Washington Post – Scott Butterworth, Garance Franke-Ruta –
Former Rep. Eric Massa (DN.Y.) said Tuesday evening that he groped a congressional staffer while he was in office, but he denied that it was a sexual incident.
I watched Him on Fox .. Glen Beck’s show and he really seemed to be covering up .. almost like he was afraid to tell all. Like he was holding back to protect himself.
We need to keep an eye on him .. he acts as though he is paranoid?

Washington (CNN) — A nearly $140 billion bill to extend unemployment benefits and a host of expiring tax cuts cleared a procedural hurdle Tuesday … Sen. Mitch McConnell says the measure would spend more than Democrats’ health care overhaul would save.
How long do they expect we can pay people to sit around waiting for a job to come seek them out?
Welfare is a different program, we need to stop covering up the welfare by calling it unemployment.
People need to start their own businesses, accept lower type jobs to re-enter the workforce .. stop robbing their neighbors and grandchildren in the name of “unemployment”. No more entitlements .. Please!

Gay marriage officially became legal in Washington, DC on Tuesday. Many same-sex couples embraced the opportunity to get married. Now some opponents want to put gay marriage on the ballot through the District’s initiative process.
Do gay folks think all this prancing around really changes the basic view of their activities for the better?
Don’t they know people are repulsed, agitated and eventually that will lead to a resentment that could be very dangerous? God save the republic!

Out in Oregon it’s getting really odd … See below ..

Concerns about an Oregon Department of Transportation employee who purchased several guns after being placed on leave prompted law enforcement across Southern Oregon to step in. Negotiators and a SWAT team from Medford police safely took a man — whose name wasn’t released — into protective custody Monday morning, Medford police said in a news release.
He was taken to Rogue Valley Medical Center for a mental-health evaluation.
The man recently had been placed on administrative leave from his job and was “very disgruntled,” the news release said.
ODOT Communications Director Patrick Cooney said there were administrative, personnel matters involved that limited what the department could discuss.
The state agency, however, had reported concerns about the man to law enforcement agencies, who started monitoring him, officials said.
“We had concerning information regarding a personnel issue and were watching the subject,” Jackson County Sheriff Mike Winters said.
In two days, the man bought a Heckler & Koch .45-caliber universal self-loading handgun, a Walther .380-caliber handgun and an AK-47 assault rifle, Medford police Lt. Bob Hansen said. All of those firearms were purchased legally, with required record checks by the Oregon State Police.
Authorities were “extremely concerned” that the man may have been planning to retaliate against his employers, the news release said.
Are they crazy .. Arresting a guy for obeying the law? Because he “Might” be contemplating a crime?
Wow! and this is the America “Land of the Free”?
Here they come .. even George Orwell didn’t go this far ..
