Saturday night Wanda Sykes hosted the annual White House Correspondents Dinner. During her presentation she made a joke about Rush Limbaugh. In case you missed it, here it is: When I heard that I knew there would instantly be outrage from the right, and they didn’t disappoint. Just for a little taste of the anger […]
A new PEW Research poll is out showing that President Obama is more “polarizing” than any other President. The poll finds that Obama has very high approval from Democrats, 88 percent, and very low approval from Republicans, 27 percent. The 61-point partisan gap eclipses George W. Bush’s 51-point gap in his first year, and that […]
The right is making a big deal over a bill the Democrats voted down to “recoup” the bonuses from AIG. Here is the text of the bill: Section 1: The Secretary of the Treasury shall, notwithstanding any other provision of law, implement a plan within the next two weeks to recoup or stay the payment […]
It seems like I am just doing one really long post today, but broken up. I can’t help it, my mind is really going on this and I want to touch on something else from my on going posts about the RNC and Bobby Jindal. I said in my previous post that Bobby Jindal shouldn’t […]

The right was trying to say that Powell’s endorsement of Obama wouldn’t do much. Well that appears to be a false notion according to a new poll: First on Powell – Two in 10 independent voters said they are more inclined to vote for Obama because of Powell’s backing; 4 percent said they were nudged […]
Good – now send her ass to jail! I remember during the whole U.S. attorney scandal the right wing talking heads on TV trying to say how this was normal practice and very legal. I guess it’s time to serve them up a big old plate of crow.
It appears that it just might be: Conservative media outlets rushed with surprising vehemence to defend Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) on Thursday against a critical article in The New York Times, embracing a maverick they have often attacked. Rush Limbaugh calls it “the drive-by media … trying to take him out.” Laura Ingraham, another influential […]
