I Wake up in the Morning.....

Damn right! Take on these fake ass Dems.

Liberal coalition targets conservative 'Blue Dog' Democrats:

"A coalition of liberal groups – the Campaign for America's Future and USAction – have begun a campaign to pressure congressmen and senators to support Obama's ambitious budget proposal and 'stand up to the special interests.' But here's the twist: The groups aren't focusing on Republicans right now – they're challenging 'Blue Dog' Democrats like Sen. Evan Bayh (D-Ind.), who they say are too influenced by lobbyists."

Stewart and Colbert are way more informative than the 'traditional media' any way, so no surprise.

The Most Comprehensive Public Opinion Data Anywhere:

"Nearly one-third of Americans under the age of 40 say satirical news-oriented television programs like The Colbert Report and The Daily Show with Jon Stewart are taking the place of traditional news outlets."

The end of drug prohibition will create a new set of problems, but at least it will cut down on violence, bring safety measures to the quality of drugs and pour money into state and federal coffers

Harvard economist: Prohibition creates violence, legalize all drugs:

"'Prohibition creates violence because it drives the drug market underground,' he wrote in an essay published by CNN on Tuesday. 'This means buyers and sellers cannot resolve their disputes with lawsuits, arbitration or advertising, so they resort to violence instead.

'Violence was common in the alcohol industry when it was banned during Prohibition, but not before or after.'

Miron's proposed solution to ending the cartel war along the US-Mexico border is both simple and enormously complex.

'Violence is the norm in illicit gambling markets but not in legal ones. Violence is routine when prostitution is banned but not when it's permitted,' he wrote. 'Violence results from policies that create black markets, not from the characteristics of the good or activity in question.

'The only way to reduce violence, therefore, is to legalize drugs."

Didn't the DEA get the freakin' memo from Holder and Obama?

Though, there could be some legitimate illegal activity that occurred, but still...

Jabba the Nut. Nice.

Also nice put down in two paragraphs. Spot-on

Rush Limbaugh wins 'unsexiest' man of the year award:

"Rush Limbaugh, mocked as 'Jabba the Nut' by free weekly Boston Phoenix, has been selected as the ugliest man of the year by the paper. The 99 runner-up unsexiest men of the year can be purviewed at this link.

'America’s ugliest moment of 2009? Rush Limbaugh, his man-boobs a-jiggle, bouncing at the CPAC podium to bask in the sickly glow of conservatism’s orgy of greed, avarice, and arrogance,' the paper writes. 'Here, at last, was the shining image of the 21st century Republican Party: a leeringly rich Baby Boomer squatting at the top of the mountain, reaping his jollies from the suffering of those at the bottom, praying for the failure of hope.

'If this hypocritical and morally repugnant reformed Oxy junkie wants to discuss “failure,” maybe we should talk about his career as an NFL commentator — or the last time he detoxed off prescription smack,' they add."
