There’s a lot of talk right now about earmarks. The Tea Party/GOP candidates, who campaigned heavily on getting rid of things like earmarks, have now reversed their positions since winning their elections. Examples of this can be seen in John Boehner and Rand Paul. But what about the non-Congressional supporters of the Tea Party/GOP? Well […]
And the wingnuts all get it wrong. It wasn’t some “leftist plot” or outsiders involved: A volunteer with Rand Paul’s Senate campaign has admitted to placing his shoe firmly on the face of a MoveOn.org volunteer outside a Senate debate on Monday night, but insisted that the camera angle of the footage that captured the […]
From HuffPo: Polish President Lech Kaczynski and some of the country’s highest military and civilian leaders died on Saturday when the presidential plane crashed as it came in for a landing in thick fog in western Russia, killing 96, officials said. [SNIP] Russia’s Emergency Ministry said there were 96 dead, 88 part of a Polish […]
From the HuffPo: In a video obtained by Al Jazeera and broadcast Monday, Lieutenant-Colonel Gary Hensley, the chief of the US military chaplains in Afghanistan, is seen telling soldiers that as followers of Jesus Christ, they all have a responsibility “to be witnesses for him.” “The special forces guys – they hunt men basically.

Fox has launched a new site called “The Fox Nation”. It’s supposed to be their counter to sites like HuffPo. So how does this site debut? Yup – They push the wingnut conspiracy of the day! Brand new site, same old mis-information.
Following up on my post about Andy Card demanding Obama “respect the Oval Office” and where a suit jacket at all times, I have no found this picture via HuffPo: Maybe Andy should have spent time making the same demands of his former boss, instead of running out to get him cheeseburgers. But Bush isn’t […]
Matt Drudge will never change, and is still at it when it comes to trying to misinterpret headlines into something that might enrage the right wing. Here’s the latest example: So HuffPo is getting a “bailout”? Is she part of the financial sector or auto industry? The answer to both is of course “no”. Instead […]
Chris Matthews just can’t help himself when it comes to some good old Hillary bashing: An avowed Clinton lover who was sitting next to Matthews reports: “He was in business class wearing a red baseball hat that said Penn on the back, and the fat [bleep] fell asleep on the train and snored with his […]
Wow did McCain bomb tonight. Holy shit! HuffPo has the rundown of the news networks, who all gave it to Obama (even FOX). Instead of spending time writing out my words on this, I am going to let Andrew Sullivan speak for me: This was, I think, a mauling: a devastating and possibly electorally fatal […]
The proof is in his new ad: The legislation Obama sponsored? A bill to teach children about inappropriate touching. Yes – telling kindergartners to not let their parents or dirty neighbor touch them wrong. More at HuffPo. (And of course McCain wouldn’t want legislation like this. It might hurt his friends like Mark Foley)
