I caught a History Channel documentary on the legacy of Star Wars recently, which says a lot about what they consider historic. Anyway, the documentary featured commentary by politicians, including Newt Gingrich and Nancy Pelosi. In describing the triumph of Luke Skywalker's Rebel Alliance over the Empire, Pelosi said this: "The power always belongs to the people, and that is where anyone who has power derives it from." Clumsy phrasing I know, but compare her words to her actions when the American Rebel Alliance, aka the Tea Partiers, raise their voices. She sounds more like an Emo Darth Vader. Remember this?

What's Obama Been Up To?
Today marks 27 days since Gen. Stanley McChrystal officially asked for more troops to win the War on Terror in Afghanistan. The President has been too busy to give him an answer...he's been doing stuff...like dancing with Thalia and stargazing on the South Lawn. Oh, and he attended Democratic fundraisers on both coasts. By the way, Mr. President, 30 American heroes have given their lives in combat since the request has been made.I've posted the full story at Examiner.com, which you can read by CLICKING HERE.

When Liberals Run!
Lost in all the health care hoopla is a move to get to the bottom of the Countrywide scandal, in which some Democratic members of Congress, including Chris Dodd and Kent Conrad, got sweetheart deals on mortgages in return for political favors. When Republican Rep. Daniel Issa called for a vote to subpoena records of possible phone call recordings that could shed light on the scandal, the Democratic members in the Oversight Committee took off out the back door. Love that Democratic transparency! Check out the video:
Gee, Thanks Hillary....
Secretary of State Clinton,Thanks so much for taking time out to record that video for Conan O'Brien and the Tonight Show. I know that was on top of everyone's "to-do" list. Any chance you're gonna get around to that Afghanistan/War on Terror thing now?

Now He Has to Earn It
Giving President Obama the Nobel Peace Prize is like giving an Oscar to someone based on a movie trailer.Let's see, Ghandi never won one, but Obama, Al Gore, Jimmy Carter, and renowned terrorist Yasser Arafat did. Somebody tell the Jonas Brothers to clear their mantle: I'm sure they're the front runners for next year.
I wonder how this will affect Obama's decision to send troops to Afghanistan to wage non-peace.
Score one for the good guys

The Olympics Are Racist...Mmm...Mmm...Mmm
Chicago lost the Olympics? But I thought everyone loved Obama. Wasn't his election supposed to win back the respect of the rest of the world? Even after he told them in his pitch to the Olympic committee how much he would love to see the event just outside his Chicago front door? Don't they want to make him happy? What a bunch of racists.Over at MSNBC, anchors were upset over all the Republicans who were openly celebrating the loss because it made Obama look bad. Never mind that no Republican had said anything about it. They just made it up. Wow...even bloggers like us have higher journalistic standards.
