Yesterday the right-wing blogosphere erupted with posts of the greatest scandal of the 21st century: Last Thursday evening at Montclair State University, with a video camera rolling, Bill Ayers volunteered that yes indeed he had written the acclaimed Barack Obama memoir, Dreams from My Father. Unprompted, Ayers also noted that while Dreams deserves its praise, […]
Instead of looking at themselves, the right continues their path of projection in blaming everyone else for their rapid fall from power. Here is John Hawkins blogging at Pajamas Media: Too often today, liberals are using below-the-belt tactics against conservatives and paying no price whatsoever. Meanwhile, those on the right like to pat themselves on […]
Sarah Palin talked a lot about education, but let’s look at her own state for some clarification: Alaska’s dropout rate, at 8 percent, was double the national average in the 2005-2006 school year, according to the latest figures available from the U.S. Department of Education. 38 percent of today’s ninth-graders will have no high school […]

A Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey found that 50% believe talk of that issue has hurt McCain’s […]
It amazes me hearing Republicans go after John Lewis for his statement yesterday. His statement was 100% true. Republicans have been pushing the race card without actually saying it. What Republicans are trying to do though is say they aren’t pushing race as a black and white issue. Instead they are pushing race as an […]
That’s how long their new Ayers ad is and now we have video: BarbinMD calls McCain out on this as being a “coward”: McCain didn’t have the guts to mention Ayers name while face-to-face with Obama, instead waiting until he was safely back in his cocoon of race-baiting rallies and Fox News interviews before going […]
