Alabama: Geometry teacher uses assassinating Obama as example to teach angles to students

While visiting Kate’s folks down in Alabama this past weekend, I discussed all sorts of things, including the state of education there, but this novel method of teaching geometry definitely never came up. (Birmingham News): A Jefferson County teacher picked the wrong example when he used as­sassinating President Bar ack…

Fundies don’t really believe this stuff

Here’s the question I had to ask myself when reading this news article: when people say they think President Obama is the Antichrist, are they fucking around with the pollsters? For instance, if Gallup called me and said, “Do you think Newt Gingrich is the Antichrist?”, I would not be…

Accuracy in Media’s Kincaid defends Uganda ‘execute gays’ bill after condemnation by Obama, Clinton

When the “kill gays” bill in Uganda was denounced today by President Obama and Secretary of State Clinton at the National Prayer Breakfast, everyone knew it would fire up the bigots — and Cliff Kincaid (usasurvival.org) was quick to hit the send button on this hate-filled press release. You won’t…

The Pray In Jesus Name Project: ‘defending our troops against open homosexual aggression’

Look at this batsh*t crazy Human Events ad on the pending repeal of DADT.  Well, clearly this is the kind of crap that the Obama administration and Congress fear — and what is causing them to call for more study and to say it will be "several years" before implementing the…

I could toss off some wry comment about this ridiculous comment by Chris Matthews, but the fact that he had no problem stating this on the air raises an interesting question — what is he really saying with a statement like that? What it boils down to is that there’s…

WTF, O?

Color me absolutely puzzled by the Obama White House’s absolute capitulation to Republican talking points. Obama intends to announce a three-year freeze on non-defense discretionary spending during the State of the Union address, which is about as clearly as you can say uncle without finding secret evidence that Glenn Beck…

Kerry Eleveld on the ‘Coakley effect’ and David Mixner on Obama’s damaging silence

You know, I believe that marriage is between a man and a woman, but I also think that same-sex partners should be able to visit each other in hospitals, they should be able to transfer property, they should be able to get the same federal rights and benefits that are…

Ring in the post-racial New Year: Obama effigy in Plains, GA

Yes, the color-aroused yahoos are already off to a nice start in 2010. (WALB): A doll found hanging off of a building in Plains is causing controversy. Controversial enough to get the United States Secret Service involved. Witnesses say it was an image of President Barack Obama with a rope…
