The F word
This is amusing and not at the same time. Supreme Court debates ‘F-word’ without using it WASHINGTON – A clearly divided Supreme Court on Tuesday debated indecent language for an hour without anyone using the words in question. Circumlocutions like “the F-word” and “the S-word” sufficed as the court considered the year’s highest-profile free-speech controversy. […]
WORKING to Thwart The Media Narrative of the Failed Obama Presidency
Renowned internet dummy, Miscreant, thinks the press made people like Barack Obama and hate Sarah Palin. And as I noted last week, Rick Jensen is already promoting the meme of the failed Obama Presidency on his radio show. So we all know where this wingnut lynch mob is headed. “The liberal media” is s term […]
Other Winners
I won $10 off an office mate who said Obama would win with less than 52% of the popular vote. Cha-Ching! Cassandra won our prediction contest outright picking 17 of 20 races correctly. Of the five people (Me, Pandora, FSP, Tommywonk & Smyrnadudette) who got 16 of 20 races correct, the closest to 52.3 percent […]

Our Next State Treasurer?
Commenter ‘nooneimportant’ asks: And why aren’t we talking about who is going to be the next Jack Markell?

Back in October, […]
Palin: The Gift That Just Keeps on Giving
This is just STUNNING. But then again, it is not. It is stunning in the respect that how could this woman ever get elected to high office? As I have said, she is the perfect reflection, or symbol, of the Radical Reich in this country, personifying blind faith over uncontroverted facts and ignorance yet arrogance. […]
Georgia On My Mind
Wow. The word out of Oregon is that Jeff Merkley (D) has won the Senate seat. Believe it or not, Mark Begich can still win in AK, as there are still several hundred thousand votes to count. I have also seen a report that says that Al Franken has pulled ahead in MN. Oh My. […]
