For the latest Politico Arena, I wrote:

Republicans were for the individual mandate before they were against it. And they were against partisan judicial activism before they were for it.

The president is right in pointing out what polls say 75% of Americans already know – that the Supreme Court will decide the health care case based on politics, not the Constitution. And the president is right to challenge intransigent conservative gridlock in Washington – from Congress to the high court – which is plainly putting partisan politics ahead of progress and the needs of the American people.

If you wanna go over to the Politico site and show me some social media love, please do!

My take on the final showdown — by which I mean the default crisis, not Harry Potter…  >>  If you want to receive my adVantage Points every weekday morning in your inbox, email info@movementvision.org


“Decision Time” Says Obama story
If only we got a trillion dollars every time Republicans tried to pass the buck on the default crisis — we’d be out of the hole in no time!  Republicans have already won just by the fact that we’re having this debate; and they’ve already exacted more cuts to vital spending than tax increases on the table.  Republicans — putting the id in ideology.

Impeachment Time
Seriously, the 1-in-4 House Republicans who say they won’t vote to increase the debt ceiling no matter what are in blatant violation of the Constitution.  Not to mention that running for government office with the intention of destroying government is treasonous.

My thoughts on unemployment rate, debt negotiations, 14th Amendment option, space shuttle launch and Texas execution of a Mexican citizen >>  By the way, if you want to receive my adVantage Points every weekday morning in your inbox, email info@movementvision.org

Unemployment Rate Edges Up to 9.2% story
Wall Street profits and CEO bonuses are at record highs this year.  But unemployment continues to plague middle class Americans.  Oooooh, I know — let’s give the rich people more tax breaks!  ’Cuz that already worked well so far…

White House Headed For Grand Concession On Debt? story
Republicans ran up the deficit and now don’t want to pay for it, instead using the crisis they manufactured as a fig leaf excuse for their long-held agenda to destroy government.  Despite trying to wrap themselves in the Constitution, Tea Party Republicans are tearing our Constitution and founding principles to shreds.

Texas, Gov. Perry Execute Mexican National story
Voters got a sneak peak at what Rick Perry would be like as president.  Perry refused to talk to the Mexican ambassador on the phone.  He can execute a potentially innocent man but cannot execute basic diplomacy.

Final Space Shuttle Potentially To Launch If Weather Permits story
For the record, conservatives in Congress oppose spending cuts for the space shuttle program and favor cuts to heating oil assistance and food stamps for struggling families.  Launch or no launch, that’s quite a spectacle.
