Monday Open Thread
It’s a beautiful Monday today! I’m glad we’re getting the spring weather finally. I guess Delaware Dem is going to remove that hit contract from Punxsutawney Phil now? I was busy watching and tweeting away during the Oscars. Here’s the story behind one of the weirdest moments of the night: The most riveting face-off during […]

Welcome to this beautiful weekend! My yard is now 100% snow free and it feels like springtime. I hope everyone is out and about enjoying the weather.

Friday Open Thread
It’s Friday and it’s time for your open thread. Let’s thread it up! Really, there’s literally nothing that the right can do to get the media to question their integrity. Right now, Liz Cheney is orchestrating a smear campaign against some lawyers in the Justice Department who wrote briefs in favor of habeas corpus for […]
Thursday Open Thread
It’s Thursday and boy has this week flown by fast. It’s more than halfway over now! So, are you ready for your open thread? Sarah Palin may not be Vice President but she soon may be unavoidable. She’s reportedly shopping a Palin reality series around those Hollywood liberals: With Mark “Survivor” Burnett in tow, the […]
Wednesday Open Thread
Welcome to Wednesday. It’s time for your open thread, so let’s get started. What’s worse than bad rap? Bad conservative rap! I love the part when he’s going on about pies. Why? Oh, and if you got through the whole thing – congratulations, you have a strong will. Now for something uplifting. Roger Ebert regains […]
Tuesday Open Thread
Welcome to Tuesday! If we keep getting more of this springlike weather I might start getting used to it. Let’s start our open thread.

Monday Open Thread
Welcome to March! It’s finally starting to feel like spring is coming. The temperature’s warming up, the sun stays out longer and my daffodils have started peaking up from the ground. Are you ready for an open thread? I am! Blanche Lincoln, probably the Senate’s most endangered Democrat, is getting a primary challenge. Lincoln is […]
Weekend Open Thread
Well I have to say that last snowstorm was a bit of a dud, but I’m not complaining. It’s nice not to be stuck inside for a couple of days. I have to add, I’m really, really ready for spring to arrive. This story just makes me sad: Last week, the South Dakota House of […]
Friday Open Thread
Welcome to Friday. If you’ve noticed that I haven’t been around so much, it’s because I’m absolutely swamped at work. It looks like you kept yourself entertained without me. So let’s open this thread. Why? The Charleston Post and Courier reports the final divorce hearing for South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford (R) will be televised […]
Thursday Open Thread
As of writing this, I’m still waiting for this latest snowstorm, the “snowicane” to start. It sure was nice of the snowstorm to hold off until everyone gets to work to start! Today’s open thread is a “governors behaving badly” version of your open thread. Let’s roll! It looks like the Gov. David Paterson bombshell […]
Wednesday Open Thread
Are we getting another mini-snowpocalypse? Who angered the weather goddess again? While we wait for more snow to come, let’s open this thread. Ooooh, delicious – rightwing slap fight: Wow. So, Glenn Beck’s CPAC keynote speech on Friday was apparently so powerful it united Jon Stewart, Rush Limbaugh and Mark Levin…against him. I’m not sure […]
Tuesday Open Thread
How is your Tuesday so far? I’ve been incredibly busy, how about you? Why don’t we get started with this open thread? A woman calls into a tech show because her wireless access disappeared. It turns out she had been stealing a neighbor’s wifi for more than a year. The tech guy offers some good […]
Monday Open Thread
USA! USA! USA! How about that hockey game? The US men’s hockey team beat Canada for the first time since 1960. This caused a bit of strife in my household, but don’t worry everyone came out o.k. and no one had to sleep on the couch. Rick Santorum hates gay people more than he loves […]
