In a recent issue of Slate, the online magazine, political reporter Christopher Beam researched a question growing in many people's minds: "Can California declare bankruptcy?" The answer is no. Beam explains that if California can no longer meet its financial obligations and runs out of borrowing sources, the federal government can put the state into receivership.

To manage the state's debt, the feds would appoint an accountant who would in turn be overseen by a judge. The accountant, or the California Czar, would have the power to force creditors to renegotiate the terms of their outstanding loans.

Quick question: When two of the most liberal, mean-spirited, and partisan Democrats craft legislation, how should Republicans respond? Washington Post columnist E.J. Dionne Jr, thinks they ought to jump onboard and help out.

The issue is "Citizens United," the Supreme Court decision that has Democrats panicked. The Court held that the First Amendment does allow corporations to spend their own money on advocacy messages during election cycles.

Over the weekend, the Washington Post warned the Democrats that their "ethical lapses" might cost them majorities come November. This followed the resignation of New York Congressman Eric Massa, under investigation for sexually harassing a male staffer, and Charlie Rangel, stepping down from Ways and Means under the weight of his scandals. The steady drip of Democrat corruption stories puts the lie to Pelosi's promise to "run the most ethical Congress in history" and Democrats' promise to "drain the swamp" in Washington.

Recently, my friends, an Iranian appeals court gave its blessing to a death sentence to be carried out against a 20-year-old student. During the riots following the sham election of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the young man threw stones at security forces. For that, he was found guilty of waging war against God. Other students are awaiting the same fate.

Recently, a North Korea factory worker was publicly executed by firing squad. His offense: speaking with a friend in South Korea on an illegal mobile phone. He divulged the price of rice in North Korea. The only comfort is that he has been released from hell on earth.

Matthew Goldstein, Chancellor of the City University of New York recently published a very impassioned editorial in the New York Post. Goldstein pleads with the New York legislature not to 'slash' over $100 million from their budget. Eighty-four million would come from the senior colleges another $22 million from community colleges.

My friends, Forbes just issued a report on the financial health of red and blue states. Those in the worst shape were Illinois, New York, Connecticut, and New Jersey, and they all have some thing in common: governments dominated by liberal Democrats, and unions having greater influence on local economies.

Meanwhile, the Associated Press is reporting that Big Labor is growing a little frustrated with the man-child, President Obama -- this, despite the payback unions got for the $400 million they poured into his election, and despite the ownership stakes Obama gave them in his government-run auto companies... and his sending billions in Porkulus slush funds their way.

Last week, Senator Jim Bunning, Kentucky Republican, objected to a last-minute $10 billion bill that included yet another round of unemployment benefits, and funding for highway and transit programs. Since then, Bunning has been demonized by the White House, by Democrats, by union thugs, and the State-Controlled Media for putting people out of work and being coldhearted to the unemployed.

The Washington Post reports a private meeting was held last week between environmentalist wacko leaders and three senators: Joe Lieberman, Lindsey Grahamnesty, and John Kerry (who, by the way, served in Vietnam). Supposedly, the wacko leaders were told that cap-and-tax, the plan to combat supposed manmade greenhouse gases, was "dead."

The three senators had been working to produce a cap and tax plan to counter the House cap and tax plan, but now, says the Post, they're "engaged in a radical behind-the-scenes overhaul of climate legislation," because the original plan Democrats wanted has become "political poison."

Well, looky here, folks. He's back. The still very liberal former governor of New York, Eliot Spitzer (also known as Love Client #9), recently wrote a piece for the online magazine "Hate" -- "Slate." Sorry. Under the headline "Tax Fraud," Spitzer attempts to make the case for -- what else -- higher taxes.

Folks, I hope I get through this without throwing up. Many of America's top CEOs belong to the Business Roundtable. This week, Obama showed up there with a speech on competitiveness. He said we should get past the "old debates and crippling divides between right and left, business and labor, private enterprise and the public sector."

"Rather than hurling accusations about big government liberals or mean-spirited conservatives," he said, we must answer tough questions. "Getting this balance right has less to do with big government or small government than it does smart government. It's not about being anti-business or pro-government; it's about being pro-growth and pro-jobs."
