From the Pork Barrel: Newt Moon Rising
* Newt Gingrich promises a U.S. moon base by the end of his second term. Can't decide the funniest part of that sentence.
* Florida Republicans seem to be having trouble deciding between the lesser of two lessers.
* Nancy Pelosi's office says Nancy Pelosi is full of shit. Good! We're all in agreement.
* Barack Obama's SOTU address was written at an 8th grade reading level and appealed to 91 percent of viewers. That right there says everything you need to know about America.
* A lot of people think that Tennessee Tea Party demands to ban truths concerning slavery from school history text books is an overt attempt to whitewash the lives of the Founding Fathers. I disagree. I think they're just trying to get rid of all mention of black people.
* A new study disproves the common belief that people get more conservative as they age. On the contrary, I just think society gets more liberal as people get smarter.

Bill O'Reilly: Jon Stewart Going to Hell, Has Valid Points
From The CC Insider…
I don't know about you, but when I see Bill O'Reilly, I can't help but think of Christmas. And maybe it's just because his face reminds me of ham, but the fact remains, when Christmas needs a bloviating crusader, he is there to rouse the rabble on behalf of the downtrodden nearly-forgotten holiday.
So, after Jon Stewart hilariously declared war on Christmas this week, it came as little surprise when O'Reilly responded on his Fox News show last night…

Tworld News: Week of June 7, 2011
Your world, tweeted. With more funny people. And less meetings.
I suppose anyone who's had the thought, "I should be in charge of America," and actually went through with it is probably a dick in some capacity.
Until we meet a Glenn…

Michele Bachmann on "Founding Father" John Quincy Adams
Oh, Michele Bachmann! You're so close to actually for real maybe winning the GOP nomination! Which would be a dream come true for a huge chunk of America's Republican base (and an even huger chunk of its Democratic base). Don't go screwing it up now by… well, talking.
Look, didn't you learn your lesson by talking yesterday? That clearly didn't work out well. Why are you gonna go and talk all over again. This is not your forte!
I understand the motivation to attempt to blink George Stephanopoulos for asking you these questions. But surely there must be other options.
