The problem with politics...

Amanda Carpenter reports on research some are doing on Joe Biden's grandson, and whether he was conceived "out of wedlock", as they say.

My two cents:
I think this is getting completely out of control. We as conservatives have absolutely no moral authority complaining about the intrusive coverage of Sarah Palin's family if we do the same thing to Joe Biden. I thought it was wrong when they did it to Governor Palin, and it's wrong to do it to Senator Biden.

One of the things that causes me to be a conservative is that I really do believe there is a moral code you should govern yourself by. And to dig into Joe Biden's grandson's state of birth (he was born in 1993, so he's 15 now) is just wrong.

U.S. Tax Rates Compared to the rest of the world–a.k.a “U.S. Corporations are not the evil empire”

Below is a graph showing our tax rates compared to the rest of the industrialized world (taken from Wikipedia): Two things to note: Our personal income taxes are not as bad as some anti-tax zealots would have you believe…they are lower than most. Our corporate rates, however, are horrific.  They are higher than any other industrialized country save Japan. Lesson to be learned:  it’s easy for politicians to sell lower taxes for individuals.  Much harder to sell lower rates for corporations.  And very easy for liberals to paint corporations as getting off easy (the “big, bad conglomerate” schtick).  However, it’s just not true.  “Facts are stubborn things.”  - John Adams

Negative ads

Questioner mentioned Gordon Smith's offer to stop negative ads on both sides. Merkley - "I don't have negative ads, I have ISSUE ads." Audience laughed - I don't think Merkley was trying to be funny. Bad moment for Merkley.

...have you noticed the similarities (I know they're not identical) between the candidacies of John McCain and George H.W. Bush? Both men: were decorated military veterans had lost nomination fights in the past had extensiive foreign policy resumes criticized for being less interested in domestic politics criticized for being a moderate, not being conservative enough. True enough...McCain and George HW...seperated at birth.
