© Tom Toles Mitt Romney squeaked a win in Michigan, where his father was a popular governor. But … Call me crazy in a race that has made fools of just about every political pundit, but I’m still convinced that Romney will be the Republican candidate for president. My main question is at what cost, […]
The Republicans have sadly lost another moderate, Olympia Snowe of Maine. The loss is particularly stinging for the GOP, as Republicans are trying hard to take over the Senate in the upcoming election. Snowe is very popular and was considered pretty much a shoo-in for a fourth term. But what must really hurt is why […]
“I saw the worst reality show last night. Have you seen this one? It’s called “the Republican Debate.’” – Jay Leno “All these GOP debates. They had debates with podiums, debates with chairs, a table, bunk beds. Now the next one is going to be in black and white and silent.” – David Letterman “The […]

Is turnabout fair play? In February 2008, Rush Limbaugh announced “Operation Chaos“, where he encouraged Republicans to vote in Democratic primaries for Hillary Clinton, in order to prolong the primary fight between Clinton and Barack Obama. In some states, notably Ohio and Indiana, this might even have been a felony. Nevertheless, there is strong evidence […]
“Analysts say a key voting bloc this election year will be women called ‘Birth Control Moms.’ They’re moms who use birth control, but apparently not correctly.” – Conan O’Brien “Rick Santorum said today that during his 16 years in Congress, he was an outsider the whole time. You know what? After 16 years, you’re not […]

© August J Pollak As Mitt Romney recently put it, “Corporations are people, my friend.” Indeed they are. Large organizations, whether they are corporations, government, religions, unions, etc. are all made up of people. And these individual people are all trying to get ahead — to make more money, or get more power or influence. […]
Republicans can’t seem to stop talking about birth control: I love it when Rick Santorum claims that he is against birth control because of “the increasing number of children being born out of wedlock in America”. Duh, that’s what birth control will prevent, if it is available to women. Really! © Jim Morin
Earlier this month, presidential candidate Rick Santorum went into a church and publicly lied through his teeth. This wasn’t some momentary hyperbole during a campaign speech, or while arguing with another candidate. The event was a forum at the Grace Bible Church moderated by Dr. James Dobson, the founder of the conservative group Focus on […]
“Tomorrow night is the 20th Republican debate, which explains that new campaign slogan, ‘Vote Mitt Romney — or else we’ll keep doing this.’” – Jimmy Fallon “Everyone throws beads on Mardi Gras. The beads are paid for by local businessmen who ride on elaborate floats and toss little trinkets to the desperate masses in the […]
In Barack Obama’s energy speech this week, he promoted the idea of new biofuels: “We’re making new investments in the development of gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel that’s actually made from a plant-like substance known as algae. Believe it or not, we could replace up to 17% of the oil we import for transportation with […]
© Ed Stein Predictably, Republicans are blaming Obama for high gas prices, while Democrats are saying there is little Obama can do. I’m of two minds on this. On one hand, high prices for gasoline seems to be the only thing that can get Americans to shake our dependence on foreign oil. On the other […]
“Rick Santorum is so anti-gay, he doesn’t even want pirates touching their own booty.” – Jay Leno “Rick Santorum is so conservative that when he goes to KFC, he only orders the right wings.” – Jay Leno “This guy is so anti-gay, he won’t even eat a Hershey bar if it has nuts.” – Jay […]
It was the last Republican presidential debate before Super Tuesday. What? You didn’t watch it? No matter. It is much more fun to watch Jon Stewart make fun of it: If that isn’t interesting enough, read Matt Taibbi explain why he enjoyed watching the Republican candidates stick long knives into each other’s backs at the […]
