I was at an annual family reunion. Had a great time. Just got back. Golf and family. Nothing like it. Nite now.

What? The USA media misrepresent the facts for tabloid journalism? Honestly, now.
...Snowden said (click here) that neither his father Lon Snowden, his father’s lawyer
Bruce Fein, nor Fein's wife and spokeswoman Mattie Fein “represent me
in any way.
“None of them have been or are involved in my current situation, and this will not change in the future,” Snowden said of his father and the Feins. “I ask journalists to understand that they do not possess any special knowledge regarding my situation or future plans, and not to exploit the tragic vacuum of my father's emotional compromise for the sake of tabloid news.”...

"Fly by Wire
BIRMINGHAM, Alabama |
..."The autopilot (click here) was engaged until the last second of recorded data," said Robert Sumwalt, a senior official with the National Transportation Safety Board.
He said information retrieved by investigators from the flight data recorder aboard the United Parcel Service jet showed that its auto throttle also was engaged until moments before the fiery crash.
The Airbus A300 jet was approaching the runway at Birmingham-Shuttlesworth airport before dawn on Wednesday when it clipped the trees in an adjacent residential area and crashed into a steep embankment well short of the runway.
Sumwalt, who spoke at a media briefing near the crash site, had said on Friday that the pilots received a low altitude warning barely seven seconds before the sound of impact. He repeated that in his remarks on Saturday but did not say whether the alert had triggered any attempt by the crew members to disengage the autopilot as part of a last-ditch attempt to abort landing and re-gain altitude....
Christie should have known better. Giuliani was never a friend. He is however the puppet for the Right.

During an appearance on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" on Friday, (click here) former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani took aim at New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, a Republican, for not cutting his Disney World vacation short when the Garden State was hit by a massive snowstorm during the holiday season.
"Chris should've come back," said Giuliani of the recent trip. "I mean, if he asked me my advice, I would've said 'They elected you governor, they've got an emergency, they expect you to be there.'"
He added, "You know, you've got to be there if you're a governor, a mayor, or even a president, if it's important enough."
Giuliani, who is reportedly making moves for a possible 2012 presidential run, is by no means the first to criticize Christie over his decision to remain in the Sunshine State....
One would expect it from Christie's detractors, but, when Giuliani punted for Jeb Bush, that was a different dynamic completely. People just don't pay attention.
Blood brothers. Yessa.

A liberal group (click here) is going after New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) for vacationing in Disney World during a blizzard that paralyzed his state with snow.
The Progressive Change Campaign Committee (PCCC) e-mailed its 19,000 New Jersey members Thursday urging them to start a viral Internet campaign against the nationally popular GOP governor.
"Partying with Mickey Mouse while serious incidents are happening back home isn't leadership. This is just the latest time that Christie has left the state at a critical moment — putting his own interests above New Jersey's," the PCCC co-founder Adam Green wrote.
Christie's opponents are looking to keep the heat up on him even after his office pushed back against criticism over the timing of his family vacation....
Regardless of how regressive Jeb Bush is, the plan has always been him and Rubio in 2016. Get used to it. They want to take the Hispanic vote by storm. Jeb is married to a Hispanic, Columba Bush and she would be the first Latina as First Lady. That for the community would be enough or so they think. Then add the next in line for the power seat is a Hispanic would be the frosting on the cake. These are long laid plans, no one is going to derail them. The only question remaining is how does Governor Scott repeat the performance of 2000 without Jeb in the Governor's seat?
Christie never had a chance and now he'll be in the company of a Columbian with mob connections. I wish him a lot of luck, he should have remembered who his friends really are and it's ain't the Koch brothers.
Last night, O'Reilly was off and that woman was hosting. They were running into the ground big time.
