Commentators and politicians of both parties keep on referring to a "payroll tax cut". This is extremely deceptive. Finally someone is telling the truth. Rush is right. It amazes me that seniors are not marching on Washington to stop the attack on Social Security and Medicare. Where is the AARP on this?

Newt Gingrich - Breaking Eggs
Here we go again. Now that Herman Cain has pulled out of the Republican nomination race, Newt Gingrich is coming under attack. Senator Tom Coburn is in the news now with one of the first salvos.
Coburn told Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace: "I'm not inclined to be a supporter of Newt Gingrich's having served under him for four years and experienced personally his leadership...I found it lacking often times." He went on: "There's all types of leaders. Leaders that instill confidence. Leaders that are somewhat abrupt and brisk. Leaders that have one standard for the people they are leading and a different standard for themselves. I just found that his leadership lacking."

Translated: "Newt is too mean". Chris Wallace summed up my feelings when interviewed later on Sunday Fox and Friends where he defended the former Speaker of the House: "Sometimes you have to break some eggs to make an omelet".
We've had enough of "weak-kneed" leaders. If we have any chance at all of turning the country around we need a leader who can lead.
