HYPOCRISY WATCH, SARAH PALIN STYLE Sarah Palin is either a disingenuous fraud, or just plain idiotic. I’ll reserve judgment for the sole purpose of debunking her latest transparent crusade. Palin’s defense of Rush Limbaugh– a man made wealthy by stoking the flames of xenophobia, racism, sexism, classism, and any other ism that’s classified as divisive [...]

Between 2004 and 2008, the Congressional Black Caucus’s political and charitable wings collected at least $55 million in corporate and union contributions, according to an analysis by The New York Times. These donors also often appeal to caucus members for support for their legislative agendas. This collection shows documents from two C.B.C. groups and letters [...]

Let me be perfectly clear here. REPUBLICANS DO NOT WANT TO SUPPORT ANY POLICIES THAT THIS ADMINISTRATION COMES UP WITH, even when those policies are ones that they actually supported before. They only believe in obstruction, and obstinance. There is no bi-partisanship. There is only hypocrisy. Watch Rachel Maddow eviscerate GOP members of congress for [...]

The National Tea Party Convention concluded this past weekend, and If you’ve already read part one, then you know that the tone of the convention was set very early on.

Policy is not formed by religious proselytizing and radical invention. Yet components of both major political parties– one party more than the other– uses religion and the ensuing fervor behind it, to craft [...]

From Politico: President Barack Obama got a welcome piece of good economic news at the end of a difficult week for the White House, as the Commerce Department reported Friday that the nation’s economy grew by nearly 6 percent at the end of 2009, far faster than analysts expected. The gross domestic product rose a [...]
Take a peek at this chart and tell me the pattern you see: It seems that Republican presidents in the last 30 years have played a bigger role than their democratic counterparts in increasing the national debt. Why is this important? GOP arguments of “tax and spend liberals who are mortgaging our children’s future” –don’t [...]

Karl Rove. Watch it: Funny. I could have sworn The Great Communicator Ronald Reagan said this: To understand the State of the Union, we must look not only at where we are and where we’re going but where we’ve been. The situation at this time last year was truly ominous. [...] First, we must understand [...]

My man Ta-Nehisi shutting this Harry Reid thing down. (Wait. Is that negro dialect?) I think you can grant that, in this era, the term “Negro dialect” is racially insensitive and embarrassing. That said, the fair-mind listener understands the argument–Barack Obama’s complexion and his ability to code-switch is an asset. You can quibble about the “light [...]

QUOTE OF THE DAY: “We had no domestic attacks under Bush; we’ve had one under Obama.” -Rudy Giuliani on ABC’s Good Morning America. … Wow. The pathology of some of these wingnuts is astounding.
