Election Impressions »

(Bumped up from Wednesday.)
Here are impressions from all over the ‘net, even bloggers like the yoyo Taylor Marsh and sensible shoes columnist Ruth Marcus:

The Obama invincibility that was so much in evidence then seems to have lost its power. People can argue the [...]

“have you no wisdom thus to despair?” »

(Bumped up from Friday night.)
“[R]ecognizing the last full measure of devotion from these soldiers is the right thing for a President to do,” writes Hot Air’s Ed Morrissey. Curiously, like most pundits, Morrissey believes Obama’s trip to Dover was about a nod to the military in Afghanistan and to Gen. McChrystal.

Then Morrissey adds, “Let’s hope [...]

Is now the American Way, apparently. [See my update at the end of the article about the "way" of the Obama administration that is antithetical to America.] Note this from Kimberley Strassel’s column, “The Chicago Way,” in today’s Wall Street Journal:

Fox News — especially commentator and columnist Charles Krauthammer — and a few other media outlets have pointed out that doctors cannot make ends meet if their patients are primarily on Medicare or Medicaid.

A token is a token. Especially for a token leader. However, it IS the American flag. And at the least it should be straight:

Damn straight.

A 9/11 Mother Gets No Response From Obama »

Kos Spanks Harry Reid »

It’s well known that Senate majority leader Harry Reid is in trouble in his own state of Nevada, and that even his son (photo left) is running third in the primary contest for governor of Nevada.

Why Is the White House Targeting Fox News? »

(bumped up from this morning)
You may have heard recently that the White House has been targeting Fox News. No doubt, in their minds, they have their reasons for it. Why that might be is a mystery to me and, critically, I find it utterly antithetical to the Constitution that protects the Fourth Estate.
One analyst I [...]
