(Why can't any other MSM outlet be 1/2 as truthful?)<br /><br />Tactical Retreat, Not Waterloo, On ObamaCare IBD Editorials <br /><br />Yesterday, Barack Obama was God. Today, he's fallen from grace, the magic gone, his health care reform dead. <br /><br />If you believed the first idiocy — and half the mainstream media did — you'll believe the second. Don't believe either. <br /><br />Conventional wisdom always makes straight-line projections. They are always wrong. <br /><br />Yes, Obama's aura has diminished, in part because of overweening overexposure. But by year's end he will emerge with something he can call health care reform. <br /><br />The Democrats in Congress will pass it because they must. Otherwise, they'll have slain their own savior in his first year in office. <br /><br />But that bill will look nothing like the massive reform Obama originally intended. The beginning of the retreat was signaled by Obama's curious reference — made five times — to "health-insurance reform" in his July 22 news conference. <br /><br />Reforming the health care system is dead. Cause of death? Blunt trauma administered not by Republicans, not even by Blue Dog Democrats, but by the green eyeshades at the Congressional Budget Office.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-92007113455977232812009-07-30T17:18:51.176-07:002009-07-30T17:18:51.176-07:00Black cop at Gates home regrets 'Uncle Tom'...Black cop at Gates home regrets 'Uncle Tom' label (trashes Prof Gates on Loud Dobbs!)<br />yahoo <br /><br />A black sergeant who was at the home of Harvard scholar Henry Louis Gates Jr. when he was arrested says he's been maligned as an "Uncle Tom" for supporting the actions of the white arresting officer. <br /><br />Cambridge Sgt. Leon Lashley gave a letter to Sgt. James Crowley to give to President Barack Obama during their so-called beer summit with Gates on Thursday night at the White House. In the letter, which was also sent to CNN, Lashley says Gates "may have caused grave and potentially irreparable harm to the struggle for racial harmony." <br /><br />Lashley says he has become known as a traitor to his heritage by some because he "spoke the truth" about the arrest. Gates was charged with disorderly conduct by police investigating a burglary. The charge was later dropped.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-65182092779541212212009-07-30T17:06:45.653-07:002009-07-30T17:06:45.653-07:00Ever notice...

But the newspaper's editors apparently didn't want the results of the New York Times/CBS poll to draw too much attention. <br /><br />A Page One headline refers to "growing unease" about healthcare, but the story does not provide the actual figures until much later. <br /><br />In fact, readers won't find the poll results until the bottom third of Page A-17. <br /><br />And before readers reach the actual poll numbers, the story offers them an explanation for why the public healthcare revolt is growing: Opponents of the president's reforms, readers are told, have spent $9 million on television ads to sway public opinion. (No mention is made of advertising that favors a government healthcare plan.) <br /><br />When readers finally locate the poll results, the numbers speak for themselves — and it's not good news for the president.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-62433229957872809522009-07-30T13:33:05.892-07:002009-07-30T13:33:05.892-07:00'Stimulus' grants going to porn producers?...'Stimulus' grants going to porn producers?
