Chrysler’s Fall May Help Administration Reshape G.M.
International Herlad Tribune
Fresh from pushing Chrysler into bankruptcy, President Obama and his economic team are hoping that the hard line they took last week gives them leverage to force huge changes in General Motors, a far larger and more complex company.
A Case Study in Unforeseen Legal Views
Wall Street Journal
Supreme Court Justice David Souter is the conservative jurist who wasn't -- and his legacy is a cautionary tale for any president who has hopes of controlling the Supreme Court's bent.
Supreme Court Justice Souter to retire at end of term
Washington Times
Supreme Court Justice David H. Souter has informed the White House he plans to retire at the end of the session in June, providing President Barack Obama his first opening to nominate his own choice to the high court.
Ten picks for Obama's Supreme Court
With as many as three justices expected to retire, Obama may have the opportunity to reshape the conservative-leaning court. Our experts eye the candidates.
Obama sows seeds of demise
Dick Morris
When the Obama administration crashes and burns, with approval ratings that fall through the floor, political scientists can trace its demise to its first hundred days. While Americans are careful not to consign a presidency they desperately need to succeed to the dustbin of history, the fact is that this president has moved — on issue after issue — in precisely the opposite direction of what the people want him to do.
U.S. Senate joins House in backing $3.4 trillion budget
Boston Globe
The Democratic-controlled U.S. Senate on Wednesday voted to approve the $3.4 trillion fiscal 2010 budget compromise, wrapping up a big political victory for President Barack Obama on his 100th day in office. With no Republican support, the Senate voted 53-43 for the budget which sets parameters for spending and tax legislation for the upcoming fiscal year that begins October 1. The House of Representatives earlier on Wednesday approved the budget also on a party-line vote.
Budget boosts health care; GOP says no
Politico
Congress’ new five-year budget plan, approved Wednesday, gives President Barack Obama a big leg up toward health care reform but could severely crimp the rest of his domestic agenda unless new savings and revenues are found.
Specter: 'Prospects for Winning a Republican Primary Are Bleak'
ABC
Sen. Arlen Specter stunned both parties on Capitol Hill today when he announced he would switch his party allegiance to Democrat after 42 years as a Republican, including 28 as a senator from Pennsylvania.
GOP's Hopes Bloom Outside D.C.
Wall Street Journal
In a week when Washington is obsessed with the arrival of the 100-day milestone in President Barack Obama's presidency, it's easy to forget that, for the opposition Republicans, the crucial political testing ground likely doesn't lie in the nation's capital at all.
Top U.S. military official 'alarmed' over Pakistan
CNN
Adm. Michael Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, is "very alarmed by the growing extremist threat in Pakistan and remains frustrated particularly by the political leadership's inability to confront that threat," his spokesman said Monday.
Telling the Truth
Let the hearings begin!
Some Democrats, from the White House on down, are pushing the idea of a "truth commission," à la South Africa, to deal with the "harsh measures" used by the Bush administration in interrogating al Qaeda detainees. Good. Let's have lots of truthtelling. Please bring it on.
April 2009 News Archives
Week of April 21st
In GOP base, a 'rebellion brewing'
Politico
A quick tour through the week’s headlines suggests the Republican Party is beginning to come to terms with the last election and that consensus is emerging among GOP elites that the party needs to move away from discordant social issues.
On the Hill, battle on war spending looms
Washington Times
President Obama's $83.4 billion war-spending bill is headed for an unexpectedly tough time on Capitol Hill, where Republicans are scrutinizing the funding priorities and rank-and-file Democrats want to include performance benchmarks for the Afghanistan mission.

What is Torture?
Reuters
Reuters' Jon Decker discusses the politics concerning the debate over harsh interrogation techniques carried out on detained terror suspects.
Gingrich, provocateur, returns
Politico
The old Newt, it seems, is back.
Not the wonky party eminence who talks about a 21st-century air traffic control system or health information technology or an expanded electric power grid. Rather, it’s the voluble provocateur who’s returned, the guy who throws lightning bolts across the partisan divide.
Obama's Growing Dilemma on Torture Prosecution
Time
Less than a day after President Barack Obama told CIA employees in person that he didn't support prosecuting them for the harsh interrogations of terrorism suspects, he left open the possibility that those who drafted the legal opinions justifying such questionable techniques could end up facing charges.
U.S. Said to Seek a Chrysler Plan for Bankruptcy
International Herald Tribune
The Treasury Department is directing Chrysler to prepare a Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing as soon as next week, people with direct knowledge of the talks said Thursday. The company faces a deadline of April 30 to come up with a viable business plan supported by its creditors, the United Automobile Workers union, and Fiat, the Italian car company that wants to acquire a stake in Chrysler.
GM Is Becoming a Royal Debacle
Wall Street Journal
It's good to be the king -- until you start tripping over your own robe. So King Barack the Mild is finding as he tries to dictate the terms of what amounts to an out-of-court bankruptcy for Chrysler and GM. He wants Chrysler's secured lenders to give up their right to nearly full recovery in a bankruptcy in return for 15 cents on the dollar. They'd be crazy to do so, of course, except that these banks also happen to be beholden to the administration for TARP money.
Dems push for torture hearings, ignoring Obama
NY Times
Brushing aside the president's suggestions, congressional Democrats pushed ahead firmly on Wednesday toward investigations into the Bush administration's harsh interrogation of terror suspects including hundreds of instances of waterboarding and other abusive practices.
Ranking Senate Partisans
The Hill
The Hill asked all 99 seated senators which member of the opposing party they most enjoyed partnering with on legislation. The senators were also quizzed (on a not-for-attribution basis) about their least favorite.
Florida's in spotlight with open Senate seat
Washington Times
Heads up, political junkies — Florida's back. With an open Senate seat, a possible open governor's spot and a new Cuba policy from the White House, the home of the hanging chad is once again pushing itself into the political limelight as the 2010 election season gears up.
Obama's new Cuba policy
Politico
President Barack Obama said Sunday that America’s 48-year economic
embargo of Cuba had failed to bring change to the island, and that he
hoped the country would move towards embracing democratic values,
including freedom of speech and religion, on the path towards launching
better relations with the United States.
Clinton's massive campaign debt seems to pose a plethora of questions of repayment options
TIME
All
presidential campaigns end, one way or another, but the financial debt
from them has a way of living on — especially for a candidate who
loses. And while it wouldn't be seemly for a Secretary of State to be out there personally collecting checks on the rubber-chicken
circuit, Hillary Clinton is lucky enough to have some big names willing
to do something close to that on her behalf.
