Henry Mancini's classic Moon River sung by one of the most beautiful women ever in showbiz is just magical in my opinion. This cut is from the awarding film Breakfast at Tiffanys, with Audrey Hepburn and George Peppard I hope you enjoy it as much as I do:

Video: Jon Stewart Asks Republicans WTF is Wrong with You, After Obama Success in Libya
Ding Dong the Witch is Dead! With the support of both the United States and NATO, Libyan dictator Khaddafi was killed yesterday at the hands of his own country's rebel forces. Watch Jon Stewart on The Daily Show's reaction to Republican critics after another National Security success by the Obama administration.
Aren't these the same Republicans who enthusiastically supported an unnecessary war in Iraq which lasted almost 9 years, cost over a trillion dollars, resulted in the death of over 4,000 American servicemen and women with another 50,000 U.S. soldiers injured and 10's of thousands of innocent Iraqi lives, yet criticized President Obama's decision, supported by NATO and the Arab league as well as the Libyan people. And prevented the slaughter of thousands of Libyans after they were threatened by Khaddafi without costing a single American life and cost less than a billion dollars. A decision which resulted in less than 8 months of American involvement, not one boot on the ground in Libya, not one American troop death and the successful end of Khaddafi's 42 year dictatorship and reign of terror which included the killing of over 270 U.S. service personal's lives in the Pan Am bombing over Lockerbie, Scotland among many other terrorists acts attributed to the Libyan dictator. President Obama's success in areas which do not require Congressional involvement only prove how much success he may have had without the unprecedented amount of Republican obstructionism we have seen used against this President. Hopefully in 2012, this country can finally get back on track if we rid ourselves of those who get in the way of progress.
Video: Promises Made Promises Kept - President Obama Announces End of War in Iraq
President Obama announced today "America's war in Iraq will be over" and "our troops will definitely be home for the holiday"s as he "promised as a candidate for president". Additionally, he stated that "the last American soldier will cross the border of Iraq with their heads held high and proud of their success...". The President also announced a severe cutback in troops in Afghanistan-cutting them by half by the end of the year with continuing troop withdrawals.

President Obama promised an end to the war in Iraq by the end of 2011 and today he has kept that promise. This will only add to the President's recent National Security successes but don't expect anything but criticism from Republicans.10/12/2011

Boston Police Throw American Flag to Ground - Do "They" Hate America?
Imagine a group of Progressives throwing an American flag to the ground. This would be the lead story for days on "The Fox News Show"- proof that all those dirty, leftist, radicals hated America and of course, along with everything Obama, wanted nothing less than the overthrow of capitalism. One problem: the flags torn down by the Boston Police Department, (the American flags), were put up by veterans who had been camped out with the 99% since Monday. Watch:
According to Boston Police Commissioner Ed Davis over 100 arrests of peaceful protesters were made, including a female Iraq War veteran. The Boston Police told the media to leave and not film proceedings. The only video available was from a live stream being broadcast by an onlooker. This was one of the largest mass arrests in recent Boston history.

Red States Face Money Over Idealogy in Fight Over "Obamacare"
You can always count on Republicans to place idealogy over practicality (and worse but definiltely true what's best for their constituents) - and you can always count on insurance companies to put profits over everything else. Well, these two trains of thought are about to collide in those red states who refuse (for of course "I hate Obama" reasons) to support their own best interests. It's the same ol' story: Money vs, Idealogy - I'm bettin on money. Check out Think Progress for more:

Midnight Snack: Video "And Down Goes O'Reilly" Jon Stewart Knocks Out Bill'O on "The Daily Show"
The bullshit Bill O'Reilly spouts daily on his useless show didn't work so well against Jon Stewart on The Daily Show. After Stewart delivers a knock out punch to the whiny multimillionaire, O'Reilly resorts to the $16 muffin lie being spread by the crazy right wing media. Watch:
Romney: U.S. Should ‘Reconsider Our Relationship’ With Countries That Support Palestinian U.N. Bid
Yesterday on his radio show, right-wing host Jordan Sekulow asked Mitt Romney how he would have handled the Palestinian bid for United Nations statehood recognition if he was president. Romney of course immediately jumped into to the standard, tired, old hat right-wing Obama-hates-Israel talking points but then he said something rather peculiar. Romney said the [...]/ More: http://thinkprogress.org/security/2011/09/28/331454/romney-reconsider-palestinian-u-n-membership/

Daily Cos just posted what is probably the worst attempt at "rapping???" by two Texas Perry supporters. A word of warning: Watching this may cause temporary hearing loss, blurry vision, night sweats or even nightmares. Watch at your own risk:
Aren't there ordinances against this kind of thing in the Texas Capitol Building?
