Dodd, Obama Angry Over AIG Bonuses----Right!
How is it possible for Sen Dodd to show so much anger over the infamous AIG bonuses when he wrote the amendment that allowed the bonuses in the first place? and.....who received the most campaign contributions from AIG? You guessed it. Sen Dodd got $103,000 with the Pres in second place at $101,000.

ACORN as Census Takers?
Despite the huge criticism of Acorn's role in the recent election and the fact that the organization is under investigation in a dozen states for it's activities the administration (Department of Commerce) will assign Acorn huge contracts to conduct the mandatory census in 2010.



Lots of Flak From Veterans over Healthcare
There is a firestorm brewing over the Administration's proposal to have wounded veterans pay for their own healthcare through private insurers. The American Legion, after a White House meeting, is especially outraged about this and everyone is seeking clarification of the proposal.



"Enemy Combatants" Disappear From Government Lexicon
Homeland Security Director, Janet Napolitano, will no longer use the term Enemy Combatants to describe the terrorists who are trying to kill us. Even the word "terrorist" has no place in Washington polite language. Are they kidding? Get in the real world please!



We Surround Them Gathering Momentum
Glenn Beck's We Surround Them meetups have captured the spirit of real Americans. New Meetups have been scheduled and promise to be even more exciting and well attended than the first. Amazingly Beck has already overtaken Hannity in Fox/News ratings and is very close to O'Reilly's viewership.



The good news is that Americans are standing up for the things they believe in and they will not be quiet.
