Ok... I live in Washington State now... but today was the day our Primary ballots needed to be turned in.

I came home and the phone was blinking that there were messages. I put it on speakerphone while bringing in groceries with the kids.

There was a message that sounded like a very distraught 5 year old boy. I clicked back to hear the message again thinking it was one of my kids' friends calling.

NOOOO. It was Sarah Palin.

"They've taken your jobs from the orchards and the fields. The Washington farmer is going out of business because the aliens are stealing work that belongs to you.  Take back your America, Washington and support your farmers and support T party activist, Grant Didier."

I may have corrected the grammar a bit. I swear I heard her say "they've tooken your jobs."

Didier got crushed tonight.

Fox News has always claimed to be fair and balanced, but that's a tough position to take when you're funding Republican campaigns.

News Corp. -- the parent company of Fox News -- just donated $1 million to the Republican Governors Association, an official organization campaigning against Democrats all over the country this fall.

It's one thing to echo Republican talking points and hire Sarah Palin for political "analysis." It's another thing to cut those Republicans a seven-figure check to fund their attack ads and robo-calls.

The only way we'll be able to stand up to News Corp. is if we all chip in and stand together -- to put hard-hitting ads online and on TV, train the very best volunteers, and organize in every city of every state. But all this costs money, and we need you to help.

Please donate $5 or more today to help Organizing for America's work across the country and fight back against Fox News-funded Republicans

From protecting all we've achieved together to keeping America moving in the right direction, we are well aware of the stakes in this election.

So is Fox.

Their $1 million check will go to support the campaigns of candidates who fought the President's agenda. This is money that will help candidates who support the repeal of historic health insurance reform.

And these funds will underwrite politicians who hammered President Obama over the Recovery Act and then happily attended ribbon-cuttings for local projects funded by it.

The sheer size of this contribution to a partisan political organization is unbelievable.

But what they can do with that cash is nothing compared to what this movement has been able to achieve together. We have always invested in real, grassroots, on-the-ground organizing -- and that's where our focus will remain. Because we've seen it work time and again.

Together, we've defeated those who put profits over people, talking points over the truth, and corporate cash over anything else.

And we'll do it again with your help.

Please donate $5 or more today:

Thanks,

Mitch

"Fair and Balanced", My ass!

Even if the GOTP (Grand Ol Teabaggin Party) were to regain power they wouldn't spend any time trying to help the little people, or even create jobs. They'd spend their time trying to figure out how to repeal the Health Care reform law, and how to stop homosexuals from marrying, and having the same rights as a straight Christian couple.

A big part of the good was stoping any further GOP damage.  Bush left us holding the bag, remember? Elephants never forget.

Hey, I am not saying shrub was good, I just wanna know what Obama has done that is so much better. At best we stayed neutral with poor leadership at the top (IMO)
