Their has been a lot of buzz the last few days over Ann Coulter calling John Edwards a “faggot”. I chose not to cover it because I feel that the more publicity Coulter gets, the more fuel she has for her outlandish comments. Today I had to cave because of Keith Olbermann, who took time […]
This is hilarious. The right-wing site olbermannwatch.com has officially shut down. It says this on their front page: There is no disguising the fact that we have been extremely unhappy with the recent decision of NBC Universal to not only retain Keith Olbermann for four more years but to elevate him in an unprecedented fashion.

Investigators identified Chad Castagana, 39, of Woodland Hills, California, as the person suspected of sending more than […]
In the last decade we have seen our political climate severely changed by the Christian right. Motivating them has been the greatest accomplishment that the Republicans have pulled off. During the 1994 Republican take over of Congress, Newt Gingrich helped construct this new powerful base. While the now infamous “Contract with America” did not specifically […]
There is no doubt that people are predicting an October Surprise this year. I have heard numerous ideas of what it might be ranging from the capture or killing of Osama to a drastic decrease in gas prices.
