The internet part of this is really infuriating: * That ISPs have to proactively police copyright on user-contributed material. This means that it will be impossible to run a service like Flickr or YouTube […]

Biden Less Popular Than Cheney?

Misc

That’s the meme the wingnuts are trying to spin right now, following the lead of Byron York: Vice President Joe Biden’s favorable rating has fallen to 42 percent in a new Gallup poll, down from a high of 59 percent just after last year’s election.

No Public Option?

Misc

That’s the news catching on like wildfire this morning – that President Obama has dropped his support for a public option in the healthcare bill.

Misc

A Pro-Life Country?

Misc

Gallup released a poll today that the right is in love with: A new Gallup Poll, conducted May 7-10, finds 51% of Americans calling themselves “pro-life” on the issue of abortion and 42% “pro-choice.” This is the first time a majority of U.S. adults have identified themselves as pro-life since Gallup began asking this question […]

Because All Politics Are Local

Misc

The fact that the stimulus isn’t seeing any Republican votes in the House and only three in the Senate isn’t a sign that it’s a bad bill, it’s a sign that it’s something against a far-right ideology that has plagued this country for too long. A perfect example of this is from the mouth of […]

Pope Ahmajinidad

Misc

Pope Benedict tries to deepen his ties with Nazi-Germany: The Vatican stirred a diplomatic maelstrom yesterday when it announced that it had lifted the excommunication of four rebel bishops, including the British Holocaust-denier Richard Williamson. The decree repealing the 20-year-old Vatican punishment, imposed after the traditionalist French Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre consecrated the four as bishops […]
