That guy from The Office is just an actor.louis vuitton outlet online Pee Wee Herman is long gone. I can’t think of any.

From the Associated Press.louis vuitton outlet online I double checked the date: October 16, 2009: NEW ORLEANS ?? A white Louisiana justice of the peace said he refused to issue a marriage license to an interracial couple out of concern for any children the couple might have. Keith Bardwell, justice of the peace in Tangipahoa Parish, says it is his experience that most interracial marriages do not last long. “I’m not a racist. I just don’t believe in mixing the races that way,” Bardwell told the Associated Press on Thursday.fake gucci shoes “I have piles and piles of black friends. They come to my home, I marry them, they use my bathroom. I treat them just like everyone else.” Bardwell said he asks everyone who calls about marriage if they are a mixed race couple.fake chanel shoes If they are, he does not marry them, he said. Bardwell said he has discussed the topic with blacks and whites, along with witnessing some interracial marriages. He came to the conclusion that most of black society does not readily accept offspring of such relationships, and neither does white society, he said. The ACLU has asked for a state investigation of Bardwell.replica louis vuitton One couple–he black, she white–whom? Bardwell recently told would not get a marriage license said they plan to bring the matter to the U.S. Justice Department.At the end of the story, Bardwell adds: “I’ve been a justice of the peace for 34 years and I don’t think I’ve mistreated anybody,” Bardwell said.handbags louis vuitton “I’ve made some mistakes, but you have too. I didn’t tell this couple they couldn’t get married. I just told them I wouldn’t do it.” UPDATE: From commenter Paul-No: “He’s right to be concerned about the children.cheap gucci belts Heck they might even grow up to be President.” ANOTHER UPDATE: On the Air Force One today, Deputy Press Secretary Bill Burton was asked about the report: “I’ve seen the story and I’ve looked into this a little bit. And I found that actually the children of biracial couples can do pretty good.? So in terms of anything else I just think it’s something that they’re dealing with locally.chanel handbags for sale

By now, you know the story of the PricewaterhouseCoopers?? report that came out this week.gucci outlet online It was commissioned by the health insurance industry to show how private rates might rise under health reform. It used narrow, worst-case scenario assumptions, and ignored other parts of the reform effort that would lower costs. It was widely condemned by Democrats in Congress and at the White House, and prompted Republican complaints of crippling costs hidden in the current legislation. In public, it was a typical Washington squabble: Public attack, counter-attack, recrimination, move on.louis vuitton shoes replica Much less attention has been paid to just how personal the confrontation was for some major health reform players behind the scenes. For this week??s TIME magazine (subscribe here; get link here) Jay Newton-Small and I spoke with a number of people, at the White House, in the Senate and in the insurance lobby, and found a remarkable level of mistrust between people who were meeting regularly as recently as last week. Most alarmingly, they disagree over basic facts. On Oct.fake ugg boots 6, five days before the report came out, a senior Finance Committee aide and Nancy-Ann DeParle, who runs the reform effort at the White House, called Karen Ignagni, the top lobbyist for America??s Health Insurance Plans. They both say that they asked Ignagni the rumors that the industry would release a report slamming the Senate Finance Committee bill were true. ??We asked her, ??Are you about to put out a report??? DeParle remembers. ??She said, ??No, We are miles away from putting out a report.fake louis vuitton???? Ignagni says that is simply not true. ??I know precisely what I said,?? said Ignagni, who runs America??s Health Insurance Plans. ??I wanted to make sure that they knew that there were two studies coming out next week.?? But the disagreements do not stop there.chanel handbags for sale Both DeParle and the Senate aide say that on the same call Ignagni made a point of mentioning the issue of executive compensation. There was an amendment, sponsored by Arkansas Sen. Blanche Lincoln, that would increase taxes on high-paid health insurance industry executives by $600 million over the next ten years. ??I believe I said, ??The Lincoln Amendment? You mean the Lincoln Amendment,’ ?? DeParle remembers of her phone call with Ignagni.loui vuitton ??She said, ??Well there is that, but there is also this thing that Henry Waxman did.?? ?? DeParle said she later decided that Ignagni had been referring to an investigation into health insurance executive compensation that Rep. Henry Waxman, D-Calif., had launched.chanel outlet DeParle??s memory of the call was corroborated by the Senate aide who was on the line. Ignagni again says that she never said anything of the sort. ??I??m very sure about having no discussions about executive compensation,?? said Ignagni. ??I??m not saying that they are lying.louis vuitton replica I??m saying that maybe they are mistaken in confusing me with some other person in our industry. But I very clear about what I raised and what I didn??t.?? There was one other element of contention. DeParle said that in their three conversations during the week of Oct.louis vuitton replica 5, Ignagni brought up the issue of her CEOs being unhappy, and of negative Wall Street analyst reviews of the Senate Finance Committee plan, multiple times. ??She said her CEOs were really up in arms. They felt that they had been constructive,” DeParle remembers. “And I told her, ??I think you have been constructive.chanel outlet I think you have worked to try to figure out how to get this done.?? She said that my guys feel like they have been vilified, and this is what we get, and it??s not a good result.?? Ignagni admits to repeatedly raising several issues of concern for the industry, including the many millions of Americans that would remain without insurance under the Senate Finance plan. But she says it was DeParle who raised the issue of Wall Street Analysts, not her.ugg boots outlet ??Nancy Ann asked us to provide external validation of what we were seeing in the market and what the effects of the health reform legislation was and she asked specifically about analyst reports, which I provided,?? said Ignagni. Suffice it to say, the depth of the disagreement over basic facts point to the pool of distrust that has grown between Democrats and the insurance industry in just the last week. It??s one thing to have a public battle over the meaning of reform. It??s another thing when the major players in negotiations lose faith in each others ability to correctly remember basic conversations.fake louis vuitton

The Republicans?? famed discipline is cracking.louis vuitton handbags for sale As Politico??s Lisa Lerer and Manu Raju reported this week, Lindsey Graham??s wheeling and dealing on global warming. And, of course, Olympia Snowe is the lady of the hour, week and month on health care (as much as Nancy Pelosi downplays her importance). How does the GOP prevent defections? Well, with Senator Grassley it was widely rumored that the leadership threatened his ranking status on Judiciary Committee when his time as top Republican on the Finance Committee expires at the end of this cycle. Other Republicans get threats of being primaried ?? as Utah Senator Bob Bennett is now facing for signing on to Oregon Democrat Ron Wyden??s bipartisan health care bill.louis vuitton backpack for sale But there??s really nothing much they can do with Snowe. Rumors swirl that she risks her ranking status on the Commerce Committee ?? but any real moves against her could result in her bolting the party. Maine loves her enough to keep electing her no matter what letter is next to her name: R, D, or I. And we know she??s been approached and courted heavily by Majority Leader Harry Reid.louis vuitton belts So, how does the GOP solve a problem like Olympia? The answer is: they don??t.

