Rule of Law, Crying Senators and downplaying Terrorist Masterminds

It looks like the constitution and the rule of law get a rare victory in the U.S. Congress. Roland Burris will be seated in the Senate. As much as the Senate Democrats tried to block his appointment, they didn't have the law on their side. Although the Illinois Governor is obviously corrupt, the appoint was just as obviously legal. Ol' Blago the auctioneer is probably laughing it up. Well, that's until his indictment comes.

Obama names watchdog that he'll use to monitor and control federal spending. Yeah, she'll be very proactive. She'll be like that SEC enforcement guy in the movie Boiler Room. I'm sure she'll start the day after Obama's $800 billion dollar stimulus bill is enacted.

As our State Department announces that bin Laden and Al-Queda has been rendered impotent, Al-Queda's #2 is blaming Barack Obama for the war in Gaza. I'm sure it's convenient for them to say that in order to protect their legacy. But, the reality of the situation is that these guys can still plan, organize and distribute their message. As long as they are walking around freely, they are a threat.

Florida's GOP Chair Jim Greer is set to endorse Michael Steele for the RNC Chair position. That's good news. But, he still has a long way to go.

Diane Feinstein has her poor little feelings hurt that she wasn't consulted on the Leon Panetta pick for CIA Chief. Pobrecita!!!!!

Former Atlanta Falcon Bob Whitfield's gold-digging ex-wife is whining that she cannot continue to live her lifestyle on a measly $113k per year. Time to get a day job cutie.

Hillary Clinton is expected to breeze through confirmation.
