Known as "The Most Trusted Man In America", television news giant Walter Cronkite has died at the age of 92 from complications of dementia. Cronkite was in the anchor chair to report some of the most memorable moments of the 20th century, including the first moon landing, the assasination of Martin Luther King, Jr. and the assasination of President John F. Kennedy.
Cronkite always ended his nightly news broadcast by announcing "and that's the way it is"
Indeed.

More C Street Reporting
If you haven't seen the first C Street video that was posted, please scroll down and review that one first.
Why Is Fox News Not Talking About The C Street Group?
This is a brilliant piece of reporting by Rachel Maddow of MSNBC. Her reporting sheds light on a secret religious group of Republican lawmakers who adhere to their "own" code of ethics which apparently doesn't involve being honest with the people who elected them. Seems they are only answerable to themselves. I just wonder why Fox News, with all it's investigative reporting on Obama's associations and Clinton's fundraising, hasn't sniffed this one out. Heck, they knew about Ensign because the husband of the woman he was cheating with went to Fox News... of all places, hoping the cable "news" channel could make Ensign stop sleeping with his wife!! You mean they didn't send Griff Jenkins to Ensign's doorstep for one of those famous ambush interviews? Maybe it was just an oversight.
Jon Stewart Owns Lindsey Graham

Is The GOP Trying To Threaten Obama?
Virginia GOP Delegation nominee, Catherine Crabill says that if the ballot box doesn't work, we can resort to the "bullet box". So......if you can't get what you want by voting in an election then you'll..........? Maybe DHS should ask her what she meant.
The Brilliance Of Right Wing Radio
A 2 minute collection of the intellectual stylings of some prominent right wing radio talk show hosts including Michael Savage, Laura Ingraham and Rush.
Pat Buchanan Calls Sotomayor "Affirmative Action" Nominee
According to Pat Buchanan, Sonia Sotomayor was chosen for the Supreme Court by Obama because she is Latina and a woman. Forget the fact that she graduated at the top of her class at Yale and she has more judicial experience than any other Supreme Court nominee in history. Sounds like Pat is saying Sotomayor shouldn't be confirmed to the Supreme Court BECAUSE she is a Latina woman.

Maybe We Should Question Jeff Sessions About This
Wouldn't it be great if Jeff Sessions were up for some sort of confirmation hearing? That way we could cut this clip at the beginning and then grill him about whether or not he's a drug addict? It's not nice when people take your words out of context is it Mr. Sessions?
Hannity Puts On His Tin Foil Hat
Are these NeoCons (emphasis on Con) serious? Is this how they're going to win back the White House? These guys are still pressing the bogus argument that our President wasn't born in the United States. I would post the link of the Birth Certificate but you can find it yourself by Googling "Obama Birth Certificate"
Peter King aka Congressman Scumbag
It's so hard for Conservatives to appreciate the fact that a lot of people adored Michael Jackson. Yes, the news coverage was a little much but, the media covers tons of stories ad nauseum. King goes waaaaay over the top by branding Jackson a pedophile. What a disgrace. Shouldn't the good Rep be worried about why the Republicants continue to lose ground with American voters? This, in my opinion is just more red meat for his kooky base.
Savage Hypocrisy over Sotomayor
I just find it totally funny that Michael Savage can't recongnize that one's life experience may have some input on how they might decide cases. I mean, minorities were never treated worse than anyone else by white judges and juries, right?