If you let your mind wander back many news cycles, all the way to the halcyon days of early last week, the Republican race was a muddle.louis vuitton shoes replica Mitt Romney was scrabbling furiously to fend off Rick Santorum in Michigan. Even if Romney sidestepped disaster, trouble lurked on Super Tuesday. Santorum boasted big leads in arch-conservative Oklahoma, Evangelical Tennessee, and blue-collar Ohio, none of which matched Romney’s strengths. Newt Gingrich would grab his own home state of Georgia, the night’s largest prize.louis vuitton replica And Ron Paul was positioned to siphon delegates in low-turnout caucus states like Alaska and North Dakota. Romney was the pace-setter, and would be even if Super Tuesday broke badly. But his support base, tepid in the best of times, seemed to be attenuating. Party leaders braced for a long slog while warning of the damage it would inflict on the Republican brand.fake ugg boots? A week makes all the difference in the media narrative — and very little in the pecking order. Super Tuesday, a coast-to-coast flurry of democracy with 10 states and 437 delegates at stake, is supposed to be one of the inflection points of the Republican nominating fight. Instead, it is likely to produce a split decision that resurrects the old conventional wisdom by reaffirming Romney, the best-funded and best-organized candidate, as the inevitable nominee once more. (PHOTOS: Political Pictures of the Week, Feb.fake ugg boots 25-March 2) Romney rolls into Super Tuesday on the heels of five conservative victories that have sapped any semblance of momentum Santorum once had. To be sure, Romney will take his lumps Tuesday night. Gingrich remains the solid favorite for the bulk of Georgia’s 76 delegates, Santorum is headed for a win in Oklahoma and possibly Tennessee, while Paul has a shot at grabbing his first statewide win in Alaska or North Dakota. (Neither state has been polled.replica louis vuitton) But Romney is gaining ground across the board. Santorum’s double-digit lead in Ohio has vanished; surveys suggest the bellwether state is a true toss-up, with Romney clinging to margin-of-error leads in three of five polls released on Monday. The former Massachusetts governor has chipped away at Santorum’s advantage in Tennessee as well, edging to within the margin of error. A win in either the Rust Belt bellwether or the Evangelical redoubt would vault Romney over the expectations bar.fake gucci shoes But even if the four Republican rivals divvy up the spoils, Romney is poised to win the night. The arcane delegate-selection process works to his benefit Tuesday, while his rivals will be hamstrung by their past haplessness. With Gingrich and Santorum unable to get on the ballot in Virginia, Romney has a shot at grabbing all of its 46 delegates, 33 of which are winner-take-all by congressional district. Santorum’s feckless organization has also apparently left him ineligible for 18 of Ohio’s 63 bound delegates, including some from his strongholds.louis vuitton neverfull Meanwhile, the strictures governing delegate allocation in Massachusetts and Vermont — New England states where Romney is almost certain to win — are favorable to Romney, while proportional allocation in the big Southern states of Tennessee and Georgia will hold down the winner’s margins. As a result, Romney is nearly certain to pad his delegate lead even if he drops the majority of Super Tuesday states. Political handicapper Nate Silver projects him to capture 224 delegates, 51% of the overall tally, with Gingrich nabbing 20% and Santorum just 17%. (MORE: Among Super Tuesday??s 10 Contests, One Crucial Test) Romney’s hope, of course, is to snag a road win in Tennessee or Ohio, and the triumphant Election Night tableau that comes with it.handbags louis vuitton Either way, the math is on his side.?No, Romney will not lock up the nomination on Super Tuesday. Yes, his rivals will soldier on, clinging to scraps of hope, as a primary marked by internecine warfare continues to batter their favorability numbers. (??We??re winning,?? Santorum optimistically told ABC News.replica chanel shoes ??Whether we end up with the most votes or not, we??re winning.??) Even if Super Tuesday doesn’t deliver Romney the kind of kill shot that would end the race, it will tighten Romney’s grip on the race by taking him that much closer to the 1,144 delegates required to sew up the nomination. Which is the only measure that matters.

