Governor Palin Takes on Politico's Anonymous Sources
As Doug linked in a previous post , Governor Palin responded to yesterday's Politico piece in an email to the Daily Caller. This is the second Politico piece in recent weeks laden with quotes from anonymous GOP sources. The first piece was quickly refudiated by Glenn Beck and Mark Levin . The most recent piece was smack down by Greta van Susteren last night when she questioned the anonymous sources who want to be in charge of our national security do not even have the guts to attach their names to their quotes bashing Governor Palin. In the Daily Caller piece, Governor Palin, with her signature use of truthful sarcasm calls out these anonymous sources:Palin also mocked Politico?s use of anonymous sources, saying, ?I suppose I could play their immature, unprofessional, waste-of-time game, too, by claiming these reporters and politicos are homophobe, child molesting, tax evading, anti-dentite, puppy-kicking, chain smoking porn producers?really, they are? I?ve seen it myself?but I?ll only give you the information off-the-record, on deep, deep background; attribute these ?facts? to an ?anonymous source? and I?ll give you more.In addition to referencing the paleness of KTVA reporters who were plotting an scurrilous story line for a piece on Joe Miller and his supporters, Governor Palin also makes a clever reference to Seinfeld with her "anti-dentite" reference, further emphasizing the ridiculousness of anonymous sources in politics:The greater issue is that of the liberal media and the Establishment GOP. The American media is growing increasingly distrustful of a media that do not put names to their sources. The American people are also becoming more distrustful of the political machine that sees the greater goal being increased party power at any cost rather than a stronger stance on party principles. That is why elections have consequences. Many Establishment Republicans did not win their primaries, and Movement Republicans are poised to have a huge impact on the Midterm elections tomorrow. That's why Americans go to the polls--for the airing of grievances. A Festivus Pole (Poll), anyone?Read more from the Daily Caller piece here.

Statement by the Vice President on New Recovery Act Recipient Reports
Release Time:
For Immediate Release
Tonight, the Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board posted on Recovery.gov quarterly reports required from some recipients of Recovery Act funding. The recipient reports provide more detailed information about a portion of Recovery Act activity during the third quarter of 2010. The Vice President issued the following statement:
“I’m encouraged by these new reports which show that the Recovery Act is continuing to play a critical role in creating jobs and supporting economic growth in communities across the country. Recipients report directly funding over 670,000 jobs last quarter with about 20 percent of Recovery Act funds – in-line with independent estimates that the Recovery Act is supporting about 3 million jobs overall.”
“The upswing in infrastructure jobs reported reflects the significant activity underway nationwide over the last few months on infrastructure projects ranging from highway construction to clean water. And, even as the new state education aid we secured this summer begins to kick in, the Recovery Act continues to support hundreds of thousands of education jobs across the country.”
“A record number of recipients filed reports this quarter, providing the American people with the most detailed look yet at some of the ways the Recovery Act is creating jobs in their community. Because these reports provide real-time data directly from the recipients themselves, they are not perfect or complete - but, in keeping with our commitment to transparency and accountability, they offer the public an unprecedented view of the Recovery Act as it’s put to work.”

Stromberg Metal Works, Beltsville, Maryland
11:42 A.M. EDT
THE PRESIDENT: Hello, everybody. (Applause.) Good to see you. Thank you. Thank you so much. Everybody, please have a seat. It is wonderful to be here at Stromberg Metal Works. And I want to thank Bob Gawne and his lovely bride of 58 years, Patricia, for their incredible hospitality.
I also want to note that you’ve got your great senator from the state of Maryland, Ben Cardin, in the house. Give him a big round of applause. (Applause.) Your other senator, Barbara Mikulski, couldn’t make it but wanted me to say hello on her behalf, as well as Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, who couldn’t make it but wants to say hello as well. And I know they are all incredibly proud of this amazing facility.
I just took a tour with Bob and saw a little bit of what you guys do here, saw the workers turning raw metal into sheets, cutting it into shapes, banging it into finished products. Everybody here is proud of what they do, and it shows in the great work that you do. This is a company with a proud history. Paul Stromberg, a former Navy metalsmith, founded it in 1940. In 1958, a young former Marine -- Bob -- came on as chief engineer. And nearly 30 years later, Bob bought the company. Today, it is in its 70th year of operation, it is employee-owned, it continues to grow. We’ve got a unionized workforce that -- where folks who put in a hard day’s work get a living wage that allows them to support a family. This is a community business where even during downturns in tough times people are looking out for each other.
