GOP Health Fail

The GOP is campaigning to repeal Obama’s health care overhaul bill, calling it socialist and a job killer. To support this, they quote polls that show that Americans oppose the reform bill by numbers like 40% against to 30% in favor (with 30% neutral). So it sounds like Americans want the GOP to kill Obamacare. […]

Tax Breaks for Koch Industries?

In the Republican’s new “Pledge To America” they say: We will allow small business owners to take a tax deduction equal to 20 percent of their business income. However, there are two common forms of “small business” that doesn’t pay any taxes already. Instead, in Subchapter S corporations and Limited Liability Companies and Partnerships (LLCs), […]

The Attack of the Trojan MILFs!

© Jen Sorensen Michelle Bachmann, Sarah Palin, and now Christine O’Donnell — is this what is going on? I guess Ronald Reagan completely legitimized actors as politicians, so now the Republicans are working on sexy women as politicians? Watch this video about the “Top 10 Mama Grizzlies“. By the way, no comments about the fact […]

Ironic News Roundup

Just some quick notes: First, the only thing comforting about the thought that the Republicans will gain power in the upcoming mid-term elections is that that just means that they will be shooting themselves in the foot again. Just look what they did with 8 years with Bush as president, control of the Supreme Court, […]

How the Cookie Crumbles

The Girl Scouts allow homosexuals and atheists to join their ranks, and they have become a pro-abortion, feminist training corps. If the Girl Scouts of America can’t get back to teaching real character, perhaps it will be time to look for our cookies elsewhere. — Hans Zeiger, Republican candidate for Washington State Representative, who recently […]

The Politics of Distraction

I have started wondering why Republicans decided to make a big deal out of some Islamic cultural center being built in an old Burlington Coat Factory store site. After all, it is pretty much a non-issue, since it would be clearly unconstitutional to legally block them from building it. And then it hit me. The […]

A Quale in Hand, searches for Bush

Ben Quayle, the son of former VP Dan Quale, is running for Congress, and I guess he has to do something to get out from under the cloud of his infamously idiotic father, but I’m not sure if this is the right way to do it. In his new campaign ad, the first words out […]
