On April 27, 2010 [[Gordon Brown]], prime minister of the [[United Kingdom]], was confronted by an elderly Gillian Duffy, 65, and a lifelong member of the [[Labour Party]].  Her question had to do with the massive influx of immigrants to her hometown of Rochdale, the high [[tax]]ation, the massive British [[national debt]], her disappointment in her party, and she wanted answers as to why.  After the standard liberal answers, Brown got into his car and - ''forgetting he had a microphone on, which was still recording'' - talked to his aide: ''"That was a disaster...should never have put me with that woman. Whose idea was that?...she was just a sort of bigoted woman who said she used to be Labour."''  Brown was apologetic almost as immediately as word of his gaffe leaked to the press,<ref>http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/election/article-1269486/Election-2010-Gordon-Browns-bigoted-woman-insult-Gillian-Duffy.html</ref> but the damage was done: Brown's Labour Party lost the election and he resigned from office.<ref>http://www1.voanews.com/english/news/europe/Brown-to-Resign-British-Labor-Party-Leadership-93598409.html</ref>

The reporter at [[CBS]] affiliate KTVA in [[Alaska]] left a message in late October, 2010 with staffers of [[Republican]] Senate candidate [[Joe Miller]], "hoping" for an interview.  Apparently not familiar with the operation of his [[iPhone]] - namely the "on/off" button - he left it on, allowing Miller's spokesperson, Randy DeSoto, to leave a full transcript of a plot to insert a convicted child molester, or, failing that, create an incident of violence, inside of a Miller rally.<ref>http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=221973</ref><ref>http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/10/31/miller-campaign-claims-tape-shows-reporters-trying-connect-child-molesters/</ref>

====Britain's wind farms vs. reality====

[[Great Britain]] decided to "go green," and built 3,000 wind turbines, with the goal of 10,000 by 2020 to produce as much as thirty percent of energy needs; this would also be in conjunction with the closing of gas and [[coal]]-fired power stations and coal mines.  As of the winter of 2010-11, one third of these turbines are shut down due to a lack of wind; the remainder are producing a mere 1.8 percent of the nation's electric needs.  The result: higher prices for the importation of [[oil]] and coal, and a large segment of the public forced to go either on reduced energy consumption or without energy at all, and this during one of the coldest winters on record.<ref>http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/energy/windpower/8234616/Wind-farms-becalmed-just-when-needed-the-most.html</ref>
