White House: "This Scandal could be enormous," said Dick Morris, a former White House adviser to President Bill Clinton, on the Fox News Sean Hannity show last night. "It’s Valerie Plame only 10 times bigger, because it’s illegal and Joe Sestak is either lying or the White House committed a crime. "Obviously, the offer of a significant job in the White House could not be made unless it was by Rahm Emanuel or cleared with Rahm Emanuel," he said.

For Sale: Brookly Bridge - Good Condition
…and as soon as I sell you the Brooklyn Bridge I‘m going to convince you that the Whitehouse did nothing wrong in their dealings with congressman Joe Sestak. The Obama folks put out a story today that stinks worse than unwelcome house guests. The way the Whitehouse spins this yarn is to say that Bill Clinton was to speak to Joe at the request of Rahm Emmanuel about a job that paid nothing. To get this great job for nothing all he had to do was “nothing”. Actually he had...

O’Reilly Tells Beck If He Gets Over 100,000 At 8/28 Rally He ‘Needs To Anchor 8pm Show’
This could maybe prove to be interesting or at least gin up further interest in Glenn Beck’s 8/28 rally from a different angle. Bill O’Reilly has apparently made a wager with Beck that if he gets more than 100,000 attendants at his 8/28 Restoring Honor rally he will give him his 8pm time slot on Fox News.
The wager apparently was a result of O’Reilly telling Beck he figured he would get 15-20,000 people at the rally, Beck revealed he’s hoping for over 100,000 to...

Election '12: Take back the victory mosque, formerly known as the White House
Bill Kelly’s Truth Squad is all about truth, justice, and all things America. Whether through humor or parody, or in just the facts, we are taking the side of those who have been continually shut out by the Mainstream Media. The Media seek to justify this position of dishonesty by perpetuating a storyline of Bigotry and prejudice; that those that oppose their thinking are backwards, illiterate, stupid, hateful, and dangerous.
This has been the case from the beginning of the Obama...
White House press pool
Lousy is a Heinous Democratic Party who uses the Race Card against people with opposing Views.
Lousy is a Corrupt Government who is unfeeling towards the people still suffering from 9/11 and allows a Victory Mosque built for 19 hijackers. What a Trophy they will have to show off to other countries.

White House Adviser Summers Hopes History Forgets This Great Recession
With the U.S. economy apparently headed for another rough patch, the Obama Administration faces a growing chorus of complaint and opposition. Just this past week, House Minority Leader John Boehner called for Larry Summers and Timothy Geithner , Obama's top economics advisors, to resign. While Geithner is fairly well-known to the General public, Summers is not. Who is this insider who helps President Obama call the macroeconomic shots?
