Powerline notes the difference between Obama's actions and what he's saying about DC vs. Heller

Question: Has anyone ever seen Obama and Two Face at the same time?

Gaateway Pundit notes the airbrushing of another Obama advisor.

I'm getting the urge to write a parody based upon Queen's "Another One Bites the Dust" (with a nod to Weird Al's parody "Another One Rides the Bus"). Call it "Another One Under the Bus"

Queen's original

The Weird Al parody

Original Lyrics

Obama walks warily down the street,

With the brim pulled way down low
Aint no sound but the sound of his feet,
Campaign Bus ready to go
Are you ready, are you ready for this
Are you hanging on the edge of your seat
Under the bus his buddies go
To the fist bump beat

Another one under the bus
Another one under the bus
And another one gone, and another one gone
Another one under the bus
Hey, Im gonna get you too
Another one under the bus

How do you think we're going to get along,
Without Tony now that he's gone
You took him for everything that he gave,
he helped him buy his home

Rev. Wright, are you satisfied?
How long can you stand the heat?
Under the wheels Grandma goes
To the fist bump beat

Chorus
Another one under the bus
Another one under the bus
Another one under the bus
Another one under the bus
There are plenty of places you can toss a man
And run him to the ground
You can wheel him
You can hit him him
You can toss him out and leave him
At the side of the road
But he's ready, yes he's ready for you
Not standing on his two feet
Down the road his bus does run
Jumping to the fist bump beat

(Gosh - less than ten minutes!)

One final reaction to DC vs. Heller at Q and O, brilliantly dissecting the dissent.

Somehow, we've evolved a system where nine robed lawyers dictate to us what our rights are, and the other 300 million of us are expected to fall, sheeplike, in line.

I'm pretty sure that wasn't the original plan.

I've learned that Holiday weeks are slow anyway, so I'm next week is probably a good time to decompress a little bit. Expect more reprints than usual.
