I love a good rant, especially one backed up by cold, hard facts and solid arguments. And Kurt Eichenwald of Vanity Fair has blogged one of the best rants I’ve ever seen. It is made all that much more powerful by the fact that Eichenwald is not a blatant partisan, and is actually concerned that […]
“Did you all watch the Republican convention last night? It’s good to see scripted television finally making a comeback.” – Jay Leno “The Republican National Convention is in full swing in Tampa. Speeches are being made. Hats flown in the air. Everyone gets their own hippie to slap around.” – Craig Ferguson “Chris Christie gave […]
The Daily Show looks at what it would really mean to run the US government like a business. Good thing Mitt Romney likes to fire people!

Jon Stewart gives the best recap of Clint Eastwood’s speech at the Republican National Convention, and how his performance neatly sums up the whole convention. Sorry this is split into three videos, but they are relatively short and you should watch all three of them: Eastwood’s performance also elicited a big response on twitter. Here […]
“Donald Trump was bumped from speaking at the Republican convention because of Hurricane Isaac. See, nobody ever talks about the good things hurricanes do.” – Jay Leno “Are you keeping your eye on Hurricane Isaac and the Republican convention? Something good could come out of this hurricane. It may once and for all put an […]
© Chris Rock I don’t see it as “voting for the lesser of two evils”. I see it as voting for the person who is trying to fight evil and not always winning, but is willing to keep trying. Yes, I can (and do) fault Obama for not ending the war in Afghanistan sooner, but […]
“The Republican convention was worried that it was going to be postponed or maybe completely canceled because of Hurricane Isaac. This is serious stuff. CNN is on full Blitzer.” – David Letterman “It looks like Hurricane Isaac has delayed the Republican convention for one day. See, I think the Republicans should use these 60-mile an-hour […]
© Adam Zyglis The Republicans say that Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan will tell us the “hard truths” we need to hear. And they they turn around and say they are going to cut taxes, balance the budget, save Medicare, and increase spending (especially for the military). It is like a fairy tale with an […]
“A hurricane is scheduled to hit Tampa during the Republican Convention. These winds are so strong they could actually blow some of Mitt Romney’s money back in the United States.” – Jay Leno “They’re all going down to Tampa where an Evangelical party is going to nominate a Mormon and a Catholic and then get […]
Mitt Romney declared in his acceptance speech “And unlike the president, I have a plan to create 12 million new jobs.” Sounds great! Especially from someone who claims that government doesn’t create jobs. And hasn’t actually, you know, told us what he would do. So how can Romney claim he will do it? Easy! Moody’s […]
“Beginning Monday is the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Florida. Do you know what the theme is this year? Room Service and Hookers.” – David Letterman “Tropical Storm Isaac is expected to develop into a hurricane in the next few days. Unfortunately, the Republican National Convention starts in Florida on Monday. The National Weather Service […]
While the Republican National Convention is busy trying to promote their narrative that Obama has been a disappointment of a president, there are two things that you should remember: First of all, that it is a lie. Despite relentless opposition from the Republicans — who even opposed their own ideas (like Romneycare/Obamacare) when Obama adopted […]
