The Senate health reform bill will not allow illegal immigrants to get benefits and prohibits taxpayer funding of abortion, reports Senate Budget Committee Chairman Kent Conrad. He said that unlike the House bill, there's no surtax on the wealthy, but there is a Medicare payroll tax of 1.95 percent on couples who earn more than $250,000 annually. The reimbursement rates for the public plan will not be tied to Medicare, and co-ops will still be offered.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s health reform bill comes in at $849 billion, and will reduce the federal budget deficit by $127 billion in the first 10 years, the Congressional Budget Office says, according to a senior Democratic aide.

YouTube - Maricopa County Sheriff's employee takes documents from defense attorney

In response, Sheriff Joe Arapaio released this statement: "Superior court judges do not order my officers to hold press conferences. I decide who holds press conferences and when they are held regarding this Sheriff's Office. My officer was doing his job and I will not stand by and allow him to be thrown to the wolves by the courts because they feel pressure from the media on this situation."

This type of behavior by Sheriff's deputies happens continuously in Cook County Illinois. They believe they are above the law. They harass whoever they want because of supervisors like Sheriff Joe Arapaio.

The penalty the judge ordered here is light. This deputy should have charged with theft, among other offenses. How can these individuals or our justice system tell others to obey the laws we all have to live by.

Media Matters Daily Summary

Here are today's news items from Media Matters for America, click on the title or 'read more' to read the entirety of each story. Quick Fact: Scarborough falsely claimed trials of foreign terror suspects through U.S. judiciary are "unprecedented" MSNBC host Joe Scarborough falsely claimed that it is "unprecedented" to try foreign terror suspects through the United States' judicial system, stating, "It's unprecedented to afford constitutional rights to, basically, prisoners of war." In fact, during the Bush and Clinton administrations numerous foreign terrorists have been tried and imprisoned by our federal system, including 9-11 conspirator Zacarious Moussaoui and 1993 World Trade Center bomber Ramzi Ahmed Yousef. Read More Morris falsely claimed Obama said he "opposes a congressional investigation" into Fort Hood Dick Morris and Eileen McGann falsely claimed in the New York Post that President Obama said "he opposes a congressional investigation into the Fort Hood massacre" and that Obama "is doing his best to stop Congress from finding out why these warnings went unheeded." In fact, in his November 14 weekly address Obama said "there should" be "inquiries by Congress." Read More Echoing a right-wing blog, Doocy repeatedly claimed Obama's bow was unprecedented In reporting on the manner in which President Obama greeted Japanese Emperor Akihito, Fox & Friends host Steve Doocy repeatedly claimed that "dating back to the very founding of this Republic, American leaders do not bow to leaders of other countries." In fact, Obama's greeting was far from unprecedented, as several past Presidents have bowed while greeting foreign leaders. Additionally, in reporting on Obama's bow, Fox & Friends repeatedly cited right-wing blog Hot Air in their reports on Obama's greeting. Read More Quick Fact: On Oprah, Palin repeats falsehood that media didn't criticize "other candidates" over fashion During an interview with Oprah Winfrey, Sarah Palin trumpeted the false claim from her memoir, Going Rogue, that criticism over reports that the Republican National Committee spent $150,000 to clothe and accessorize Palin and her family represented a "double standard," because "it wasn't a controversy with other candidates." In fact, Democratic primary candidates Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, and John Edwards were repeatedly criticized for their clothing and hair. Read More Fox, MSNBC reports of "local opposition" to housing Guantánamo detainees omit reports of local support Following the announcement by Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn and Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) that the Obama administration is considering housing Guantánamo detainees in a largely vacant prison in Thomson, Illinois, Fox News' Catherine Herridge reported that that "we're seeing some signs of local opposition" among the residents, and MSNBC's Monica Novotny said there was local "outrage." Both omitted additional reporting that some residents welcome the decision, which could provide employment and economic stimulus to the community; indeed, Herridge ignored an earlier report on Fox News that some residents are "pretty open" to the decision. Read More Quick Fact: Beck smears SEIU's Stern as a communist because he said "workers of the world, unite" Glenn Beck asked, "What are the goals of Andy Stern and SEIU?" then aired a clip of Stern stating on PBS's Bill Moyers Journal, "workers of the world, unite, it's not just a slogan anymore. It's the way we're going to have to do our work." Beck then commented that "workers of the world, unite" is "a really dicey kind of phrase there" because "it's the old communist slogan," adding: "Good thing there hasn't been a recent rash of communist radicals running around the White House, right? I mean, because then I'd really be concerned." Read More Quick Fact: In latest Beck conspiracy, SEIU's Stern tied to alleged beating In his latest conspiracy theory, Glenn Beck tied SEIU's Andy Stern to the alleged beating of SEIU critic Ken Hamidi. Read More Quick Fact: Morris again falsely claimed Obama said he's "against a congressional investigation" into Fort Hood On Hannity, Dick Morris again falsely claimed that President Obama said "he's against a congressional investigation of Fort Hood because he doesn't want to kindle political theater."

