Michelle Malkin is claiming 2 million turned out in Washington, D.C. today to “celebrate” the day after 9/11. The organizers, Freedom Works claimed that ABC News was estimating 1 to 1.5 MILLION turned out. Uhhh…actually? ABC News didn’t say that at all. They said 60,000-70,000. Oops. According to ABC News: Conservative activists, who organized a march on the U.S. Capitol […]

Via Politico, Joe Wilson’s campaign is reporting that he has now raised $1,005,021 since his “YOU LIE!” outburst during President Obama’s speech to Congress this past week. As reported yesterday, Wilson began his own fundraising effort via YouTube to counter the groundswell of financial support for Democrat Rob Miller. Miller has raised just under $900,000 via his Act Blue page […]

Like it or hate it, the President gave his much-anticipated speech tonight. It appears that after a summer of tea bagging screamers with not a shred of decency when it comes to public debate and dialog, the infection has grown beyond the confines of town halls, school gymnasiums, union halls and other public gathering places. Tonight, during the President’s speech, […]

I’m sure you’ve seen it by now but, in case you haven’t, this has to be one of the most over-the-top conservative Republican scandals to come along in awhile forever. Michael Duvall is a conservative Republican state representative from Orange County, California. While waiting for the start of a legislative hearing in July, the 54-year-old married father of two and […]

The Tea Party Express rolled its malevolent way through Michigan today. Noon: Jackson!3:30: Brighton!6:00: Troy! I was invited by Organizing for America to join a few of my closest Livingston County Democratic, pro-health reform friends to attend the Great D-Bag Tea Bag Extravaganza in Brighton. Why can’t they ever have these things when I don’t have to take fucking vacation […]

Over at the Daily Kos, I have a semi-regular feature I do called Forays Into Freeperville where I highlight some of the brilliant inanity of a website called the Free Republic. The Free Republic is an ultra-conservative message board and the denizens of the site are some of the most vile and repugnant right wingers you’re likely to encounter anywhere. […]

You just can’t make this shit up. Via Windy City Watch: llinois Republicans are a patriotic bunch. They start their meetings with a recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance, the nation’s unofficial loyalty oath. And so it was last week when Republican Party leaders met at a Springfield hotel prior to attending Republican Day at the Illinois State Fair. Republican […]

For your reading pleasure: County Commissioner Brings Swastika Sign To US Rep. Schauer Health Care Rally I think I made this guy’s life rather difficult starting a bit before lunch today. Good. I’m just sayin’…

Such good, good news. Norm Coleman did the gracious thing by bowing out after a scant eight fucking months of court challenges. What a righteous dude. Fucker. Watching this makes me feel all better, though. I’m just sayin’…

Cross-posted at The Daily Kos. For several days now I’ve been expressing my disgust at Governor Mark Sanford. According to his wife, Jenny, they were in a trial separation to help “strengthen their marriage” and then, less than a week later, off he goes to Argentina to be with his squeeze. Chances of their marriage succeeding after he pulls that […]

I came across a press release put out today by the Republican Study Commission. It’s titled “10 Questions for the President on Health Care” and in it is a list of questions for President Obama on his plans to reform the healthcare system. I expected them to dumb. That’s what the Goposaurs are best at these days. And they were, […]
