The New York Post makes its case for a post-racial America
I’m glad we don’t have to worry about racism any more. Sean Delonas created this unbelievable cartoon for the New York Post that clearly passed muster with the editors’ desk. It portrays commentary on the stimulus bill (“They’ll have to find someone else to write the next stimulus bill”) using…
Changing The Tone (And Not The Skin Tone, Dammit)
It seems to me that a popular Democratic president pushing through legislation after intensive good faith negotiations with the opposing party during which it is made absolutely clear they will not support the legislation in any form in which it is likely to be passed would, in fact, be a…
If Obama fails, it’s more too late than too little
Update: They invoked cloture. It’s now a foregone conclusion. Obama’s “convince America to back the economic stimulus bill” tour is turning out to be a classic argument for building infrastructure. Not national infrastructure, though he’s making that case well enough, but political infrastructure of the sort that Democrats have neglected…
Bam Bam’s Laws of Moral Physics
I’m really starting to worry about fundnut Matt “Bam Bam” Barber. Ever since the election his columns have gotten increasingly hysterical, more homo-focused than ever before. I know the BFF of The Peter has an unnatural fixation on the evils of man-on-man sex, but you have to take a look…
Shorter Charles Krauthammer
It would have been perfectly okay if Obama’s Muslim ass would have declared his love for his Muslim brethren, but the rest of us don’t need him to speak for us. It’s not like anyone elected the presumptuous motherfucker.…
American Family Association of PA op-ed – ‘Obama: An Enemy Of Boy Scouts’
Good grief. You have to read this crafty, but delusional swill from Diane Gramley, of the Pennsylvania American Family Association. She opens her op-ed in The Bulletin bleating about the injustice dealt to one of the historically black Boy Scout troops that marched in the inaugural parade — by Barack…
Who needs files on prisoners?
Here’s a news item that almost slipped under the radar, but is well worth considering: President Obama’s plans to expeditiously determine the fates of about 245 terrorism suspects held at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and quickly close the military prison there were set back last week when incoming legal and national…
You Know The Type, Loud As A Motorbike
But couldn’t bust a grape in a fruit fight: President Obama listened to Republican gripes about his stimulus package during a meeting with congressional leaders Friday morning – but he also left no doubt about who’s in charge of these negotiations. “I won,” Obama noted matter-of-factly, according to sources familiar…
Rush is already losing it over Obama admin
We’ve been watching quite a few fundie/winger heads explode over the last couple of days, as President Obama has used his pen to undo the secret society of the Bush Administration. Hillbilly Heroin procurer and all-around fetid radio gasbag Rush Limbaugh has been on a tear. I’m beginning to wonder…
Radical gun nuts stocking up, organizing because of Obama
Whenever I read about the fringe wack job survivalists, skin heads and other organized hate groups over at Dave Neiwart’s Orcinus, it gives me the chills. There’s nothing funny about these folks. In his latest piece, Dave covers the increased anxiety among the gun-crazed loons afraid of Barack Obama taking…
