I was just watching Bill Maher and they were talking about the Joe Sestak deal. The talk was about how the right wants to impeach President Obama over this, despite nothing illegal being done. Patrick Ruffini, a former Bush adviser, defended this by saying “Obama promised not to do this stuff”, to which Jonathon Alter […]
Welcome back to the 90s: Rep. Darrell Issa is not working from a position of strength. As the ranking Republican on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, Issa wants to exercise some, well, oversight when it comes to the Obama administration’s controversial decision to transfer control of the Census Bureau from professionals at the […]
Oh my – so Obama was interviewed by prosecutors last week about the Blago scandal. We found out yesterday in the released report from the transition team. Since the report showed no improper contact, the idiots on the right have to make up some new scandal. Perhaps Hugh Hewitt can be charged with this crusade: […]
Oh this is just a gem: Rove, a former top White House adviser to President Bush, said on Fox News, “[Obama] should have, right from the beginning, been more forthcoming.” The same Karl Rove who insisted the President never had to disclose anything – rather it was on the outing of a CIA agent, lying […]
Remember a couple of months ago when the wingnuts were all speculating that Obama’s birth certificate he released was a fake? They took to their special “Photoshop forensics” to try and prove Obama was lying. Well the tinfoil hat brigade has been foiled again. Factcheck.org has actually seen the birth certificate and can verify it’s […]
Watching Bush’s press conference and it’s obvious he is on edge, but still he lies like crazy. Yesterday we found out he has been lying to this country and the world about Iran’s nuclear weapons program. He is saying that this changes nothing in his assertions because they had a program. Catch that – they […]
Even after Scooter got his “get out of jail free” card from Bush, the case continues to get more interesting. Scott McClellan is set to have his memoirs hit the shelves in April and it includes juicy information like this: “I had unknowingly passed along false information. And five of the highest ranking officials in […]
Not a pardon, but rather he commuted the sentence. That means no jail for Scooter. Bush says he felt the punishment was too harsh. So is that saying that lying about a blow job is a worse crime than lying under oath regarding the outing of a CIA agent? It appears so. Bush just handed […]
When a company continues to fail miserably the answer is not to fire all the employees, but rather the CEO. If a team goes on a multi-season losing streak, the players aren’t all replaced, but rather the coach. So why doesn’t the same apply to the White House? In the past we have seen great […]
CNN just reported that White House spokesperson, Dana Perino, was asked about Harry Reid’s statement. She quickly turned it around to say that the “Democrats will use this for politics”. I guess it was fine and dandy for the Republicans to use a blow job for politics in the Clinton years, but when it comes […]
