At Least Reid Picked a Female to Dub the Senate’s Hottest Member

CNN Political Ticker: All politics, all the time Blog Archive – Reid calls Gillibrand ‘the hottest member’ « – Blogs from CNN.com.

and we’re glad  Harry Reid doesn’t have Chris Matthew’s problem …….

From the Political Ticker:

“Reid made one of those comments Monday morning at a New York fundraiser hosted by Mayor Michael Bloomberg.”

“The Nevada Democrat referred to New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand “the hottest member,” which apparently made Gillibrand blush, according to two Democratic sources familiar with the incident.”

Oh……. by the way…….. Reid had to vote against the military spending bill which contains a repeal of “don’t ask, don’t tell”. There’s an election coming up, you know.

Not mentioned in the leftist press, which excuses Reid’s vote as procedural, is that the military spending bill also contains Roland Burris’s amendment to allow (coerce) abortions at military hospitals.

Not a Surprise Department

Koch Industries Lawyer to White House: How Did You Get Our Tax Information? | The Weekly Standard.

The Obama administration is expected to be rooting  through tax records of its opponents.  Look what the Obama cronies did to Joe the Plumber and Sarah Palin.

Imagine how your health care records and decisions will be handled by the regime.

FDA remembers the old days, when it used to do its job.

Dr. Gerard M. Nadal appropriately nails the non-functional FDA to the wall, noting it’s new Kelsey award, honoring a former FDA reviewer from back when the agency was worth something.

Frances O. Kelsey, now 96 years old, is the namesake and first recipient of the Kelsey award from the FDA for doing what she was supposed to do. She stopped distribution of Thalidomide, for morning sickness, in the USA, likely sparing countless kids the associated birth defect called phocomelia, severely shortened limbs.

Nadal notes that the present FDA commissioner, Margaret Hamburg has ushered in the new drug Ella, ulipristal acetate, without appropriate testing, and with next to zero study of its effects on the babies who survive its embryocidal effects. In addition, the FDA has misbranded this drug as a contraceptive, thus disrespecting female patients’ right of informed consent to treatment.

It’s Somewhat the Same for Victims of Rape

Molly Norris, “Draw Mohammed Day” Cartoonist, Placed On Execution Hitlist By Islamic Cleric Anwar al-Awlaki – Seattle News – The Daily Weekly.

She’s under a fatwa for starting an “everyone draw Mohammed” cartoon project.

The FBI answer for Molly Norris, to counteract the death threat against her by the same guy ( Anwar al-Awlaki)  who is credited with inciting the Fort Hood Massacre, is for her to change her identity and hide.

This is just more of the same.  The criminals run free, and the targets of crime are told to lock up, hide, limit their activity, be less of a target.   This has forever been so for rape victims, but is increasingly the case for others as well.

In Arizona, along the border, are government signs telling citizens to travel at their own risk.  The government can do nothing about the illegal immigration and associated criminal activity in the border regions of Arizona,  (except sue Arizona when the state tries to help itself).

Americans are asked to pay more and more to fund an increasingly IMPOTENT government, unable to perform the constitutionally directed functions.  It’s too busy snooping into the details of our personal lives to attend to its actual responsibilities.
