god bless Rick Sanchez because he's one of the only ones in corporate media who actually get some real journalism into the MSM, and that's saying a whole lot:

contrary to the diary currently on the reclist saying that Harry Reid came out for the public option, Talking Points Memo just reported in their giant banner headline story that Harry Reid is "throwing in the towel on the Public Option".

Did Harry Reid just throw in the towel on public option? He seemed to in a telephone town hall with constituents that we were listening in on.

metaphorically of course, but this is even harsher than the Glenn Greenwald v. Chuck Todd podcast from a while ago.

But someone really had to say it to Mr. MSM:

If you don't know already, Blue America PAC is trying to raise $450,000 as a "credible threat" on behalf of the Public Option. Donate now, and get others to as well: http://www.actblue.com/...

Just yesterday, we were at around. $200,000.

Less than a day later? We are at $309,713 with over 5000 donors. We're almost there!

Let me tell you what the "credible threat" means:

yes, i know its only 1% of their members, but to a group like AARP which has been on and off the fence over and over about real healthcare reform in the last few decades, its important to them. They only recently, this week, got on the reform bandwagon you know...

So those of you who dont know what im talking about follow me over the fold:

So what does Obama get for dealmaking with Billy Tauzin and PhRMA, supposed "ally"? $150 million in pro-reform ads which is chump change from PhRMA's perspective. But now reports coming out that PhRMA's support is only skin deep, and that they actually have a NEGATIVE ANTI-HEALTH REFORM AD set to run, demolishing Obama's and Democrats' efforts to pass reform. It's 1994 all over again..., and PhRMA and AHIP are taking a NO PRISONERS approach

They could also give cover to some big business players, who’ve shied away from challenging the White House, to turn their guns on the reform agenda and kill it — just like they did more than a decade ago.

"Don't Whine. Organize."

the [Brooks Brothers] riot was of a piece with a broader strategy--a broader strategy that worked. Al Gore and his supporters tended to take the high road; when they saw the other side playing dirty, they complained. History has arguably vindicated their position. But it doesn't change the fact that George W. Bush ended up in the White House.

Follow me over the fold: I have a link to a GIGANTIC LIST of Town Halls for the month of August Where did i get this information? Conservative sites like the ironically named "Conservatives for Patients Rights"

Arizona State University (ASU) saw fit to give an honorary degree to a real estate investment banker chair (founded and chaired, but not even a CEO!) yet refuses to give President Obama an honorary degree.

Sam Stein reports:

ASU's decision, announced on Thursday, has already floored members of the academic, political and media communities. At once bizarre and insulting, critics are curious as to what, exactly, a sufficient body of work resembles under the university's standards. After all, in addition to being the first African-American elected to the office of the president in our nation's history, Obama has served in the United States Senate and authored two best selling books.

Not to mention he was an Illinois State Senator for 8 years with a lot of breakthrough legislation, taught constitutional law at University of Chicago for 12 years, and was a civil rights lawyer, and community organizer.

Bill O’Reilly Scheduled To Appear On The View And Letterman This Week

Via ThinkProgress:

On Monday (tomorrow), he is scheduled to appear on ABC’s The View. We can’t imagine that O’Reilly’s insensitive comments about the rape and murder of 18-year old Jennifer Moore — and his subsequent stalking of Amanda Terkel — would go over well with The View’s audience.

Then on Tuesday, O’Reilly is scheduled to appear as a guest on David Letterman’s show.:

RNC Chairman Michael Steele has emailed out a serious survey (as part of his master plan to the presidency) to all Republicans on how to rejuvenate the Republican Party.

Questions range from what you think is wrong with the Republican Party, and another question asks, yes-or-no, if Republican party members "want the government to pass more socialism".
