Random RecitalsAs democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.

Article by John on January 27th, 2010 at 10:03 am This is very unlikely because we either have to Change Congress first or expect the individual states which are also corporate controlled to call for a constitutional convention, but one can still hope.

Article by Angie in WA State on January 23rd, 2010 at 6:13 am Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL) has been less than a quiet first term Congressman, to say the least. He shook up the MSM when he stood on the House floor and called Republicans out on Healthcare Reform, wherein he said, “the Republican healthcare plan is: Don’t get sick. They also have a backup plan: If you do get sick, die quickly. This was quite an introduction [...]

Article by missy on October 1st, 2009 at 10:17 am I’m sure by now you’ve read or heard about John Perry’s cris de coeur begging the military to take care of “the Obama problem.” Some, like Jurassic Pork, have even questioned whether Perry is a real person or just some military officer in drag, projecting the tea-baggers’ “take our country back” screed through a civilian straw man. Unfortunately, Perry is a real person: [...]
Article by missy on September 11th, 2009 at 12:09 pm The South Carolina Democratic Party should assign round-the-clock tails to the Congressman to shout out “You lie!” every time that miserable asshole makes a declarative sentence. It’s jerks like Wilson that are the reason I haven’t been posting of late. I signed up for Facebook about a month ago, after getting pinged by just about everyone who attended my high school reunion this summer – over, [...]
Article by missy on July 20th, 2009 at 9:08 am Jill points us to Ross Douthat’s latest bit of illogic: By [the year 2028], according to recent Supreme Court jurisprudence, some kinds of affirmative action may no longer be permissible.

Article by missy on June 3rd, 2009 at 4:48 pm Gay marriage legislation became law in New Hampshire this afternoon. Gov. John Lynch signed the bills just after 5:20 p.m. before dozens of enthusiastic supporters of same-sex marriage. New Hampshire’s law takes effect Jan. 1. HB 73, compromise legislation demanded by the governor, was passed by a vote of 14-10 in the Senate and 198-176 in the House today. HB 73 (text), was an add-on to [...]
Article by missy on June 2nd, 2009 at 12:17 pm Reading the comments from wingnuts on the assassination of Dr. George Tiller, you’d think that he was mowing down healthy infants in their hospital nursery bassinets with an AK-47. Nowhere in those comments is there any mention of the mothers who desperately wanted their babies, but who were forced into Dr. Tiller’s care by genetic or gestational defects that defeat even modern medicine’s ability to cure. Take, [...] | |
