This is what happens to your poll numbers in the GOP primary when you insult immigrants

This is what happens to your poll numbers in the GOP primary when you insult immigrants

See that red line? That’s Donald Trump. His argle-babble about immigrants (who commit crimes at a lower rate than any ethnic group) has led to him being dumped by Univision, NBC, Macy’s and now Serta. Trump’s reputation is now so bad that businesses want nothing to do with him and Republicans do. It’s important to not read too much into […]

GOP Latino outreach fail: U.S. Latino leaders hold national conference and only one Republican bothers to show up

GOP Latino outreach fail: U.S. Latino leaders hold national conference and only one Republican bothers to show up

During his presidential campaign announcement this week, Donald Trump proudly declared that he would build a “great, great wall” on the border between the United States of America and Mexico because they “are sending people that have lots of problems, and they are bringing those problems to us. They are bringing drugs, and bringing crime, and their rapists.” This outreach […]

Republicans are as wrong about Obamacare as they were about the Iraq War

Republicans are as wrong about Obamacare as they were about the Iraq War

A new report from the Urban Institute details what every honest adult already knows: Obamacare is the most successful new government program since Medicare and Medicaid. In states that have fully implemented the law, the uninsured population has been cut in half. Tens of millions of Americans have been covered and about 14 million of them were uninsured before. Health […]

Nevada Republican state legislator declares cancer a “fungus” that can be cured with saline or sodium “cardonate”

With all of the insanity in Michigan’s legislature these days with people like Cindy Gamarat and Todd Courser, I thought it would be a nice break to show that we’re not the only state with Republicans that are … um … “different”. Today I present you with Michele Fiore, a Republican member of the Nevada state assembly. Fiore has a […]

National Republicans attack Schauer and Peters, still beating the dead Obamacare horse

National Republicans attack Schauer and Peters, still beating the dead Obamacare horse

GOP.com, the website for the Republican National Committee (RNC), is currently featuring a blog entry titled, “Another ObamaCare Promise From Peters And Schauer Falls Flat In Michigan”. In it, they continue to senselessly pound the dead Obamacare horse as they attack Michigan Democrats Mark Schauer, our gubernatorial candidate, and Gary Peters, our candidate for the U.S. Senate. The RNC clearly […]

Terri Lynn Land has got nothing, other than money from the Koch brothers

Terri Lynn Land has got nothing, other than money from the Koch brothers

For Land, saying nothing is probably good campaign strategy — but it’s a very bad thing for Michigan voters. If you don’t stand for something you’ll fall for anything. Republican U.S. Senate candidate Terri Lynn Land has clearly fallen hook, line and sinker for the Koch brothers, who are pouring big bucks into her campaign. But what exactly are the […]

Republicans maintain a laser-like focus on Obamacare misinformation campaign

Republicans maintain a laser-like focus on Obamacare misinformation campaign

GOP Congressmen Walberg and Bentivolio are so busy trying to discredit the ACA, how can they have time for anything else? How many Obamacare “horror stories” have to be debunked for people to realize that the GOP spin machine is pedaling so hard it’s about ready to rotate off its axis? Better yet, let’s call it what it is: lying. […]

RNC fundraising email claims health insurance costs under Obama have gone up EIGHT TIMES higher than they actually have

RNC fundraising email claims health insurance costs under Obama have gone up EIGHT TIMES higher than they actually have

Aren’t there laws against false advertising??? Yesterday, I published a piece titled “Debunking the Republican lie that health insurance costs have skyrocketed under Obama”. In it, I showed how the right is telling outright lies about the rate of cost increases of health insurance under President Obama. In that piece, I missed something. The GOP is claiming that the cost […]

10 ideas Republicans loved until Barack Obama became President

10 ideas Republicans loved until Barack Obama became President

It’s not the ideas they hate, is it? Republican obstructionism isn’t exactly new in Washington, D.C. It’s been all the rage since Barack Obama was elected President. Since then, a majority of Republicans have gone to great lengths in an attempt to torpedo his Presidency. The twisted irony is this: Many of the ideas President Obama and the Democrats have […]

The GOP asks us to “Tell us what you REALLY think about Obamacare”. I did. You should, too.

The GOP asks us to “Tell us what you REALLY think about Obamacare”. I did. You should, too.

That was fun!

So, early today I received an email from the Republican National Committee titled “Tell us what you think about Obamacare”. In it was a link to a short survey. I clicked through and took their survey.

You should, too!
