“I’m still reeling from yesterday’s inauguration disaster. First off, where was security? The Secret Service is supposed to protect the president and first lady, but in the middle of a kiss, they were viciously photobombed. Enjoy Gitmo, Malia.” – Stephen Colbert “The president gave a brief but powerful speech. He did not shy away from […]
The Republican governor of Florida has claimed that implementing Obamacare in Florida will cost the state billions of dollars. But now, the first detailed study of the costs shows that rather than costing the state money, it will actually save money. $300 million in the first year alone. Obamacare will be especially important in Florida, […]
“Today’s inauguration marked the first time ever a president used the word gay in an inauguration speech. It was the part of the speech where Obama pointed at the Washington monument and said, ‘Whoever designed that thing must have been pretty gay’.” – Conan O’Brien “During the inauguration, Good Morning America host George Stephanopoulos gave […]
Finally! Score one (and a big one) against patent trolls. Newegg, an online electronics retailer, has won their patent appeal against Soverain Software.

Republican Roxanne Rubin is convinced we need Voter ID laws in order to prevent voter fraud. This has always been an issue with me. I just feel the system is flawed. If we’re showing ID for everything else, why wouldn’t we show our ID in order to vote? So she decided to prove how easy […]
Robert Reich makes a strong argument that the Republican party is finally unraveling. Ronald Reagan managed to put together a coalition of different factions who put aside their huge differences and united against common enemies, namely “communists and terrorists abroad, liberals and people of color at home”.

“It was reported that President Obama’s 2013 Inauguration Committee is receiving fewer donations than it did in 2009. The scaled-back event will feature fewer inaugural balls, a shorter parade, and a musical performance from the Black Eyed Pea.” – Seth Meyers “Mississippi Governor Phil Bryant on Wednesday asked state legislatures to declare President Obama’s new […]
© David Horsey After four (long) years of Obama bending over so far backward that he ended up looking more like a Republican than a Democrat, and getting nothing but hatred and contempt thrown back in his face, it takes a lot of chutzpah to accuse the president of not being bipartisan enough.

“The NRA made an ad saying that Obama is elitist because his kids have armed guards. Yeah, that crazy Obama thinking his kids need special protection. I love the NRA accusing anyone of being paranoid. It’s like a septic tank saying ‘You need a mint’.” – Bill Maher “In a recent attack ad, the NRA […]
“On Sunday the White House will hold a private swearing-in ceremony for President Obama. Not to be outdone, on Sunday Republicans will hold a private swearing-AT ceremony for President Obama.” – Jimmy Fallon “President Obama said this week that he wants to find a ‘pathway for citizenship’ for immigrants in the United States. Don’t we […]

If you wonder why no bankers ever went to jail for rampant criminal behavior that almost destroyed our economy, watch PBS Frontline explain it in a way that is so clear it is frightening.
