FOX News reporter asks Obama if he wants gas prices to go higher

 Interestingly, President Obama doesn't answer the question. Instead, he mocks the reporter.

Priceless: Sarah Palin asks Obama to return $1 million donation from Bill Maher

If Obama was truly outraged by men calling women names unjustifiably, he would return Maher's $1 million donation. Don't hold your breath.

Mitt Romney says he won't "say outrageous things about the president"

This is the tactic John McCain took in 2008. We all know how that worked out. The GOP candidate needs to be willing to vet Obama. The mainstream media will never do the job. We can't afford a timid candidate.

RCP:

Gov. ROMNEY: Well, my message is I'm not going to say outrageous things about the president or about my opponents. It gets headlines and a lot of excitement, and it gets you, by the way, a number of days in the polls to get a nice little bump. But I'm going to talk about the real issues Americans face and talk with respect about people who have differing views. I'm not going to attack them personally.

Big Green Donors Betting Romney Will Flip-Flop on Global Warming If Elected

I wouldn't be surprised it they are correct.

Via Politico:

Will Mitt Romney flip-flop on climate change if he’s elected president?

Some big donors are betting on it.

Romney and his super PAC have taken millions from funders with strong green streaks — despite the fact that the former Massachusetts governor has run to the right in the primary, proclaiming doubts about global-warming science and trashing President Barack Obama’s greenhouse gas emissions policies.

Julian Robertson, founder of the Tiger Management hedge fund, helped put cap-and-trade legislation on the map with $60 million in contributions over the past decade to the Environmental Defense Fund.

Now, Robertson has given $1.25 million to Romney’s Restore our Future super PAC, plus the maximum $2,500 to the Romney campaign.

Other green-minded financial backers may not be giving as much as Robertson, but they still share the view that climate-change science and a solid environmental agenda wouldn’t be a lost cause if Romney won the White House.

Last year Romney said:

“I don’t speak for the scientific community, of course, but I believe the world is getting warmer, and I believe that humans have contributed to that,” Romney said. “I can’t prove that, but I believe based on what I read that the world is getting warmer.”

“No. 2, I believe that humans contribute to that,” he continued. “I don’t know how much our contribution is to that, because I know there’s been periods of greater heat and warmth than in the past, but I believe we contribute to that. And so I think it’s important for us to reduce our emissions of pollutants, of greenhouse gases, that may well be significant contributors to the climate change and global warming that you’re seeing.”

Rush called Sandra Fluke the wrong name. He should have called her a 'drama queen'

Rush Limbaugh apologized for calling law student Sandra Fluke a sl*t. His comments on her were over the top. However, Sandra Fluke's House Democratic Steering and Policy Committee testimony last month was full of hyperbole, if not downright disingenuous. It was designed to fan the flames of the birth control insurance mandate versus religious freedom debate. During the testimony, Fluke claimed it can cost a law student $3,000 over three years for birth control. A little research found she could have went to a Target store only 3 miles from the law school and got birth control pills for only $9 a month. This plan is available to people who do not have insurance plans covering contraceptives. Additionally, she enrolled in a Catholic University. Surely a law student as smart as her knew going in the insurance wasn't going to pay for birth control.

(CNSNews.com) – Although Georgetown Law student Sandra Fluke testified to the House Democratic Steering and Policy Committee last month that contraception can cost a law student $3,000 over three years and that some of her fellow students could not afford it, a Target store only 3 miles from the law school currently sells a month’s supply of birth control pills for only $9 to people who do not have insurance plans covering contraceptives.

That would make the total cost for birth control pills for a student who decided to use them for all three years of law school just $324.

Fluke was the sole witness who appeared on Feb. 23 before an all-Democratic panel chaired by House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).

Libtalker mocks tornado victims: “Their God Keeps Smashing Them Into Little Grease Spots”

Shameful..



I wonder if his sponsors will drop him?

“Their God … keeps smashing them into little grease spots on the pavement in  Alabama, and Mississippi, and Arkansas, and Georgia, and Oklahoma. You know, the Bible belt, where they ain’t gonna let no goddamned science get in the way, it says in the Bible, blah blah blah blah. So, according to their way of thinking, God with his omnipotent thumb reaches down here and so far tonight has smashed about twenty people into a grease spot on highway 12, or whatever the hell highway they live next to.”
