And now from the real journalists alive and well in the UK, some News.

A couple of comments I read over at Lucianne.com which are so appropriate:

I guess we can’t afford it. ACORN is supposed to get $8B.

Now THIS is a subject Jimmy Carter should be well familiar with.

Barack Obama surrenders to Russia on Missile Defence – Telegraph Blogs

By Nile Gardiner World Last updated: September 17th, 2009

I blogged a couple of weeks ago that the Obama administration was about to abandon its plans for Third Site missile defence installations in Poland and the Czech Republic. I wrote then that “if enacted, this would represent a huge turnaround in American strategic thinking on a global missile defence system, and a massive betrayal of two key US allies in eastern and central Europe. Such a move would significantly weaken America’s ability to combat the growing threat posed by Iran’s ballistic missile program, and would hand a major propaganda victory to the Russians.”

It now looks as though the president has surrendered to Russian demands to kill off Third Site. Michael Goldfarb at The Weekly Standard is reporting that:

Obama surrenders, Russia, US Security

And you thought all we had to be thankful for was Monday Night Football! Man-oh-man – what wonderful news for our Republic.

Of course, there needs to be an amendment to the bill to tie the ban to any future organization that has any ACORN executive associated with it. Hey, wonder if that would include any in the current administration?

WASHINGTON AP – The Senate voted Monday to block the Housing and Urban Development Department from giving grants to ACORN, a community organization under fire in several voter-registration fraud cases.

The 83-7 vote would deny housing and community grant funding to ACORN, which stands for the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now.

via Senate votes to deny funds to ACORN.

Getting going this morning, I find this wonderful story from across the pond pointing out the obvious. Well, the obvious to all but our 4th estate, the US Media (aka: MSM).

Can someone, anyone, please tell me why this isn’t a much bigger story in our daily news feed? Please!?!