Had he been speaking Hebrew in a dramatic TV broadcast back home, parts of Benjamin Netanyahu’s fire-and-brimstone speech on Monday night might have been mistaken for the words of an Israeli Prime Minister about to launch a fateful war.louis vuitton speedy He painted Iran’s nuclear program as an apocalyptic extermination threat redolent of the Nazi Holocaust, stressed Israel’s power and responsibility to prevent a repeat of the greatest trauma in Jewish history and vowed that “as Prime Minister of Israel, I will never let my people live under the shadow of annihilation.” But Netanyahu was speaking in English, to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee’s annual policy conference in Washington ?? a forum whose raison d’棚tre is to leverage Israel’s cause in U.S. domestic politics.louis vuitton handbags for sale His purpose there was clearly to rally his considerable bipartisan support on Capitol Hill and beyond to maintain pressure on the Obama Administration to move closer to Israel’s red lines, timelines and perspective for action to stop Iran’s nuclear program. For now, however, the Administration has resisted his pressure. (PHOTOS: Explosion by New Delhi’s Israeli Embassy) “We??ve waited for diplomacy to work,” he told the assembled Israel partisans at AIPAC, which included three-quarters of members of Congress. “We??ve waited for sanctions to work.louis vuitton replica None of us can afford to wait much longer.” Netanyahu has taken a similar line since assuming office three years ago. The underlying point on Monday was that, once again, he’s had to agree to wait, however reluctantly, for the sanctions and diplomacy strategy of the Obama Administration to change the game. Netanyahu insisted on Israel’s freedom and responsibility to make its own decisions in response to Iran’s nuclear development, telling the AIPAC crowd, “We deeply appreciate the great alliance between our two countries.louis vuitton handbags for sale But when it comes to Israel??s survival, we must always remain the masters of our fate.” President Obama acknowledged Israel’s right to make its own defense decisions in relation to Iran, but there’s no doubt in any quarter that Israel is reluctant to act alone in starting a potentially disastrous war in the Middle East. And at a tactical level at least, Israel has become isolated by the many months of saber rattling in the form of statements, leaks and military exercises designed to signal that it might launch air strikes on Iran. While key Western European countries have joined Washington in imposing unprecedented, crippling sanctions on Iran, none of them supports a military option right now.cheap gucci belts Instead, Israel’s closest Western allies ?? the U.S., France, Britain and Germany ?? have lately been devoting diplomatic energy to restraining the Israelis from starting a war, which is not a position with which the Israelis are entirely comfortable. (MORE: Obama Offers Israel a Path to Avoid an Iran War, but Will Netanyahu Buy Its Terms?) Netanyahu had hoped to bridge that gap while in Washington by moving Obama closer to Israel’s view.fake louis vuitton shoes The response was something of a curveball. Obama vowed publicly that he would not tolerate Iran’s acquiring a nuclear weapon, and would use military force to prevent that event. Israel, however, has insisted that Iran can’t be allowed to have the technological capability to build nuclear weapons ?? a capability that substantially exists already, even in those parts of the Iranian program under IAEA monitoring and certified as remaining within peaceful boundaries. But having vowed that he would strike if Iran became a nuclear-weapon threat, Obama publicly rebuffed what he called “bluster” and “loose talk of war.loui vuitton” He pointed out that the U.S. and Israel agree that Iran has not yet made a decision to build nuclear weapons, and demanded more time for the combination of sanctions and diplomatic efforts to dissuade Iran from doing so. A diplomatic solution, said Obama, was in the best interests of Israel and the U.louis vuitton backpack for saleS. Opinion polls show that only 1 in 5 Israelis supports attacking Iran without U.S. backing, while Israel’s top military and intelligence leaders believe going to war under the present circumstances would be a mistake.louis vuitton outlet online Netanyahu, traditionally a risk-averse leader, has never started a war and would be reluctant to ignore the advice of his military chieftains to launch one involving such deep risk, the gains of which may be limited simply to slowing down a potential threat by a couple of years.?So having staked out and reiterated their freedom of action ?? and Washington’s blessing for them to make their own decisions, even if U.S. officials continue to urge Israel to refrain from military action right now ?? the Israelis are nonetheless more comfortable with Iran’s being tackled by a U.replica chanel shoesS.-led coalition. Netanyahu will rely on his support in Washington to press the Obama Administration to adopt a tougher stance. (MORE: Why Netanyahu??s Visit to Discuss Iran Puts Obama in a Political Minefield) There were the occasionally apocalyptic tones and flashes of demagoguery in his AIPAC speech.louis vuitton speedy For example, he likened those in Washington who now counsel that the consequences of going to war outweigh the threat posed by Iran’s nuclear program to those in the 20th century who stood by passively in the face of the Nazi Holocaust. Despite that, Netanyahu also made clear that he had not yet decided to go to war. According to Israeli reports, the Prime Minister told Obama during their White House meeting earlier in the day that he had not yet decided whether to attack Iran. His purpose in Washington, however, was to press for a tougher line from the U.loui vuittonS. Administration. Even if he believes Iran needs to be bombed in order to prevent a nuclear-weapon threat from emerging there, he’d obviously rather the U.S.loui vuitton did the job with its vastly superior military capabilities. The Israeli Prime Minister doesn’t want to go it alone in starting a war with Iran, even if he threatens that he’ll do so if he deems other options insufficient. Netanyahu says he can’t wait much longer, but for the Administration’s purpose, the key point is that he’s waiting. A careful read of Netanyahu’s speech, in fact, should reassure oil markets rather than spook them into new spikes on a fear of war.chanel handbags for sale (MORE: Is Iran Dangerous ?? or Desperate?) Officials privy to Monday’s meeting at the White House told the New York Times that both leaders had agreed to tamp down the overheated Iran debate in their countries.?But Netanyahu’s tone and demeanor ?? particularly his scathing rebuke of some of the concerns raised by Obama Administration officials over the military option ?? suggest the debate is unlikely to cool down significantly. It is business as usual, then, despite a visit that was billed as a showdown. The U.ugg boots outletS. will continue to press sanctions and diplomacy, while Israel will stand on the sidelines, demonstratively tapping its watch and threatening to scramble the jets. Still, nothing heard publicly from the leaders gathered in Washington this week to discuss Iran suggests that war is any closer than it was last week.

