"Couric said on 'CBS Evening News' that Americans are growing 'disenchanted' with Obama and are openly questioning his credibility.
"'Is the honeymoon over?' anchor Couric said at the beginning of her correspondent’s report.
"'Although President Obama has been in office less than a year, many Americans are growing disenchanted with his handling of the enormous problems he and the country are facing, from healthcare to unemployment to Afghanistan.
"'His poll numbers are sliding, and at least one poll shows his job approval rating has fallen, for the first time, below 50 percent.'
"Correspondent Chris Reid chimed in: 'The president is getting battered on everything from the economy to foreign policy. Some polls show Americans are increasingly questioning his credibility.'
"The report asserted that while Obama talks about dealing with unemployment, which is over 10 percent and expected to rise, he has developed 'no new ideas' for dealing with the problem."

Experts: Health care bills do nothing to lower costs
"One of the White House's biggest boasts about the health care legislation now moving through Congress is that it should reduce health care costs for both government and society.
"Many prominent experts are skeptical, however, and some say that the Obama administration's wrong."

AP: IAEA chief: Iran probe at 'dead end'
"International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) chief Mohamed ElBaradei said Thursday that his probe of allegations that Iran was trying to produce nuclear arms is at 'a dead end' because Teheran is not cooperating."
Mike Adams: Chemotherapy for testicular cancer causes long-term neurological damage
"As this study goes to show, chemotherapy is poison. While chemo may at first appear to be working by shrinking a tumor, it is in fact a systemic poison that will inevitably destroy cells throughout the body, most notably in the brain, heart, liver and kidneys."
George Washington's 1789 Thanksgiving Proclamation
Whereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor; and Whereas both Houses of Congress have, by their joint committee, requested me to "recommend to the people of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer, to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness:"
Now, therefore, I do recommend and assign Thursday, the 26th day of November next, to be devoted by the people of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being who is the beneficent author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be; that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our sincere and humble thanks for His kind care and protection of the people of this country previous to their becoming a nation; for the signal and manifold mercies and the favorable interpositions of His providence in the course and conclusion of the late war; for the great degree of tranquility, union, and plenty which we have since enjoyed; for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enable to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national one now lately instituted for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and, in general, for all the great and various favors which He has been pleased to confer upon us.
And also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech Him to pardon our national and other transgressions; to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually; to render our National Government a blessing to all the people by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed; to protect and guide all sovereigns and nations (especially such as have shown kindness to us), and to bless them with good governments, peace, and concord; to promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science among them and us; and, generally to grant unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as He alone knows to be best.
Given under my hand, at the city of New York, the 3d day of October, A.D. 1789.

Phil Jones has collected a staggering $22.6 million in grants
"I wonder if Phil remembers the $22.6 million in grants. I wonder if he "remembers" only those things that the IPCC wants him to remember.

The Black Movement is Dead or Sold Out
"As I promised I've added a little more clarity to the reason why I believe the Black Movement has been killed by the 'Black' Obama. I make a point of Obama's "Blackness" because I believe it has silenced the voice of the 'Black' working class. Let's face it... who among 'Black Americans' really want's to publicly criticize the First Black President of the United States of America? I believe it is hurting our ability to see straight. Where are the 'Black' leaders that will challenge Obama openly to do right by the people?"
James Shott: A Glance at Climategate…
"* From the Atlanta Journal Constitution we have an article that begins by discussing the contradictory evidence of the last decade and states, 'What was missing was a paper trail indicating that warmists were manipulating the exchange of information and attempting to silence skeptics. Until now.'
"* From The Examiner, a fairly decent overview that pulls from the hacked missives the following admission from leading catastrophe advocate, Kevin Trenberth: 'The fact that we can not account for what is happening in the climate system makes any consideration of geoengineering quite hopeless as we will never be able to tell if it is successful or not!'
"* From ABC we learn that climate alarmists celebrated the death of a worthy opponent, calling the death of Australian John Daly 'cheering.'"
"* From The Telegraph we have four great stories worth reading: Climategate e-mails sweep America, may scuttle Barack Obama’s Cap and Trade laws…Climategate: sack ‘no longer credible’ Michael Mann from IPCC urges climatologist…Climategate: the final nail in the coffin of ‘Anthropogenic Global Warming’?…and…Climategate: how the MSM reported the greatest scandal in modern science.
"* From The Toronto Sun we get a nice rant, Worshipping at church of climate ’science’, which sums up the 'science' of climate change nicely, 'Science without a healthy dose of skepticism and which isn’t open to hard questioning becomes ideology. An ideology is a closed system that distorts or excludes empirical data to serve its dogma.'"

