Anderson Cooper last night had some useless hit segment on Michelle Bachmann. There are dozens of important issues to spend ten minutes on, but Cooper and his producers thought bitching about some tidbit Bachmann uttered in a speech was more important.

Big Majority Supports Public Spending for Jobs

A new Gallup poll finds that public support for new federal spending to create jobs is, as Greg Sargent puts it, "simply overwhelming."
