Drudge Versus Rush (and Beck, and Hannity, and ___________)

Share Button

As posted on Drudge, Gramma Obama desperately wants him to convert to Islam, which of course means that… Uhm… He’s not a Muslim!  Actually, the biggest losers here are the carzies at World Net Daily, who constantly claim Obama is a Muslim.  WND does link to the story, but what does that say about the […]

Question Of The Day

Share Button

How is it that Conservatives can be so incensed and feel so violated over the TSA body scanners and pat-downs, yet be so completely caviler  over torture.  They are just trying to stop terrorist attacks after all…. Hey, I have an idea: Why don’t we just waterboard random airline passengers to find out if they’re […]

Surprise Of The Week

Share Button

We have a government department called “The Exchanges with Historic Whaling and Trading Partners program”. A bigger surprise, Andrew Sullivan, for some reason, wants to keep it, apparently.  I mean, come on. Yes, some of the rhetoric on spending cuts is silly, and don’t get me wrong, I have little faith in the ability of Republicans […]

Uhm… We’re Doomed!

Usually, I’m not pessimistic about the future of our country. I mean, I teach and have seen some very bright and able young adults in my class-room, some who will surely become leaders of the next generation. But then, I come across this…. Sigh. Is the world ready for a President Situation and VP Palin…. […]

FOX, Please Fire Glenn Beck.

I was first alerted to this story by my blog friend David Schraub. Here’s more from The Daily Newsweek… er, I mean The Daily Beast (it was just announced that they had bought out Newsweek this morning). I watched some of the video of the Glenn Beck Show called “The Puppet Master” (hint, the movie […]

Laugh Of The Day! Opinion – Uninterrupted; Olbermann unsuspended.

Share Button

Golly, I do hope those two days off learned him a lesson! Restating my assertion that Keith Olbermann never should have been suspended, NBC has thankfully ended it. He’ll be back on the air on Tuesday. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m not a fan of Olbermann’s program by any means, but to punish him, […]

The Price Is Wrong!!!!

Share Button

This is the part where “The Price Is Right” music plays in your head. The price, of course, is for the trip to India President Obama is about to take. According to conservative rabble-rouser Mike Huckabee and Rep.  Michele Backmann, President Obama’s trip will be costing $200 million per day! WOW! Great Headline! Too bad […]

A Two-Fer! The Memes They Just Won’t Let Die – Dems Lost Because Americans Are Gun Toting Racist! UPDATED.

Share Button

From Graaaaaydon Caaaaarter, the uber-sophisticate editor of…. Vaaaaaanity Fair: Well, anger certainly continues to be all the rage in the corridors of American politics. Not to mention American corridors in general. Polls taken prior to the November midterm election indicated that a surprising number of Obama voters said they were going to vote Republican this […]

Andrew Versus Reality

Share Button

Andrew SUllivan has posted Carl Paladino’s apology for reading prepared statements concerning gays that got him in trouble. Part of the apology says this: 5) My position on marriage is based on my personal views. I have the same position on this issue as President Barrack Obama… Sully responds: Notice how Barack Obama’s opposition to […]

My one political post of the week – Foreign fundraising…. By Democrats!

Share Button

So, Obama has been criticizing Republicans for supposedly taking foreign money to to help finance their evil schemes or winning back the congress. I’m sure there is foreign money coming in from somewhere…. Hey, it happens. But he’s floundering so badly, that the example he gives to demonstrate this is simply a horrible example. Basically, […]