In their speeches to AIPAC today, the Republican presidential candidates made clear that they consider an Iranian nuclear weapon a nightmare that must be stopped at all costs.louis vuitton handbags for sale Yet however potentially dangerous Iran may be, there’s something askew about the emphasis on its nuclear program to the near-exclusion of the many other nuclear threats America faces–threats the GOP candidates have spent virtually no time addressing. Take Pakistan, whose army reportedly moves around its nukes in delivery vans, and where the risk of a radicalized insider transferring nuclear material to terrorists is chillingly plausible. Weapons material isn’t as hard to transport as you’d hope, and a rogue scientist doesn’t face the same questions of deterrence and self-preservation as do regime leaders. (A rogue insider, by the way, seems a greater concern in Iran than the prospect of the regime attacking Israel or the U.gucci handbag for saleS., or handing off a bomb to some group for that task.) Or how about murkier threats, involving no specific state but rather the vast quantities of nuclear material around the world kept in facilities like civilian research reactors, which store highly enriched uranium under weak security? President Obama has devoted serious attention to the complex problem of loose nuclear material, and has tried to start a global conversation about nuclear disarmament. His administration keeps a close watch on Pakistan’s nukes (though with frustrating limits) and has reportedly developed plans for military action should the country’s nuclear arsenal come under imminent threat.fake ugg boots But Republicans just haven’t seemed very interested in these dangers. Over twenty GOP debates I can’t recall hearing a substantive conversation about loose nukes, or the state of our anti-nuclear defenses (radiation detectors at ports; nuclear “fingerprinting” research). Newt Gingrich has even mused about cutting off U.S.louis vuitton replica aid to Pakistan, likely a fast way? to lose what insights we have into their nuclear security. (It’s worth noting that Rick Santorum, and Michele Bachmann of all people, rebuffed that idea in a November debate.) Iran is clearly a special case. It’s threat we can see developing, through the eyes of international inspectors, satellites and espionage.replica chanel shoes Israel is small, close and extremely vulnerable to a potential Iranian attack. But don’t be fooled into thinking that Iran is the only, or even the likeliest, source of a possible nuclear bomb that might be used against America or Israel–even if we’re not getting the honest and serious campaign debate it would take to make that clear.

On Friday, the President added a new line to his regular “fair share” repertoire on tax burdens and wealth distribution.louis vuitton handbags for sale “We do not begrudge wealth in this country. We aspire to financial success,” he said in a Michigan speech on college tuition, as he has countless times before. “But we also understand that we??re not successful just by ourselves. We??re successful because somebody started the University of Michigan.fake gucci shoes We??re successful because somebody made an investment in all the federal research labs that created the Internet. We??re successful because we have an outstanding military. That costs money. We??re successful because somebody built roads and bridges and laid broadband lines.replica gucci shoes And these things didn??t just happen on their own,” he said before returning to his pro-forma lines: “And if we all understand that we??ve got to pay for this stuff, it makes sense for those of us who’ve done best to do our fair share.” That middle part’s new. And it’s an almost exact replica of the living room chat gone viral that launched Elizabeth Warren’s Senate campaign in Massachusetts, right down to the examples of roads and defense: There is nobody in this country who got rich on his own ?? nobody. You built a factory out there? Good for you.ugg boots outlet But I want to be clear. You moved your goods to market on the roads the rest of us paid for. You hired workers the rest of us paid to educate. You were safe in your factory because of police-forces and fire-forces that the rest of us paid for.chanel handbags for sale You didn??t have to worry that marauding bands would come and seize everything at your factory ?? and hire someone to protect against this ?? because of the work the rest of us did. Now look, you built a factory and it turned into something terrific, or a great idea. God bless ?? keep a big hunk of it. But part of the underlying social contract is, you take a hunk of that and pay forward for the next kid who comes along.louis vuitton handbags for sale?? It says something about Warren’s populist knack for framing Democratic priorities that Obama’s cribbing her lines. And though she’s described as a grandmother from Oklahoma by her admirers and a Harvard elitist by her detractors, it’s possible this skill comes neither from her folksy roots nor the cloisters of Cambridge–after all, Obama’s no stranger to a humble upbringing or the Harvard Yard. As David Bernstein writes in the Boston Pheonix, Warren actually found her public voice through a ridiculed guest gig on Dr. Phil’s daytime talk show and by authoring several pop personal finance books.chanel handbags for sale At the time, she says, not all of her colleagues in the hallowed halls of academia were quite so impressed with her new direction. Many looked down their noses at her TV exploits. Some economists (Megan McArdle of the Atlantic, for one) publicly disputed her key