Politics

After seeing 100 headlines about Mitt Romney's son helping people from a car crash, I have no doubt that Josh plans to run for office.

Obama calls tea partiers tea baggers in letter to grade school teacher. Do you think the press will excoriate and blackball him like Mel Gibson? Or maybe there will be a double standard.

The sad, sad reality of politics and the media:
"When, after the massacres at Newtown and the Washington Navy Yard, Republicans refused to outlaw the AR-15 rifle or require background checks for gun purchasers, we were told the party had committed suicide by defying 90 percent of the nation.
When Republicans rejected amnesty and a path to citizenship for illegal aliens, we were told the GOP had just forfeited its future.
When House Republicans refused to fund Obamacare, the government was shut down and the Tea Party was blamed, word went forth:
The GOP has destroyed its brand. Republicans face a wipeout in 2014. It will take a generation to remove this mark of Cain.
Eight weeks later, Obama’s approval is below 40 percent. Most Americans find him untrustworthy. And the GOP is favored to hold the seats it has in the House while making gains in the Senate."
Republicans, despite themselves, were right on all these policies, then Obamacare exposed itself to millions of Americans. Oops.
