Last night the New York Times published a late night bombshell: Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates has warned in a secret three-page memorandum to top White House officials that the United States does not have an effective long-range policy for dealing with Iran’s steady progress toward nuclear capability, according to government officials familiar with the […]
Writing in an op-ed in today’s Mooney Times, Jeffery Kuhner floats the idea of impeaching President Obama if health care reform passes. His argument is the same old strawman we have been hearing all week – the “deem and pass” of the House of Representative: Many Democrats could claim they opposed the Senate bill while […]
John McCain blasted off a campaign email last night that stated the following: During his first year in office, President Obama and Congressional Democrats have amassed a $12.4 trillion deficit that is growing each day. A trillion dollars a month? Wow that’s amazing for a party that hasn’t accomplished that much due to Republican obstructionism. […]
Chuck Todd reported on MSNBC this morning that President Obama called former President George W. Bush last night and asked him to help former President Clinton with Haiti, much the same way his father helped Clinton. Bush has said he will do “whatever is necessary”. In a time when our nations is so polarized, it’s […]
It’s time for Democrats who distrust President Bush to acknowledge that he will be the commander in chief for three more critical years and that in matters of war we undermine presidential credibility at our nation’s peril. –Joe “the faux” Lieberman in 2005.

Here is an interesting fact the internet has pulled up. On December 28, 2009, President Obama made his first public comments about the attempted bombing on Christmas day – 3 days after the incident. On December 28, 2001, President Bush made his first public comments about Richard Reid’s failed bombing attempt. That was 7 days […]
Another great quote and something a lot of us on the left have been saying all along: “It’s time for the president to get his hands dirty,” Representative Anthony Weiner, Democrat of New York, said in a statement this week. “Some of us have compromised our compromised compromise. We need the president to stand up […]
The website defendglenn.com has been fighting back against the boycotts of Glenn Beck. The mission statement of their site even states as much in rather bold terms: Ironically it turns out that their site was actually pushing a lie, not about Glenn Beck, but about Color of Change: DefendGlenn.com on several occasions inaccurately reported that […]
Image by thisisbossi via Flickr Here is a disturbing new trend appearing in America: There’s a new slogan making its way onto car bumpers and across the Internet. It reads simply: “Pray for Obama: Psalm 109:8” A nice sentiment? Maybe not. The psalm reads, “Let his days be few; and let another take his office.” […]
And they came out already, starting with Hannity, who is claiming that President Obama knew about Maj. Hasan. As Cesca reminds us: After 9/11, everyone — everyone — supported President Bush. But it’s clear that the wingnuts and Republicans will never give our current president the same deference. But what about George Bush – did […]
