There is currently a bill to Audit the Federal Reserve before the House and Senate that has bipartisan support and makes sense for all the People of this country yet Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity (among others) never promote it on their shows. Why is that? The bill I’m speaking of is HR 1207 (House version) the “Federal Reserve Transparency Act of 2009,” aka “Audit the Fed.” and S 604 (Senate version), “Federal Reserve Sunshine Act of 2009.” For those not familiar with it, watch this

What is the number one watched program on cable news? If you guessed The O’Reily Factor, as I’m sure most of you did, you’d be correct . Bill is averaging these days close to three million viewers on any given weekday. In case you were curious, that’s about twice as many people as The Daily Show, while the major networks evening news shows can expect somewhere between 4.5 million and 8 million. OK, so here’s a tougher one: Who is #2? I’ll give you a hint: he’s also on Fox News.

According to this Washington Post article , Obama is returning to bashing Bush and Cheney in the effort to stop his plummeting poll numbers. Facing the first real rough patch of his presidency, President Obama and his supporters are once again resorting to a tried-and-true tactic: attacking George W. Bush and Dick Cheney. In his White House press conference last week, Mr. Obama referred to the Bush era at least nine times, three times lamenting that he “inherited” a $1.3 trillion debt that has set back his administration’s efforts to fix the economy.

I and many others have said Obama’s “public option” government run health care plan is nothing but a Trojan horse for Canadian style single payer health care. I’ve been called a conspiracy theorist, a nut, a fascist, a liar, and many other things even though I’ve provided stone cold proof . However, some Kool-Aid drinking drones need further proof, so I’ll just let Barney Frank take it from here… (hat tip Mark Levin ) Related Posts Audio: Glenn Beck Goes Ballistic On Caller Obama’s Own Doctor Thinks ObamaCare Reeks Video: U.S.

Blankley:House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, whatever her other capacities, demonstrated last week that she is a master at the poetic art of haiku — the Japanese poem form that encapsulates in three or fewer lines of 17 or fewer syllables a larger thought or image.Regarding the Democratic health care bill, she crafted the following haiku to assure the Blue Dog Democrats that they can tell their voters:Related Posts:Pelosi: There will be public option in House health care billRush Limbaugh: Pelosi Should “Break The Glass Ceiling” And ResignObamacare Follies: A Perilous Rush — Michael D.

19 people were arrested in Connecticut for allegedly running a finch and canary fighting ring. Police were tipped off when they received an anonymous tweet. A new study shows that when people text while driving their collision risk is 23 times greater than when not texting. That’s nothing compared to the 100 times greater risk seen in the 60’s when people were typing while driving. A 67-year-old woman in Australia spent a week wedged between her toilet and the bathroom door.

Colin Powell tells Larry King: “The problem I’m having with the [Republican] Party right now is that when [Rush Limbaugh] says something that I consider to be completely outrageous and I respond to it, I would like to see other members of the party do likewise, but they don’t.” That and the day’s other political news in the TPMDC Morning Roundup.

“The Daily Beast” columnist and OJ Simpson prosecutor Marcia Clark will be a guest on LKL tonight. The timing is amazing. No sooner did California Attorney General Jerry Brown bring down the hammer on prescription-pad pushers in the case involving Anna Nicole Smith , than a star with a million times the wattage, Michael Jackson, died of a drug cocktail seemingly administered by his recently hired live-in doctor, Conrad Murray. The Golden State’s crackdown on doctor-enablers could not be timelier had Brown owned a crystal ball.

There’s a lot of chatter, locally and nationally, over Sen. Orrin Hatch’s vote against confirming Justice Sotomayor for the Supreme Court, and deservedly so. The woman is qualified. There’s nothing against her except that “wise latina” remark. Senators who protest she’s not going to be “objective” are playing games, forgetting their own past histories of using “Roe v. Wade” as a litmus test because, obviously, if you won’t overturn Roe V. Wade you aren’t being objective.
