All of this has happened before, and it will happen again.
When a Democrat or liberal does it, it is pure evil and unforgivable. When a conservative or a Republican does it, it is protected free speech and those criticizing it are tyrannical despots intent to demonizing dissent.
They Just Can’t Help Themselves
Tea party activist and neurosurgeon Dr. David McKalip thinks a picture of Obama depicted as a witch doctor is “funny stuff.” He thought it was so great he sent it to his fellow tea partiers.
Castle Booing Overshadowed Beckham Boo filled Return to Galaxy
The BBC reports that Beckham was not forced to recite an oath of loyalty to the flag of the United States of America. David Beckham insists he is staying with the LA Galaxy despite a hostile response from some fans to his return. The England midfielder was booed by sections of the crowd at his […]
Blue Dogs Raking It In and Sticking It To The Poor
The Blue Dog Democrats coalition has raised more money than any other PAC in 2009. Somehow, coincidentally, the Blue Dogs are the ones holding up healthcare reform. I’m sure there’s no relationship.
Deep Quality of Life Thought:
Trees work. If anyone has been in Dover lately and seen the mature pin oaks that were planted 20 years ago, it is obvious that trees can have a huge impact on quality of life. (Photo stolen without permission from Mike Mahaffie’s flicker file.)
‘Non-Partisan’ Health Care Research Group Owned By…Health Insurance Company
The Washington Post blows the whistle (and a hearty Tip of the Sombrero to Americablog for picking it up): The political battle over health-care reform is waged largely with numbers, and few number-crunchers have shaped the debate as much as the Lewin Group, a consulting firm whose research has been widely cited by opponents of […]

Bill Tells Women Seeking An Abortion To Get A Permission Note From The Baby’s Father
I really wish I were kidding. State Rep. John Adams (R-OH) has re-introduced radical legislation that would prevent a woman from having an abortion until she gets written consent from the biological father. As proposed, the bill triggers criminal penalties against women for “providing a false biological father.” Adams says the “first-degree misdemeanor” would be […]

Obama Calls It Like He Sees It
President Obama commented last night on the Henry Gates arrest a few days ago in Cambridge. Now, I don’t know, not having been there and not seeing all the facts, what role race played in that. But I think it’s fair to say, number one, any of us would be pretty angry; number two, that […]
The Democrat Who Would Kill Health Care Reform
No, it’s not Tom Carper, although, based on his verified ties to the industry, he likely would if he could, and he’s doing his best as a junior obfuscator. It’s Sen. Max Baucus of Montana, who WILL kill health care reform if enough of his Senate Democratic colleagues (including Tom Carper) allow him to. A […]
Common Ground, Not So Much
A group called Democrats for Life kicked out Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH) because of his support of a bill increasing access to contraception. So much for the “common ground” argument.
