Or as I will now refer to it as – the Boehner tax: Section 500B – New 10% tax on indoor tanning! Note, this REPLACES the “botax” on elective cosmetic surgery contained in the underlying bill. This is actually a way of sticking it to the working class once again. Tanning beds get most of […]
I never really liked Dylan when he was a guest on Morning Joe and kind of turned my nose at the thought of him having his own show. Damn I was wrong. He now has the only cable news show I try and watch everyday (I don’t even do that for Olbermann or Maddow). One […]
This is something me and a lot of the opposing factors to the latest HCR bill saw coming the other night when Democrats caved to Lieberman: Nelson’s key points: Asked if he would vote for cloture even if his initiative to restrict abortion were adopted, Nelson flatly said “no.” Nelson not only said a vote […]

Late into the night, Democrats emerged from a huddle […]
One thing I keep hearing when it comes to support of HCR is that we can pass this bill now and fix it later. How often does that scenario play out in our Congress? Let’s keep with the subject of health care and something that currently effects millions of seniors every year – the doughnut […]
Chris Matthews just said people who don’t like this crap health care bill are not real Democrats – they are netroots. He then went on to accuse us of not voting our whole lives or doing anything for the party. Fuck you, you fat pompous ass hole. I have spent the last 22 years of […]
Al Franken has shown the most balls we have seen from Democrats in a long time, and today was no exception. Here is Al shutting up Joe Lieberman, which then enraged McCain:
Via a tweet by Chris Cillizza If this sticks then they have to pickup at least one Republican UPDATE: Here’s the video:
Of course his friends are Conservatives like American Future Fund, which is airing this new ad in Connecticut. Can the Democrats stop pretending that Joe Lieberman is their friend now? Seriously?
