Obama Slamming GOP

"I said, 'You want to repeal health care? Go at it. We'll have that debate. You're not going to be able to do that by nickel-and-diming me in the budget. You think we're stupid? When Paul Ryan says his priority is to make sure, he's just being America's accountant ... This is the same guy that voted for two wars that were unpaid for, voted for the Bush tax cuts that were unpaid for, voted for the prescription drug bill that cost as much as my health care bill--but wasn't paid for,".......President Obama

Tax Day: Make Them Pay

This is a rally whereby we will deliver a tax bill to Bank of America to pay up and pay their fair share just as we do year after year. Our country isn’t broke.
What is broke is a political system that allows corporations to skimp out on paying taxes.

Conservatives And Their Large Amygdala

Using data from MRI scans, researchers at the University College London found that self-described liberals have a larger anterior cingulate cortex--a gray matter of the brain associated with understanding complexity. Meanwhile, self-described conservatives are more likely to have a larger amygdala, an almond-shaped area that is associated with fear and anxiety.

Gulf Of Mexico: Invertebrate Graveyard

Dead dolphins continue to wash ashore along the gulf coast and now a lot of sea turtles, most of them rare Kemp's ridleys. Despite the passage of 12 months, evidence of the spill's effects remain in the gulf. A recent study of the area around the spill by University of Georgia scientist Samantha Joye found dead corals, crabs and sea stars scattered on the sea floor, along with strings of bacterial slime.

Obama Picks Blue Dog Debbie Wasserman Schultz

To Head The DNC
When Democratic National Committee Chairman Tim Kaine resigned on Tuesday to run for a U.S. Senate seat in Virginia, President Barack Obama chose Florida Blue Dog
Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, as the new DNC chairwoman.

--------------
Ask Ms. Schultz about her tenure as head of the Red to Blue program and her lack of support for candidates like Joe Garcia, Annette Taddeo and Doug Tudor. Ms. Schultz has repeatedly said that she cannot publicly support the three Democratic candidates who ran to unseat some of the worst Bush Republicans in the US House of Representatives: Mario Diaz-Balart, Lincoln Diaz-Balart, and Ileana Ros-Lehtinen. Progressives Are Doomed! Obama Can Count Me Out.
