Rep. Steve King is trying to justify the attack on the IRS in a discussion with Think Progress: TP: Do you think this attack, this terrorist attack, was motivated at all by a lot of the anti-tax rhetoric that’s popular in America right now? KING: I think if we’d abolished the IRS back when I […]
In an op-ed today, John Kerry takes on the useless embargo we have against Cuba: For nearly 20 years after the fall of Saigon, the Vietnam War took a less bloody but equally hostile form. The United States and Vietnam had no diplomatic relations. Vietnamese assets were frozen. Trade was embargoed. But in 1995 the […]
This morning Michael Steele was quick to seize on any chance of slamming President Obama’s winning of the Nobel Peace Prize and even used it to drudge up a very old meme – the celebrity mantra: “The real question Americans are asking is, ‘What has President Obama actually accomplished?’ It is unfortunate that the president’s […]
Ann Coulter publicly announced on Fox News that Rahm Emanuel’s brother is on her “death list”. Why is she not in cuffs right now? Seriously – when she left Fox studios the police should have been sitting there to arrest her. That’s what happens when a child is discovered to have a “death list” at […]

This is what we have been warning about on the left; that Sarah Palin’s increasingly dangerous rhetoric was putting Obama at danger. Well it looks like the Secret Service also agrees with us: The Republican vice presidential candidate attracted criticism for accusing Mr Obama of “palling around with terrorists”, citing his association with the sixties […]
This is very disturbing from Newsweek: The Obama campaign was provided with reports from the Secret Service showing a sharp and disturbing increase in threats to Obama in September and early October, at the same time that many crowds at Palin rallies became more frenzied. Michelle Obama was shaken by the vituperative crowds and the […]
I mentioned the other day that if John McCain didn’t come out and strongly denounce the actions of his supporters with their racist chants and threats of violence that he would be remembered as an extreme racist, regardless of the outcome next week. So far McCain hasn’t done anything and today the rhetoric of hate […]
Yesterday Sarah Palin tried to divide this country even more with her idiotic rhetoric of divisiveness. She declared how she liked being in “pro-America areas of this great nation”.
