President Obama Receives A Call To Action

Help President Obama win the Heisman Trophy! You can VOTE DAILY, so be sure to bookmark the link.

And here you can read about people who might have won, but are less deserving than Obama.

Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL), Demonizer

How do these shenanigans help Florida's 8th District? Vote him out. Don't need him. And where are the manners mavens of the House when one of their own is a total Civility FAIL? Check out his lame presentation below:

Don't Blame Healthcare!

Obummer: I spent it all, but want to spend more on healthcare.

Obama knows what you need.

Better green than safe.

You won't mind paying more to assuage your guilt.

WH: Fundamentals Of The Economy Are Sound, But Not Strong

Remember when John McCain was "out of touch" for saying the fundamentals of the economy were strong?

Now the Obamians are trying to undo the sour mood they've unleashed on the economy.

...on Sunday, that optimistic message came from economic adviser Christina Romer. When asked during an appearance on NBC's "Meet the Press" if the fundamentals of the economy were sound, she replied: "Of course they are sound."

"The fundamentals are sound in the sense that the American workers are sound, we have a good capital stock, we have good technology," she said. "We know that -- that temporarily we're in a mess, right? We've seen huge job loss, we've seen very large falls in GDP. So certainly in the short run we're in a -- in a bad situation."

It is awesome to watch Press SecRATary Robert Gibbs ramble aimlessly as he tries to think of an actual difference between "strong" and "sound".

Rat Chat Celebrates Moronapalooza

I'm ba-a-ack! And so is Rat Chat. This blog will be all Rat Chat, all the time. There is great material coming out of the Office of the President-Elect! Still recovering from a hideous technical disruption, but now have files moved to a new laptop. I took the opportunity for a little blog housekeeping.

GOP Tantrum - You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet!

Uproarious that when a Republican gets outside the box that the media allows them to be in, it's called a "tantum". And I know you'll enjoy this little movie:

MSM Shill Sacrifices Her Deeply Held Principles To Keep Her Job

Video of the apology at The Jawa Report

Video of the name-calling incident follows. Notice the ease with which the language of the moonbat rolls from her tongue. It sounds to me like she speaks that language often. Her ranting about Guiliani's "mancrush" on Sarkozy is beyond strange. Could it be an attempt to incite disgust among the supposed homophobes of the right? Does she really think we're more retarded than she is?

Is Fox News Biased Against Fred Thompson?

It's no secret to readers of Rat Chat that I support Fred Thompson. And it's no secret to viewers of FNC's Special Report that the mention of Thompson's name usually elicits, "His campaign has problems! Tee hee!" The Panel is monolithic re: Fred. And when Fred's campaign has good news, we don't hear it first on Fox. Here is what Thompson had to say about it on Fox News Sunday yesterday:

The Hill: Thompson charges Fox News is biased against his campaign

I think there is a case to be made for bias by omission and bias by source selection. That's just not okay.

Response from the media bias community is disappointing as well. Consider this moronic analysis from Noel Sheppard at Newsbusters:

"This should certainly raise the eyebrows of folks around the country who believe Fox News is too conservative."

Where have I heard that reasoning before? Oh, yeah. ABCNNBCBSMSNBC. (For real fun, read the comments at Sheppard's post.) Meanwhile, nobody at the Media Research Center wants to touch this one with a ten foot pole. Cowards.

But before I go, how about that classy crap on O'Reilly's body language segment tonight? He aired a context-free clip of Fred Thompson stuttering for Tonya, the body language expert, to analyze.
