Thankfully Democrats aren’t going to take the NRCC’s latest misogynistic attack on Speaker Pelosi lying down. Here is what Debbie Wasserman Schultz had to say about the NRCC ad saying General McChrystal needed to put Pelosi “in her place”. “It’s evidence they long for the days when a woman’s place was in the kitchen. Now […]
It looks like there is some bigger troubles brewing inside the Republican ranks: GOP leaders, in a private meeting last month, delivered a blunt and at times heated message to RNC Chairman Michael Steele: quit meddling in policy. The plea was made during what was supposed to be a routine discussion about polling matters and […]
For months David Frum has been outspoken when it comes to denouncing the craziness on the right. Here is part of an article in today’s L.A. Times: They are “wild accusations and the paranoid delusions coming from the fever swamps,” said David Frum, a conservative author and speechwriter for President George W. Bush who is […]
Yesterday a right wing extremist shoots and kills a doctor who provides abortions. Greg also reminds us that it wasn’t that long ago the right was in an uproar over a DHS report talking about right wing extremists: One passage from the DHS report that provoked nonstop outrage said that right wing extremists “may include […]
It looks like the RNC is preparing to take that final plunge into the abyss. Maybe the Whigs will make a comeback now?

Sadly though what they are recycling is old talking points: RNC chair Michael Steele has unleashed a new attack on Obama, sending out a mass mailing attacking the President as part of the “blame America first” crowd, an apparent effort to prove to critics that he’s getting tougher with the opposition. But this might be […]
Who ever thought the head of the RNC would be such a rogue? (audio only) Think Progress points this out: It’s ironic that Steele insisted he was “not backing down,” because directly following Steele’s original statement regarding primary challenges, the RNC walked back his statement in a message to Politico’s Ben Smith, insisting it “has […]
Limbaugh proves in an email exchange with Greg Sergeant that he is one very close minded individual. He won’t even hypothesis if Obama’s economic policies will work – instead insisting that they will fail. That kind of thinking is what the Republican party is holding up as their mantra now. They bow to it and […]
