I gotta tell ya…
I’m just not up for engaging Republican morons on health care. Our system is clearly effed up three ways to Sunday and all they can do is salivate & bark every time their handlers ring a bell.
The Least He Can Do.
From our Tipwire: According to the AP, President Barack Obama plans to extend health care and other benefits to the gay and lesbian partners of federal employees. White House officials say Obama plans to announce decision on Wednesday in the Oval Office. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity because the president had not […]
I make LOVE to you though baby!

Observation
Conservatives don’t look down on people They look over them, around them, past them, through them
Solidarity
Like some other sites, notably the BBC and Andrew Sullivan’s The Dish, we are changing the color of our logo to show our support for the Green Revolution in Iran. Yes, this can be described as narcissitic (a complaint leveled at Sullivan when he changed the color scheme). And yes, it is basically a meaningless […]
Deep Thought
The good thing about Iran’s “green revolution” is that it is happening at a time in which George Bush, Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld are not around to screw it up.
Open Thread: Racism Edition
All I can say about these links is OMG WTF. From the South Carolina GOP, a Facebook update comparing Michelle Obama to an ape. Rusty DePass, a prominent South Carolina Republican activist, is now apologizing for making a racist joke about Michelle Obama, and taken down the Facebook page where he made it — though […]
Put Your Religion Where Your Mouth (And Wallet) Is
As an agnostic, I find the Right’s view of Christianity self-serving and convenient. So let’s play What Would Jesus Do? For specifics, let’s pretend that Jesus sets up shop in Delaware. 1. Where would Jesus live? 2. What school would Jesus teach at? 3. Would Jesus support welfare (You know, caring for the poor)? 4. […]
Delaware General Assembly Pre-Game Show-Tuesday, June 16
“Where’s the money” is still the question d’annee, and timely answers do not appear forthcoming. The Governor’s office has subtly, perhaps too subtly, stressed the need to come up with a comprehensive solution, but so far the announced compromises have only served to widen the projected deficit, not narrow it. ‘Bulo will resist runaway train […]
People sadden me, especially Christians
Why the Health Care debate fights an uphill battle. I guess I went to a different Catholic school than many of the Catholics I know. I must have skipped school the day they told us to hate lazy, uneducated black people. I also must have skipped the day that Sister Martin Joseph told us to […]
