The gathering quickly turned into abusive heckling, as members [...]

Health Care Reform Protesters Mock Man With Parkinson’s Disease
March 17th, 2010 · No Comments · Democracy, Health Care, News, Political Fringe, Politics
Really???? Watch it below. See, I don’t have a problem with real, sensible protest. It’s when you act like a pack of sick animals– whose sole means of debate is to mock, ridicule, and demean others– whose points of view are different from your own. You do a disservice to yourself and your cause. And [...]

Friday’s Funny Politics
December 18th, 2009 · No Comments · america, Democracy, Health Care, Republicans
This isn’t quite that funny. It’s more amusing, in a David Cronenberg sort of way (He’s not really amusing). I’ve often wondered why some conservatives believe that God and religion are the sole province of their party. Does God love Republicans more than Independents and Democrats? Anyone with half a brain cell would say no, [...]

unfair, and equilibrium-challenged. According to liberal bloggers they are. Fox News is reportedly pulling the plug on selective clips provided by the News1News Channel, a progressive news channel on YouTube. YouTube has now shut News1News down, effectively blocking a pipeline of information pertinent to many in the liberal blogosphere. News1News was a popular channel on [...]

Sean Hannity And Fox News Don’t See Why They Can’t Doctor Video Footage… After All, They’re A Real News Organization
November 12th, 2009 · 3 Comments · Comedy, Democracy, News, Political Fringe, Politics, Republicans
Here we go again. Conservatives, America’s “real patriots,” have managed to make another mess with their Tea Party protest. Thank you Fox News. After I wrote about the 9/12 protest in September– how certain conservative bloggers wet themselves in reporting inflated attendance numbers (Michelle Malkin)– then used a fake picture to depict the scene, I [...]
