Late Night Video — The Cain Train Wreck

This weekend’s news has been fascinated with the suspension of Herman Cain’s fake bid for the White House. Fake, because he was just opening a campaign HQ this weekend and still hasn’t actually staffed up to properly compete in either Iowa or NH. He *has* been furiously fundraising, selling books and managing his profile. Much like the Alaska grifter and all of the other GOP grifters looking for their pipeline of wingnut welfare, Herman was alot of sound and fury, signifiying nothing. Which ultimately qualified him to be the GOP frontrunner for one New York minute. And that “suspending” business seems to mean that Herman can still raise money.

Late Night Video — Emergency Default Crisis Rally

The American Dream Movement called for supporters to rally at the Congress last Thursday, that resulted in a few hundred folks who showed up to send a message to Congress asking for a debt deal that was fair for ordinary Americans — no cuts fo Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. I noted in a comment recently that this rally was held on the same day that the teajadis also rallied — with far fewer people (most accounts note that there was more press than ralliers), yet wall to wall coverage in the MSM.

Late Night Video — President Obama Discusses Getting Politics Done

This video is from the White House and comes from a surprise visit President Obama made to a group of College Democrats, Republicans and Independents back in March. This is very compelling — if anything because this philosophy of governing is very evident in how he has worked to date.

Late Night Video — Hear No Evil

The so-called Libertarian Rand Paul tells Sean Hannity that he is willing to undermine our freedom of assembly in order to round up people who are listening to people talking (just talking) about the overthrow of the US government.
