In honour of Cheney going where few men have gone before with his 6 deferments and 5 heart attacks, I would like to present some choice comments floating around the Intertubez.

As much as I hate linking to huffingtonpost

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/...

http://theplumline.whorunsgov.com/...

In another surprising step forward for the public option, Senator Harry Reid’s office says that if a final decision is made to pass health reform via reconciliation, the Majority Leader would support holding a reconciliation vote on the public option.

One less thing to whine about which will upset a lot of people around Dkos. DADT is getting attention, Afghanistan tide appears to be turning, and now this. What is a pathetic Dkos whiner to do.

He can't do anything right. Only passed more progressive bills in 1 year than the previous 10. He should have passed them all by now! Pfffft. How pathetic.

Now this snow storm! Another failure to lead on Climate change obviously. How can we expect him to change Washington if he can't even control the climate!

Thought maybe people want to read something besides politics for a change. This is REALLY sounding like a breakthrough. They have been building up to this point for about 13 years now.

Given todays SCOTUS decision as a wonderful grand finally to a wonderful week. I think some George Orwell quotes are in order.

Note: As I type this with Kieth Olbermann on the TV I would like to re-iterate what he and one of his cohorts just said.

Commentary: "As much as you tend to hype up and dramatize things Keith, I think you are underreacting."

Keith: "I am surprised that people are not marching in the streets in protest behind me over this decision"
.

Keith: "The end of democracy as we know it"

...and it couldn't have come at a worse time.....for the media.

The story I can almost guarantee you nobody is going to report today is a new AP poll showing Obama's numbers holding strong at 56%. Don't pay attention to the WaPo headline in this link as I'm sure everyone is familiar with how WaPo rolls. Desperately looking for the negative spin yada yada business as usual.

Short and sweet. Remember at the time of the Senate vote for HCR all the kookaid drinkers were saying, "see, we are obviously being screwed because the Healthcare stocks are up". That was a regularly occuring theme for the Wall Street stocks run up as well

Doubt you will read much about this in the media as it goes against the talking points they want to tell. Just like that optimistic poll of Afghans the media largely ignored.

This is a perfect example of how the media distorts reality, whether it is intentional or not. In this case it is Afghanistan.

So while everyone is running around seeing terrorist boogeymen around every corner. While the media happily re-iterate the threat with shiny happy faces. While Repukes are falling all over themselves to point shoot aim at ANYONE and everyone but themselves and just making up facts and history as they go along. While all of this noise, recently turned up because some depressed priviledged loner decides to burn his wanker on a plane, starts to rear it's fearmongering head once again. A funny thing happened.

Al-Qaeda is actually losing it's influence and it's abilities. Now many of you are probably thinking, "surely you jest". Bear with me as I go through some facts from a refreshingly journalistic Time article.
