Jeffery Goldberg has written this in The Atlantic: Inevitably, the Jewish National Fund, which, among other things, plants forests in Israel, is asking for donations from Americans for its “Forest Fire Emergency Campaign,” in response to the massive fire spreading across the Carmel mountains. But I’m not giving. Israel’s per capita GDP is nearly $30,000. […]
Unbelievable: I’m hesitant to jump to conclusions about what actually happened in this kind of made-for-TV publicity stunt. Who were these “Rand Paul supporters” who roughed up MoveOn.org activist Lauren Valle? Why did police question Valle, and not the guys who roughed her up? At any rate, I remember when Alex Jones sicced a mob […]
Welcome to the new American political system: Police arrested a man around 5 p.m. Thursday outside KSPS studios after he drove by a group of Sen. Patty Murray supporters waving a meat cleaver. Johnny J. Sieler, 50, first drove by the group with a knife, shouting profanities about Murray. He upgraded his weapon to a […]
Someone needs fired and flogged: The Army said Friday it was investigating a claim that dozens of soldiers who refused to attend a Christian band’s concert at a Virginia military base were banished to their barracks and told to clean them up. Fort Eustis spokesman Rick Haverinen told The Associated Press he couldn’t comment on […]

Hannity planned to tape his television show from the event, which starts at 6 p.m. at the University of Cincinnati. Organizers of the rally […]
One of the bigger wingnut bloggers, Dan Riehl, is out using the horrible accident that Harry Reid’s family was in to push the lie of “death panels”: Come on, Harry – do your civic duty. The nation’s broke and counting on you guy. Pull the plug and get back to work. And don’t bill us […]
From Chuck Todd’s Twitter: Why is Reid surviving while Lott didn’t? Dems are rallying around Reid; GOPers let Lott wither on vine. @nbcnightlynews http://bit.ly/4JbGRH Todd just loves echoing the wingnut talking points.
So says the New York Times. Cesca does a good job at tearing this trash piece by the NYT down: Every Republican in Congress defends Rush Limbaugh and parrots Glenn Beck, and all of the really important Republicans from Chuck Grassley to Big John Cornyn have at one time or another engaged in the “death […]
Here’s Gateway Pundit: After the 2 million strong conservative freedom rally on 9-12: Of course being a wingnut means not reading. If you check out that link here’s what you see: As many as one million people flooded into Washington for a massive rally organised by conservatives claiming that President Obama is driving America towards […]
To prove this is a meme of the Republican Party just take a look at this blog post by Robert Stacy McCain (wingnut extraordinaire!): Let me explain something to you, David Axelrod: Obama and the Democrats didn’t “cut taxes” in a way that will stimulate economic growth. They didn’t reduce or eliminate the capital gains […]
