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.

Path to Prosperity: Land Of The Dead
GOP Budget Plan The plan would slash federal spending by $5 trillion or more over the coming decade. It would leave Social Security untouched but shift more of the risk from rising medical costs from the government to Medicare beneficiaries. It also calls for sharp cuts to
Medicaid health care for the poor and disabled and to food aid for the poor.
