President

This is shocking to me. This is early spending , deficit spending. There is much more to come . What if there is a big natural disaster or terrorrist attack? There is no money for these. http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D966D55O0&show_article=1
Much of this looks like pork , which Obama now defends.

This is a neat video with historic pics and good advice. I don't know if it belongs on main page or not

If I'm nothing, I'm a shameless self-promoter.

Having said that, see me and former radio host, Kaiser King, provide our take on today's inauguration on Fox Toledo News at 10:00. My segment actually airs after 10:30.

Fred, I hope you've not registered "Blatant Media Post" as a registered trademark. I've already been successfully sued by Clear Channel once. I'd hate to go through it again.

Whether or not you agree with the president, you should take advantage of the opportunity to give ideas and feedback.

You just gotta love it...... Drudge Report is linking to a pMSNBC.com story that New Mexico governor Bill Richardson is withdrawing as Commerce Secretary nominee. Looks like he's under investigation for granting state government contracts in exchange for campaign contributions. Doesn't say if the contributions were for his Presidential run or not. Wonder when the investigation started? I'm sure the Obama admin will be just as forthcoming about what they knew and when they knew it as they have in the Blago investigation......

Dear Friend,

We recently launched a new feature on Change.gov called Open for Questions. Thousands of you responded, asking 10,000 questions and voting nearly a million times on questions from others.

Now that we've answered some of the most popular ones from the last round, we are open for questions again. Ask whatever you like, and vote up or down on the other questions to let us know which ones you most want the Transition to answer.

I love the latest piece by Ann Coulter in Human Events. Some highlights:

Sarah Palin wins HUMAN EVENTS’ prestigious “Conservative of the Year” Award for 2008 for her genius at annoying all the right people. The last woman to get liberals this hot under the collar would have been … let's see now … oh, yeah: Me!

Dear Friend,

The latest news about The One via that paragon of even handed news treatment, the NY Times: Obama Pledges Public Works on a Vast Scale

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/12/07/us/politics/07radio.html?bl&ex=1228798...

I received this e-mail today from John Podesta of the Obama transition team. This sounds interesting. You can go and make comments and provide your resources on meetings they have with groups. Whether you like Obama or not, you can provide feedback even if it is not what he wants to hear. I would take them up on this.

MIDLOTHIAN, Va. (AP) - When 10-year-old Austin Smith heard Barack Obama had been elected president, he had one question: Does this mean I won't get a new gun for Christmas?

That brought his mother, the camouflage-clad Rachel Smith, to Bob Moates Sports Shop on Thursday, where she was picking out that special 20-gauge shotgun — one of at least five weapons she plans to buy before Obama takes office in January.

Barack Obama swept to victory as the nation's first black president Tuesday night in an electoral college landslide that overcame racial barriers as old as America itself. "Change has come," he told a huge throng of cheering supporters.

Toledo Police prepare for possible "civil unrest" tomorrow and Wednesday.

I drove by the polling location this afternoon, and the line was out the door and down the street. It is good to see that so many people are voting in this historic election.

In addition...we are in November, and the weather is great! Tomorrow hopefully the weather will be just as nice, so that should not be a factor in keeping people from getting out to vote.

I can only imagine how long the lines will be on tomorrow.

Here is the photo of Joe Biden's event at Marion Harding High School yesterday. No one wants to see Joe. Where is this momentum?

Huh? I guess the One can now create millions of jobs out of the thin air according to this lit piece that was dropped off at my door. It was not paid by the Obama campaign, but come on, Obama cannot create these jobs. If you are spreading the wealth, there won't be anyone to create these jobs.

Joe the Plumber pursued for record deal

Move over, Sanjaya, and tell William Hung the news: Joe the Plumber is being pursued for a major record deal and could come out with a country album as early as Inauguration Day.

Here is the message that Sarah Palin left on my answering machine. Of course I want to believe she called me personally, but I know better. You can tell it is crunch time and that Ohio is in play. I do like how Sarah's message does not sound like she is reading it, but that she is personally making the calls.

The question of when "Joe the Plumber’’ would hit the road for John McCain has finally been answered — Tuesday.

The "Joe the Plumber" Tour, featuring Samuel "Joe the Plumber" Wurzelbacher," is expected to make its first stop in Columbus Tuesday morning and then head west toward Dayton and then south to Cincinnati.
