The AP Turns, Mexican Gang Wars, Christie v. Department of Education and More …
The Heritage Foundation | September 2, 2010
- The Associated Press isn’t buying administration spin any longer: the news service fact-checks Vice President Joe Biden’s claims about the success of the “stimulus.”
- In a sign that the Mexican gang war is getting dangerously out of control, the bodies of 72 Central American migrants were found massacred just 85 miles south of the American border.
- New Jersey governor Chris Christie is blasting the federal bureaucrats at the Department of Education, who denied his state a $400 million “Race to the Top” grant because of a clerical error.
- While former U.S. President Jimmy Carter was in North Korea trying to secure the release of an imprisoned American citizen, the country’s dictator, Kim Jong Il, was inexplicably in China visiting a local school once attended by his father.
- The left is in disbelief that its policies aren’t working or pose a political liability. Instead, progressives have convinced themselves that conservative bigots are to blame. It is precisely this thinking, argues Charles Krauthammer, and the left’s unwillingness to concede “a modicum of serious thought to those who dare oppose them” that will deliver severe consequences come November.
- Admitting that the recovery so far has been “soft,” Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke pledged that his agency would act to prevent a fresh economic downturn.
