Huffington Post: Colbert Blasts Study Blaming Immigrants For Global Warming (VIDEO)

Posted: 26 Apr 2012 10:06 AM PDT

Stephen Colbert may not believe in global warming, but a new argument is slowly opening his eyes: That the cause of global warming is actually immigration. A new ad running on news channels including MSNBC makes the claim that the real cause of climate change is citizens coming to America from other countries.

But Stephen sees this new theory as something that can heal the divide between the right and left. "Saving the planet by demonizing immigrants gives liberals and conservatives something they can do together," he said.

Of course, the study was championed by the Center for Immigration Studies, whose founder is a well-known white nationalist. But don't let that get in the way of the partisan bonding it's sure to inspire.

Huffington Post: Nancy Pelosi Ties 'War On Women' To Student Loan Debate

Posted: 26 Apr 2012 10:06 AM PDT

WASHINGTON -- Congressional Democratic leaders have found another venue to hit Republicans for their so-called war on women: the debate over student loan costs.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Thursday slammed Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) for proposing on Wednesday to keep down the costs of student loan interest rates by pulling money from what he called "one of the slush funds in the president's health care law." He was referring to the Prevention and Public Health Fund, which contains billions of dollars aimed at encouraging people to take better care of themselves, thereby saving money down the road.

Student loan rates are set to double to 6.8 percent in July. Democrats have proposed covering the estimated $6 billion cost by closing a tax loophole that lets certain wealthy people avoid paying Medicare taxes, while Republicans have settled on nixing the preventative health fund. The House is set to vote on the GOP plan on Friday. Democratic leaders are whipping their members to oppose it.
