So now the newest right-wing freakout is over Van Jones and all presidential "czars". Of course, Van Jones was right: Republicans are "a-holes".

But that aside, behold our country's useless press and Republican national party:

Here is Politico's "list of Obama czars", half of which were actually approved by the Senate. But Politico decides to leave that little tidbit out of the story.

And here is an example of GOP freakout over Obama czars.

And here is the reality of the Constitution-busting powers Bush gave to his czars WITHOUT approval from Congress.

And one more goody from Politico: Obama had WAAAAY more czars than Bush.

In actually, czars NOT confirmed by the Senate by Obama is 20, compared to 24 by Bush.

Idiots and sloppy, sloppy reporting.

So I was wondering what is really behind the right-wing freak-out over Obama speaking to kids about staying in school.

One interesting tidbit is that their conservative hero & savior, Saint Ronald Reagan, did the exact same thing. And Reagan's speech WAS political. In typical Karl Rove fashion, the right wing nuttery just assumes that a Democratic president will do the same thing.

Now, just as is the case for the healthcare debacle and "death panels", much of the fault of this bubbling up into a national stories lies at the feet of our MSM, subservient to the Right Wing.

It doesn't take very much research to realize that the GOP & conservatives have jumped the shark here. Yet it is treated like a straight news story RIGHT NOW on Politico.com, Yahoo! News & Google News.

This is shameful.

It makes the Republicans seem like they are tying to shield their children from a black man with power that they happen to hate.

So keep your kids from school that day. I would like to now request that my kids do not every have to site anywhere near yours in school, lest they dare pick-up any of your crazy germs ...
