So yeah, rewriting the Constitution will be key. That and legalizing ferrets.
"He is a face of the past," said one Republican consultant who spoke on the condition he not be named. "A face of conflict and too polarizing. So, not a good face of the party."
JPMorgan Chairman and CEO Jamie Dimon, in a letter to shareholders, touched on a theme that critics of the Iraq war were highlighting more than a year ago: That spending on the war was damaging to the economy. Dimon cited "an expensive war in Iraq" as one of the possible triggers of the economic collapse. Spending on the war ballooned the deficit and crowded out investment in domestic priorities.

MaryJo Miller was dumbstruck when she opened her letter, which targeted her daughter, Marissa. Mr. Skumanick later told her he had a photo of Marissa that showed her from the waist up wearing a bra. Marissa and her mother say the photo was snapped at a slumber party more than two years ago when Marissa was 12. Neither Marissa nor her mother knows how it got circulated but they don't see the photo as explicit. "It was like an old grandma bra. Nothing skimpy," says Marissa. Marissa and her parents joined a group of about 50 others at the courthouse. Before showing the photos, Mr. Skumanick explained his offer to the crowd, answering one father's question affirmatively, that -- yes -- a girl in a bathing suit could be subjected to criminal charges because she was posed "provocatively."

A federal judge has already issued an injunction prohibiting the pervert Skumanick from filing charges against the girls.
In the end, parents enrolled 14 teens in the course. But the parents of three other girls, including Marissa Miller, recruited the ACLU's help to sue Mr. Skumanick. At a hearing March 26, a federal judge indicated he thought the girls may be successful in their suit and temporarily blocked Mr. Skumanick from filing charges, pending a June hearing.
Remember -- this sleazebag pervert DA wants to charge girls for taking pictures in clothes no more provocative than a bikini.
Jim Manley, a spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid , D-Nev., said Reid hopes to hold a confirmation vote on Sebelius “as soon as possible.” The timing, he said, is largely dependent on how vigorously Republicans work to delay her confirmation. Anti-abortion groups have urged Republicans to oppose her nomination.
Who was the biggest donor to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee in March, transferring $250,000 to the House Democrats' campaign arm from a candidate committee? Speaker Nancy Pelosi? Nope. Majority Leader Steny H. Hoyer? Another nice try, but wrong again. The answer is actually someone who doesn't even serve in Congress: El Tinklenberg, a Minnesota Democrat who fell short in his bid last year to represent the 6th District north and east of the Twin Cities. His campaign committee, Tinklenberg for Congress, gave the quarter-million to the DCCC in two $125,000 installments, according to a campaign finance report the DCCC filed Monday.

This suggests that Tinklenberg won't go for a rematch against Bachmann. But someone will, and that should prove to be a fun race next year. Can't wait. But Dems? Please no Blue Dog wannabe.