arguments. Her name even vanished from the New York Times for five years, last appearing a month before her first Dr.louis vuitton replica Phil appearance, and not showing up again until Congress appointed her to a bank-bailout oversight commission in December 2008, according to an archive search. And you don’t have to be a Harvard fellow to find something mockable in her work from the time, which combines motivational-style cheerleading, tough-love lectures, and checklist-oriented advice. One can imagine the professorial eyes rolling as Warren walks Dr. Phil subjects “Wendy and Matt” through a “financial fire drill,” or promises “Dawn and Trent” that they can be debt-free in two years.replica chanel shoes And few people within the ivied walls produce books with lines like: “Are you ready to start on your path to a lifetime of riches?” Nobody’s laughing now. Update: And yet here Warren displays an almost Romney-esque level of tin-earedness on personal wealth. In an interview on whether investing by members of Congress should be restricted, she dropped this head-spinner: “I realize there are some wealthy individuals ?? I??m not one of them, but some wealthy individuals who have a lot of stock portfolios.” It’s not really clear whether “I’m not one of them” refers to being wealthy or having a lot of stocks, but Warren undoubtedly checks both boxes: her six-figure income put her in the top %1 of earners last year, she owns $3 million+ in investments and lives in a $1-$5 million home.fake uggs So, uh, yeah, she is “one of them.

The American political lexicon is always evolving, and during campaign season, new phrases are as common as retirees in Boca Raton.loui vuitton Here are some of the words that have worked their way into the conversations this week. Self-deportation (n.): the act of voluntarily leaving a country that one has entered illegally, esp. in order to return home and re-enter through legal channels.ugg boots outlet During a recent debate, Mitt Romney suggested this was an answer to illegal immigration problems in the U.S. Newt Gingrich later responded by calling the oft-ridiculed notion an “Obama-level fantasy,” though his own spokesman once said Gingrich’s immigration plan would inspire people to “self-deport.” All-of-the-above (adj.fake louis vuitton): used to describe a policy that includes every available option, esp. when referring to the nation’s energy supply. “This country needs an all-out, all-of-the-above strategy that develops every available source of American energy,”?President Obama said during his State of the Union address this week. Pundits quickly pointed out that this is a well-worn GOP slogan, touted by the likes of Gingrich and Sen.louis vuitton backpack for sale John McCain. Influence-peddling (v.): the use of one’s political status and access to profit from lobbyist-like activities that do not technically qualify as lobbying. Romney, and others, have accused Gingrich of doing this during his engagement as a consultant with Freddie Mac and when supporting Medicare Part D.fake louis vuitton shoes Desperate baloney (n.): the latest metaphorical meat product Gingrich has accused Romney of peddling (see also: baloney, pious). This week, Gingrich characterized Romney’s attacks as nonsense inspired by his loss in South Carolina. (Meanwhile, a New Hampshire congressman who Gingrich had once visited to discuss prescription drug benefits said the Speaker was espousing his own “pious baloney” by saying he wasn’t a lobbyist.cheap gucci belts) (PHOTOS:?Political Pictures of the Week) Prebuttal (n.): a speech given before an opponent’s rather than after, esp. in an attempt to weaken the opponent and his anticipated talking points. Romney delivered such a speech in Florida this week, “responding” to the President’s State of the Union address almost 11 hours before Obama stepped up to the lectern in Washington, D.chanel outletC. Post up (v.): in basketball, establishing a position near the basket, often so one can maneuver a defender into a disadvantageous position and create a scoring opportunity. Romney has said he will “post up well” when describing his chances of defeating Obama (who was on the state championship team during his high school days in Hawaii and was nicknamed “Obomber” for his jump shot).chanel handbags for sale Moneyball approach (n.): a plan that involves reinventing an old strategy by analyzing data in new ways to predict success, named for a method developed by the Oakland Athletics baseball team. This term is being used to describe Ron Paul’s current strategy: focusing on lower-profile races in which delegates are awarded proportionally (and the theoretical cost per delegate is lower), rather than high-profile races like Florida, where campaigning is expensive and all the delegates will likely go to the winner. Food-stamp President (n.fake louis vuitton shoes): a derisive description of Obama popularized by Newt Gingrich. Gingrich has used the epithet to suggest that the President’s “fair share” tax policies will kill jobs (and therefore put everyone on food stamps); to associate Obama with big government; and to suggest that Obama has failed in fixing the economy. Critics have called it racist. The Space Coast (place): the region of eastern Florida associated with space launches; home to the Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.louis vuitton shoes replica The area is frequented by candidates in the run up to the Sunshine State primary and is often the site of NASA-related pandering (see also: Newt’s moon colony), given how important space programs have been to central Florida’s economy.

