		<description><![CDATA[ Yale University's "Skull and Bones Society," an elite secret club, has all sorts of conspiracy theories that swirl around it. Sen. John Kerry and former President George W. Bush are members, or "Bonesmen," as they're called. President Barack Obama is not a member but Austan Goolsbee , his former top economic adviser, is and he met with a group of Bonesmen last year. What was the meeting about? It's not public information and it doesn't look like we'll be finding out. Goolsbee won't talk about it and neither will the members who attended the meeting. From BuzzFeed : The secret society doesn't release the names of its members, referred to as "Bonesmen," but the Ivy League gossip blog IvyGate regularly has the roster leaked to them. Cross-checking their list with the White House visitor log on March 4 reveals that at least eight members of the 2010-2011 class were present at the Goolsbee meeting. According the White House records, the students met with Goolsbee in room 234 of the Eisenhower Executive Office Building at around 4:00 p.m., proceeded to a tour of the White House, and then returned their I.D. badges by 5:00 p.m. BuzzFeed e-mailed Goolsbee, who left the White House last June and returned to the University of Chicago, to find out. He responded with this parenthetical reference to the society's tradition of requiring that its members walk away from any conversation in which it's invoked. "(sound of people leaving the room)," Goolsbee emailed. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) was seen Monday at the White House (and Tuesday at President Barack Obama 's State of the Union address) with his face all busted up . His spokesperson said it was from breaking his nose while playing in a recent hockey game, but didn't say who Kerry was playing with. The Daily is reporting that it's possible Kerry's faced was clobbered by actor Tom Hanks ! [T]he 2004 Democratic presidential nominee was actually banged up during a celebrity charity game on New Year’s Eve in Sun Valley, Idaho — and one of the stars on the ice was Hanks, who has a mansion in the posh ski resort.

		<description><![CDATA[ Last weekend’s Boston Globe Magazine featured a gargantuan, 3600-word homage to rabid environmentalism in the form of a profile on  350.org  founder Bill McKibben. The piece and President Obama’s disastrously short-sighted decision last Wednesday to reject permitting for Transcanada’s Keystone XL pipeline are both symptomatic of a much larger ailment plaguing liberal politicking in general and the Obama administration in particular: a continual willingness to sacrifice the well-being of the majority for an elite, hypocritical minority. The Keystone project, a 1,700-mile pipeline that would bring crude from Alberta’s oil sands to U.S. refineries on the Gulf Coast, has the potential to create hundreds of thousands of direct and indirect decent-paying  American jobs  and reduce our dependency on the oil of despotic, anti-western nations with questionably sane leaders. But radical environmentalists like McKibben – a second-generation jailed protestor and disciple of Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry – seem either not to know or else don’t care what real poverty looks like. And McKibben is among the leaders of the voting contingent to which our president is pandering, purely for political reasons. The Harvard-educated McKibben, who was among the 1,252 people arrested during protests against the pipeline outside the White House last year, is on a mission to “end the tyranny of oil” and coal. Along with his worship of the false god of climate change, McKibben, like many leftist elitists, is committed to “social justice,” according to the Globe piece. What McGibben and his ilk overlook is that real social justice begins with a job, the dignity of work and the ability to care for and feed one’s own family. McKibben &#038; Company’s quest is anti-jobs, and therefore anti- social justice. According to  analysis  released this month by the Brookings Institution, child poverty has risen 4% in the past five years. That’s an addition of 3 million impoverished kids, most of them added in the time Obama has been in office. The state with the highest rate: Mississippi, in the Gulf Coast – the very region in which many of the Keystone XL’s quarter-million jobs would have been created, and where the Obama administration’s six-month deepwater drilling moratorium cost Americans tens of thousands of jobs. T.V. talk show host – and Obama supporter – Tavis Smiley said recently,  “Many of the ‘new poor’ are the former middle class.” Obama claims to be all-in for domestic energy production and job creation, but when handed a no-brainer like Keystone, he chooses to side with a radical minority. Why? As Michael Brune, the head of the Sierra Club said recently, “It shores up the base, definitely.” On Capitol Hill there has been almost universal silence from congressional Democrats on the matter. What does that say about what agenda really drives the Democratic Party? According to a “top Democratic fundraiser” has said the issues driving party donors are “Keystone and gay marriage.” But Obama and the Democrats may soon grow to regret the Keystone decision. There are about 25 million Americans unemployed or under-employed. If you’re out of work or struggling to get by, a politician focused on killing jobs and promoting gay marriage probably doesn’t sound like one with your best interests at heart. Besides all the jobs we now stand to lose out on thanks to Obama’s decision, we also face a considerable new security challenge in the form of a bolstered China. As Rep. Steve King ofIowa said this week:  “ If we block [the pipeline] that oil will certainly go to China. It will enrich their economy.” Canadian Prime Minster Stephen Harper has no intention of waiting for the United States to reverse this wrongheaded move; his goal is to see Canada at the forefront of the energy game. Harper will travel to Beijing next month, where he will likely take part in talks on selling his country’s vast oil supplies to the Chinese government. And China is serious about quenching its thirst for oil. “Chinese firms aren’t just buying stakes, they’re buying whole operations,” reads a piece this month in Canada’s daily Globe and Mail. “It’s a new phase of China’s step-by-step Canadastrategy. It will change not just the oil patch but Canada’s foreign policy. And a game of international energy politics is afoot in Canada’s West.” When Obama finally turns around for a gander at his fellow Washington backers on this latest political choice, he will see he has precious few. Bob Beauprez is a former Member of Congress and is currently the editor-in-chief of A Line of Sight, an online policy resource. Prior to serving in Congress, Mr. Beauprez was a dairy farmer and community banker. He and his wife Claudia reside in Lafayette, Colorado.

		<description><![CDATA[A new hard-hitting attack ad from the Newt Gingrich campaign titled "The French Connection" paints Republican front-runner Mitt Romney and 2004 Democratic nominee John Kerry with the same "Massachusetts moderate" brush. Calling Romney a "Massachusetts moderate" who will "say anything to win," the ad juxtaposes clips of both Romney speaking French and Kerry windsurfing. The ad's title is a throwback to Karl Rove's 2004 statement that Kerry "looks French." Watch below: (h/t:  BuzzFeed )]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ What do the anti- John Kerry Swift Boat Veterans from the 2004 presidential election and Newt Gingrich have in common? Nothing. But Gingrich thinks his campaign has been a victim of a swift boat-like attack from Mitt Romney . The Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, a group of Vietnam war vets, was largely credited for sinking Sen. John Kerry 's presidential bid in 2004 by airing a series of negative ads and publishing a book attacking Kerry's military service record. Gingrich's campaign has seen a spate of negative ads. As of Friday, 45 percent of the ads that have aired in Iowa were anti-Gingrich, according to ABC News. Many of them were released by pro-Romney PAC Restore our Future . While campaiging in Iowa on Sunday, Gingrich was asked if he felt "swiftboated" by the series of negative ads. "I feel Romney-boated," he said, according to the Sioux City Journal. At least he didn't compare his campaign to Pearl Harbor. That would be weird .]]></description>
