    political rhetorical tone & the shooting of a Congress woman

    At this early time, the shooter appears pretty clearly to be a deranged individual, so I suppose it is possible that if he had not happened to open fire at a Democrat, he might have instead found a Republican (or Libertarian/Green/whatever) to fill with lead instead. I don't suppose we can ever...

    Have fun with this one...

    Congratulations, 21st century conservatives/Republicans, on forming your very own MoveOn copy-cat group. Beat your chests with pride, or hang your heads in embarrassment, as you see fit.

    Evangelical church clashes with FOX, Glen Beck

    Lolz!, Beck isn't a conservative, He's a morning zoo disc-jockey who found out he could make more money with this shit. If he could double his salary by hosting a reality show featuring people eating dog shit, he'd be there. Beck laughs all the way home after every show. I'm sure he's cracking...

    Palin, meet hypocrite, Hypocrite, meet Palin

    More victimhood from Sarah Palin. The Republican party & tea partys great hope. She's an attention whore, but it seems to be working quite well. Keeping her name in the "news" is good for her new business. Too bad Family Guy is never satirical like Rush Limbaugh, or she might have given them a...

    Sarah Palin Shows Face to Hundreds of Teabaggers

    Victimhood & appeal to emotion, thats Palins MO. How typical of todays 21st century Republicans. As long as the right trot her out to do these public appearences, she is fair game, get over it. After all this woman is the future of the Tea Baggers and the Rebublican party, correct? It looks like...

    Anti-ACORN filmmaker arrested

    Prison time?! That little yuppie wouldn't last the night in juvie hall. Phone tampering? That's Soo 1970's Fluorescent vests and a construction-style hard hat for an office phone switchboard crew? Lolz!. And here I thought the pimp costume was out of touch with reality. Where do they breed...

    How come we don't have a Tiger Woods thread yet?

    Bryant did lose some. Michael Vick lost every one of his. Tiger's endorsements have been based on his image, only part of which is his success. He exudes mental toughness on the course as well as winning, and corporate types just love mental toughness and winning so they like to identify with...

    How come we don't have a Tiger Woods thread yet?

    IMO its going to be tough for him continuing the tour next year. Two reasons. First, to perform at his level requires a phenomenal amount of concentration, even from him. He's so distracted now, focused even on everything else that's going on and there's no way there will be any let up in...

    How come we don't have a Tiger Woods thread yet?

    I'm stunned Tiger could keep 10+ side dishes out of the spotlight given his level of fame. We've never even heard the "Tiger seen prowling the clubs at Vegas" stories prior to this. Of Course, he is pretty good at keeping his private life private, but still, you'd think that the rumors would've...

    How come we don't have a Tiger Woods thread yet?

    Seems that his wife Elin just "teed" off. Most importantly what club did Elin use, maybe a "rescue" club? I heard Phil Mickelson called Elin on her cell phone today. He wanted to ask her how to beat Tiger. What does Tiger have in common with a baby seal? They've both been clubbed by a Swede...

    A conservative columnist reviews "Going Rogue"

    I know she's the Tila Tequila of American politics and all, and she looks like a naughty librarian and winks like a hooker, but, you're never going to get a chance to fuck her.

    Another bow by OBowma

    Obama's gesture was aimed at the Japanese people, not the Japanese "state". It is a gesture of friendship and amity, not a gesture of submission by a vassal, but a gesture of respect from an ally. Silly wingnut, Get some preparation H for that sore ass of yours. You sound butthurt.

    Another bow by OBowma

    Obama bowed to a foreign leader? Shit, I guess that means we're not a superpower anymore. There was a time that this might have been important, a refusal to offer deference. Back When we were a revolutionary country, proudly defiant of the Old Order of kings and nobles. When we weren't the...

    Palin's "Going Rogue" Isn't Even Out Yet and Already She's Accused of Lying.

    Breaking: Mass Shooting at Ft. Hood

    LolZ, at this time in the investigation, the "right" isn't calling it one either... From the links above, Jonah Goldberg said: "He committed treason and murder. It was a cowardly act. If we are at war, then it was a war crime."

    LOL, identity politics.... Agian, normally peoples "opinions" have some level of bias, but normally we wait till all the facts are in before opineing. I seems Leiberman needs to go on national teevee and express his the way he did so early in this investigation . It rubbed me the wrong way...

