Rush: New Net Neutrality Rules Are 'Solution in Search of a Problem'
After the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) approved new regulations Tuesday which set guidelines for internet providers, conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh attacked the idea, calling a "solution in search of a problem." There is no problem with the internet as it is, Rush notes, but progressive liberals are looking for ways to control the internet as more and more people turn to web surfing every day

Barney Frank: Not Allowing Gays and Straights to Shower Together is 'Discrimination'
"To accept the principle that homosexuals can't shower with other people is a degree of discrimination that goes far beyond this. We don't get ourselves dry cleaned. We tend to take showers when we go to the gym; when we play sports," Frank said.
CBS Airs Fake George W. Bush Cover Mocking 'Decision Points'
When CBS News aired a special on book covers this past Sunday, not many took notice. That is until George W. Bush's new book "Decision Points" popped up on the screen. That's because the cover the network showed was not only the wrong one, but it was also mocking the former president.
Yes, you're reading that right. CBS aired a Bush book cover that says, "Desision Points: How I Managed to Go Eight Years without Making One Good Decision." CBS has since backpedaled, saying it was an unintentional mistake:
"Good catch: it's a mistake no one could see because you'd have to freeze the frame to notice it. Another cautionary tale about the risks of the internet age – clearly, we have to be more careful when downloading material."
According to Newsday, a production assistant made the mistake because of deadline pressure and pulled the image off the internet. The picture seems to have originated on the satirical website "Drudge Retort," although some outlets have confused it as originating from the the actual website Drudge Report.
CBS has since removed the video showing the gaffe.

No bias there….. if FOX did this on an Obama book cover, Olbermann and crew would be all over it and complaining to the FCC, but since it's the guy they love to hate, not a peep will be heard, or if it is, they'll be congratulating CBS. Pathetic.

Poll: Americans Believe in Country's 'Exceptionalism' but Does Obama?
By and large, Americans agree that the United States is a nation with distinct character, anchored in a unique history and its constitutional republicanism. But a recent Gallup poll suggests a number of them doubt President Barack Obama feels the same way.
According to Gallup, at least 73 percent of Americans believe in "U.S. exceptionalism," including a 91 percent of Republicans. But, at the same time, three-quarters of those who believe the U.S. is exceptional say they worry America's status in the world is far from secure and believe the U.S. is at risk of losing its unique character.
