Think Right-Wingers Started ‘Birther’ Rumors? Nope: Clinton Supporters!
Clay Waters at Newsbusters explains “the rumor that Obama was not a U.S. citizen was initially spread in April 2008 by a group of Hillary Clinton supporters,” which is something to keep in mind the next time someone claims “raaaaacism” is the besetting sin of Republicans. The media often promote all manner of myths that […]
Ye Merry Olde Upskirt Traffic
Back in November, when I first had the silly idea of grabbing the “Kate Middleton upskirt photo” Google-bomb (I blame John Hawkins and his Linkiest aggregator site for the inspiration), I little imagined how traffic would surge on the royal wedding day.
EXCLUSIVE: Royal Wedding Photo
Guarantee no other site on the Internet has this one: That’s my 8-year-old daughter Reagan Elizabeth, who got up at 4 a.m. to watch coverage of the royal wedding. Note the tiara. We call her “Princess.” You should hit Ye Merry Olde Tip Jar. UPDATE: From Her Royal Majesty: The Queen has today been pleased […]
Is America Ready for the Return of National Offend a Feminist Week?
Yes, it’s true: The third annual celebration begins Monday, May 2, and I’ve begun preparing for the occasion by accumulating vintage images of happy housewives from the Dark Ages of Patriarchal Oppression.

It’s as if we have taken a long round-trip back to 1979. We are not surprised that a Marist poll shows approval for […]
VIDEO: Herman Cain Says, ‘Secure the Border. Not Pretend That We Want to Secure the Border — Secure the Border‘
Nicholas Ballasy of CNSNews asked Herman Cain whether Mexican drug cartels should be declared foreign terrorist organizations. Cain agreed — “because we cannot become a lawless nation” — and then explained his four-point position on border security: “Empower the states to do what the federal government won’t do, can’t do — empower the states.

Foreskin Fetishists, Again
Really, are we surprised by the news that San Francisco wants to outlaw circumcision? Because to develop a distinct preference for either the circumcised or uncircumcised penis, you would probably have to do a good bit of comparison shopping. It would appear that some people — perhaps the sort of people one finds in San Francisco […]
Before Her Arrest, Nicole Sandler Smeared Allen West on Radio Show
Great catch by Brian Maloney at the Radio Equalizer: Former Air America host Nicole Sandler was guest-hosting for liberal colleague Randi Rhodes just hours before her arrest Tuesday at a town-hall meeting with Rep. Allen West (R-FL22). She unleashed a rant in which she called West a “misogynistic teabagger” — and urged her listeners to […]
