Isn't this what we expected? These guys in the WhiteHouse now just tell us what ever they think we want to hear and the major new organizations don't say anything.

Many California jobs 'saved' by stimulus funds weren't in jeopardy
The Sacramento Bee
Multiple cases of inflated and underreported job tallies have surfaced since the federal government released detailed stimulus reports last week, said Craig Jennings, a senior policy analyst at OMB Watch, a Washington, D.C.-based nonprofit group that tracks federal spending.

"I don't think recipients know what they are supposed to put down," Jennings said, referring to guidelines for estimating the number of jobs retained.
 

One more reason why The Gambit sucks.

I replied thusly.


Hello .lo….lo ….lo Wow this is like an echo chamber in here. !

Your criticism of Mr. Jindal is petty and snarky. There is no doubt that you are nothing more than a wanna be political operative for the democrat party. After reading this I feel like I need a shower for it drips with nastiness and partisanship.

The governor of this state just like the governor of any state needs media watchdogs and frankly a worthy opposition. You and your publication are neither nor is that only slightly veiled partisan propaganda show on MSNBC you linked us too.

Funny how GE and NBC and MSNBC and countless minions are all putting out the same message and your just lapping it up daily like a little Pomeranian. I am not saying that you are conspiring with the cable networks because that would be silly and unnecessary. There is no need for a meeting because you just like MSNBC are not really journalists. You only do that part time. The rest of the time is spent on dreaming up fake news items like this one so that you can further the propaganda that supports your common world view. I am surprised that you didn’t link us to a national survey sponsored by the NYT that says 84% of women polled think that Bobby Jindal is just icky.

I am a Libertarian so I don’t really think the Republicans are the answer and I don’t know yet about Mr. Jindal’s leadership skills but one thing I do know is that the only reason you are constantly looking for any possible way to make him look bad on this blog and in your paper is that you really don’t have anything on him. You can’t get Larry Flint to pay to connect him with a Whore yet and he really hasn’t made any bad political decisions yet and has been doing his job.

Let’s hope for your sake that you get an actual story soon to rag on him about because these partisan attacks you have been Echoing or Channeling from MSNBC and the Huffington post are tiresome and lacking in any journalistic integrity. I am really sorry that the governor didn’t live up to your Hero’s Telegenic Telepromptered presence. That sucks for you. I know! He just doesn’t have the style and we all know that is so much more important that substance.

Mother Jones throws down with David Vitter

Here is my response.

Fist of all is this Journalism?

“Instead of coming up with serious measures to save the economy, the party intends to devote its time to an “we told you so” agenda that will include GOP-only hearings on the bill’s impact in the coming months to highlight the bill’s purportedly wasteful elements and shortcomings.”

Cause it sounds like an opinion. I am a Libertarian so I don't care if the Republicans get their feelings hurt but I saw the president say in his "so called" press conference where he picked the questions in advance that he heard the Republican plans and they were the same old Tax cuts that never work. "We have tried that" he said. So it is not that the Republicans don't have any plans it's that the liberals in the press don't like them. And they are providing political cover for the president and the democrats.

For years now I and other Americans have had to endure you calling our President Hitler and War Criminal. Even now you don't stop. Not that he was without fault but your completely ignored every other Human rights abuse that was going on because it didn't fit into your world view Mr. and Ms. Liberal.
Here is an example.

While you were calling Bush ....Hitler and War Criminal Putin was poisoning world leaders, Killing Journalist and dissidents and he made himself president for life. And you want to call Bush a dictator and tell me how he violated people's rights?  Now you want to sing God Bless American and tell me how patriotic you are for the first time in your life. Give me a break your nothing but a Zombie. Your controled by the media and guess who is controling them? 



alt MOSCOW (AP) - A newspaper editor says a journalist who was shot along with a human-rights lawyer on a Moscow street has died in the hospital.

Novaya Gazeta editor Sergei Sokolov says Anastasia Baburova died on the operating table hours after Monday's shooting.

A deputy editor at the newspaper, Andrei Lipsky, said earlier that Baburova was shot when she tried to intervene after a gunman fatally shot lawyer Stanislav Markelov. Baburova was a freelance journalist who had worked for the paper.

Markelov was fighting against the early release of a Russian colonel convicted of murdering a Chechen woman in 2000. He had also represented slain journalist Anna Politkovskaya as well as Chechens and others who reported abuse at the hands of the authorities.

THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.

MOSCOW (AP)—A human-rights lawyer who fought against the early release of a Russian colonel convicted of murdering a Chechen woman was shot dead on a Moscow street Monday, days after the officer left prison, law enforcement authorities said.

A journalist also was wounded in the attack, a newspaper editor said.

The broad-daylight slaying of Stanislav Markelov sparked anger among Chechens—already upset by the release of last week of Col. Yuri Budanov—and prompted an outpouring of grief and ire among Russia's beleaguered rights activists.

Congressional vote records online now.

This site lets you browse every vote in the U.S. Congress since 1991. It's on the menu now under research.

The Washington Post
has a useful Web tool that allows readers to track Congressional votes and sort them by a number of factors: party, state/territory, region, “boomer status” (okaaay), gender…

…and astrological sign. Seriously.

 WashPo breakdown of votes by the zodiac.

What does it all mean? Mysterious. And why would the Post bother to sort Congressional votes by horoscope? Even more mysterious. Guess I’m just a skeptical Capricorn

The Gambit reported this to me via Twitter and they don't seem to get it. The lid is starting to crack on the lid of control of the people via information. I can tell you the congress doesn't have a clue about how this is going to work against thier political intrest.
