Wednesday Morning Open Thread

Good morning.

So, good work by Obama on health insurance reform in Portsmouth yesterday. Sounds like the White House is honing its message (finally.) Meanwhile, the GOP mob is still working its campaign of intimidation. Not sure thuggery is a good marketing strategy.

Later today, President Obama will hand out the Medals of Freedom. You'll recall that Harvey Milk is a recipient. It's a well-deserved tribute. But, now, we just need the President to follow through on his LGBT campaign promises. That White House cocktail party didn't really make things better. We need action. A good question for our "leaders" at this juncture is: What would Harvey do?

What else is going on out there?