So it just describes, I think, what's best about America and what's best about American business. And we are very, very proud of you. It’s an all-American success story, and I’m proud to be here. That's right. (Applause.)
Now, this morning, we learned that our economy grew at a rate of 2 percent over the last three months. We’ve had nine consecutive months of private sector job growth, after nearly two years of job loss. But as we continue to dig out from the worst recession in 80 years, our mission is to accelerate that recovery and encourage more rapid growth, so that businesses like this one can continue to prosper and we can get the millions of Americans who are still looking for jobs back to work.
Now, I don’t believe that government can or should guarantee the success of this company or any company. I don’t think Bob or any business owner expects government to guarantee success. Success has to be earned. It has to be earned the old-fashioned way through great ideas and hard work and great employees. That’s the American way.
But there are times, like in the past few years, when our economy is hit with as devastating a blow as we’ve seen -- when credit is frozen, when demand is stalled -- that we’ve got a responsibility to offer temporary and targeted incentives to spur investment, to knock down the barriers that stand in your way, and to help create the conditions you need to grow and to hire and to prosper. And that’s what we’ve done.
Since I took office, we’ve cut taxes for small businesses 16 times -- 16 different tax cuts for small businesses. Instead of providing tax breaks for companies that are shipping jobs overseas, we’re giving tax breaks to encourage companies to invest right here in the United States of America -- in small businesses, in clean energy firms, in manufacturers, in businesses like this one. And we’ve taken steps to expand lending to small businesses, which, even with good credit, continue to have difficulty borrowing the capital they need to grow.
It’s been just over one month since I signed the Small Business Jobs Act into law. And in that month, just one month, through just one provision in that bill, the Small Business Administration, the SBA, has supported nearly $3 billion in new loans to more than 5,000 small businesses across the country. That’s fast. And we expect that when all is said and done, these steps will help support tens of billions of dollars in loans to our entrepreneurs so they can expand, they can grow, and they can hire new workers in communities like this one.
Now, that same initiative also accelerated $55 billion in new tax relief for businesses that make job-creating investments over the next year, including by extending a provision in the Recovery Act called business expensing, or bonus depreciation. Now, this is a pretty simple concept. What it does is allow a business like this one to immediately deduct 50 percent of the cost of certain investments like new equipment.
And I was talking to Bob and he says he’s got to buy a new piece of equipment for this plant basically every year. The reason this company is able to compete against low-wage countries, against non-union workforces, is because it’s got better equipment and it’s got more skilled, better workers. That’s the reason that it’s succeeding. (Applause.)
So what I want to do to accelerate this recovery is to allow businesses of all sizes to immediately deduct the entire cost of these investments -- 100 percent -- all next year, through the end of 2011. And that means that business owners like Bob who decide to upgrade their plants, upgrade their equipment -- that means that they are able to write off immediately that depreciation in one year. And that means that they're going to have additional money to invest in workers and in other plants and equipment.
So let’s just take the example of Stromberg. Let’s say that a similar business is thinking about buying $1 million worth of additional shop equipment next year. Typically, the business might only be able to deduct the value of that new equipment over the course of several years. Under this proposal, a business like this one would be able to deduct all $1 million next year. That accelerates hundreds of thousands of dollars in tax cuts -- real money that business can use to expand or hire new workers.
Now, this is not a shot in the dark. This is a proposal that works. A new report from the Treasury Department estimates that it will accelerate $150 billion in tax cuts for 2 million businesses, large and small, around the country.
It would temporarily lower the average cost of investment by more than 75 percent for companies like Stromberg, creating a powerful new incentive for businesses to invest more right now -- perhaps about $50 billion -- which will generate more jobs and more growth.
So this is a good idea. It’s a proven idea. It’s an idea that will allow more equipment to be purchased and eventually more folks to be hired. And it will put a dent in the jobless rate that we’ve got to keep on working on because it’s way too high right now.
And, look, I know we’re at the height of political season. I just had my guy show me a little button showing that he had already voted -- early voted. So I hope everybody else is using that as an example. But it is political season. Political season is going to be over soon. And when it does, all of us are going to have a responsibility, Democrats and Republicans, to work together wherever we can to promote jobs and growth.
And the idea I’m advancing today is one that both Democrats and Republicans should be able to support. In fact, Republicans have actually offered this idea in the past. It’s a simple proposal that will make a serious difference for this company and others like it. It will encourage business investment right now. It will create jobs right now. It will help our economy grow right now. And when many of our friends and neighbors are still navigating through some tough times, that’s what America needs right now.
