Will we simply remember Sarah Palin as the John the Baptist to Michele Bachmann’s Jesus? Is she the promised one? Bachmann will apparently form a presidential exploratory committee in early summer, if not earlier.
Jon Stewart jumps into the CNN-Fox feud over their Libya coverage: “Only [Fox] can turn, ‘our guy missed the shuttle bus’ into, ‘Fox News alone refuses to play patsy to America’s enemies.'” Watch.
I saw that InformationWeek had picked up our story about Mitch Daniels’ grudge match with IBM.
And their headline reads: “IBM Seeks to Depose Indiana Governor.”
And on a quick look I was like, “Wow, they’re going for full regime change? That is bold. They’ve got like their own Democracy Agenda for the Middle West.”
Then I remembered the dispute is about Daniels refusing to be deposed in the lawsuit after the cancelled lawsuit. It was a fun thought while it lasted though.
Speaker Boehner demands answers from President Obama on the hows and whys of our military deployment in Libya.
For weeks Newt Gingrich has been insisting on a Libya No-Fly-Zone. This morning he said it was a bad idea and that he wouldn’t have done it.
Can it really be such a simple contradiction? Actually, pretty much, yeah.
BREAKING: Gingrich has just taken to Facebook to try to rationalize his completely contradictory position. However, what he says is so convoluted and hard to follow that we now have four credentialed TPM news specialists reviewing the post to determine which way he’s now flipping. We’ll have more shortly when our team determines what he’s saying.
The Tea Partying Gov of Maine says he’s received complaints that the state’s Department of Labor headquarters doesn’t have a pro-business enough feel. So he’s ordered the department to remove a rather dated looking mural depicting the history of the labor movement in the US and immediately change the names of all the buildings conference rooms to more business friendly or landscape oriented names.
Prankster James O’Keefe is asking readers for $50,000 to cover over-extended credit card bills. Money over 50k will go to more video pranks.
How can you hope to be an effective president without a one sentence doctrine?
I’m not sure I’ve ever seen anything like this. IBM has opened up a scathing attack on Indiana Governor and probable presidential candidate Mitch Daniels (R). It’s over two high stakes lawsuits involving a ton of money. Daniels, as governor, cancelled the contracts and the computer giant is hitting Daniels over his attempt to avoid being deposed in the case.