The emergence of a debate about colonizing the moon might be the goofiest-sounding idea in Republican primaries since Herman Cain proposed an electrified fence along the southern border.louis vuitton outlet online The difference is that returning to the moon is an idea that reasonable people take seriously. Campaigning in Florida this week, Gingrich proposed establishing a colony on the moon by “the end of my second term.” The ridicule came fast and funny (“Did he start with a Death Star and get kind of reigned in?” asked Jon Stewart.) But as the Guardian‘s Alok Jha explains, the idea isn’t totally off the wall: There are good scientific reasons for such a base that could, among other things, measure cosmic rays, hunt for exotic subatomic particles in space and look for asteroids on a collision course with Earth.cheap gucci belts A moon base could also be used as a platform for monitoring the Earth’s oceans and ice caps. It’s worth noting that TIME’s Jeffrey Kluger, who knows more about these issues than I do, is less charitable. But remember: In 2004 George W. Bush also proposed returning to the moon, and using it as a platform for a Mars mission.handbags louis vuitton “We choose to explore space because doing so improves our lives and lifts our national spirit,” Bush declared. Admittedly, this Iraq-era burst of grand ambition caused plenty of head-scratching, and the plans were eventually shelved. The main problem was money: As Jha notes NASA spending peaked at 3.45% of the federal budget in the 1970s.louis vuitton neverfull Today the figure is around 0.5%. Gingrich insists a moon colony can be constructed by unleashing private enterprise. He offered the highly improbably vision of “five or six” space private launches a day.louis vuitton handbags for sale Maybe there are companies that would leap at the opportunity if given the proper grants and incentives (though that sounds almost like socialist industrial policy to me!). Even so, it’s nearly impossible to imagine anyone allowing for actual construction on the moon under private, as opposed to government, auspices. We’ll leave aside the sticky international law questions for now. Maybe the real point here is the fact that Gingrich can only defend his idea as a private venture, even though many of the America’s greatest achievement, like the original space mission, the federal highway system, and the atomic bomb,were the product of grand–and expensive–federal action.louis vuitton handbags for sale Gingrich says his? space program would be “the second great launch of the adventure John F. Kennedy started.” But that adventure was a government one, not a private one. And this reveals a key tension in Gingrich’s platform.replica gucci shoes He wants America to continue doing great things–but his budget plan would leave us with a government that has little ability to support them. Gingrich’s tax plan would slash federal revenues and drive up the deficit by as much as $1 trillion per year, according to one estimate. That will require even bigger cuts. You need to accept the supply-side doctrine, one held by Newt’s top economic advisors, that big tax cuts will pay for themselves to think that America can tackle huge new projects under a Gingrich administration, unless you assume that the still-struggling private sector will suddenly explode with activity.louis vuitton belts Maybe in the next debate, someone can ask him to square his grand aspirations with the realities of his budget vision.

The Administration’s decision to require Catholic charities and universities to provide free birth control through employee health coverage is several weeks old, but the maelstrom of dissent it’s created is widening.fake louis vuitton Republicans, who charge that the measure violates such organizations’ religious freedoms, have allied with Catholic groups in opposition, and in recent days a handful of high-profile Democrats have joined their ranks in calling on the Administration to broaden exemptions from the rule. On Wednesday, Tim Kaine, the former Obama-picked Democratic National Committee chairman who is now running for Senate in Virginia, told a radio interviewer he had “grave concerns.”? “I think the White House made a good decision in including a mandate for contraception coverage in the Affordable Care Act insurance policy,” he said, “but I think they made a bad decision in not allowing a broad enough religious- employer exemption.” Pennsylvania Senator Bob Casey and Connecticut Representative John Larson, the fourth-ranking Democrat in the House, expressed similar criticisms.cheap gucci belts All three are Catholic. (As Amy Sullivan writes at The Atlantic, many of the people lobbying the White House for a broader exemption are longstanding allies.) (MORE:?Obama Administration??s Contraception Ruling Fits with Re-Election Needs) Conservative backlash has been much fiercer. Speaker John Boehner took to the House floor on Wednesday to condemn the ruling and pledged to draft legislation to block it.louis vuitton handbags for sale ??If the President does not reverse the attack on religious freedom,” he said, “then the Congress, acting on behalf of the American people and the Constitution we are sworn to uphold and defend, must.“ In the new issue of TIME, available online to subscribers, National Review editor Rich Lowry crystallizes this case, increasingly prevalent on the right, that Obama’s contraception stance represents an effort to curtail religious freedoms. The President, Lowry writes, will face both political and legal backlash: In Obama’s decision (and yes, he did okay it), we see again an encroachment of secular government, with its web of rules and regulations, on a free, civil society. It is an expression of the unyielding “tutelary power” of the administrative state foretold by Alexis de Tocqueville.louis vuitton handbags for sale Such a state seeks what it imagines to be our happiness, he wrote, “but it wishes to be the only agent and sole arbiter of that happiness.” In America, though, what the state wishes it doesn’t always get. Obama will retreat or lose in the courts. The political toxicity of the rule is not as immediately apparent outside of Washington.louis vuitton neverfull A poll released earlier this week found a majority of Americans, including a majority of Catholics, support a requirement for employers to provide employees with coverage that includes free contraception. And, as Democrats are quick to point out, many Americans are already subject to one. In total, 28 states have rules mandating insurance coverage of birth control. Twenty of those states, however have an exemption for religious employers, many of which include exemptions for Catholic universities and charities.replica louis vuitton Just four have narrow exemptions that, like Obama’s new rule, do not. Even as the Administration looks to those 28 states for ways to allay the concerns of Catholic groups, the chances that it will willingly accede on the larger issue may have been overstated this week after David Axelrod, a senior adviser to the President’s re-election campaign, seemed to hint at a larger reversal on Tuesday.? “We certainly don??t want to abridge anyone??s religious freedoms,” he told MSNBC, “so we??re going to look for a way to move forward that both provides women with the preventative care that they need and respects the prerogatives of religious institutions.” White House press secretary Jay Carney on Wednesday indicated that while the Administration would consider tweaks to the exemption, the fundamental scope of the rule would remain unchanged.louis vuitton handbags for sale “We want to work with all these organizations to implement this policy in a way that is as sensitive to their concerns as possible,?? he told reporters at a press briefing. ??But let??s be clear: We are committed, the President is committed, to ensuring that women have access to contraception without paying any extra costs, no matter where they work.” MORE:?Obama??s Fairness Doctrine MORE:?Is the Obama Administration ??At War?? with Catholics?

