Terrorists for Tax Increases

This morning I got a Twitter message from a friend who works at the DC offices of Americans for Tax Reform, informing me that they had been evacuated after a bomb threat. Alex Pappas at The Daily Caller reports: Staffers at Americans for Tax Reform, the anti-tax group run by conservative activist Grover Norquist, evacuated their building […]

Bogus ‘Facts’? Twisted Logic? Raw Hate? Of Course: It’s Democratic Underground!

Next time somebody tries to tell you that the Right is a collection of crazy wingnuts, tell ’em to check out the DUmmies: Compared to the poltroons at DU, the Huffington Post* is a regular collection of rocket scientists. Even the assemblage of cretins at the Daily Kos has been heard to advise the DU, […]

BLACK MONDAY? Obama’s Debt-Ceiling Crisis Strategy Could Sink Wall Street

Let’s be clear: President Obama has orchestrated this unnecessary drama for the specific political purpose of causing a crisis that he — with the willing assistance of the liberal media — hopes to blame on Republicans.

‘Notification of Donation Received’

One of the great joys of blogging is when people hit the tip jar and, when I send them a thank-you e-mail, they write back. A certain tip-jar hitter wrote back today to say he would have given me more, except he’s saving up to buy that 7-carat diamond ring from Amazon. That there’s funny, […]

Don’t Mess With the Zilla!

Zilla of the Resistance gives John Hawkins a piece of her angry mind over his “Coming Death of Independent Blogs” article: John Hawkins at Right Wing News has posted a piece proclaiming that if you’re not a big important blogger like him and are just a smaller, newer, blogger like me, then you should just […]

Muslims: Don’t Hurt Their Feelings!

For example, it hurts their feelings when an Australian court says they can’t have sex with 8-year-olds. And it especially hurts their feelings when you suspect them of involvement with terrorism: Right-wing websites quickly pointed the finger at “jihadis,” and Pamela Geller, publisher of the website Atlas Shrugs and executive director of Stop Islamization of […]