    Breaking: Mass Shooting at Ft. Hood

    I like how this thread has turned into an Isreal/Palistinian fluffers thread. I think Joe Leiberman has a lot of balls throwing the "terrorism" canard around so soon, especially if this guy lives. He eventually will be charged with something and be tried. "Terrorism" as a charge against...

    Breaking: Mass Shooting at Ft. Hood

    AHH yes, Make sure to blame it on Obama. I'm sure he was in constant contact with Hasan's "handlers" via Bill Ayers, Rev. Wright, and ACORN. I guess your one of the guys who blame 9/11 on Bush.

    Breaking: Mass Shooting at Ft. Hood

    According to published reports, the Army knew six months ago, that Maj. Hasan was not a happy camper. When you join the U.S. military you become a G.I., or "government issue;" and, for the most part, you must do what your superiors order you to do, and without question. However, we are on the...

    What is the most probable motivation for the states that reject gay marriage?

    I do think most of the opposition to SSM is the sex. How do you counter fraudulent claims ("If gays have the right to marry, they'll be teaching homosexuality is OK to first graders") raised by less-than-honest SSM opponents, which have been the bane of several recent campaigns, like the...

    What is the most probable motivation for the states that reject gay marriage?

    @ Spittledip It sounds like you are still hung up on a word attached to a concept. If I am reading your reply correctly you dont want the word marriage attached the concept of MM or FF union which would be entitled to the same rights by law if passed. Because in reality, SS marriage IS a...

    What is the most probable motivation for the states that reject gay marriage?

    But dont you think the concept should be open to interpretation as we move forward in society with regards to equality with this issue. Thats whats happening now. over the "concept of marriage" The word concept can have many definitions also. Definitions of words do evolve over time. It could...

    What is the most probable motivation for the states that reject gay marriage?

    Many people who try to take religious or bigoted reasons off the table for opposing SSM, try to justify it by the fallacy of retaining the definition of marriage, believing the underlying idea that it represents a specific (normal) relationship. Its all about a word. In other words, what...

    Same Sex marriage - my view point

    I should probably state my position more clearly. I am FOR SSM, not just civil unions. Where we differ is how to get there for full legalization of SSM. My original point in my first post is that this is a civil rights issue and should not be in the hands of the voter. Civil rights laws would...

    Same Sex marriage - my view point

    I agree with you about the anti gay movement dying a slow death, and "equality" would be a great reality, but I'm gonna assume (And this is just my heterosexual assumption) that most gays are not particularly looking for "equal". They don't need to get "married", but what they want is for the...

    Same Sex marriage - my view point

    This is really about CIVIL rights so then the emphasis should be on CIVIL union rights, not marriage rights. Gay people, my advice is take the word "marriage" out of your campaign, and fight to get state laws changed so that the licensing process allow civil unions for any two adults, which...

    GOP frak up looming in NY-23rd- rise of the extremists

    We shall see, The people who describe themselves as "economic conservatives" have had plenty of opportunities to vote for people who talk the talk of smaller government -that is, pretty much every Republican in any office in my lifetime. But most of those voters aren't willing to cut their own...

    GOP frak up looming in NY-23rd- rise of the extremists

    Hoffman doesn't live in the district and never debated his opponents. He opposes earmarks, did he come out against those earmarks that saved Ft. Drum, the district's major employer, or one of them? There is no evidence anywhere that suggests he would be any more serious about reducing...

    GOP frak up looming in NY-23rd- rise of the extremists

    The conservative victory was in destroying the moderate Repub candidate, and in succeeding to get the Republican national leadership to basically repudiate her. The actual election was secondary - more or less a casualty of war. The conservatives have no interest at all in forming a third party...

    How Dems outmaneuvered GOP on ACORN

    We really need to keep lead-based paint off of America's windowsills. It just came clear to me! Of course! You just have to connect the dots! I heard that ACORN is putting spider eggs in kids halloween candy. Come November 1, spiders are gonna be hatching out of kids stomachs all across...

    Take back the Party!

    Sarah Palin is never going to hold another elective office. She might have a future as a ultra-right hood ornament, but she's a nobody who has nothing going for her besides identity politics. Her "fanbase" don't love Palin because of anything she's done or any skills she might have, they...

    Rep. Grayson says Cheney is a vampire!

    Shortly after the invasion of Afghanistan Dick Cheney hugged the podium at the San Francisco Press Club and sang out, "Quagmire, what quagmire?" Do you think we could trade him for an honest Afghan election and a future draft pick? His criticism of Obama now are breathtaking, not for their...

    Revolt on the Right
