Of all the GOP pronouncements regarding President Obama's recent recess appointments, this takes the cake:
"It’s astounding to me that the president is claiming these are recess appointments and within his authority, when Congress was not in fact in recess. These appointments are an affront to the Constitution. No matter how you look at this, it doesn’t pass the smell test. I hope the House considers my resolution as soon as we return to Washington so we can send a message to President Obama." EMPHASIS OURS
-- U.S. Representative Diane Black (R-TN) expressing the GOP argument that they aren't in recess and intend to pushback against the President... as soon as they get back from recess.

Rank Hubris - Sarah Palin Edition
Jan 4th, 2012
"He is a businessman. He understands that government’s overreach just quashes the ability for him and others to create jobs for the rest of us who so desire to make it on our own and not to look to government to make it for us." EMPHASIS OURS
Sarah Palin, 'ordinary citizen,' defending the Donald from critics of his threat to run as a third party candidate.
Even for her, this is rich.

Rank Hubris

Dick Cheney wants Obama to apologize for speaking plain truths a few years ago regarding 9/11 and the corruption of our values.
You read that right.
It's just the latest act in an ongoing campaign to outlast the march of justice.
One former aide to Secretary of State Colin Powell and fierce Cheney critic, Lawrence Wilkerson, summed it up not long ago:
"He’s developed an angst and almost a protective cover, and now he fears being tried as a war criminal."

Really. It wasn't. Here's an easy to read picture thingy. That's Two Hundred and Seventy Five totally, completely, altogether non-controversial votes to increase the debt limit under the Bush 2 regime.