This post was updated at 1:25pm It??s been a long slog, but government officials and representatives from major U.louis vuitton handbags for saleS. banks have?come to terms on a settlement that would put an end to federal and state investigations into alleged foreclosure abuses by financial institutions. Details of the settlement were announced this morning, and a website explaining the plan went live today as well. ?President Obama also gave a statement at the White House saying the deal “will begin to turn the page on an era of recklessness that has left so much damage in its wake.gucci outlet online” The five major banks involved in the settlement: Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Citigroup, and Ally Financial will pay roughly $25 billion in penalties and relief to borrowers, states and the federal government. According the terms outlined today, the big banks will pay: $20 billion in direct consumer relief, with $17 billion going to principal reduction, and $3 billion to help underwater borrowers refinance their mortgages at lower rates; $4.25 billion of cash will be distributed to states, with $1.5 billion going out as checks to borrowers who were victims of foreclosure abuses, and $2.fake ugg boots75 distributed to state governments to help with foreclosure prevention efforts; and $750 million will be paid to the federal government to pay for similar efforts. Borrowers who were victims of foreclosure abuses must file claims to receive cash payments, which will range from $1,500 to $2,000 depending on how many claims are filed. Reports indicate that roughly 750,000 homeowners would be eligible to file claims. (MORE: How ??Shadow Inventory?? Is Killing the Housing Market) The deal should create much more certainty for the banks going forward, and the amount of cash the banks are required to?forfeit?is quite small.gucci outlet online However, the suit leaves open room for states attorneys general and individuals to bring additional suits related to mortgage securitization, and to bring suits against MERScorp, a company created by large banks to streamline ?the process of transferring mortgage ownership during the securitization process. The deal is also a win for states attorneys general and the administration, who can now point to this settlement, the largest of its kind since the tobacco settlement of the 1990s, as concrete action taken to right the wrongs perpetrated by the mortgage industry leading up to and following the financial crisis.

Why is Mitt Romney having trouble winning over the conservative Republican base? One reason is his lack of political finesse, an air of dorky rich-guy aloofness that reminds some people of John Kerry.loui vuitton More important, however, is his ideological profile. In almost every important way, Romney’s policy platform is more moderate than those of Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum. Gingrich? offers a much more conservative tax plan, along with crowd-pleasing ideas like his plan to sic federal marshals on “radical” liberal judges. Santorum carries a blazing social-conservative torch, championing ideas like a constitutional ban on abortion.louis vuitton backpack for sale Both Gingrich and Santorum talk quite openly about the virtues of bombing Iran. Romney’s temperature runs cooler in all these areas. Not to mention his past record of pro-choice, pro-gay rights positions. As Jon Chait notes today, the GOP establishment is defending Romney but also working hard to push him to the right.louis vuitton neverfull But one reason the establishment is defending Romney is because looks like the most electable candidate. And one reason for that, at least among those who believe presidential elections are won in the center, is because Romney is fairly moderate–especially relative to a party whose core ideas, like cutting entitlements and lower taxes for the wealthy, are not broadly popular. So keep that in mind as we watch hand-wringing about Romney’s struggle to win the Republican nomination. There’s a persuasive case to be made that being only just barely conservative enough to win the party mantle is exactly where you want to be.fake uggs Yes, a nominee needs to worry about enthusiasm and base turnout in the fall. But Romney has the specter of a second Obama term to do that work for him. He’s wise to resist short-term pressure to tack right in a primary race he’s likely to win anyway. Locking down the nomination in February is a lower priority, after all, than winning the White House in November.gucci outlet online

CAPC ta modeerF dna htiaF ,sraeF

“Ultimately, I’m a lobbyist for freedom,” a man in a yarmulke tells a pretty girl in the basement of a cavernous Marriott in northwest Washington.handbags louis vuitton The man could have been attempting to network or to flirt — a seminar on how to date conservatives had just wrapped up down the hall — but either way, the description seemed perfectly pitched to the frequency of CPAC, the annual confab at which conservatives converge on the town they love to hate to hobnob with political celebrities, nurture their contacts and bemoan the ruinous state of the Republic over a drink or four. Everyone is a friend of freedom here. Nobody is a friend to Barack Obama. On these matters, they can all agree.ugg boots outlet And that’s often all they can agree on. CPAC’s thousands of attendees are a reminder of the vast array of parochial interests cohabiting under the conservative tent: business groups and birthers, social conservatives and survivalists, deficit hawks and neocons. The large contingent of college kids tends to lend the event, now in its 39th year, the feel of a bacchanal. This year is a little different.chanel handbags for sale If the conservative movement has sizzled