Healther Skelter-Jon Stewart vs. The Town Hall Crazies
There’s a lot of crazy stuff going on in the world, maybe it’s the heat, maybe it’s because the GOP has run amok but whatever is happening the world is topsy turvey. Do yourself a favor and click on the link and enjoy Jon Stewart’s take on the scare tactics being used by those opposed to health care reform. Pay attention to Rep. Bob Inglis vs. some right wing nuts at a recent town hall meeting and note the link between Fox News/Glen Beck and Obama haters…Enjoy!

Military Suicides Soar/NC Republican Asks For An End to War
More distrubing news about the rate of suicides in all branches of the military. When Republican’s like Walter Jones begin to demand an end to war and beg forgiveness for voting for sending troops to war, you know the tide has turned.

The Republican Party's "Southern" Problem
The Republican Party has a Southern problem:It’s been largely pushed out of other regions, and has become dominated by Southerners who are pushing the party even further to the right in what’s become a downward spiral. Normally, Republicans can’t say this, but one of the party’s senators is taking advantage of the relative freedom offered him by his impending retirement to speak out.
In an interview with The Columbus Dispatch, Sen. George Voinovich, R-Ohio, identified what he believes to be the Republican Party’s biggest problem at present:
We got too many Jim DeMints (R-S.C.) and Tom Coburns (R-Ok.). It’s the southerners. They get on TV and go ‘errrr, errrrr.’ People hear them and say, “These people, they’re southerners. The party’s being taken over by southerners. What they hell they got to do with Ohio?”
Voinovich is now the second major Republican politician in less than a year to recognize and criticize the party’s increasing regional and demographic isolation — the other does want a political future. Last November, Minnesota’s Republican governor, Tim Pawlenty, acknowledged that the GOP can no longer compete in many areas of the U.S.