When I hear Bob and Patricia talk about their lives together and building this -- helping to build this company, I’m reminded that this country has been through tough times before. We’ve weathered tough times before. And it’s precisely in those times that we regrouped, we reinvested, we retooled, and we rebuilt. It’s in those times that we recaptured the ingenuity and the resilience that makes us a great people and makes this a great country.
And that’s the spirit that we’ve got to recapture and unleash once again -- a spirit of optimism and confidence and hope that has made America the most dynamic country in the world. And standing here with all of you, I am absolutely convinced that there are going to be brighter days ahead for America -- an America where businesses like this one are leading our economy forward and workers like all of you are rewarded for the work that you do; where our middle class is growing again and investment is being made here in the United States again; and the American Dream is back within the reach for all who are willing to work for it; where we’re forging our future the way you forge your steel right here -- with hard work, and sweat, with American know-how and ingenuity, cooperating together, working together. That’s how the folks who came before us built the first American century in plants just like this one. That’s how we’re going to make sure that the 21st century is an American century, as well.
So thank you very much, everybody. God bless you. God bless America. Bob and Patricia, thanks for the great work that you do. Thank you. (Applause.)

Presidential Proclamation--National Diabetes Month
Release Time:
For Immediate Release
-------
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
A PROCLAMATION
Today, nearly 24 million Americans have diabetes, and thousands more are diagnosed each day. During National Diabetes Month, we recommit to educating Americans about the risk factors and warning signs of diabetes, and we honor all those living with or lost to this disease.
Diabetes can lead to severe health problems and complications such as heart disease, stroke, vision loss, kidney disease, nerve damage, and amputation. Type 1 diabetes, which can occur at any age but is most often diagnosed in young people, is managed by a lifetime of regular medication or insulin treatment. Type 2 diabetes is far more common, and the number of people developing or at elevated risk for the disease is growing at an alarming rate, including among our Nation's children. Risk is highest among individuals over the age of 45, particularly those who are overweight, inactive, or have a family history of the disease, as well as among certain racial and minority groups. While less prevalent, gestational diabetes in expectant mothers may lead to a more complicated or dangerous delivery, and can contribute to their child's obesity later in life. With more Americans becoming affected by diabetes and its consequences every day, our Nation must work together to better prevent, manage, and treat this disease in all its variations.
Obesity is one of the most significant risk factors for Type 2 diabetes. National Diabetes Month gives Americans an opportunity to redouble their efforts to reduce their chances of developing Type 2 diabetes by engaging in regular physical activity, maintaining a healthy weight, and making nutritious food choices. For people already living with diabetes, these lifestyle changes can help with the management of this disease, and delay or prevent complications.
We must also do more to reverse the climbing rates of childhood obesity so all America's children can grow into healthy, happy, and active adults. Through her "Let's Move!" initiative, First Lady Michelle Obama is helping to lead an Administration-wide effort to solve the epidemic of childhood obesity within a generation. "Let's Move!" promotes nutritious foods and physical activities that lead to life-long healthy habits. I encourage all parents, educators, and concerned Americans to visit www.LetsMove.gov for more information and resources on making healthy choices for our children.
The new health insurance reform law, the Affordable Care Act, adds a number of tools for reversing the increase in diabetes and caring for those facing this disease. Insurance companies are no longer able to deny health coverage or exclude benefits for children due to a pre-existing condition, including diabetes. This vital protection will apply to all Americans by 2014. Also, all new health plans and Medicare must now provide diabetes screenings free of charge to patients, and Medicare covers the full cost of medical nutritional therapy to help seniors manage diabetes. This landmark new law also requires most chain restaurants to clearly post nutritional information on their menus, ensuring that Americans have consistent facts about food choices and can make more informed, healthier selections.
In recognition of National Diabetes Month, I commend those bravely fighting this disease; the families and friends who support them; and the health care providers, researchers, and advocates working to reduce this disease's impact on our Nation. Together, we can take the small steps that lead to big
rewards -- a healthier future for our citizens and our Nation.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim November 2010 as National Diabetes Month. I call upon all Americans, school systems, government agencies, nonprofit organizations, health care providers, and research institutions to join in activities that raise diabetes awareness and help prevent, treat, and manage the disease.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-ninth day of October, in the year of our Lord two thousand ten, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty-fifth.
