Am I dreaming?

Posted: Saturday, August 8th, 2009 @ 3:20 pm in Political | 11 Comments »

Sometimes I read something that just makes my jaw drop. I have to read it multiple times to make sure I’m not missing something. Then I have to make sure I’m actually awake, that it isn’t all a dream. I had one of those am-I-dreaming? moments this morning, when I saw Sarah [...]

The truth comes out

The truth is out, readers, about who I really am…

Why do you think my mom is in Kenya right now, readers? She’s doing secretary-of-state stuff to fool the MSM, but she really went to Africa to “take care of” the person who leaked a copy of my birth certificate to the truth-seekers all over [...]

Thoughts on the Stimulus

Since the other Chris is gone, the junior writer, elfasbrynja, would like to step in.
I voted for Obama last year and I appreciate how he has already rolled back a lot of stupid Bush administration policies. In terms of social and scientific policy, at least, he’s doing markedly better than what I would have expected [...]

As usual, Digby is right — voting for Chris Matthews for the US Senate would be a horrible, horrible mistake. I agree with Digby 100%:
… Matthews is a bridge too far. I could never vote for, raise funds for or in any other way help Chris Matthews become a member of the Senate and [...]

Right-wing healthcare

Posted: Friday, December 5th, 2008 @ 5:58 pm in Political | 9 Comments »

Right-wingers love to say things like, “What does it matter if you don’t have health insurance? You can always just go to the hospital!” Some Ohio AM-radio wingnuts just gave us a good example of this foolishness:
TAMNY: … the next time we hear about how there’s 40 million uninsured Americans in terms [...]

Damned if they do…

Whenever a group of crazed radical-Islamist extremists commits some horrible act of terrorism, such as the recent attacks in Bombay, wingnuts expect all Muslims everywhere to condemn it. Fair enough.
But when they do, wingnuts just sneer and say “they don’t really mean it.” Look at the Costco Coulter’s reaction today:
Some ignorant conservatives, along [...]

Mirabile dictu

“A Historic Victory,” read the blog-post title that popped up in my RSS reader last night. David Horowitz was weighing in on Obama’s victory. I couldn’t wait to see what he had to say, readers. I was expecting an unhinged screed, but, mirabile dictu, David Horowitz sounded halfway reasonable for once:
I think [...]

Adam Hussein Smith, Commie Socialist

Posted: Tuesday, October 28th, 2008 @ 9:23 pm in Political | 1 Comment »

Readers, it’s been pretty scary to hear about Barack Obama’s radical Marxist-Socialist-Communist plans to “spread the wealth around.” If you’re a good American, like me, Joe the Plumber, John McCain, Sarah Palin, et al., you recognize Commie doublespeak like this for what it is:
Obama explained his tax plan during the roughly five-minute exchange — [...]

Obama Derangement Syndrome: A New Low

Posted: Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008 @ 11:08 pm in Political | 2 Comments »

Who else, readers, but Michael “Darth” Savage, could find a way to set the bar even lower? I was just on my way home from the grocery store, listening to “The Savage Nation” on FM NewsTalk 104.7, when I heard one of Savage’s looney-tunes callers suggest that “the real reason” Barack Obama’s going to [...]

Keepin’ it real

The GOP is keepin’ it real in Campaign 2008, that’s for sure. First Sarah Palin says that small towns are “the real America… the pro-America areas of this great nation,” then looney-tunes Rep. Michele Bachmann (R – MN) calls for a media investigation to root out “anti-American” members of Congress; finally, Rep. Robin [...]
