In U.S. news -- another round in the debt debate leads Speaker of the House John Boehner back to his conservative corner, but the panel on Morning Joe points out -- his own party is struggling to support his solution.
BUCHANAN: “This game is up there in Harry Reid's corner and Boehner’s. Boehner's got a problem. They have to get something together today and move it closer to the Tea Party, get the party united and roll it to Harry Reid.”
SCARBOROUGH: “We are a week away from a catastrophic debate. Anybody that doesn't believe a default will cause an economic crash and there are a few people out there. Not only are they unfit to serve in congress, but they are unfit to handle lawn equipment.”
The United States Postal Service announced Tuesday it will be closing almost 3700 offices across the nation to cut spending. On CNN Jack Cafferty and his viewers sound-off on the service that solely profits from stamps and postage..
“The move shouldn't come as a surprise. Postal system has been bleeding cash for years. Volume of mail down in the past years. More and more Americans send e-mails and pay their bills online... ‘I don't use the post office often, but it's convenient to thousands close, it will make it difficult for folks like me to use them as needed. I would rather spend $1 for a postcard than to see a post office close.’”
In world news -- a Taliban suicide strike leaves the mayor of Kandahar dead. Fox News explains how the mayor’s death is a significant loss to Afghan President Hamid Karzai.
“You’re looking at video from the scene where apparently he detonated explosives hidden in his turban. He's the latest ranking official there. He was considered a replacement for Hamid Karzai's half brother who was gunned down two weeks ago.”
Still in world news -- torrential rains have triggered landslides in South Korea. The flooding has killed at least 32 people, more than half were from the capital city of Seoul. ABC News has the video.
“This in South Korea where the heaviest downpours in a century have triggered massive mudslides, killing nearly two dozen people. 15 Inches of rain in 1 day turned streets in to rivers. Flooding at least 800 houses and another 10 inches could fall before Friday”
In tech news -- Fox is the latest network to stash its online content behind an online paywall.
The Wall Street Journal reports episodes of Glee, Family Guy, and other Fox shows will no longer be available for streaming on the network’s website or Hulu -- until eight days after they debut. In order to get their favorite shows sooner, viewers will have to prove they subscribe to a cable, satellite, or Hulu service. The Journal suggests the wall was designed to keep online viewers from cutting their cable and balance the ‘rising consumption’ of online video.