in the age of Obama, the specter of a Mitt Romney Administration leaves much of the crowd here cold. “We’re all divided. We’re not really excited about any of the candidates,” says Brendan Steinauser, the director of federal and state campaigns for FreedomWorks, the D.C.louis vuitton neverfull-based Tea Party organization. Three remaining contenders will arrive tomorrow, when Romney, Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum will all address the throngs. (Ron Paul, the two-time defending champion of the CPAC straw poll, decided to sit the event out.) (MORE: Santorum Stuns Romney with Three-State Sweep, Stealing Momentum in GOP Race) News does break at CPAC — in 2008, Romney used the forum to announce he was suspending his campaign — but little of it trickled out in the opening act of the three-day event.chanel outlet Thursday was reserved for congressional stars (Marco Rubio, Jim DeMint, Rand Paul, Paul Ryan) and the presidential candidates whose dreams have already died. Michele Bachmann told the crowd the process of running for President was “one series of humiliations after another.” Rick Perry said his own campaign “just ran out of time.” And Herman Cain, whose 15 minutes may never end, embraced a fleeting star of the last presidential cycle by announcing his endorsement of Joe the Plumber’s congressional campaign.handbags louis vuitton (Neither Cain nor Perry, Gingrich endorsers both, mentioned the former House Speaker’s name during their addresses.) If the formal speeches were a litany of familiar conservative tropes, the seminars and exhibitions served up CPAC’s strange brew of energetic evangelism, education and self-promotion. In a warren of basement rooms, scores of conservative organizations set up booths to hawk literature, build their e-mail databases or spread the word about new startups. Attendees could shoot virtual trap at an NRA booth, sign up for graduate studies, or buy faded Nixon and Goldwater campaign buttons at a table of vintage paraphernalia.louis vuitton neverfull There were also giveaways galore. Google handed out sunglasses. American Crossroads distributed Twix bars. Those who signed up for an e-mail list were entitled to a “Team Boehner” beer koozie.cheap gucci belts Someone handed out “Tebow for President” decals. “I love Chuck Norris! I just love him!” gushed a girl clutching a card inscribed with the face of the septuagenarian conservative icon. Nearby were ads touting a one-night-only showing of a movie by Kirk Cameron, the Growing Pains star-turned Christian evangelist, and one based on Dinesh D??Souza??s book that argued Obama??s policies should be understood through the prism of his ??Kenyan, anticolonialist?? leanings. At the booth of the American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family and Property ?? an outfit that is based out of Spring Grove, Penn.louis vuitton handbags for sale, claims 200,000 members and screened a film that asked God to ??protect us from the homosexual agenda,?? a man wore what appeared to be red shawl over his shoulder. ??It??s our cape,?? says James Bascom, a spokesman for the group. ??It??s a symbol that captures our admiration for chivalry and knighthood.?? (MORE: Was Tuesday Night Really So Terrible for Mitt Romney?) In another corner, a new website called Procinctu (Latin translation: prepared for battle), which advises Americans to stockpile precious metals, raffled off a free half-ounce silver coin (estimated worth: $20) to anyone willing to sign up for their distribution list.chanel outlet “We’re basically about self-empowerment,” says Travis Englert, Procinctu’s founder, says of the site, which warns customers about topics ranging from the agribusiness giant Monsanto to the ravages of fiat money. “I knew 10,000 people would be here. It’s a good way to get my feet wet,” he says. “Just to get the message across.chanel handbags for sale Because people are pretty dumb.” Some of CPAC’s programming tiptoes along a murky line between earnest ideology and coded fear-mongering. Alongside the seminars on conservative dating — “how to avoid scaring away your own personal Dagney Taggart in the first five minutes,” taught by a professional pickup artist — and the Arab Spring were discussions of nullification and the Obama EPA’s record on green jobs. After a kerfuffle last year, the gay Republican group GOProud is no longer welcome, but a discussion on the problems posed by multiculturalism featured two panelists with ties to white-nationalist movements.fake uggs This is the exception rather than the rule. Much of CPAC’s speeches are de riguer conservative boilerplate, and much of its exhibition hall is given over to the unglamorous business of publicizing one’s political cause, whatever that may be. Take FreedomWorks. In the absence of enthusiasm for any of the remaining presidential candidates, the group has swung its focus to touting congressional candidates and legislative action — such as right-to-work laws — in statehouses across the U.replica louis vuittonS. “For us, it’s about taking back the Senate. It??s about local and state races for now,” Steinhauser says. (MORE: Mitt Romney’s Sweet Spot: Just Conservative Enough) It??s also about dispelling the idea that spreading liberty is a fusty business.gucci outlet online ??There??s this perceived notion that the Tea Party is not young, and it really is,?? says campaigns coordinator David Spielman, one of several FreedomWorks staffers clad in black “This Ain’t Your Grandma’s Tea Party” shirts and encouraging spectators to join them in a makeshift dance routine. ??We??ve got all races. We??ve got all ages. Liberty is a young idea.louis vuitton belts It??s a hip idea.?? Onlookers nodded their heads. After all, at CPAC everyone is a lobbyist for freedom.
