The National Enquirer story on John Boehner’s boner came out yesterday. While I haven’t yet seen the entire article (our stores are always late getting the recent editions), something posted in the on-site excerpt really got my curiosity going: But The ENQUIRER learned that Deborah was nowhere to be seen when the ruggedly handsome congressman […]
There is still a lot of debate over Sarah Palin’s crosshairs map and if it should be relevant to the tragedy this weekend. This article tells us why it is very relative: For Arizona Congressman Harry Mitchell, the threats were verbal, conveyed in messages left at his office. “I cannot tell you how much I […]
This is how the GOP cuts government spending: For a guy who insists that federal bureaucrats make too much money, incoming House Majority Leader Eric Cantor sure doesn’t mind handing out handsome government raises of his own. Cantor, the Virginia Republican who has led the GOP charge this year to freeze federal salaries, has boosted […]

That would be Republican Bruce Bartlett, who worked in both the Reagan and Bush 41 administrations, as well as being a former staffer to Ron Paul: On March 16 the Tea Party crowd showed up for yet another demonstration on Capitol Hill in Washington. Curious about the factual knowledge these people have regarding the issues […]
Yesterday we found out that employees of the Republican National Committee were able to have abortions and it was covered on their employee healthcare plan. This latest case of extreme hypocrisy from the right has sparked a new civil war. The following was posted on the popular right-wing website RedState: Let’s keep this simple. Word […]
As Bob points out, it’s because the people in the media are: It’s no wonder why people are confused about this stuff. When the so-called very serious “experts” have no flipping clue what they’re talking about, it makes it very difficult for their viewers to get it. And it’s not like Mr. Five Million Dollar […]
