Please RT! – @RobDelaney Apparently I’ve been waiting my whole life for Twitter. Allen Ginsberg had to roam to streets to see the best minds of his generation destroyed by madness. I do it through a retina display.And politics has been waiting for Twitter, too. Last year, Politico’s Ben Smith recognized last year that Twitter was draining the life from […]

How dare anyone call this evil? This first video is about Zoe. She was born with half a heart. By the time she was 6 months old, she had already had two open heart surgeries and was half-way to using up her lifetime cap. Thanks to the Affordable Care Act, she is alive and will grow old.

The Hate Show gets its comeuppance Well, well, well. This is interesting. From my inbox this morning: As of this morning, 50 companies and two radio stations have dropped Rush Limbaugh’s radio show. Even one organization that gets free advertising on his show is demanding to be dropped. So many advertisers have fled Limbaugh’s show that yesterday, 77 of 86 […]

Yes, honey. Whatever you say. Callista Gingrich tells us all how to be The Perfect Republican Wife: When asked by a reporter what he was giving up for Lent, the hefty Newt admitted sheepishly that he was giving up sweets. Perfunctorily, the reporter asked the same of Callista. Her response had just a tinge of bitterness to it: “My opinion”. […]

How Mitt Romney hides his Mitt Romney-ness Imagine clicking on the DrudgeReport and seeing this: MITT ROMNEY SUPPORTED INDIVIDUAL MANDATE FOR OBAMACARE It would be the end of Mitt Romney’s campaign. Why? Last year, as pundits wondered how the man who implemented an universal health care plan nearly identical to Obamacare could win the GOP nomination, Mitt Romney had an […]

You call that “winning”? Although Mitt Romney is crowing about his big win in Michigan this past Tuesday, it appears that he split the Michigan delegates evenly with Rick Santorum. Comically, though, the Romney camp is saying that’s not true. Santorum, campaigning in Tennessee, one of 10 states with contests on Super Tuesday next week, said he and Romney have […]

Baby, the USA was born this way Here’s the good news. On a federal level, we have a President who refuses to defend the unconstitutional Defense of Marriage act. We need a Congress who will pass a law that grants same-sex couples all the federal benefits of marriage. We already, I believe, have a President who will sign that law. […]
