Maybe there's hope yet for the press. I hope Obama keeps Gibbs around the whole 4 years, he's immensely entertaining. Especially when he's cornered. And he's flirting with disaster when he tangles with Helen Thomas.

GOP's Coleman concedes, sending Franken to Senate

Quote
ST. PAUL, Minn. – Republican Norm Coleman conceded to Democrat Al Franken in Minnesota's contested Senate race Tuesday, hours after a unanimous state Supreme Court ruled the former "Saturday Night Live" comedian should be certified the winner.

Coleman announced his decision at a news conference in St. Paul, bringing an end to a nearly eight-month recount and court fight over an election decided by only a few hundred votes.

"The Supreme Court has made its decision and I will abide by the results," Coleman told reporters outside his St. Paul home.

Franken, accompanied by his wife, told reporters outside his downtown Minneapolis town house that "Franni and I are so thrilled that we can finally celebrate this victory."

"I can't wait to get started," he added. "I've been trying to keep abreast of what's going on, and I'll do the best I can"

Congratulations to Franken and the rest of the Democrats for their "victory". You now have no excuse for not saving this country and the world. It's no longer a matter of who's right and who's wrong. It's now a matter of whether the Democrats are right or not. I guess we get to find out now.

Sen. Inhofe Calls for Inquiry Into 'Suppressed' Climate Change Report

Quote
A top Republican senator has ordered an investigation into the Environmental Protection Agency's alleged suppression of a report that questioned the science behind global warming.

The 98-page report, co-authored by EPA analyst Alan Carlin, pushed back on the prospect of regulating gases like carbon dioxide as a way to reduce global warming. Carlin's report argued that the information the EPA was using was out of date, and that even as atmospheric carbon dioxide levels have increased, global temperatures have declined.

"He came out with the truth. They don't want the truth at the EPA," Sen. James Inhofe, R-Okla, a global warming skeptic, told FOX News, saying he's ordered an investigation. "We're going to expose it."

Further evidence that the Democrats are less interested in science than they are implementing their evil plan to impose rules, regulation, taxation, and control on every part of our lives...mwahahaha!...er...I mean their benevolent plan to save mankind from a fate worse than death: more abundant vegetables.

I was going to post this in Humor, but then I got to thinking that this would actually make a pretty good debate topic. Read the following:



Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists and Obama supporters, et al:

We have stuck together since the late 1950's, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce. I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship has run its course. Our two ideological sides of
America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right so let's just end it on friendly terms. We can smile and chalk it up to irreconcilable differences and go our own way.

Here is a model separation agreement:

Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass each taking a portion.  That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement.  After that, it should be relatively easy!  Our
respective representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate tastes.

We don't like redistributive taxes so you can keep them.  You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU.  Since you hate guns and war, we'll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA and the military. You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie O'Donnell (You are, however, responsible for finding a
bio-diesel vehicle big enough to move all three of them).

We'll keep the capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical and manufacturing companies, Wal-Mart and Wall Street.  You can have your beloved homeless, homeboys, hippies and illegal aliens.  We'll keep the Alaskan hockey moms, the few honest  CEO's and rednecks.  We'll keep the Bibles and give you all of NBC and   Hollywood .

China's banks are an accident waiting to happen to every one of us

Quote
So the regime is resorting to hazardous methods to keep excess factories humming: issuing a "Buy China" decree: using a plethora of export subsidies; holding down the price of coke, bauxite, zinc and other resources to lower production costs (prompting a complaint from America and Europe); and suppressing the yuan, again.

Protectionism is a risky game for a country that lives off global trade and runs a surplus near 10pc of GDP. Mr Pettis said he fears China is nearing its "Smoot-Hawley moment", repeating the US tariff blunder of 1930 that brought the world crashing down on Washington's head.

This is the scary stuff. This is what had a great deal to do with the Great Depression. If China goes protectionist I think it'll be the final straw in a stressed world economy. Already they are depressing prices on key commodities.
