It will not stop raining. It's been like a week. The window of opportunity for further grilling is slowly closing. Panic sets in. Now here's the news...
Huge scandal as it's revealed that the White House strong-armed Ford into pulling ads critical of the auto bailout. The only problem with this story is that it seems to be completely made up.
The GOP plans to create a whole bunch of jobs by investigating Planned Parenthood for no good reason.
A local Los Angeles nutjub is dragged out of an Obama speech after shouting that the President is the antichrist. An LA County supervisor says the guy routinely shows up to county board meetings to make lunatic statements. "He talks about Jews in his diatribes and seems very anti-Semitic," says Michael Antonovich. "I don't have the impression he's dangerous, but he has issues that could use some help."
Turns out that cutting Keith Olbermann loose was about the worst thing MSNBC could've done, ratings wise.
The Tea Party specializes in solving problems that don't actually exist.
When the guys at the foundation dedicated to perpetuating the policies of Herbert Freakin' Hoover don't like your jobs plan, it's probably awesome.
The White House is extremely confident that the Affordable Care Act will survive a SCOTUS test.
Tea Party hero Rick Perry doesn't know what the original Tea Party was all about.
Finally, John Huntsman may be disqualified from an Oct. GOP debate due to low poll numbers.

The big story from last night; Olbermann's out at MSNBC, effective the signoff of his final show. Here's that signoff:
There's been some noise that Keith's been ousted because of the Comcast merger, but this strikes me as maybe not so true (a suspicion backed up here). MSNBC still has Rachel Maddow, Lawrence O'Donnell, and Ed Schultz, so the idea that Olbermann was "too liberal" for his new corporate masters seems to hit kind of a false note -- if I were looking for people who were dangerous to the corporate bottom-line, I'd be a lot more worried about Rachel Maddow's investigative bent. Check out Steve Benen's take on the whole thing here. If that's not enough, there's just boatloads of commentary here. As I said, it's the big story.
Speaking of "dangerous" cable hosts, let's take off the quotation marks. Glenn Beck is dangerous. Sooner or later, this bastard is going to get someone killed.
The right goes from asking why lefties are so "obsessed" with Sarah Palin to asking why the left is refusing to cover Sarah Palin. Make up your freakin' minds, people.
Former GOP congress critter Bob Barr loves him some "Baby Doc" Duvalier. Republicans -- authoritarians at their core -- just can't get enough of monsters.
The governments of states across the nation have become a lot more anti-abortion-rights recently, which never works out well for the GOP in the end. Nothing brings out the crazy like abortion. You thought the 'baggers were crazy? You ain't seen nothin' yet.
Finally, when you see them laid out graphically, the shift in Obama approvals looks pretty radical.
