Can you believe it? More proof that Obama is a Kenyan Muslim Islamofascistcommunazi. Look, just LOOK at the new logo for the Missile Defense Agency. Not only does it look like the Obama campaign logo, it has an Islamic crescent, too. Well, that’s what the freakazoids on the right are saying. The Obama administration’s determined effort to reduce America’s missile […]

I’m pretty sure it’s a new sporting event: you have to maintain a position that is the opposite of President Obama on absolutely everything. Must be exhausting. I’m just sayin’…

Yup. Twenty demands by Republicans at yesterday’s bipartisan Health Care Summit to scrap all existing legislative efforts and start anew. And there were only ten of them there. Sheesh. Pat Oliphant nailed it: My name is Eclectablog and I am a politaholic. I actually took a vacation day yesterday to watch all seven hours of President Obama’s bipartisan Health Care […]

This morning, the White House offered to put the GOP’s health insurance reform plan online alongside their own plan in preparation for Thursday’s bipartisan summit. Problem is: there isn’t one. Via Dan Pfeiffer at the White House blog: What you can’t do just yet is read about the Republicans’ consensus plan – because so far they haven’t announced what proposal […]

I’ll tell you what. You have got to take a firm…FIRM!…stand on the issue of … well … this: I will make it a priority to ensure transgender individuals will not be allowed to change the sex on their driver’s license in any circumstance. That’s Paul Scott, candidate for Secretary of State in Michigan. Trying to get the GOP nomination. […]

Jumping Hay Zooz on a pogo stick. Open Left spells it out. First the Republicans DEMANDED that President Obama put any health care plans up for discussion at the February 25th summit online for everyone to read. If the President intends to present any kind of legislative proposal at this discussion, will he make it available to members of Congress […]

Heh, heh… “I don’t owe [John McCain] shit,” Wurzelbacher continued. “He really screwed my life up, is how I look at it.” Uh, Joe Sam? I think you have that backwards. I ran into Joe the Plumber Sam Wurzelbacher at the Brighton, Michigan Teabagger extravaganza last year. And, as far as who was using who, I’d say Mr. Plumber Wurzelbacher […]

How do you motivate a Republican whose Congressional seat is being threatened? Well, if you’re Incumbent Retention Czar Mike Rogers (MI-08), head of the NRCC’s “Patriot Program”, you give ’em a colonial soldier bobblehead. I’m totally not kidding. Rogers uses not just the stick, but also the carrot. Make that the bobblehead. He gives a Colonial soldier bobblehead doll to […]

First he said this (in a Politico Op-ed in September ’09): Proud Americans, black and white, fought for too long and too hard to have the claim of racism be used in such a cavalier fashion. Blind charges of racism, where none exist, not only are an affront to those who have suffered the effects of racism, but it weakens […]

In an interview with Katie Couric last night right before the Super Bowl, President Obama announced that he is scheduling a bipartisan commission to go over the best ideas for health insurance reform. It will take place on February 25th. The idea is to bring Republicans back into the dialog after they took their ball and went home. They did […]

Our Michigan members of Congress are falling all over themselves to get into the spotlight regarding the Underpants Bomber. It’s like the news story that keeps on giving. First, last week, we had Rep. Mark Schauer (D, MI-07) questioning with or not the flight crew on Flight 253 followed protocol in the process. Was protocol violated when Flight 253 — […]