Media Matters Daily Summary

Here are today's news items from Media Matters for America, click on the title or 'read more' to read the entirety of each story. Van Susteren hypes Palin memoir, but fails to disclose her husband advised Palin after 2008 campaign Fox News host Greta Van Susteren devoted the opening segment of her prime-time program to covering Sarah Palin's yet-to-be released memoir, Going Rogue: An American Life -- about which she claimed "the entire country is buzzing" -- including making a pitch for Palin to appear on her program. But at no point during the segment did Van Susteren disclose to her viewers that her husband, John Coale, reportedly advised Palin following the 2008 presidential campaign and reportedly stated that he conceived of and created Palin's political action committee, SarahPAC. Read More Rogue Fact: Palin attacks "Democrat lawmaker" who's actually a Republican In her memoir, Going Rogue: An American Life, Sarah Palin mocks the "political buckshot" her "critics fired" at her, pointing to a "Democrat lawmaker" in Alaska who "complained that I wasn't as 'sparky' " after the 2008 election. Palin appeared to be referring to a January 31 Associated Press article that quoted Republican Alaska state Sen. Bert Stedman describing Palin as "[n]ot so sparky." Read More Rogue Fact: In memoir, Palin still distorting NY Times article to defend "palling around with terrorists" claim In her memoir, Sarah Palin claims that she stated during a speech that then-Sen. Barack Obama had been "palling around with terrorists" in response to "the breaking news about the friendship between the unrepentant domestic terrorist [Bill Ayers] and the Democrat candidate for president [Obama]." In fact, the New York Times article to which Palin referred found that "the two men do not appear to have been close." Read More Rogue Fact: Palin falsely suggests poor "hit hardest" by cap-and-trade In her memoir, Sarah Palin falsely suggests that "those hit hardest [by cap-and-trade] will be those who are already struggling to make ends meet" and that President Obama "has already admitted that the policy he seeks will cause our electricity bills to 'skyrocket.' " However, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office says that the poorest Americans will benefit under the cap-and-trade bill that passed in the House in June -- a bill the Obama administration supported, but which Obama was not referring to in making his "skyrocket" comment. Read More Rogue Fact: Palin memoir stands by falsehood that Obama opposed "protect[ing] babies born alive after botched abortions" In her memoir, while discussing abortion, Sarah Palin claims that the "real extremism" on abortion comes from people "like Barack Obama, who opposed laws that would protect babies born alive after botched abortions" -- a reference to Obama's opposition to legislation that would have amended the Illinois Abortion Law of 1975. However, opponents of the legislation noted at the time that the Illinois criminal code already unequivocally prohibited killing children; and the Obama presidential campaign cited specific provisions of the Illinois Compiled Statutes in stating that the "born alive principle was already the law in Illinois." Read More Rogue Fact: Palin misleads on aerial hunting In her memoir, Sarah Palin falsely suggests that Alaskans do not engage in the aerial hunting of wolves. In fact, such hunting takes place in Alaska under a program that Palin herself has supported. Read More Rogue Fact: Palin suggests "no other candidate" subjected to scrutiny "about their hair, makeup, or clothes" Sarah Palin writes in her memoir that after it was reported that the Republican National Committee spent $150,000 "to clothe and accessorize" Palin and her family, "many wondered at the same time why no other candidates or their spouses were being asked a thing about their hair, makeup, or clothes." However, John Edwards, Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, and Barack Obama were repeatedly subjected to critiques and questions about "their hair, makeup, or clothes" during the 2008 campaign. Read More Rogue Fact: Palin still falsely claiming stimulus money for energy effiency she vetoed required tougher building codes In her memoir, Sarah Palin claims that she vetoed an "earmark for energy conservation" Alaska could have received under the stimulus package because "acceptance of the funds required the adoption and enforcement of energy building codes." When Palin previously made a similar claim, PolitiFact.com determined that she was "wrong" because "municipalities are not forced to accept the specific standards and, given that local governments set their own codes, the feds would be satisfied if Alaska merely promoted such building codes [emphasis in original]."

Letter From the Editor of Newsmax

Letter From the Editor Concerning Our Country and Your Wealth Dear Newsmax Reader, Many of you are concerned with the future of our economy and how that will affect your wealth. And rightfully so. You are in the midst of witnessing firsthand the utter downfall of the U.S. dollar. And the aftermath of such a financial catastrophe will be nothing short of staggering. At its current pace, our dollar will lose as much as 30% of its value in the next year alone. As you are well aware, a weak dollar will put a serious damper on any gains you've realized in the stock market. If your portfolio rewards you with a 25% gain, but the dollar drops 30% — did you really make any money on your investments? If this hyperinflation strikes our nation, will bonds, CDs, and money markets help you even tread water financially? Or will they cause your wealth to sink? Over the past couple of weeks I've received countless emails from readers just like you. You don't want just answers. . . you want solutions. You want to know where to put your money now so it's not only protected but has an opportunity to prosper. And I want to help. When I founded Newsmax 11 years ago, I made it my mission to not only keep America informed with the news the mainstream media is unwilling to cover but also to present you with concrete solutions to the problems that grip us all. With that in mind I recently organized the Emergency Dollar Summit. I was joined by the CEO and Editor inChief of Forbes Magazine Steve Forbes, Libertarian vice-presidential nominee Wayne Allyn Root, and global currency expert Sean Hyman. If you haven't had a chance to view this critical online broadcast click this link now and it will begin automatically. As a supplement to the Emergency Dollar Summit with Steve Forbes, I've included a very exciting report detailing how some average Americans are using the currency market to potentially make very sizable personal windfalls in the face of this global economic adversity. In the report, I reveal how you could join your friends, family, and neighbors in an exciting venture I've created for you. I'm putting $1.5 million of my company's money behind an initiative that could help investors take advantage of the incredible wealth creation opportunities that currency investing offers. If you'd like to read more about this go here now, and you will be provided with this report and a personal broadcast of the Emergency Dollar Summit.
