Newsflash! The President is black, and won pretty handily. And political correctness aside, has anyone stopped to consider that black people may be *gasp* different than white people? Maybe black people don't want to visit a national park. Maybe white people generally like uppity activities like that. It's okay to speak in generalities when they are on point.

-Cash for Clunkers: The debacle continues. Even Rep. Joe Sestak isn't happy.
Even liberal socialized healthcare pusher Rep. Joe Sestak realizes Cash for Clunkers is a stupid bureaucratic nightmare, and that is exactly what it has become.
The federal government has only reimbursed auto dealers for 2 percent of the claims they've submitted through the popular "cash for clunkers" program, a Pennsylvania congressman said, calling on the Obama administration to help speed up the process.
Rep. Joe Sestak, D-Pa., called for "immediate action" to address the problem in a statement Sunday, after writing a letter to President Obama Saturday expressing his concerns.
In the letter, Sestak said only 2 percent of claims have been paid and that four of every five applications have been "rejected for minor oversight."
In recent days, auto dealers across the country have been complaining that the reimbursement payments are slow to process. And they said some of their applications were being rejected because of apparent procedural issues. The statistics Sestak cited suggest those complaints are not based on isolated incidents.
-Pay a tree for its sacrifice of absorbing your nasty carbon footprint
Designer Nitipak Samsen has designed the Automated Tree-Rental for Emission Encaging Machine (ATREEM), which essentially allows you to purchase carbon credits from a tree. The gadget measures the growth of a tree, translating into how much carbon dioxide the tree has absorbed. The gadget is designed to highlight just how long it takes for our carbon dioxide emissions to be reabsorbed.
The device is more about awareness than being a practical method for charging people for their carbon dioxide emissions. However, the gadget is capable of charging credit cards using its swipe-card interface.

-Video: Rep. Eric Massa: “I will vote adamantly against the interests of my district”
Some refreshing honesty from a Democrat. Pelosi and Obama should take notes.
