Filed in National by on April 23, 2009 10 Comments

One of my all-time favorite bloggers, Tennessee’s Southern Beale has a great post from the Radical Right saying that war is over. You got it, even though we have soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan and Bush is considered a “War President”, somewhere between Jan. 19th and Jan 20th, the United States went from being a […]

Earlier this month Alabama’s à la Rob wrote about a new “textbook” for homeschoolers, Facts, Nor Fear: Teaching Children About The Environment.

DE GOPers Start Getting Their Hate On

Earlier in the week, I sent a note off to the Lt. Governor regarding my concerns about eminent domain which was ready to go to the Senate floor. Lt. Gov. Matt Denn was quickly responded and was kind enough to let me publish his response in Eminent Domain: Nemski’s Letter and Denn’s Response. Even though […]

For English Only — 32,144 (44%) Against English Only — 41,752 (56%) From Enclave: I expect nothing but contrition in any response from Eric Crafton, whose mantra while pursuing this expensive special election was “‘We the People’ have a right to vote on this matter.” Well, he should […]

The Radical Right is all over the Employee Free Choice Act (EFAC) because they are worried about taking away workers’ rights. Really? This is what you’re going to go with here, Republicans looking out for the welfare of the working man and woman. Okay, I’ve stopped laughing, have you? So the Radical Right’s opposition to […]
