Afghanistan; Healthcare; Spending & Tea Party; Financial Commission

A federal judged ruled the health insurance purchase mandate to be unconstitutional. The lame-duck Congress tries for an omnibus spending bill and the Tea Party dunked it. The Financial Commission has split along party lines. The GOP blames government, the Democrats blame Wall Street. Plus, the winners of the "rename the Center" contest.
