- Former Rep. Ernest Istook suggests that President Obama ought to get Al Sharpton, Julian Bond, Jesse Jackson, Ward Connerly, CORE (Congress of Racial Equality), Herman Cain, Ken Blackwell and J.C.

- Finally Wendy Wright of Concerned Women for America explains why the Right was so opposed to efforts to including funding for family planning in the stimulus bill – because it would have cut down on the number of children, and we need those children to pay down the debt:
The economic stimulus bill shifts the burden of the debt onto the next generation; yet if we are spending billions of more dollars in ‘family planning,’ there won’t be much of a next generation to pay this huge debt.”
