This Seems Backwards

So a community of supposed Americans are upset that the Vice President of the United States has stated that he will prevent the early and unwarranted release of a convicted spy for a foreign government who breached America's national security some 25 years ago and endangered all Americans everywhere. In other times and circumstances, those supposed upset Americans might have been labeled traitors. At the very least sympathizers. For a fact, the spy, if he or she is an American citizen, is a traitor to America and deserves at the very least life in prison. But we live in a time where allegiance to Israel is more important than allegiance to America.

Thursday Open Thread

Ezra Klein: "Right now, the protests are at a tipping point. The unions and MoveOn.org are mounting a sympathy march this afternoon. Van Jones’s Rebuild the Dream and Russ Feingold’s Progressives United are blasting messages of support. Prominent elected Democrats such as Rep. John Larson, Chairman of the House Democratic Caucus; Rep. Louise Slaughter, ranking member on the House Rules Committee; and Sen. Jeff Merkley have all applauded the movement. What these Democrats and liberal-activist groups are looking for is something similar to what conservatives found in the tea party: an opportunity to recharge and rebrand."

Scott Brown just stepped in it.

So we all know that Senator Scott Brown of Massachusetts posed nude in Cosmo in his youth. Last week, during a Democratic primary debate this week, Democratic candidate Elizabeth Warren was asked how she paid for college. “I kept my clothes on,” Warren replied. “I borrowed money.” This morning, on a right wing radio show, Scott Brown was asked to respond to that, and he laughed and said “Thank God.”
