"A billboard created by an Iowa tea party group comparing President Barack Obama to Adolf Hitler and Vladimir Lenin has been removed." Thank God.

Some tea party members criticized the sign as well they should. Perhaps as we get further removed from the evil atrocities of Hitler during WWII people may think it okay to compare someone to Hitler. I think it is totally reprehensible no matter your politics or the person(s) involved to compare someone to Hitler.

It is a savage slanderous attack which has no justification. It destroys any positive images of the people making the attack - in this case the Tea Party, and shows them as being small minded angry bigoted ugly rednecks. You don't have to be from the south to be a redneck.

CBS News has an article that starts "White House spokesman Robert Gibbs on Tuesday walked back earlier statements that Republicans could "no doubt" win control of the House this November..." What is "walked back." Do they mean he retracted his statement? He didn't, in fact he just said he "stated the obvious" but felt democrats would retain majority.

You can say he qualified his statement but "Walked back?" Stephanie Condon wrote the article so we can expect great things from her - she might end up being another talking head. She should, however, change her name to condom.
