Spielberg will no doubt draw inspiration from "Night of the Living Dead."
Dem ghouls will stalk the House looking for fresh Repub bodies to gnaw on.
Or Maybe this?

I was really happy when I read in the Washington Post that soon-to-be demoted to Minority Leader of the House Nancy Pelosi has turned to director Steven Spielberg to "rebrand" the House Democrats.
The story offered me a way out of my quandary -- what to title this column today. The Tea Party and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skulls, The Sugardaddy Express, Pelosi Park. Anyway, just as I selected the present title, the NY Daily News said the Spielberg story was false. I suppose after fawning all over Castro and making a video montage for Kerry, Spielberg's decided to limit his creative political work to raising money and endorsing checks.
But I'm keeping the title anyway because it reflects my respect to the fantastic job Mitch McConnell did in the lame duck session of the Senate. I know some conservatives have been apoplectic that he was unable to turn back all of Obama's initiatives. Some are furious about the passage of DADT's repeal and New START, and their disappointment is made all the stronger by the latest media meme that Obama is a "comeback kid" and that the now-ended session of Congress was the "most productive" ever.
Undoubtedly the Democrat crowing will persuade some that the party and its leader are back in the groove. Get real. The DREAM Act, the tax deal, and the Omnibus Spending Bill were their highest priority, and they lost all of those even though they held the majority. And then there was the less heralded but also significant addition of accountability and fraud prevention provisions in the 9-11 Health and Compensation Act for which Senator Coburn must be credited. In Coburn's case, a special note should be made that he checked the attempt by Senators Schumer and Gillibrand to legislate by anecdote...

As the writer says, Obama is a long way from being a “Comeback Kid.” But I dispute her conclusion that McConnell and the pubbies did a “dfantastic job” in the lame duck.
My brain flashes, as is apparent.
Why am I seeing Dustin Hoffman being escorted into a lmimo, prior to a heart attack in a hotuby a continent away..?

I hear Carville's book is coming out in paperback with a new cover pic of Obama sipping tea.....(/snix)
Good article, but what the heck does the Title have to do with the body of the article?
Sorry, just got it “Temple of Doom”....”Temple of Pork”, very weak.
Paperback? Did the hardcopy sell more than 1000 copies?
When a conservative wants to get the word out - he is talking about the truth.
When a liberal wants to get the word out - the truth is the last thing on his mind.
Is that double-speak?.. Is that WRONG?.. (persona: George Castanza/Seinfeld)..
Is Steven Spielberg the new Joseph Goebbels?..
Trying to redefine a republican cave in. Damn, Mike(Mitch) tucked his tail between his legs and ran for the spending.
Heh-—went straight to the $1.00 bin.
Ping
” Heh-—went straight to the $1.00 bin. “
LOL!!
I would've, too...until I read the report on the amendments to the New START Treaty.
Having read them, it seems to me that we got damn near everything we wanted -- and a significant number of Democrats had to vote for them to pass.
If ten or twelve 'Pubbies chose to vote for the treaty, as amended, I haven't a problem.
But I DO have a problem with the MSM. There were no reports whatsoever about the amendments. Indeed, my understanding was that the treaty could NOT be amended. Nonetheless, the GOP managed to defuse every objection we might have had.
But the press represented it as a pristine triumph for the Obama agenda...and we got gulled.
Read Clarice's report and tell me what you think...
