Friday's fish fry

Only time for a few items today, but here goes...

CONSERVATIVES WIN ANOTHER ONE:
President Obama backtracks today concerning his criticism of the police who arrested Henry Louis Gates. About time...

WHILE DEMOCRATS STRUGGLE:
Democrats in Washington struggle to come to an agreement on health care legislation:
"Health care negotiations among Democratic leaders and conservative so-called Blue Dog Democrats have reached an impasse, according to members of Congress on both sides of the talks. As a result, Democratic leaders are moving towards bypassing conservatives in their own party and holding a House health care vote over their objections."

Good luck with that...

In baseball diary news, the Tigers' offense is pathetic again yesterday, losing yet again to Seattle 2-1--the 4th time in 5 games the Tigers have lost by that score.
