"2010 was the year of arsonists posing as firemen, of people railing against deficits while doing
everything they could to make those deficits bigger. And I don’t just mean politicians. Did you
notice the U-turn many political commentators and others made when the tax-cut was announced?
One day deficits were the great evil and the next day $800 billion in debt-financed tax cuts, with the
prospect of more to come, was the greathing since sliced bread, a triumph of bipartisanship. “

"We need to have a showdown - we're not going to increase our debt ceiling anymore.
We are going to cut things necessary to stay within the current levels, which is over $14 trillion.
So this needs to be a big showdown."
-- SC's Senator Jim DeMint (R-mental patient), suggesting America default on it's obligations, Link
Hey Jim, can I ask a question?
Say you're trying to balance the household budget, because you really need to cut back.
Do you cancel water, gas and electric service to your home?
Do you tell the kids that you're not buying any more food?
Or do you cancel that new Escalade purchase and the two-week vacation in Hawaii?
If you're serious about the debt, repeal that trillion dollar bonus for the super-rich.
Quotes
"This is not a game. The debt ceiling is not something to toy with. If we hit the debt ceiling,
that's essentially defaulting on our obligations, which is totally unprecedented in American history.
The impact on the economy would be catastrophic. That would be a worse financial economic crisis
than anything we saw in 2008. If we get to the point where you've damaged the full faith and credit
of the United States, that would be the first default in history caused purely by insanity."

Happy New Year Bart.
I think you were a bit off on your Republican glue comment.
It's more like two part epoxy. Add equal amounts of part A (hate)
to part B (fear) and you have a solid Republican.

"I meet with students at even the K-12 level in their entirety, and I'll ask them,
'Where do you stand on the abortion issue?'"
-- Rep Steve King (R-HJ) who thinks Kindergartners should have an opinion on abortion Link
Hey Steve, I have an opinion - want to hear it?
When it comes to abortion, I'm for smaller government.
Why do you bigger-government types think Washington always knows better
than America's heartland doctors and small town folk who want to be left alone?

Geez, it's almost like they're lying.
I don't think they should be allowed to
sell you "A" and then serve you "B."
Sometimes more government is good.
Subject: the hit on Helen Thomas
<snippage>
Helen Thomas went too far, and subsequently was crucified by the very media that abetted her
rise to prominence. She could have been the better person and criticized Israel's policies without
suggesting that individuals return to countries that persecuted them less than a century ago.
She wasn't talking about Jews returning to Germany.
Why would you suggest that she was?
I guess it's possible that two honest people could read different things into her remarks,
but I heard her talking about rich American Jews who go to Israel and then complain about
how their lives are in danger when all they needed to be safe was to stay where they were.
That's why she suggested they "go back where they came from."
<snippage>
I liked Helen Thomas' articles (but) that does not give her a free pass.
Lenin, Hitler, and Mao were authors, too.
Chris
Was the Hitler reference really necessary?
I'm pretty sure Helen Thomas never executed anybody.
This reminds me of Clinton's Jesse Jackson 2008 comments in South Carolina.
Every word Clinton said was 100% true but Team Obama and the whore press
had never seen such gross and outrageous and overt racism in their entire lives.
Rachel Maddow was near tears on her radio show and she seemed to be having
trouble breathing because she was trying to wrap her head around just how
horribly racist Bill's comments were.

I remember that. On 9-11, I was a college student majoring in journalism (I changed my major
after the 04 election, smartest move I ever made). I started writing down everything that the
media reported that morning.
I heard that the first tower fell from Howard Stern, while Dan Rather was still reporting that
there was a plane on the runway with a bomb on board in Cleveland, and a car bomb parked
in front of the State Department.
Stern was magnificent that morning, taking calls directly from listeners reporting the history
they were watching unfold from their roofs and fire escapes. I never understood why the
right-wing hates Stern so much. At his worst, he's a naughty 12 year old, but at his best
he's a master satirist and a genuine talent.

“Mike Palecek reminds me of Socrates the gadfly who asked unwelcome questions, Diogenes with his
lantern looking in vain for an honest man, Chekhov the man with the hammer challenging the complacent
family to share their meal, Kerouac the ever on the move, somewhat hysterical searcher, and he reminds
me of many Americans who as children were so blasted with propaganda that they’re devoting the rest of
their lives to challenging the lies and all who tell them. In this land where babies are brought by storks
and buildings collapse due to unpatriotic bricks, we need the gadfly because no leader, preacher, guru
or saint will wake us up, though the Doomsday clock is ticking close to twelve.”

Bart, last issue's History Mystery is Audie Murphy....one of 12 children of Texas sharecroppers.
He lied his way into the military after Pearl Harbor (he wasn't yet 18) and was initially rejected for
combat because they thought he was too slightly built. When he finally saw combat, he became
the most decorated soldier in WW II, a Medal of Honor winner. After the war, he became a
movie star, and died in a plane crash at the age of 46, in 1971.
