Someone once said that if you go far enough on the political spectrum to either the right or the left, you’ll get to the same place. That may explain why Bill Maher tweeted today that liberals should accept Rush Limbaugh’s apology for his “insulting choice of words” when he called Sandra Fluke a “slut” and […]

So, the excuse being given for spiking gas prices is news that Iran would halt shipment of oil to Britain and France. The problem with this excuse is that both Britain and France had already stopped buying oil from Iran. Not only that, but a director of the International Energy Agency points out that there […]
Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio today revealed the results of his six month investigation into the validity of Obama’s birth certificate. I’ll give you one guess what they decided. The investigation was headed by Jerry Corsi, who works for a website that encourages readers to pray for Obama’s defeat and replacement with a “godly candidate”. Corsi […]
© 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 […]
© 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
© 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 […]
I keep hearing progressives complain because they say Barack Obama is not liberal enough. For example, they say he gave up on single-payer health insurance too easily (I guess he should have wasted all his political capital on single payer like the Clintons did). Or that he should have closed Guantanamo immediately. Or pushed other […]
© Chip Bok Maybe the Fiat company knows something that we haven’t figured out yet — that American workers are just fine, it is just American top management that sucks. But it is ironic that Clint Eastwood first got famous by starring in Italian spaghetti westerns, and now he is creating a stir by doing […]
© Jim Morin Can anyone explain why Rick Santorum is so obsessed with other people’s sex lives?
The Colbert Report is off the air for a few days. News is scarce, but apparently there is a serious illness in his family, possibly Colbert’s mother. Colbert also tweeted his thanks for everyone’s thoughts and prayers. Rumors that Colbert’s show got yanked because he pissed off too many Republican power brokers are false. Nothing […]
© Brian McFadden I’m definitely not anti-religion, but it seems crazy to me that we give huge (as much as 100%) tax breaks to churches to run normal businesses, and they even get to make profits. Doesn’t that violate the establishment clause since it allows the government to decide what is a religion, and then […]
