Republicans were caught urging their fellow Republicans to show up for the Nevada Democratic caucus yesterday, to vote for Bernie Sanders. This is possible because while the Democratic caucus in Nevada was Saturday, the Republican caucus is Tuesday. Furthermore, while the Democrats allow same day registration, the Republicans already closed their voter rolls. So if […]

All the candidates spent the day with their supporters, except for Ben Carson who’s still waiting in the hallway.” – Jimmy Fallon “After a disappointing result in Iowa, Ben Carson is polling 8th in New Hampshire.

John Oliver is back from his three month break with a hilarious rant against voter ID requirements, which is blatantly racist and partisan.
“I saw that the unemployment rate in the U.S. just fell below 5 percent, which is the lowest it’s been in eight years. When asked for comment on the number of unemployed Americans, Obama said, ‘Uh … I can’t wait to be one of them!’” – Jimmy Fallon “In a recent interview, the Obamas complained […]
© Jen Sorensen It is the job of Obama to nominate a new Supreme Court justice. Republican demands that we wait until after the election so the appointment can follow the “will of the people” ignores the will of the people when they elected Obama (twice!). Obama has a chance to create a court that […]
“At the debate, Hillary Clinton addressed the controversy of her personal email server and said she has ‘no concerns about it whatsoever’. Democrats were like, ‘yeah, that’s what concerns us’.” – Jimmy Fallon “According to a new report, the number of babies named ‘Hillary’ has decreased 90 percent since Bill Clinton was president.

© Tom Tomorrow The Republicans have already announced that they are going to refuse to confirm (or even have a hearing to consider) anyone nominated by Obama to replace Antonin Scalia.

Sometimes, I really appreciate Donald Trump’s big mouth.

Trump attacked Jeb Bush, saying that he […]

There is an excellent column in The Guardian, titled “The phony in American politics: how voters turn into suckers“. Another good title could be “The more things change, the more they stay the same”.

There are a few key differences between a caucus and a primary […]
© Nick Anderson I think the only good thing that came out of this farce was the fact that they finally arrested Cliven Bundy and his sons. These jerks pretended to be fighting for their rights (which is something I can respect) but they just turned out to be some rich entitled yahoos who felt […]
