(Too bad that we aren't seeing this kind of thing come from the Left.)

"Let's face it: this has been the toughest year and a half since any year and a half since the 1930s." Oh really, Mr. Obama? Really???

[Really, now? Worse than the period surrounding December 7, 1941 and September 11, 2001? Worse than what Gerald Ford faced after the resignation of Richard Nixon and Watergate, which constituted the worse constitutional scandal in our history and tore the country apart? Worse than what Ronald Reagan faced after Jimmy Carter (when interest rates were 22 percent, inflation was more than 13 percent, and Reagan faced something entirely new under the sun, "stagflation")? Worse than 1968, when Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr. were assassinated and there was rioting in our streets? Worse than what LBJ faced during Vietnam -- a war which eventually claimed more than 58,000 lives? Worse than what John Kennedy faced in the Bay of Pigs and in the Cuban Missile Crisis, when we and the Soviet Union edged up to the brink of nuclear war? Worse than what Franklin Roosevelt faced on the eve of the Normandy invasion? Worse than what Bush faced in Iraq in 2006, when that nation was on the edge of civil war, or when the financial system collapsed in the last months of his presidency? Worse than what Truman faced in defeating imperial Japan, in reconstructing post-war Europe, and in responding to North Korea's invasion of South Korea? ]

"Thin Skinned" is putting it mildly.

And Now, For a Hint of Good (Feminist) News: Meg to Replace Ah-nold?

""A person who is knowledgeable about Whitman's political aspirations told The Associated Press that the 52-year-old Silicon Valley leader is planning to run for governor. The person, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak about her future on the record, said Whitman's resignations are "a strong indication" that she wants to clear any commitments that might interfere with a run for political office.

She will make the announcement official in four to six weeks, he said.

Whitman is one of three Republicans who are considered front-runners in the 2010 California gubernatorial campaign.""
