"And it’s coming at a time when the 3amET show is seeing big ratings in the A25-54 demographic – even topping CNN prime time last week.
....This time, the show had better ratings in the A25-54 demographic than Campbell Brown at 8pmET and Larry King at 9pmET, and tied Anderson Cooper at 10pmET (Monday-Thursday)."
Holy moley!
A 3 AM Fox show that no one has heard about beats CNN PRIME TIME!

Obama's Budget Means Higher Taxes and Lower Living Standards - WSJ.com
Obama's Budget Means Higher Taxes and Lower Living Standards
"Moody's Investors Service's warning last week that the AAA credit rating of the United States is in jeopardy raises fresh concern about the nation's fiscal health.
The question to ask about the president's eye-popping budget, also rolled out last week, is whether it prepares the country for its future—or shackles it to past decisions that our leaders would rather not confront.
President Obama's blueprint gave us a federal budget deficit for fiscal year 2010 of $1.6 trillion, about 10.6% of GDP.
While one expects bigger budget deficits in a downturn, the administration expects the deficit and debt buildup to persist.
By 2013, it forecasts that deficits will bring about a debt-to-GDP ratio of 72%, unprecedented in our experience except during a major war.
The problem is spending.
Despite Mr. Obama's words about restraint, the new budget proposes more spending—1.8% of GDP for 2011 to be precise—and a higher level, roughly one percentage point of GDP higher, in subsequent years"
2013 is only 3 years away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And EVERY city, county and state in our country is ignoring the very SAME disaster that will hit us ALL soon!
The local problem is government employee pay and benefits!
Too much pay for too little work for too little benefit for the taxpayer.
And automatically growing every year!

Iran anniversary 'punch' will stun West: Khamenei
Iran anniversary 'punch' will stun West: Khamenei
"Supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Monday that Iran is set to deliver a 'punch' that will stun world powers during this week's 31st anniversary of the Islamic revolution.
'The Iranian nation, with its unity and God's grace, will punch the arrogance (Western powers) on the 22nd of Bahman (February 11) in a way that will leave them stunned,' Khamenei, who is also Iran's commander-in-chief, told a gathering of air force personnel."
Mark your calendar!
Obama will probably send out invites to his class action lawyer comrades in advance.

"The 65 percentage-point gap between Democrats' (88%) and Republicans' (23%) average job approval ratings for Barack Obama is easily the largest for any president in his first year in office, greatly exceeding the prior high of 52 points for Bill Clinton."

Not only is it another idiotic wast of taxpayer future-money, it is so weird that most who watched didn't have a clue what is was about.

You probably didn't see it on any of the other Obama pandering "news" operations.

"The Detroit Free Press reports it appeared the man , who they describe as Arabic, did not appear to understand English as he passed through screening.
But police who took him into custody said that was not the case."
This could be another clear case of terrorists "testing the system".
Or not.
But it is sad that I tend to trust a newspaper over the local police in matters of terrorism and security.

Discount airline AirTran Airways will begin air service from Gerald R. Ford International Airport in May, with two flights a day to Baltimore and one to Orlando."
This is wonderful news.
But the newspaper's headline "... price competition expected" is perplexing.
Either they think their average reader needs help in understanding the concept of competition or that concept is new to the writer.
I'm not sure which is more disappointing.

Climate Change: Professional global warming alarmists better think about looking for new jobs. It looks like they're in for a long, cold winter — and a frigid spring and summer as well.
Those who've been spreading global-warming fears must be waking up each morning and asking themselves: What's going to happen today? A new revelation about the corruption of climate science has become almost a daily event.
On Thursday, the U.K.'s Telegraph reported that India was pulling out of the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and forming its own agency to study global warming. Why? Because the Indian government feels it can't depend on the IPCC's work.
And why should it? The concerns about the IPCC's accuracy are justified. A day after India's announcement, the Netherlands asked the U.N. to explain why the IPCC had said in its 2007 report that 55% of the country was below sea level when the Dutch themselves have reckoned that only 26% of the nation is that low.
This is the same IPCC that said in the same 2007 report that the Himalayan glaciers would melt by 2035 — though there's no scientific study to confirm the claim. It was based on the hunch of one scientist who expressed his opinion to a reporter.
The IPCC withdrew the assertion when it became widely known that it was bogus. But if the panel hadn't been called out, we suspect it would have kept mum.
Compounding the headaches for warm-mongers is a probe being launched by the British Parliament into the Climate Research Unit e-mail scandal. The inquiry is intended "to determine whether there is any evidence of the manipulation or suppression of data which is at odds with acceptable scientific practice and may therefore call into question any of the research outcomes."
This isn't terribly fresh news, having been announced on Jan. 22 by Parliament. But news that casts doubt on global warming tends to move slowly, if at all, in the U.S. media. If not for the foreign press, the inquiry would be virtually unknown in this country.
That 2007 report helped the IPCC win a share of the Nobel Prize. But its work is looking less credible by the day. Can any of its claims be trusted?
Its authors — who merely compiled others' work and did no research of their own — sure haven't inspired confidence in their work. In fact, their blunders are quickly pushing the global warming farce toward a grand collapse.

The mandate from Valerie Monchi was sent to research staff.
The Piigs nickname has grown increasingly popular in the last month as investors dumped assets in the euro zone’s smaller economies on concern the countries will struggle to control budget deficits."

"Asked if he agrees with Tancredo's description of Obama, Phillips said,
'The word 'socialist' is a word you don't want to be labeled with in the American political system.
It's got a lot of negative connotations, but it also has a very specific political meaning.
It refers to a specific political ideology.
I think it is very clear that that is the political ideology of Barack Obama.'"
If he walks like a socialist, talks like an ignorant socialist, bullies like a dictatorial socialist and hangs around with socialists and Communists, he's gotta be a socialist.
I get the sense that the author of this article intended to shock with the "socialist" comment and denegrate the Tea Party movement.

Know why? Because they receive millions of dollars from insurance companies they endorse and co-market.
AARP rarely bites the hand that feeds them.
So I would encourage the AARP nonprofit directors to put their members’ interests ahead of their corporate subsidiary’s business interests, for a refreshing change."
AARP is a liberal whore that preys on its unsuspecting customers in order to buy senators and congressmen..
There is also the fact that public pensions are going broke in just every state in the USA.
