Liberalism: Why think when you can “feel”?

Obama offered jobs to potential Senate challengers…twice

Most of you know that B.O.’s Chicagoland cronies offered Sestak a job in order to keep him from challenging Arlen Specter in the PA Dem primary.  If true, that’s a crime.

Well, lightning sometimes strikes twice: he did the same thing in Colorado.  From the AP:

The Obama administration dangled the possibility of a government job for former Colorado House Speaker Andrew Romanoff last year in hopes he would forgo a challenge to Democratic Sen. Michael Bennet, officials said Wednesday, just days after the White House admitted orchestrating a job offer in the Pennsylvania Senate race.

These officials declined to specify the job that was floated or the name of the administration official who approached Romanoff, and said no formal offer was ever made. They spoke on condition of anonymity, saying they were not cleared to discuss private conversations.

“Mr. Romanoff was recommended to the White House from Democrats in Colorado for a position in the administration,” White House deputy press secretary Bill Burton said. “There were some initial conversations with him but no job was ever offered.”

I’m sure it’s just a really big coinkidink that not one, but two, Senate primary challengers were offered positions within the administration.

Night and Day, “Obama rips federal response to disaster” edition

Breitbart’s got the video, a montage of President Present (when he was merely Senator Present) blasting the federal government’s response to Hurricane Katrina.  Takeaway line:  “We’re going to do some hard thinking about how we could have failed our fellow citizens so badly.”

And now, the with Gulf oil spill?  B.O. is basically saying “Hey, nothing we can do.  It’s BP’s fault.  I’m going on vacation.”

Quote of the day, “Let the criminals handle the problem” edition

Rudy Giuliani on B.O. letting BP handle the oil spill relief effort:

The reality is the Administration has made every mistake it could possibly make right down to the criminal investigation of BP… And, if they’re being criminally investigated then why are we allowing them to do it? If we got a bunch of criminals doing it then why are we allowing them to do it?

Good question.

Gov. Christie rips teachers union in NJ

My man-crush is almost as big as the rotund man himself.  I tried embedding the video here, but WordPress isn’t cooperating.  So instead, do yourself a favor and check out the RCP link. You won’t be sorry!
