http://twitter.com/#!/DRUDGE/status/344419119946412033 Matt Drudge took to his personal Twitter account Tuesday morning to ask that profound question. Laura Ingraham swiftly responded: http://twitter.com/#!/IngrahamAngle/status/344431171364589568 Others took the opportunity to snarkily tie it into the NSA surveillance scandal.

This Little Guy Was Sleeping Soundly Until The Radio Came On. Then? Dance Party!

Taking a baby for a ride in the car is a tried-and-true strategy for putting them to bed. There’s something about the constant rocking motion of the car that can make even the grumpiest baby (or road trip buddy) fall asleep. Once those eyes close, you want to be careful not to turn on the radio.

Although, if you do, some awesomeness like this could happen:

OO.ready(function() { OO.Player.create(‘ooyalaplayer’, ‘VybXU4cTrNChEjDVa3ZbDG9ouH6jco9z’, {‘autoplay’:true}); });

Well, lesson learned! Some babies cry when they get startled awake. Other babies dance their pants off.

Diversity! Matthew Modine explains how all Hispanic baseball players should think

http://twitter.com/#!/MatthewModine/status/390268247628464128

What a giver.

Progressives of Pallor spokesman and actor Matthew Modine descended from the heavens on Tuesday to decree that henceforth, all Hispanic baseball players shall speak loudly for immigration reform. Because why should Hispanic ballplayers think for themselves? They have Master Modine to do that pesky thinking on their behalf.

The clueless and ignorant Modine also linked to “To Kill an American,” his short film about … wait for it … American diversity.

Coexist! Unless your politics don’t match his stereotype. In that case, shaddup, he explained.

Ben Carson Says He Will Probably Run For President

Dr. Ben Carson, the author and retired neurosurgeon, says there is a good chance he will run for the Republican presidential nomination in 2016.

“I think the chances are reasonably good of that happening. I’m waiting obviously for a few more months. I want to make sure that it is clearly something my fellow Americans want me to do and I’m also waiting to see what the results are in November,” Carson told conservative talk radio host Hugh Hewitt on his program Monday.

“If the people do indicate that they truly do want a nation that is for, of, and by the people then I along with what I hope will be many other people will be willing to give it everything we possibly have,” Carson added.

Carson was appearing to promote his new e-book One Vote.

This Guy’s Wife Got Cancer, So He Did Something Unforgettable. The Last 3 Photos Destroyed Me.

The first time photographer Angelo Merendino met Jennifer, he knew she was the one. They fell in love and got married in New York’s Central Park, surrounded by family, friends, and loved ones.

Five months later Jen was diagnosed with breast cancer. From Angelo’s blog: “I remember the exact moment…Jen’s voice and the numb feeling that enveloped me. That feeling has never left. I’ll also never forget how we looked into each other’s eyes and held each other’s hands. ‘We are together, we’ll be ok.'”

Throughout her battle, Angelo decided to photograph it. He wanted to humanize  the face of cancer on the face of his wife. The photos speak for themselves.

Angelo and Jennifer’s story is tragic, but it’s in the face of a tragedy such as this that we rise above. In Angelo’s case, he has started an organization to help women with their financial struggles during their trials with breast cancer.

You can get that and much more at Angelo’s blog: http://mywifesfightwithbreastcancer.com/

Please share this story with everyone you know. Thank you.

Lackluster crowds for Obama campaign events

http://twitter.com/#!/ByronYork/status/198889914706829312

Saturday was the first official day of campaign speeches for President Obama. He spoke to Ohio State University students before traveling to Virginia for an event. One of the things that made his 2008 campaign so successful was the enormity of each crowd he spoke to. If today is an indication, those attendance numbers will drop significantly this time around.

RT @MarkLandler: Obama in Columbus. Crowd count: 14,000. Arena capacity: 18,300.
