Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL) calls in at 9:05am ET / 6:05am PT for another edition of “Face The Grayson”

Rep. Frank Pallone (D-NJ) calls in at 10:30am ET / 7:30am PT to talk about jobs and the economy

Van Jones, environmental advocate and Senior Fellow at the Center for American Progress, calls in at 11:30am ET / 8:30am PT to talk about the BP Oil Spill and the Shirley Sherrod case

• States that had been watching Arizona’s immigration law in hopes of copying it received a rude awakening when a judge put most of the measure on hold and agreed with the Obama administration’s core argument that immigration enforcement is the role of the federal government.

House and Senate Dem leaders Tuesday rolled out their big “spill bills” — the main legislative responses to the Gulf oil spill. The proposals are packed with aggressive offshore drilling reforms that the GOP has long fought and were immediately met with fierce pushback from the GOP and the oil industry.

• Federal officials now estimate that more than 1 million gallons of oil may have spilled into a major river in southern Michigan, and the governor is sharply criticizing clean-up efforts as “wholly inadequate.”

President Obama’s appearance on “The View” today was taped yesterday and will be his third on the show. It is his first as president — indeed it is the first appearance of any sitting president on a daytime TV talk show.

Paz a todos.
Today is "Tell a Racist to Suck It" Day.

Toodles all and good luck to everyone with doctor's appointments!

So long everybody. Have a great day, and I'll be here for an hour or so tomorrow.

I'm glad to hear Steph only fakes it on tv...

Have a great day, everyone!

Even Aretha can't erase the stigma of a Burt Bacharach song.

#464: Drier guy? Don't they have machines for that now??

Steph would have been a bridezilla, just sayin'.

Lindsey Lohan needs her "family time"... obviously not with her dad but with cousins Johnny Walker, Jack and Mary Jane.

gotta go ...drier guy is coming YAY!

#445 Deprived of sleep by drunken idiots till 3:30am, "somebody on the liveblog"

well, you know I gotta do what I gotta do

What? The Lohans are the model American family.

Ok to all people that still watch reality tv: read a book. Listen to music. Play with yourself for heaven's sake. Just. Stop. Watching. Reality. TV.

My Bed Bug's are trained : )

Rosie O'Donnell said she thinks it's a bad idea for President Obama to go on the show she once co-hosted.

100 to 1 Lohan goes straight out & has a drink.

I avoid bedbugs by sleeping on the couch.

"Mr President, if you had to eat bugs, would you go with the crunchy kind or the chewy?"

Dear Mexicans,
Thanks for taking one for the Team.
Sincerely,
The Italians, The Irish, The Slavs, The Poles, The African Americans....

#431 - Nope.

Nuke it from orbit. That's the only way to be sure.

Hasselbeck = intelligence deficit syndrome

He did it all for the snookie, the snookie!

Ousted Agriculture Department employee Shirley Sherrod says she will sue a conservative blogger who posted an edited video of her making racially tinged remarks last week.

Back...and YAY SHIRLEY!

YOU GO GIRL!! It's about time that someone like Breitbart gets sued for slander/libel!!

Oh wait, Germans are white skinned.

Sue baby sue!

#45: "33 Nick I wasn’t in the class of 1980 … I was helping them"

Cindy, friends don't let friends revive the eighties.

The right -wing argument that illegals just send their $$ back to Mexico is funny.
It's like saying that we can't buy a Porsche because the money is going to Germany.

BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAhahahahaha

#437: Speaking of Beck did anyone see Dlisted today? They have school photos of him. Looks like an asshat even then.

434: .. to remove the surrounding asshole.

Obama on the View??? Wow

#435: saw = say.
Duh.

#434: yeah they didn't completely get all of it. They need to start at the head & work their way down.

Chris, you are such as tease! ;)

Did she just saw "bed-buggers"?

Beck needs another hemorrhoid operation..

WHO NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE?
OIL EXECUTIVES, WALL STREET OLIGARCHY, MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX,
and CONGRESS...

#429: we live in a world where people read reviews & 'customers also bought' to buy whether they'll like it or not. No wonder Beck is so popular. Tell me what to think, oh Lord!

Antidote to Glenn Beck? Fire, and plenty of it!

#428: What a perfect description of SNL. Well done.

427 - Who needs critical thinking skills when Glenn Beck is there and ready to spoon-feed you the "Truth"?

#393: Ah, SNL... 15 minutes of comedy gold wrapped up in a 90 minute time slot.

I'll say it again, we need to teach critical thinking skills, so that this flood of info (good and bad) can be evaluated by its recipients.

425--I didn't think of that. Next time my stagecoach gets robbed, I can have a shoot-out with the bad guys. So there is a positive side of this law.
