Obama Walks Tightrope on Economy Hype; GOPers Frustrated by February Lull
Team Obama Gets a Little Cocky
"I deserve a second term, but we’re not done."
-- President Obama in a pre-Super Bowl interview with “Today” host Matt Lauer when asked about the president’s prediction before the 2009 Super Bowl that if he couldn’t affect an economic turnaround in three years that his presidency would be a “one-term proposition.”
Democratic optimism is soaring.
The unemployment rate is down, the president’s job approval rating has returned to its typical level in the high 40s and the Republican nominating process resembles nothing so much as “Cannonball Run”: a coast-to-coast contest punctuated by pratfalls.

On Friday [P]MSNBC's Martin Bashir claimed the "Fast and Furious' investigations in Congress have turned into a "Witch Hunt." Bashir had Rep Elijah Cummings (D-MD) on and allowed him to make several false claims about the investigation and the hearings from last week.
Since Bashir did not have a counter-point on his show, Breitbart.tv decided to interview journalist AWR Hawkins who has been at the forefront of Big Government's on-going coverage of the "Fast and Furious" scandal. Hawkins refutes every charge made by Bashir and Cummings and provides the damning facts in the case.

Is Paul double-dipping on reimbursements?
quote:
When members of Congress travel back and forth from Washington DC to their home districts, taxpayers reimburse the travel. When presidential candidates travel, the campaign reimburses their travel. What happens when a member of Congress is also a presidential candidate? For Ron Paul, it appears that he gets two reimbursements for the same travel, according to an investigation by Roll Call:
Rep. Ron Paul appears to have been paid twice for flights between Washington, D.C., and his Congressional district, receiving reimbursement from taxpayers and also from a network of political and nonprofit organizations he controlled, according to public records and documents obtained by Roll Call.
Roll Call identified eight flights for which the Texas Republican, a GOP presidential candidate and leading champion of smaller government, was reimbursed twice for the same trip. Roll Call also found dozens more instances of duplicate payments for travel from 1999 to 2009, totaling thousands of dollars’ worth of excess payments, but the evidence in those cases is not as complete.

Illegal immigrant convicted in Va. drunk driving crash that killed a nun sentenced to [only] 20 years
quote:
MANASSAS, Va. — An illegal immigrant from Bolivia who caused a drunken driving crash that killed a Benedictine nun and severely injured two others has been sentenced to 20 years in prison.
Carlos Martinelly Montano was sentenced Friday. The 24-year-old pleaded guilty to driving while intoxicated and driving without a license in the 2010 crash. He was convicted of murder at a trial in October, a conviction his attorneys say they plan to appeal.
The case drew national attention partly because of the victims — three elderly nuns — but mostly because of Martinelly’s immigration status.

Health Records Hacked
quote:Why Santorum Voters Wouldn’t Become Gingrich Voters
The [Redspin’s] annual survey, "Breach Report 2011, Protected Health Information,” found breaches in all 50 states, and examined a total of 385 incidents affecting over 19 million individuals since the HITECH Act's breach notification rule went into effect in August 2009.
This translates to a 97 percent increase in health data breaches from 2010 to 2011.

quote:
For 60 years the National Prayer Breakfast has been a nonpolitical event where speakers put aside their earthly biases and focus on a Higher Authority. Last Thursday, President Obama departed from that tradition to claim the endorsement of Jesus for raising taxes. It beat the endorsement of Mitt Romney by Donald Trump.
In his remarks, the president quoted Luke 12:48: "From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked." The president sees this verse as a command for him to raise taxes on the successful so the money can be "spread around" to the less successful. If the president's interpretation of this verse sounds a little like Karl Marx, it should. Marx said, "From each according to his ability, to each according to his need."
The president took a quote that was meant to mean something else and twisted it to serve his political ends. He took a verse out of context, created a pretext and then preached on politics. A conservative spinner might also wrongly use Matthew 13:12 to justify cutting taxes. That verse says: "Whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance."
