Obama’s detractors throw around lots of words to describe him. On the one hand, he is a socialist because he apparently believes in redistributing the wealth and, and on the other hand he is a fascist because, like Hitler, he stands in front of large crowds, and they are mesmerized by him.

GOP watch: Ensign in Iowa
The Las Vegas Sun says that Nevada Sen. John Ensign’s visit to Iowa today “continues to stoke speculation that the rising conservative leader is testing for a presidential run in 2012. Ensign will speak before a conservative organization in Republican-friendly Sioux City, and make a few other stops. He admits he has thought about being president — what politician hasn’t? — he recently suggested to an interviewer.”
The AP looks at the GOP activity in Iowa. “Pot…

And then there's more.....
(AP) The U.S. Postal Service has cut its staff by 25,000 this year as it struggles to reduce massive deficits, Postmaster General John Potter said Monday.
Postal employment is now below 635,000, Potter said, down from about 800,000 in 1999.
Thousands of carrier routes have also been eliminated as mail volume declines, he said.
"We have an infrastructure that, quite frankly, we cannot afford based on the income we're receiving," Potter said.
The agency still…

(NaturalNews) H1N1 influenza (swine flu) has spread beyond the ability of the CDC to track it, leading one of its health authorities (Daniel Jernigan) to admit that 100,000 Americans are likely already infected by the swine flu.
The CDC has only "confirmed" 4,714 cases of the flu so far, but by its own admission, the CDC's testing lab is so hopelessly overloaded that it has all but abandoned trying to identify every case of swine flu. All it can do now is estimate the likely number of infect…

President Obama is distancing himself from the National Day of Prayer by nixing a formal early morning service and not attending a large Catholic prayer breakfast the next morning.
All Mr. Obama will do for the National Day of Prayer, which is Thursday, is sign a proclamation honoring the day, which originated in 1952 when Congress set aside the first Thursday in May for the observance.
For the past eight years, President George W. Bush invited selected Christian and Jewish leaders to the Whit…

The swine flu has arrived in South Carolina just as the state's farmers are bringing in thousands of workers from Mexico to help with peaches and other crops.
The outbreak has raised concerns about the health of workers already here. Farmers in some parts of the state worry they'll be unable to get enough labor in time to meet critical harvest deadlines, although in Beaufort County, one health official expects little fallout.
While public health officials say there is no evidence Mexican wo…

With unemployment at sky-high levels in this state, Florida officials were forced to admit they were using tax dollars to subsidize jobs — in India.
What was even more appalling was that the jobs were at a call center for the state's food-stamp help line, part of a multimillion-dollar contract with JP Morgan Chase.
