GOP Character Assassination Time: The Teleprompter Meme is Part of a Decades Long Campaign -- BuzzFlash Editor's Blog by Mark Karlin

A morbid polarization -- P.M. Carpenter, Exclusively for BuzzFlash.com on February 9 That Washington is broken is clear enough. What frightens, however, is that increasingly it seems beyond repair.

The folks in the upper-income group are not suffering much, if at all, from the profound reversals in employment brought about by the Great Recession. Those in the middle have been hit hard. The job losses there have been severe and long-lasting. But for those in the lower-income groups, the scale of the employment crisis has been mind-boggling."

A federal agency has hired the nation's top union-busting law firm but refuses to say for how much money or whether stimulus funds were used to pay the retainer, according to a summary judgment motion filed today by Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER) in its lawsuit under the Freedom of Information Act.

Jim DeMint Turning Into an ATM Cash Cow for Right Wing Nut Job GOP Politicians

Great Krugman: "It should be a simple message (and it should have been the central message in Massachusetts): a vote for a Republican, no matter what you think of him as a person, is a vote for paralysis. But by now, we know how the Obama administration deals with those who would destroy it: it goes straight for the capillaries. Sure enough, Robert Gibbs, the White House press secretary, accused Mr. Shelby of “silliness.” Yep, that will really resonate with voters. After the dissolution of Poland, a Polish officer serving under Napoleon penned a song that eventually — after the country’s post-World War I resurrection — became the country’s national anthem. It begins, “Poland is not yet lost.” Well, America is not yet lost. But the Senate is working on it."

Bush. He is the author of "Against All Enemies" and "Your Government Failed You."

A Federal Effort to Push Junk Food Out of Schools. To fight obesity, legislation would ban candy and sugary beverages, and many schools would be required to offer more nutritious fare. Another positive step in the Obama Administration compared to the Rethugs.
