Obama to 'block the shot' Thursday plus; a GOP congressional hit on Michelle?
After a frank meeting with Rupe Murdoch, Barack Obama will break his Fox boycott Thursday, appearing on "The O'Reilly Factor."

Meanwhile, is the GOP trying to manufacture a scandal about Michelle Obama to trump the Palin drama?
The ranking Republican on the Senate Finance Committee is seeking information from the nonprofit University of Chicago Medical Center about jobs held by Sen. Barack Obama's wife and one of the senator's best friends.

Sen. Charles E. Grassley of Iowa on Friday sent the center a letter saying he was "troubled" by recent news reports about the hospital's efforts to steer patients with non-urgent complaints away from the center's emergency room to local clinics. Michelle Obama was a key figure behind the initiative.

The letter, which Grassley released to the public yesterday, does not directly mention the Democratic presidential nominee, his wife or his campaign. Grassley asked for financial data, board minutes and other documents related to hiring, job promotion, business contracting and care for the poor.

Are taxpayer dollars being spent in pursuit of politics? Look into it, Dems...
