At New York Times , ” Christie Team Assessing How Fast a 2012 Campaign Could Be Mounted .” The question isn’t should Christie run, but what are his chances of beating Mitt Romney? Might be tough, at this point, and he’s vulnerable on the issues just like Rick Perry, who’s now kinda crashing after the big debut. And of course Christie will face endless attacks for his weight, which isn’t just unfair, but genuinely cruel. The Los Angeles Times asks, ” Is Christie’s weight fair game, or did Letterman cross the line? ” And do we even need to ask? RELATED : From Andrew Breitbart, at Human Events , ” Man, I Like That Guy: Chris Christie’s Dude Factor .”

The great former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations and occasional NRO contributor John Bolton writes in Human Events today : Obama’s policies are jeopardizing not only our national security and economy, but our constitutional sovereignty too.
**Written by Doug Powers Harry Reid has decided to ratchet up the scare tactics a notch. We’ve already been told that if the debt ceiling isn’t raised and taxes increased, government checks might not go out , but now the schools will close : To fall for these scare tactics you have to believe that refusal to raise the debt ceiling means that the government will suddenly stop taking in revenue, which obviously isn’t true (you’ll notice that at no point have Dems tried to frighten Americans by telling them that if the debt ceiling isn’t raised there won’t be enough money to fund the IRS — but on second thought maybe that should be the Republican talking point). Human Events : Once again, courtesy of the Examiner’s Mark Tapscott, here are the hard numbers , in monthly amounts, for anyone foolish enough to buy into Democrat scare tactics: Federal revenue: $200 billion per month Interest on the national debt: $29 billion Social Security: $49.2 billion Medicare and Medicaid: $50 billion Active duty military pay: $2.9 billion Veterans affairs programs: $2.9 billion Education funding: $11 billion All of that core spending adds up to $145 billion, which means that in the event of a debt limit, the government can pay it all and still have $55 billion a month left over. Note also that this Tweet absolutely confirms Harry Reid is a liar, rather than simply an idiot, since he has previously insisted that Social Security “is in great shape for many decades… Today it is not a problem.” Call the bluff , Republicans! As August 2nd approaches, Democrats will be sweating like John Kerry during a luxury tax audit. Not because they fear default, but because they know a Y2K moment for the general population is approaching — that morning when everyone wakes up, looks around, realizes the world didn’t end and exclaims, “ that’s what we were freaked out about?” **Written by Doug Powers Twitter @ThePowersThatBe *** Update from MM: This calls for my favorite kiddie human shield graphic… ( Makestickers.com )
