Pat Garofalo, ThinkProgress: "2012 presidential hopeful Tim Pawlenty (R) yesterday laid out his economic 'plan,' which is based around huge tax cuts that Pawlenty claims will spark a decade of 5 percent GDP growth, even though growth staying at that rate for that long has literally never occurred in America. As Michael Linden noted, Pawlenty's tax plan would cost $7.8 trillion over ten years, triple the size of the Bush tax cuts. During his speech introducing the plan, Pawlenty excoriated President Obama as 'a champion practitioner of class warfare.' 'I come from a working class background. I didn't grow up with wealth. But I've never resented those who have it,' Pawlenty said. But as a new analysis from Citizens for Tax Justice shows, in addition to being outrageously expensive, Pawlenty's tax plan is based on the Republican brand of class warfare - giving millionaires huge tax breaks."

Gingrich Senior Campaign Staff Resigns
Gingrich Senior Campaign Staff Resigns
Trip Gabriel and Jeff Zeleny, The New York Times News Service: "Newt Gingrich's campaign manager and a half-dozen senior advisers resigned on Thursday, two aides said, dealing a significant setback to his bid to seek the Republican presidential nomination and severely complicating his plan to make a political comeback. The campaign manager, Rob Johnson, along with longtime spokesman Rick Tyler and advisers in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina, joined together to step down after a period of deep internal disagreements about the direction of the campaign. Mr. Gingrich, a former House speaker who has been fighting to regain his political footing after a rough campaign roll out last month, had been absent from the campaign trail for about two weeks on what aides had described as a pre-planned vacation. He made his first return to the campaign trail on Wednesday in New Hampshire, one day before the resignations were announced."

100 Percent Scared:
How the National Security Complex Grows on Terrorism Fears
Tom Engelhardt, TomDispatch: "Here, then, is one of the strange, if less explored, phenomena of our post-9/11 American age: in only one area of life are Americans officially considered 100% scared, and so 100% in need of protection, and that's when it comes to terrorism. For an E. coli strain that could pose serious dangers, were it to arrive here, there is no uproar. No screaming headlines highlight special demands that more money be poured into food safety; no instant plans have been rushed into place to review meat and vegetable security procedures; no one has been urging that a Global War on Food-Borne Illnesses be launched. In fact, at this moment, six strains of E. coli that do cause illness in this country remain unregulated. Department of Agriculture proposals to deal with them are 'stalled' at the Office of Management and Budget. Meanwhile, the super-toxic E. coli strain that appeared in Europe remains officially unregulated here. On the other hand, send any goofus America-bound on a plane with any kind of idiotic device, and the politicians, the media, and the public promptly act as if - and it's you I'm addressing, Chicken Little - the sky were falling or civilization itself were at risk."
