A Little Yarmuth Poetry:

Little John Yarmuth

went to the Capitol,

Promised to get us out

of the battle.

The bridges fell apart;

the hospital’s gone.

And the War in Iraq

is still going on.

Obama Slowly Takes Off The Mask: Remember how Barack Obama said that babies are punishment? A lot of people consider children gifts. Obama later said that he considers the planet we live on a gift. Maybe it is, but not one that supercedes human life.

Northup Continues To Generate National Buzz: In a Politico piece from today, Anne Northup made another appearance:

Former GOP Rep. Anne Northup raised $461,000 for her rematch against Rep. John Yarmuth (D-Ky.), who unseated her in 2006. Yarmuth raised only $255,000, making Northup one of the few Republican challengers to outraise a Democratic incumbent this quarter.

I’m not sure why the Politico left State Senator Brett Guthrie off the list of fundraising success stories, who raised about $402,000 since getting into the race to succeed Rep. Ron Lewis (KY-2).
