Sex-obsessed Foley returns to limelight with Facebook ‘drunk smear’
OPS_admin | Dec 29, 2009 | Comments 0
An Internet rumor about a Democratic senator being drunk on the Senate floor has prompted Mark Foley, the disgraced Florida Republican, to issue harsh words of condemnation that some observers see as being hypocritical.
Sen. Max Baucus (D-MT) was accused last week by an anonymous YouTube user of being drunk on the Senate floor December 22 when he criticized Republicans for negotiating in bad faith on health care reform. The video, posted by a user named “SocialistsSteal,” shows Baucus slurring his words on several occasions during his address.
As David Weigel points out at the Washington Independent, Baucus often slurs his words, and Politico reports that the Montana senator’s spokespeople are slamming the claim as an “untrue personal smear internet rumor.”

The oligarchs openly talking about a coup d'état in America?
Multi-millionaire lobbyist Grover Norquist is calling for the impeachment of President Obama. In an interview with the right-wing National Journal - Norquist warned that if President Obama wins re-election and decides to let the Bush tax cuts for the top 2% expire at the end of the year - then Republicans will "have enough votes in the Senate in 2014 to impeach [him]."What does that mean? It means that the super rich in America - and their political operatives like Norquist in Washington, DC - have now compared a tiny tax increase on the wealthy to high crimes and treason - the only Constitutional basis Congress can use to impeach a President. It sounds like the oligarchs are now openly talking about a coup d'état in America.-Thom(Do you think will try it? Tell us here.) -

The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.
