This is helpful. This is a cartoon recently published by the Rome News-Tribune in Rome, Georgia. It contextually hits on a plethora of offensive and stereotypical imagery, but its inherent message in light of the Sandra Fluke fiasco is even more insidious: this campaign season will be the most heinous, well-funded exhibition of negativity ever.

Priceless: “This week, President Obama will release a budget that won’t take any meaningful steps toward solving our entitlement crisis. The president has failed to offer a single serious idea to save Social Security and is the only president in modern history to cut Medicare benefits for seniors.” Not only is Romney proving to be [...]

Rick Santorum has grabbed the President Obama’s war on religion narrative and has choked the life from it. Santorum may prove to be more adept at scoring points from this talking point than Mitt Romney. It’s his strength as the principled religious conservative in the race. But this play will only work with conservative evangelicals, [...]

Goldberg’s take on Republican strategy: Black people have lost the desire to perform a day’s work. Black people rely on food stamps provided to them by white taxpayers. Black people, including Barack and Michelle Obama, believe that the U.S. owes them something because they are black. Black children should work as janitors in their high schools [...]

This speaks for itself: Even needing to ask the question provides the answer. It matters not where he was born; this man is deeply and fiercely alien to the American tradition. He thinks ordinary Americans “cling” to Gods and guns because we are “bitter.” He believes we should “redistribute the wealth.” He thinks cops are [...]

This didn’t take long:video platformvideo managementvideo solutionsvideo player Of all the reasons for Herman Cain’s spectacular flame out, being a brother wasn’t one of them. In fact I submit it helped him far more than it hurt him in his spectacular rise to the top of the polls. What’s more fascinating is Cain’s persistent calls [...]

It’s one thing to disagree on a particularly divisive issue–it’s entirely something different to engage in haughty, disreputable politics. Mitt Romney’s shameful display not only reinforced his strained attempts at humanizing his candidacy–it showcased an utter lack of political savvy and genuine compassion. At an event that was meant to highlight the endorsement of Romney [...]

This is remarkable. The quote of the day: It’s unclear whether Cain’s candidacy is just part of his book tour, part of an effort to land a Fox show, or some sort of mere vanity project. But whatever it is, it is not a serious presidential campaign. Cain hasn’t earned the right to be taken [...]

Herman Cain’s 9-9-9 economic plan continues to get panned (pizza pun intended) by economists and even conservatives. On the surface it seems like a blatant hosing of the poor, by shifting the tax burden more heavily upon their shoulders in order to create tax equity. Cutting beneath the surface, Cain’s plan is simply a nod [...]
