenly it was all kissy face and she accomplished nothing. No oversight. She needs to be relieved of her Speakership. And quickly. Her lockout behavior is a disaster. That is not the example the "new leadership" wants to set of putting something of this magnitude together behind closed doors and then passing it without one bi-partisan vote. She is the biggest reason we do not have Hillary as President now, in my view. She did everything in her power to undermine Hillary behind the scenes and on every talk show as well.

Reality is reality. I wish him well, for all our sakes, but the man is in over his head and he is just doing the same ole Washington two-step. Nothing new to see here. As was pointed out the other day, "Scaring people is not leadership." Sour grapes, no. Deep concern for our future, yes.

He blames her for the pork fat crappy bill that is making him look bad and is berating her. She is screaming she regrets getting him elected. Apparently it's pretty bad. Well, I can't stand Obama, but if those buffoons throw Pelosi under the bus the country benefits and has a slightly better chance of surviving. I have no idea who voted in this Pelosi mess, but reading that article from trixta and the Peggy Noonan article that jangles pointed us to, it seems like she is next to go. Can't wait to see her fly out of DC on her electric broom. I posted this earlier…My friend up in San Francisco says that Pelosi and Obama are at each other’s throats.

Cold warrior Henry Kissinger woos Russia for Barack Obama

Henry Kissinger, the pioneer of Cold War detente during the Nixon era, has made a return to frontline politics after President Barack Obama reportedly sent him to Moscow to win backing from Vladimir Putin’s government for a nuclear disarmament initiative.

“plus ça change, plus c’ est la même chose”:
“The more things change, the more they remain the same.”
- Jean-Baptiste Alphonse Karr.
