Did The Black Helicopters Run Them Off?
Anyone remember the Million Man Militia March on Washington, DC for July 4? So what happened? Google doesn’t turn up any info — certainly nothing from the man who needs to disguise his voice to get 1M of his homeboys together in DC. Could it be that they found a new cause at the Tea […]

Republicans Are Stupid, and Democrats Are Stupid Too
For weeks, the Republicans have been united in one thing – fear-mongering about closing the prison at Guantanamo Bay.

No Gay or Lesbian Jurists — The Bigotry Setup
John Thune: [C]onservative leaders have warned the nomination of a gay or lesbian justice could complicate Obama’s effort to confirm a replacement for Souter, and another Republican senator on Wednesday warned a gay nominee would be too polarizing. “I know the administration is being pushed, but I think it would be a bridge too far […]
