• 'Shame on me,' says Obama voter

  —Patrick McIlheran: Right On

  The voter would be essayist Michael Goodwin in the New York Post, who writes, "President Obama, for whom I voted because I believed he was the best choice available, is a profound disappointment." His reason is especially worth reading: "His rhetorical gifts now serve his loathsome habit of fear-mongering. [...]

• Challenge The Status Quo, Expect Disappointment, But Don't Quit

  —The Political Environment

  It wasn't the greatest week to be a progressive.
  
  Yes, the Democrats appear to have reached the necessary 60 votes to win Senate approval (against an intransigent, 100% negative GOP minority) for a health care reform bill, but the result is weaker than what was hoped for, as well' [...]

• Farthest-right nuts oppose Butler appointment

  —illusory tenant

  Get a load of this tripe in the American Expectorator.* Brent Bozell? Mat Staver? Alfred Regnery?!? Is this a parody? I'm hard pressed to think of a more compelling endorsement for Louis Butler. Conservatives must be proud: they smeared him out of State office and now they're smearing him again, to prevent [...]

• The Obama jobs summit

  —Milwaukee Rising

  What a disappointment President Barack Obama’s financial policies are. Wall Street reform hasn’t happened and while tens of millions of people are unemployed, Obama…has a meeting.

  About 130 people were invited to yesterday’s gathering, which may mean that the meeting — a “jobs summit: — put a couple of caterers to [...]

  —Watchdog Milwaukee

  Number of comments: 3
  

  The Shepherd-Express has given Milwaukee County Supervisor Lynne DeBruin the title “Jerk of the Week” for her votes siding with County Executive Scott Walker on the recently passed budget.

  I can understand why they did it and DeBruin has certainly been a disappointment on many issues but while I don’t agree [...]

  As the Thanksgiving Holiday approaches and we will have relatively slow news cycles, it will be the perfect time for the Obama administration to follow it’s established practice and announce a new program, appointment, dismissmal, policy, etc. that it wishes to receive as little publicity as possible. But no, they [...]
