The Three Most Important Charts in America
Conservative Resources
"It’s an election year and maybe the most important election year in American history. People need to know what happened in the past so they can place the blame for the current mess where it belongs and vote accordingly."
"With our president trotting around the country spreading the whopper lie that he’s not a big spender, let’s review the question of who’s to blame for the nation’s ongoing economic disaster. The question has three parts: one, which political party was most responsible for the mortgage bubble which caused the financial crisis; two, which political party is most responsible for the federal government’s suicidal overspending; and three, which president is most responsible for the overspending...."Keep Reading....

Quote of the Day
"President Barack Obama is racing down the trail blazed by Sen. George McGovern, who in 1972 was buried by the largest popular vote landslide in American history. ... Sen. McGovern was too far to the left, swing voters thought, and not very competent -- an image reinforced by the shambles his supporters made of the Democratic national convention.
Swing voters are forming a similar opinion about President Obama, who sometimes seems as if he's deliberately trying to dismantle the coalition that elected him in 2008 — Jack Kelly, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

A CIA Spook Spills His Secrets
Henry Crumpton's new book,"The Art of Intelligence," gives a rare glimpse into intelligence's inner workings.
Salon.com - "Crumpton joined the CIA’s clandestine service in 1981, spending much of the next quarter-century abroad. During the lead-up to and aftermath of 9/11, Crumpton was the deputy chief of the CIA’s Counterterrorism Center, participating in the rise of drone warfare and leading the agency’s Afghanistan campaign right after the attacks. He later headed the agency’s domestic clandestine service, ultimately serving as an ambassador-at-large as the State Department’s coordinator for counterterrorism.
With the publication of his book, Crumpton has made headlines with his assertion that there are now more spies operating on American soil than ever operated during the Cold War........."Keep Reading

Golden Girl Makes V.P. Short List
EXCLUSIVE: Betty White on Short List for V.P
 |
| Romney and White Talk Politics over Cream Cake |
"We felt that it was important for Mitt to pick an individual who would generate a favorable buzz and a limited amount of controversy, and frankly I think he's done that. After all, is there anyone out there who isn't a fan of Betty White these days? She's adorable and Mitt thinks she'll make a great Vice President. Not only that, but if Betty White were to make a bizarre or inappropriate statement, like telling the media where to get off, people will laugh and cheer instead of cringing and holding their breath the way they do whenever Joe Biden opens his mouth."The source noted that it will not be easy to get White on board as VP. The actress's career has been experiencing a resurgence since the early years of 2000; she has been in talks to host another upcoming episode of Saturday Night Live. As one adviser told us, the general consensus on both sides of the aisle is that Betty White is more likable than Sarah Palin and also better at reading cue-cards, and next to Biden would sound like an intellectual giant.
But as one Romney critic pointed out:
"Betty White is also 90 years old and a registered Democrat. But I guess after Obama's performance, why would she want to be anymore?"What she would bring to the ticket remains to be seen, and the fact her name is 'White' won't set well with some minority voters.
"If Mitt wants Betty White for VP, he was going to get her if he can. Every time we voiced our reservations, he just starts quoting that muffin sketch she did on Saturday Night Live that everyone loves."
"Betty White's no politician, but she's a ballsy Lady and got her head on straight, more or less. If Romney wants a candidate who could be a flat-out total nightmare, I suppose he could go with Ann Coulter ."
