The only thinks I have on tap today are blogging, recovering emotionally, and doing some paperwork. I’m current on replies. Tomorrow appears routine.

Todays took me 4:33 (average 5:05). To do it, click here. How did you do?
Short Takes:
From MoveOn: Step Aside J.K. Rowling, We Just Found The Next Great Fiction Writer
Dang! Who would have thought fiction could be written on an Etch-a-Sketch!
From ABC: The Republican advocacy group Crossroads GPS unveiled a $7 million-television ad buy Tuesday to air a commercial criticizing President Obama for increasing the national debt during his presidency.
What a lie!! See the above chart!
From MSNBC: Rachel Maddow reported other news of the day

Obama has had more success against AQ in four years than Bush did in eight. The Republican war on women is confirmed, as is the Republican War on Voting Rights. We should not be surprised that the head of the Party has no trouble dining, while basking in Hitler’s glow.

“Obama has had more success against AQ in four years than Bush did in eight.”
Democrats are fiscal conservatives and efective…
…and Republicans lie.
MoveOn — Rmoney obviously failed his wiizardry course big time!
Crossroads GPS — “…air a commercial criticizing President Obama for increasing the national debt during his presidency.” The Republican/Teabaggers and their followers certainly have no grasp of numbers and no grasp on reality. Baby Bush and his illegal wars have done more to increase the national debt than any other president in decades — Reagan (R) 6.8%; Daddy Bush (R) 5.4%; Clinton (D) 3.55%; Baby Bush (R) 7.7%; Obama (D) 1.4%. What I see is 2 Democrat presidents who together have contributed less to the national debt than the lowest spending Republican/Teabagger. These morons could have spent that money on a more productive venture like school lunches!
Rachel Maddow — A cornucopia of news . . .
Orly Tait, the original birther, a possible Republican/Teabagger candidate for senator from California? I think California has experienced one too many earthquakes if they elect this idiot to anything!
Rmoney’s fund raising dinner at a mansion displaying paintings by Hitler and a signed copy of Mein Kampf? It is bad enough that this stuff is seeing the light of day, but to be on display while dinning and fund raising? I wonder if Harland Crow actually read Mein Kampf before buying it? I read it about 42 years ago and in my opinion it certainly demonstrates how twisted Hitler was and anyone who ascribes to his BS is. This should be a wake-up call to the American people, but I doubt it will be.
Paycheque Fairness Act — filibustered into failure by partisan politics — any doubt there is a Republican/Teabagger war on women? Even the female senators were deluded into voting against it! Partisan politic crap!
Cartoon — The beginning of the end of a Nazi Europe! Thousands of deaths and about a year later, the German surrender followed 3 months later by the Japanese surrender. Sad having a Republican/Teabagger fundraising dinner in a mansion that seems to glorify Hitler near the date of the battle that was the beginning of the end of WWII and a slaughter of so many Allied soldiers.
Orly Taitz got only 3.1% of the vote. We may be crazy, but we are not stupid.
But he sure can etch his sketch!
She was in 7th place.
Had Obama done this the media would be screaming bloody murder.
Bingo!
And Republicans now embrace the things so many fought and died to eliminate.
3:34 Not a bad time!

I bow to your superiority.
I’m second.
The Republicans are better at getting their news out than the Democrats, it is that simple. Why else would most of the American public believe that Pres. Obama has spent more than Bush 2? The Dems have folded too many times, they need to stand up and be counted.
That’s partially because the MSM media is highly right-slanted.
President Obama’s overall successes have been so overwhelming to the RepublicanTs that they have to lie.
There is a special term for Republican candidates who tell the truth: unemployed.
