I know... but that's their M.O. Sad, ain't it? That nutball Alex Jones even mentioned "rioting" EVER SO QUICKLY in the Piers interview. He never wants to dwell on it, because of course, then the jig would be up.

It's beyond sad.

Nasty stuff from Virginia, yet again.

Ron Fournier, who has moved his agenda from AP to National Journal, gets the divide and conquer ready. The media loves this type of story, so we may hear a lot more of it.

I think this article is hilarious. It's been blowing up all over the social media sphere about Michelle Obama, a goddess, rolling her eyes at Boehner. She should've punched him IMO.

Barack seemed to be laughing at the time she did it... so to me, her eye roll probably was one that meant "Men!"

Georgia senator Saxby Chambliss is retiring. This was a surprise, but the seat will likely stay Republican.

I'll always remember him for the ugly ads he ran against Max Cleland.

Good riddance. They represent the absolute worst of punditry.

This makes me very angry. If this passes, there are few better ways to guarantee teenagers will kill themselves.

While they're working on the illegal immigration issue, they need to also work on the legal immigration issue. Trying to stay in the US as a legal immigrant is an extremely tedious process and getting a green card and then trying to become a citizen is an even worse issue.

RIP Ed Koch. He was a great Mayor, often very funny, and a perfect fit for NY. He had political foes as varied as Jesse Jackson and Rudy Guiliani.

I dunno if Jesse Jackson was so much a foe as someone Ed Koch ruthlessly attacked for no reason... Ed Koch definitely had a sense of humor I find appealing but I find he is being whitewashed to an annoying extent now that he's dead.

An era of politics that is bizarrely so recent but seems so long ago. When war-crippled Democrats and people who actually served could be easily swift-boated as un-American by Republicans who did not serve and refused to defend themselves. I am happy that era has passed.
