Now Eric Holder Sics The FBI on the the NYPD; Gallup: Half Of Americans View Obama's Tenure As A Failure; Was Fluke Really A Fluke?; GOP Enthusiam Gap?

From the Onion: "Exhausted Sweatshop Worker Just Has To Laugh After Sewing Fingers Together."  From Phnom Penh, Cambodia: Garment worker Nghiem Phuong said, after working her third straight 17 hour shift, she "couldn't help but laugh" after sewing her index and ring fingers together. She added, "Well, I guess it's just one of those days."

• If it was not bad enough that the media---especially the AP and Huffington Post rags---and other dimwits attacked the NYPD for keeping a close eye on mosques, Muslim hangouts and schools, now Eric Holder unleashed the FBI in criticizing the NYPD for the effective efforts in keeping all of us safe from another terrorist attack. This is my theory. Holder continues to be taken to task for the Fast and Furious fiasco (the screw up of sending hundreds of weapons to Mexican drug gangs that also resulted in the murder of an American law enforcement officer). He and Obama need another diversion---just like the fake, phony and fraud---contraception issue that so many fell for hook, line and sinker---including Santorum (fortunately not the Catholic Church and other religious institutions). And remember: The FBI missed the entire 9/11 conspiracy from its origin until the aircraft slammed into the towers. Since 9/11, the NYPD has foiled at least 12 terror plots and probably more we will never hear about. So if I were Ray Kelly---NYPD head honcho---I'd tell Holder to shove it. What we're doing is working.

• I wish I could tell you the following piece and headline came from The Onion, but I can't. To give you some idea how the media is circling the wagons around Pres. Obama (in addition to hailing the sh!tty unemployment numbers---my piece below), here's a headline on Politico yesterday: "Obama As Progressive Pragmatist." Ready to barf yet?

Pres. Obama Loses Democratic Primary in...; Super Dudsday; Tricare Hit Hard in President's Budget; Dennis is History; Highest Murder Rate in The World...?; Did Obama Back-Track On Iran Again?; Putin's Thugs Continue Their Rampage Against Protesters; Humongous Solar Eruption Heading Our Way; So Who Will Get Peyton Manning?

Headline in The Onion's "National News" section with a photo of a young couple smiling broadly: "Cute Couple On Same Antidepressant."

• I know. I know. You wondering and you might just be asking yourself: What the heck is up with that headline? Obama loses Democratic Primary in...? I thought it was all about the Republicans last night? It was, but here's the rest of the story. Obama did lose...in Oklahoma's Democratic Primary last night. He lost 15 counties in the state. He won just 57% of the vote. But before Republicans start popping those corks, they need to know that the president failed to win a single country in Oklahoma in 2008. AP

• Now, let's check out Super Tuesday (I prefer to call it, Super Dudsday). First of all, Romney won ugly. For a guy who outspent Santorum 6-1 in Ohio and to barely win shows Romney is still weak.  But a win is a win to use an overused and silly phrase. On the other hand, Santorum appears to have locked up his status as the main challenger to Romney by winning Tennessee so decisively (37%28% as of last night). Santorum keeps collecting the strong conservative votes. And guess what primaries are coming up next week? Some of the strongest conservative states in America that include Alabama, Mississippi and Kansas. Romney continues to have problems in the South. That's the only region in the country where Newt has some strength.
• There is one strong piece of data that should put a smile on Romney's face. He's ahead 2-1 among those Republicans who think he's the most electable and can beat Obama. So he appears to be the favorite at this point in time. However, he's been losing the independent voters in the last month or more. In addition, according to Gallup, Romney's favorable-unfavorable ratings are 45-46%, not that good (but a smile should return to his face when he sees the president's polling in that same category are no great shakes either---50-45%---and the president's approval rating is back down to 43% from just 50% two weeks ago).

