Former Presidential candidate Michele Bachmann has given up her hopeless crusade to win the White House, but she doubled down in the run up to the Iowa caucuses by making sure conservative Hawkeye voters know that she hates gays more than all of the other candidates.

At a stop in Council Bluffs, IA she told supporters that she’s “100% on the side of life,” which is Tea Party dog whistle talk for “I love zygotes so much and have never ovulated.” But she really dug in on the issue of gay rights.

A new special task force to investigate and prosecute those responsible for bad mortgages during the housing boom will be part of President Obama’s 2012 agenda.
Obama announced Tuesday that he’s asked the Justice Department to create a special unit of prosecutors and state attorneys general to investigateg abusive lending and packaging of risky mortgages that led to the housing crisis. And he’s tapped an avowed Wall Street enemy, New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, to help run the crime unit, according to a White House official.

And then there are all those rumoured guest stars, including a couple of late-breaking additions – provided you believe whatever will.i.am tells you.
In an interview with radio station Capital FM, the Black Eyed Pea said LMFAO will be shuffling to Indianapolis for Super Bowl Sunday. “I’m going to the Super Bowl this year to see my group LMFAO perform with Madonna,” will said in the interview.
