Did I get my butt handed to me or what?<\/font><\/p>\n

Short Takes<\/strong>:<\/font><\/p>\n

From Washington Post<\/a>: <\/font>Rep. Heath Shuler (N.C.) formally launched his long-shot bid Monday to oust Speaker Nancy Pelosi (Calif.) as the leader of House Democrats, beginning to ask fellow lawmakers to support his more centrist campaign to be minority leader.<\/p>\n

If that GOP-flea-infested Bush Dog wins, color me Independent.<\/font><\/p>\n

From TPM<\/a>: <\/font> <\/font>In a sign that Democrats hope to do a better job claiming credit for their accomplishments, and emphasizing the differences between themselves and the GOP, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has merged the Senate Dems’ policy and communications shops, and tasked Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) with chairing the new office as a member of party leadership.<\/p>\n

Schumer has developed a reputation among his colleagues, and across Washington, as a shrewd political strategist and a master of message control.<\/p>\n

Message control is useless without the balls to back it up. \"Steaming<\/font><\/p>\n

From Portland Examiner<\/a>: <\/font>Saturday Neo-Nazis marched to the Sandra Day O\u2019Connor Federal Court Building in Phoenix, AZ to protest a federal judge\u2019s decision to block several provisions of the state\u2019s controversial immigration law, SB-1070. <\/p>\n

The march was disrupted by equal rights activists, and the event quickly devolved into a small riot. Police, in riot gear, used tear gas and pepper spray on the activists in an apparent attempt to protect the Neo-Nazis.<\/p>\n

What we have here is a case of Republican police protecting Republican racists.<\/font><\/p>\n