Limbaugh Has Nothing On The Elite Media When It Comes To Attacking Women; Super Tuesday Is Finally Here; Muslim Groups Support NYPD; Putin Already Using Thug Tactics

In a speech on Wall Street the other day, Obama compared himself to Gandhi. Well, that makes a lot of sense. He's created a lot of jobs in India.---Leno

• In my report on Limbaugh yesterday, I wrote what he said about Sandra Fluke was inappropriate. In addition, it hands the opposition another diversion from what the real problems are with the Obama administration. But let's take a look at how the liberal elite media's been treating Conservative women for many years, especially since Palin came on the scene. For example, The Washington Post referred to Bachmann as a "barbie with fangs in addition to attacking her on her religious beliefs and heated rhetoric. Bill Maher called Palin the "C" word, and "dumb twat." (I'd like to see this little piece of garbage say that to Palin's face or even her husband Todd's face behind some closed doors. Let's see who comes out of that room on their feet). He joked about Santorum's wife using a vibrator (try saying that about Michelle Obama you putz). Ed Shultz of MSNBC called Laura Ingraham a "talk slut" on his national radio show (I believe he did apologize for his comments). However, Babara WaWa laughed it off at the time.  Herr Keith Olberman, when he was on MSNBC, referred to Michelle Malkin as "A mashed up bag of meat with lipstick on it."  Montel Williams, on Air America, rooted for Bachmann to slit her own throat. There are tons of these examples showing how the media attacks conservative women and gets away with it. In fact, no one asked any of these nitwits to apologize (The National Organization of Women did criticize Maher for some of his language, but advertisers have not abandoned him) . As for all of the other shows and publications, no one asked advertisers to divorce themselves from either.
• So why is Rush the target? Two very simple reasons in my opinion: He's now become the issue; therefore, it's a diversion from more important issues. Just as important for the Left, they believe they now have the opportunity to take Rush out (it's the Left that has no respect for the 1st Amendment when it comes to conservatives). They've been trying for years and have failed. Hard to predict, but I think Rush can handle this one.

• Super Tuesday has finally arrived. This is like Christmas for these political observers. And it should be. Ten states are involved with 419 delegates as the top prize. Santorum and Romney still appear to be deadlocked in Ohio and Tenn. Yet, as big a day as this is in the primary campaign, most observers agree that this day will not decide who wins the race for the Republican nomination.
• As you might imagine all the usual  left and progressive groups have been coming out in the last several weeks regarding the NYPD's aggressive counter-terrorism tactics. So it was refreshing to see that some Muslim groups rallied in support of the NYPD yesterday at NYPD headquarters. The leaders of the group said the NYPD helps keep their communities safe. "The police. They come to us and say, 'Is everything OK? How can we help you?'" said Imam Qayyoom. USA TODAY

• In case you might not know.  The masterminds of the first World Trade Center attack in 1993 were headquartered in Jersey City, NJ. They had safe houses throughout NJ and NY. They were also planning on blowing up bridges and tunnels. I'd say the NYPD is doing one hell-of-a-job keeping us all safe, especially those living in Northern NJ and NY City. Oh, yes, one more thing. The NYPD lost 23 officers on 9/11 and the Port Authority Police lost  37. I'd venture to say: they have skin in this game.

While visiting the GM plant last week Pres. Obama pledged to buy a Chevy Volt after his presidency ends in five years. Today Mitt said, "Make it one year and I'll buy it for you."...Leno

• Referencing Leno above, in his speech to union auto workers at GM last week, Pres. Obama did say he would purchase a Chevy Volt after he left office. But a curious thing happened within 3 days of that speech: GM announced it would halt production of the Volt and lay off 1,300 production line workers. So I ask this question: Did Pres. Obama know that GM would cease production of the Volt when he told GM workers he would purchase a Volt? The answer to that question is YES! How could he not know. The government owns a piece of the company. He knew. And because he knew, he lied. And this was not a small fib. It was a bold-faced lie. This is very similar to the scandal involving Solyndra. At the time, Slo Joe Biden praised the company. Did he know it would go bankrupt too? I don't know the answer to that question, but these two definitely knew about the Volt's poor sales numbers.  (Chevy has only sold 10,000 Volts since 2010. Twenty-percent were sold to the U.S. government. And how much did the Volt cost each taxpayer because GM received a bailout from US taxpayers?---try $250,000 grand according to the Mackinac Center for Public Policy.)
• And before anyone says, "Well, all politicians lie." Yes, many do. But this speech to the auto workers was a major policy speech. The president wasn't visiting a local diner and just shooting the breeze with several auto workers over a cup of coffee. He knew the Chevy was suspending operations when he spoke to all the auto workers.

• Speaking of politicians lying, I came to a conclusion many years ago. It's no longer Democrats vs. Republicans; it's both parties vs. the people. Both of these political parties sold out years ago, perhaps many decades ago. They don't have our interests in mind anymore. It's now all about pandering. It's all about lying. And it's all about lining their pockets with wads of OUR money or else just giving our money away. This may be a cynical view of politics, but from what we've seen over the years---can anyone come to any other conclusion? I doubt it.