James Shott: If this were George W, would you approve?
"If George W. Bush had been the first President to need a teleprompter installed to be able to get through a press conference, would you have laughed and said that this is more proof of how inept he is on his own, and that he’s really controlled by smarter men behind the scenes?
"If George W. Bush had spend hundreds of thousands of dollars of taxpayer money to take Laura Bush to a play in NYC in the middle of a terrible economic crisis, would you have approved?
"If George W. Bush had reduced your retirement plan’s holdings of GM stock by 90% and given the unions a majority stake, would you have approved?
"If George W. Bush had made a joke at the expense of the Special Olympics, would you have approved?
"If George W. Bush had given Gordon Brown a set of inexpensive and incorrectly formatted DVDs when the Prime Minister had given him a thoughtful and historically-significant gift, would you have approved?
"If George W. Bush had given the Queen of England an iPod containing videos of his speeches, would you have thought him embarrassingly narcissistic and tacky?
"If George W. Bush had bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia, would you have approved?
"If George W. Bush had visited Austria and made reference to the non-existent 'Austrian language,' would you have brushed it off as a minor slip?
"If George W. Bush had filled his cabinet and circle of advisers with people who cannot seem to keep current with their income taxes, would you have approved?
"If George W. Bush had steadfastly refused to release his educational records, would you have nodded to yourself and thought, 'What’s he hiding that he doesn’t want us to know'?
"If George W. Bush had been so Spanish-illiterate as to refer to 'Cinco de Cuatro' in front of the Mexican ambassador when it is the 5th of May (Cinco de Mayo), and continued to flub it when he tried again, would you have winced in embarrassment?
"If George W. Bush had mis-spelled the word 'advice,' would you have hammered him for it for years (like Dan Quayle and 'potatoe') as proof of what a dunce he is?
"If Goerge W. Bush had burned 9,000 gallons of jet fuel to go plant a singe tree on Earth Day, would you have concluded he’s a hypocrite?
"If George W. Bush’s administration had okayed Air Force One flying low over millions of people, followed by a jet fighter, in lower Manhattan, causing wide-spread panic, would you have wondered whether they actually get what happened on 9-11?
"If George W. Bush had failed to send relief aid to flood victims throughout the Midwest, with more people killed or made homeless than in New Orleans, would you want it made into a major ongoing political issue with claims of racism and incompetence?
"If George W. Bush had ordered the firing of the CEO of a major corporation, even through he had no constitutional authority to do so, would you have approved?
"If George W. Bush had proposed to double the national debt, which had taken more than two centuries to accumulate, in one year, would you have approved?
"If George W. Bush had then proposed to double the debt again within 10 years, would you have approved?
"So, explain to me again exactly what it is about Obama that you think makes him so brilliant and impressive? Can’t think of anything? Don’t worry. He’s done all this in just 8 months, so you’ll have three years and four months to come up with an answer."

Yid with Lid: Joy Behar: Dumber Than a Thanksgiving Turkey
GOLDBERG: Oh, hello and welcome to ‘The View.' Today is Black Friday, all day long," Goldberg said. "And I'm going to stay black all day because of it.
BEHAR: Isn't it a little racist to call it Black Friday?
GOLDBERG: Well, I would have called it African American Friday, but that's taking something away from it.
BEHAR: But there's a negative connotation to it? Or does it mean something else?
GOLDBERG: No, it's like when you make all the money - you're in the black.
BEHAR: So it's positive?
GOLDBERG: Yeah. It's in the black, so it's a huge great thing.
BEHAR: A lot of times, like blackmail is negative, black sheep.
GOLDBERG: Black people.
BEHAR: No, not black people.
GOLDBERG: But it used to be, it used to be.
"Don't worry Joy, both Clint Black and Jack Black are changing their last names so you wont get confused. Sheeesh ! This is the lady who calls Sarah Palin and Airhead?"
