TPM MUCKRAKER AND THINK PROGRESS SPREAD THE CRAPOLA
After reading the "secret" memo, I must say that it really isn't that "secret" or shocking. Most Leftists who did any protesting in college should find the techniques mentioned in the memo familiar ... it even mentions "Use the Alinsky playbook of which the Left is so fond: freeze it, attack it, personalize it, and polarize it." Better yet, it outlines how to box in a cagey politicians who are used to answering questions without actually answering them.
Mahatma Gandhi would be proud to espouse and use the techniques described. Frankly, what is missing is any mention of violence or rushing the stage, a staple of Leftist attempts to suppress free speech on college campuses.
Is being effective at a gathering for public discourse a crime or unethical ? ... what's the big deal ?
Where's the smoking gun that shows the $40 million dollars being pumped in like ObamaCare's proponents are doing ? .. all those "paid" volunteers.
Once again Think Progress shows that they do neither.

HELP! IS THERE A WHITE DOCTOR IN THE HOUSE?
I am a cracker, but my doctor is a black woman.

Glad to see that at least I am post-racial.
A FEW RAMBLING THOUGHTS ON THE GATES AFFAIR
Willie Brown -
I know Skip Gates well. He's a small person physically, less than 150 pounds wet, but he is very big when it comes to militancy.For many years, Gates has been one of the strongest academic voices on the black experience in this country. But, like many academics, Skip may not have had a lot of personal experience when it comes to dealing with cops.
Now he can write about the subject forever, having met up with them full force in his own living room.
I have no doubt that he used his intellect to humiliate the hell out of that cop.
The only thing that surprised me about the incident was that he didn't have a video camera going.

PROSECUTING TORTURE AS A DISTRACTION FROM THE ECONOMY
.. and the other forms of torture ...
And that’s why I’m so sceptical of these models, which have nothing to do with science or empiricism but are about torturing the data till it finally confesses.
... and it makes you question ...

Take a deep breathe .. now hold it.

Steve Schmidt seems destined to take over for Bob Schram as the guy who can't get anything right.
But frankly, after this food fight, it's time to find a place on the ballot for "none of the above".

HEALTH CARE DEBATE IN CONGRESS: WHERE IS OBAMA?
5.. Health care. Several versions still moving through Congress.
You really have to wonder which one he will be pitching on his ABC infomercial.
But beware .. White House officials suggest the president's rhetoric shouldn't be taken literally.

'IT IS NOT OVER. IT HAS JUST BEGUN'
The patriotic thing to do to complement the strategy of POTUS Obama is to criticise him vigorously. If, we all sit here and say that Obama shouldn’t meddle, anything little that even vaguely approaches meddling will be denounced by the Mullahs as meddling, so we have to back up Obama stand of “hands off” by making it look credible that he is vigorously “doing nothing” by calling him an idiot for not doing more .. often.
It also gives us cred if the protesters should prevail.“Obama is an idiot” … and it’s the patriotic thing to do.

Tehran, Jun. 25 2005 – “Ahmadinejad? Who’s he?” This was the typical reaction of most Iranians a day after the first round of presidential elections in Iran, when they heard that the two candidates facing each other in the run-off were veteran politician Ayatollah Ali-Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani and the little-known, ultra-conservative mayor of Tehran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Last week’s surprise was all forgotten by the much bigger shock on Friday, when Ahmadinejad defeated the former President and iconic figure in the ruling theocracy in a landslide victory that consolidated power in the hands of the ruling Islamic clerics.
