Source: rightwingthinking.info via Robert on Pinterest On Ronald Reagan’s birthday, let it be known 40 states choose to recognize his birthday. It’s not a holiday or anything. It’s just a note that someone very important to this country was born on this date. Eight states choose to intentionally ignore his birthday. It’s kind of [...]
There’s campaign rhetoric, and there’s reality. The campaign rhetoric was “change you can believe in”. The reality looks something like this: Simply, 3 of the 7 states that have clear Republican majorities on the national level are in the Top 10 biggest pork losers. Nancy Pelosi controls the House, who sets the budgets ( appropriations [...]
Stuart Rothenberg over at Real Clear Politics ponders Chris Dodd’s future. He points out a lot of issues that have created a PR nightmare for Dodd. ( My favorite personally was Dodd moving his family to Iowa. I’ll bet people in Connecticut consider someone who ditched them for Iowa not election-worthy. ) Rothenberg rifles a [...]
The gall and stupidity of Nancy Pelosi never ceases to amaze me. Today, with arguably the economic welfare of the United States on the line, and for that matter, several other countries of the world, Nancy Pelosi assured the world an agreement to bail out the struggling spec market was at hand. She’d have it [...]
Just when I thought it was safe to assume Keith Olbermann was completely nuts, he tops himself. This is what the pride of the left wing had to say about John McCain’s recent ad featuring two hot young celebs: KEITH OLBERMANN: What about when it backfires?

Mike Huckabee had this to say in what I think is a response to the gang-rape victim in Saudi Arabia: Every time we put our credit card in the gas pump, we’re paying so that the Saudis get rich — filthy, obscenely rich, and that money then ends up going to funding madrassas,” schools “that [...]
I pretty much figured this would happen a lot sooner than I did find it. Jeff Fecke at Shakesville ponders: ….if Craig had been arrested for public nudity or having sex in a bathroom stall, I could understand this better. If he’d been arrested for soliciting a prostitute, I’d be all in favor of him [...]
Alberto Gonzales was one of the architects of The Patriot Act. He was also the legal mastermind in keeping it afloat. He did this initially more or less discretely. However, in November 2004 Bush nominated him to be the next Attorney General. That’s when his work with The Patriot Act came front and center. And, [...]
In 2000, George W. Bush won the electoral college. He however, lost the popular vote. The election was so close that Al Gore challenged one state in an effort to change the outcome of the election. The only reason it was that close was because Gore focused on a hand full of huge electoral prizes [...]
This is precious. Since Joyner published this very publicly, and I’m sure doesn’t want it kept secret, I’m just gonna post the whole thing here: Matt Stoler is leading the charge for the Netroots to root out the “Bush Dogs” from the Democratic Party, purging it of the impure traitors who do not buy into [...]
