A Deep Divide Separated by Plenty of Common Ground

Read the whole piece and you realize just how centrist Obama's proposals are and just how insane the current GOP leadership is:

Obama: Tougher On Al Qaeda Than Bush

"In a matter of months, both leaders of the Qaeda-allied Taliban in Pakistan have been targeted and killed by US drone attacks. The latest was in retaliation for the murder of CIA officials in a suicide attack by a double agent who turned on the US. If you add this record - and there are many examples of similar surgical strikes decapitating Qaeda figures in the last year - to the ramp-up of forces in Afghanistan and overhaul of strategy there, I think you can make a very solid case that in the war on Jihadist terrorism, Obama is proving far more effective - in both soft and hard power - than the Bush administration ever was.

The Republicans will not concede this, because their war is not really at this point on al Qaeda. It's on Obama."

2 Face Politics (Twitter Style)

Here's a twitter quote from North Carolina Republican Congresswoman Virginia Foxx. Amazing. They demonize him to their constituents and then shake hands and ask for autographs. Wow.

"Pres gave us another lecture. Our guys asked great questions. Need independent fact checker for his comments. Got autograph" -Cong. Virginia Foxx on Twitter

Network News

Another reason to avoid network news. . .

Republican Party of No

"On every single major issue of the day, they are incoherent. They have no workable plans to insure the uninsured and no practical way to contain healthcare costs; most deny climate change even exists; most seek to prolong wars because ... er, we have to be tough; their response to the massive debt is to defend Medicare and call for tax cuts; their position on civil rights is that gay people need to go to Jesus; their position on terror suspects is to detain them and torture them, violating domestic and international law; their position on immigration is to round up millions and force them to go home.

My worry, however, is that there are enough Americans perfectly happy to live with this nihilism indefinitely, and to perpetuate the policies of spend-and-borrow and invade-and-occupy that any serious attempt to address our problems is impossible. And their response to that will be to blame all those problems on a Democratic president, if there is one; and if there's a Republican president, to simply deny that any of the problems exist at all."

Donate to Haiti relief fund by downloading this version on iTunes. Great song. Great performance. Great cause.
