Looking Back: A Review

November 13, 2009

First it was Rev. Wright…then Bill Ayers….with all the accompanying non-biased, and Pulitzer-Prize-caliber reporting. Then came the "Hillary Clinton was cheated," narrative suggesting (wrongly) that she had more primary votes than Barak Obama. All this was followed by "Obama's only a celebrity like Paris." Then came the "how can Obama overcome his problem with white [...]

Makes No Sense

November 6, 2009

Liberal ideas…truly liberal ideas…..are rarely ever considered by Congress. The reason is that liberal ideas, somehow, are never worthy enough to be called American….even though the strength and character of America was built primarily on liberal ideas.
Take, for example, the liberal idea on health care reform. The liberal idea on health care reform is single-payer [...]

Lies, Freaks and Videotapes

October 29, 2009

Remember back in May of this year when the tender and delicate feelings of some Republicans were bruised when Speaker Nancy Pelosi said this….
Pelosi said that she was explicitly told in her September 2002 briefing that waterboarding was not used. We've since learned that Abu Zubaydah had been waterboarded 83 times by then.
She accused the [...]

Ain't That Tough Enough?

October 22, 2009

The Fabulous Thunderbirds, one of my favorite contemporary blues groups, made the song my blog title rips off famous back in the 90's. I entitle my post with it today because of the schizophrenic messages coming from conservative and Villager voices over the 10-months-in-office President Obama.
Here's what I mean.
If you click here, and review [...]

The Mighty Newton

October 20, 2009

The comedy show continues….

I realize that Newt Gingrich is considered to be a bonafide, certified, conservative intellectual…..a master GOP sharpie….the Republican go-to guy for "ideas."
So, I'm thinking Newt thinks, because he is just so smart and full of, like, ideas, that Republicans are going to take back the House and the Senate next year. What [...]

The Insane Gang-Rape Clown Posse

October 8, 2009

Republicans don't take too kindly to trial lawyers. Not lawyers, as such….but "trial" lawyers. To hear conservatives and Republicans talk the way they do about them-there "trial" lawyers, you might be led to believe that, whoever they are, trial lawyers are just slightly less dangerous to our nation than al-Qaeda members.
One recent example of this [...]

44 Years Later…

September 22, 2009

In 1965, Congress passed and President Lyndon Johnson signed into law legislation creating Medicare, a socialized version of health care for all U.S. seniors.
In 1965, I believe, the Democratic Party was more liberal than today's party and the Republican Party was much more moderate.
In that 1965 vote in the House 237 Democrats voted in [...]

Updated below
National Tea Party expectations….
We’re going to Washington to give them a piece of our minds(we have more to spare!). We are joining hundreds of thousands (maybe as many as 1,000,000) fellow patriots in DC. get in on the act now.
Number of attendees according to Michelle Malkin's extremist-right website……
Celebrating the 9/12 rallies; Turnout estimated [...]

No Credibility

August 15, 2009

Conservatives in 2005 rushing to overrule one family's end-of-life decision.
Conservatives say that they do not trust the federal government. These same conservatives say that because the federal government cannot be trusted, the best course is to limit the size and scope of the federal government's power and reach.
If there is one overarching theme coming from [...]
