Credit Where Credit Is Not Due
Steve Newton of Delaware Libertarian has written two recent posts (more on his latest posts at the bottom) on the Glenn Beck organization We Surround Them. In the first post Steve appears far more concerned with those who take Beck and Norris seriously, claiming that it’s those (read:us) attempting “to stereotype everybody who disagrees with […]
The Lie That Won’t Die
Ari Fleischer is a big liar. FLEISCHER: It was in part because of Iraq and large part because of the economy that Barack Obama won. Having said that, I also think Barack Obama should say thank you every day that he inherited a world without Saddam Hussein in it. The one thing people are going […]
United We Stand
According to a new survey it looks as if Americans are more united than divided. Nate Silver (538) breaks it down. The questions cover a variety of issues, asking the participants to rate (on a scale of 0-10) whether they agree or disagree. You can take the test here. Luckily, Nate does the hard work […]
Say Good-Bye To Steele
Michael Steele is pro-choice. M (Michael Steele): The choice issue cuts two ways. You can choose life or you can choose abortion. You know, my mother chose life. So, you know, I think the power of the argument of choice boils down to stating a case for one or the other. L: Are you saying […]
Republicans Have Bigger Problems Than Lowering Pelosi’s Poll Numbers
They have Rush’s poll numbers. According to the Democratic polling firm, voters view the conservative talk show host “negatively by a two-to-one ratio (53 to 26 percent), with nearly half the country, 45 percent, viewing him very, very negatively. Among independents, the ratio rises to three-to-one.” 45% view him very, very negatively. I’m shocked, I […]
We Surround Them?
Can someone explain what this is about? We Surround Them-The Unveiling March 13th on FOX News 5pm ET Now, Glenn Beck is a wingnut’s wingnut, but when you add the future President of Texas, Chuck Norris, you’re really bringing on the crazy. In his WND column, Norris said he quipped on the show, “I may […]
I Can’t Wait For Tonight’s Daily Show
Taking on a comedian is never wise. Taking on someone as quick and clever as Jon Stewart is beyond foolish. Watch the clip. And while I can’t predict what Stewart will do to Cramer and Scarborough I know it’s going to hurt – in a painfully hilarious sort of way. (h/t TPM and a. price. […]
In God We Trust?
According to a new survey Religious affiliation is on the decline. So many Americans claim no religion at all (15%, up from 8% in 1990), that this category now outranks every other major U.S. religious group except Catholics and Baptists. In a nation that has long been mostly Christian, “the challenge to Christianity … does […]
Dems Have Nothing To Lose In The Limbaugh War
Dems have nothing to lose in the Limbaugh War because this fight isn’t about us. It’s about Republicans. Seriously, we have nothing to lose. If Rush wins (and he’s clearly winning so far) then he becomes the leader of the Republican Party. However, if the GOP succeeds in putting Rush in his place then they […]

With All Due Respect… Republicans Need To Shut Up
Seriously, they need to shut up! And I’m saying this for their own good. Step One: Someone needs to put a stop to Michael Steele’s foot in mouth tour. Let’s review Steele’s greatest hits… “We want to convey that the modern-day GOP looks like the conservative party that stands on principles,” Steele told the Washington […]
I’m Sorry, Who Are Republicans Blaming For Keeping This Circus Alive?
I really would like to stop writing about this, (Okay, I’m lying!) but how can I when Rush won’t shut up! Now he’s challenging President Obama to a debate! But I have an idea. If these guys are so impressed with themselves, and if they are so sure of their correctness, why doesn’t President Obama […]
