In my opinion, Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-NY) is a true up-and-comer in the Democratic Party. His biting sarcasm of the stupidity of Republican causes and the courage to not stand down gives me hope for Democrats moving forward. Here he takes Republicans to task for calling an emergency session to defund NPR, based on creepy fright-wing, Allen Funt wannabe, James O'Keefe's heavily edited video. Even Glenn Beck's website, The Blaze said NPR representative Ron Schiller did nothing controversial, but the video was edited so heavily, it made him look guilty of saying things he never said, nor implied. If even Beck's website called him out, you know it's bad. Faux Newz as a whole, on the other hand are probably having orgy.
We need more like Weiner and fewer like Evan Bayh (D-IN) who vacated his senate office last year because Washington "had became too partisan" --- so he joined "fair and balanced"
Faux Newz. I'm not kidding.

Wild Wednesday in Right Wing World
It was a big day in right wing world for all of you who may have missed these gems.
1. Wisconsin GOP State Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald (R-WI), admits that the goal is to defund labor unions to hurt Obama's re-election chances! A couple weeks ago, a prank call from a man impersonating billionaire David Koch called Gov. Scott Walker (R-WI) and during the call, SW revealed that he had crafted his “budget repair” bill in a bid to crush the labor unions. The revelation was at odds at the time with the GOP’s public argument, that removing collective bargaining rights has something to do with the state’s budget deficit. They're not even hiding it anymore!
2. Right wing lying, video editing, douche bag James O'Keefe punked NPR staffer, Ron Schiller by posing as a phony Muslim advocacy group interested in donating to NPR. At one point in the video, Schiller describes the teabaggers, er Tea Party as "... seriously, seriously racist people," Evidently telling the truth is a bad thing! Previous tapes by O'Keefe have turned out to be misleadingly edited, including the video that launched him to stardom featuring O'Keefe posing as a pimp in front of ACORN offices, so it's kind of amazing anyone takes this guy seriously. Yet today Vivian Schiller (no relation), President And CEO Of NPR resigned.
It should be noted that NPR refused the "donation." The right wing hold on EVERYTHING in this country should frighten people, but the blind will refuse to see the big picture.
USA Today.
3. Oh, and Newt Gingrich claims he's a serial adulterer because he's so passionate about his country and worked too hard! Seriously?! Is there anyone dumb enough to vote for this fool. Washington Monthly
