The disturbing thoughts of some in uniform: A D.C. police officer who worked as a motorcycle escort for White House officials and other dignitaries was moved to administrative duty Wednesday after he allegedly was overheard making threatening comments toward Michelle Obama, according to several police officials. The police department’s Internal Affairs Division is investigating the […]
Republicans love to insist that people need to take “personal responsibility” for everything. It’s one of their flagstone attacks against things like consumer protection, health insurance reform and any of number of social services. Yet when it comes to Republicans themselves, responsibility is something they never want to take. That also includes Mitt Romney, who […]
In case you just awoke from a coma, yesterday Mitt Romney addressed the NAACP. During that address he vowed to “repeal Obamacare”. Needless to say this was met with boos from the crowd. After a day of explaining it away and trying to twist around what happened, last night Romney offered this: ROMNEY: Remind them […]
As I brought up earlier, if Mitt Romney did in fact leave Bain in 1999, then why were documents filed with the SEC saying he was there until 2002?

Today President Obama will push for letting the Bush tax cuts for those making over $250,000/year expire. Before he even addressed his plan. Mitt Romney has already fired back with this: President Obama’s response to even more bad economic news is a massive tax increase. It just proves again that the President doesn’t have a […]
Last month a $50,000 per couple fundraiser was held in Hollywood for Barack Obama. The right went crazy, decrying him as an “elitist”. If $50,0000 per couple makes one an elitist, what does $75,000 per couple make one? An extremist elitist? Perhaps we should ask Mitt Romney, who is doing just that. At the evening […]
Richard Posner, a Reagan nominated judge who sits on the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals, told NPR, “I’ve become less conservative since the Republican Party started becoming goofy”.

At a campaign event here in Ohio a supporter of Mitt “no plans” Romney decided that the first amendment should only apply to certain people: Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney sent two GOP heavyweights to northern Ohio Thursday to beat President Barack Obama’s similar bus tour to the punch.
