Poll: 6 in 10 Americans don’t like the lying, two faced, dirtbag John Edwards…
Shockah! Americans do not like the two-faced rat frakker who ran for President and drew votes from Hillary to help TOTUS win while knowing he had impregnated his mistress while cheating on his cancer stricken wife.
Dirtbag, don’t go away mad, just go away. Go away John Edwards. Far away. Far, far away.
(…)it’s worse for former Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards. The poll shows for the first time that more Americans view the North Carolina senator negatively rather than positively.Nearly six in 10, 59%, have an unfavorable view of Edwards while 21% have a favorable one—a 27-point drop in his favorability since Gallup’s last poll on the question in January 2008.
Revelations of an extramarital affair and lingering questions over his paternity of a child born to the woman have significantly damaged Edwards’s image with the American public, resulting in the steepest drop ever reported in consecutive favorability measurements of a prominent figure by Gallup.

Update: Enzi, Grassley say no deal from GOP Cmte members before recess; Progressive Caucus revolts against Dem leadership on deal Waxman cut with Blue Dogs; Reid blames the media for the August deadline, and Nancy ratchets up class warfare again…
Update 4: the ‘blame the media’ is (un)Official Policy says I. Gibby used it today at the presser and tried to make it a joke. Reid AND Gibby make it clear the media is the fall guy for the latest failure in TOTUS Town…
Update 3: No agreement on health care from GOP Cmte Members per Grassley, Enzi. In other news the Dems are really losin it, Harry Reid is BLAMING THE MEDIA now !! Yes! He says the MEDIA created the August deadline. Guess he missed TOTUS and Gibby laying out August every other hour…
Reid said reporters created a fictitious deadline of a successful vote by the August recess, and downplayed the fact that the chamber won’t meet that mark.
“That is a deadline that you created,” Reid told a group of about 75 reporters. “It’s not like we don’t have a product. Significant progress has been made … The mere fact that this wasn’t done by last Friday or by five o’clock doesn’t mean we’re not going to get a quality product.”
And MiM has speculated here often that the reason TOTUS wanted it done BEFORE August is b/c the WH has been holding back the updated economic projections, (usually released mid July) showing the projected deficit. Obviously he wanted the healthcare deficit adding budget busting plan pushed through BEFORE anyone got a good look at what the deficit will be BEFORE they add on this mondo spending…yep.
Pelosi is raving against the EEEEEvil Insurance Companies now, looking to gin up that good ole’ standby, Class Warfare. It worked so well with Wall St and the EEEEEvil bankers and AIG (at least until Dodd got hoisted by his own petard having approved those bonuses himself, frakker). AP at HA has the details on Nancy’s ravings….
And in other fun for Nancy and Harry, the Progressive Caucus within the Dem majority is now in open revolt against the leadership for the deal Waxman cut with the Blue Dogs...the CBC has been throwing down the race card left and right, noting that the Energy Cmte Blue Dogs are all white men, and claiming the Blue Dogs are betraying the 20-40% of their constituents who are black. Seriously. Well, Nancy and Harry let the race card fly left and right against Hill in our primaries, so like I say live by the race card, die by the race card..karma baby..
…At one point, Carolyn Kilpatrick (D-Mich.), a former Congressional Black Caucus chairwoman, expressed outrage that conservatives would insist on significant cuts and a weakening of the public option, arguing that many of the Blue Dogs were letting down their black constituents, who make up 25 percent to 40 percent of their voters, in some instances….
…The intraparty dispute had racial overtones. One African-American Democrat, Representative Hank Johnson of Georgia, pointed out that the seven Blue Dog Democrats holding up the health care bill in the Energy and Commerce Committee were “a nondiverse group” of white men….
Nancy tried to push back on this conflict today:
…As to claims that Democratic leadership sold out progressive, African-Americans and Hispanic reps by negotiating a side deal, she responded: “Might I remind you that the progressives are represented on committees of jurisdiction in a very strong manner. Might I remind you that the progressives are chairmen of those committees — progressives have been well represented.”…
I hope everyone tries to get out and attend the AUGUST 22ND RECESS RALLY with the Tea Party Patriots!!!
Update 2: MM has linkys for Recess Rally August 22nd...

MM has a list of numbers to reach the GOP 8 who voted Aye
Update 2: Mitchell D-AZ voted no I am glad to say. Roll Call of the vote here. Bishop of NY, of the videos with outraged constituents at his town hall this week, voted Yes. And cancelled his planned townhalls BTW..chicken. Bock Bock Bwack..
Update: MM via HA the GOP who voted Aye on this SmootHawley Redux of an economy killer as we are in a long bottom of a recession, utterly indefensible to vote for this thing in this economy:
Update: Inhofe predicts cap and trade will die in the Senate, which is probably true. I wonder if that made the bitter pill easier to swallow for those eight Republicans.
Update: The boss has the names:
Bono Mack
Castle
Kirk
Lance
LoBiondo
McHugh
Reichert
Smith (NJ)
The morons cheered when they got the vote, Mike Spence was talking with Levin when the board hit the number…
TOTUS said in ABCinformercial that Americans are choosing between the Devil they know and the Devil they dont know on health care.. I think this vote just gave us a clear idea of who the devilish Congress Critters are who need to be voted out at the earliest opportunity…
It is DOA in the Senate, and as Americans see what these “moderate” Dems and 7(?)GOP voted for. Just the imposition of the California building codes o the entire nation is a death blow to construction jobs. And the bill also contains a provision that ANY HOME being sold or resold must pass an “energy efficiency inspection” old windows wont cut it, also prohibits repairing old appliances that dont meet the new code…
Well I predict an awesome tide of pixxed off American voters in 2010 who will remember what these yahoos just trie to do, kill our economy and the American standard of living.
219-212, 8 GOPs voted Yes Per Levin
Here is John Boehner, Minority Leader, best I’ve ever seen him:
