Supreme court building — Is this building missing?

Can someone marching today check to see if building shown above is still there? The new WhiteHouse.gov home page has a section entitled “Our Government” that includes the following links:

If you select any of the links, you go to the “Our Government” page, and again, there is no mention of the Judiciary. I guess the third branch of “Our Government” is not that important anymore.

I could not even finish my bowl of raisin bran this morning because of an article in the Atlanta Journal Constitution that attempts to explain the basics of the fiscal cliff. The article includes an error that I know will feed the feeble minds of the anti-tax crowds. For a quick diary about the matter, please jump.

I got an invitation for an fundraising event for RRISA -- Refugee Resettlement and Immigration Services of Atlanta -- and it includes a performance by folk singer John McCutcheon. I was not familiar with him, so I went to his website and listened to his featured song "Too Big To Fail." It is worth a listen....

As a supplement to Stand Strong's diary about people denying Obama credit for the kill, let's not forget this key fact. . . it was Bush who in July 2006, disbanded the CIA group that had the mission of hunting down bin Laden:

The Central Intelligence Agency has closed a unit that for a decade had the mission of hunting Osama bin Laden and his top lieutenants, intelligence officials confirmed Monday.

Just a short post to point out how everything is related.

If the country had had a better healthcare system in 1946, Robert McNamara's career might have taken a different course, which might have kept him from becoming such a prominent industrial figure and the Secretary of Defense. You see, he left academia to make more money so that he could pay for healthcare.

Former Iowa Rep. Jim Leach, a leading Republican moderate who represented eastern Iowa for 30 years, spoke at the convention last night and gave the most definitive, historical explanation to date of why all Americans -- Republicans and Democrats -- should vote for Obama this fall.

His speech could persuade moderate fence-sitters if they are inclined to be persuaded. Jump with me.
