Another slam from the DCCC
Monday, June 21st, 2010The old saying, “With friends like this, who needs enemies?” comes to mind when I recently dealt with the DCCC. You see, I took the “Don’t Ask Don’t Give” pledge from AmericaBlog.com. It means that I will not give money to the DNC, DSCC, or the DCCC until I think that there is actual movement [...]
Underneath the talking points lay hate
Monday, April 26th, 2010Reposted from sister blog BuryingTheLead.com
There is something to be said about the Republican party starting with the 2008 election, and that is their connection to violent speech. Everyone remembers Palin’s comments during the 2008 election cycle where she claimed Barack Obama “palled around with terrorists“, and the fact that she didn’t [...]
Unemployement benefits and the big “FU!”
Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010Like many Americans, I have been watching the Senate wrangle with the issue of unemployment benefits, and the detestable act that Kentucky Senator Bunning has committed in denying benefits be continued.

Democrats, upon hearing Senator Kennedy has died: He was the lion of the Senate. He was the reason so [...]
Add Vermont to the list!
Tuesday, April 7th, 2009As promised, Vermont’s Republican Governor Jim Douglas vetoed civil marriage equality for all Vermont residents. But this morning, the Vermont House and Senate have both voted to override the veto. This means Vermont is the fourth state to guarantee equal protection to gays and lesbians. No longer are gays and lesbians second-class citizens in Vermont. [...]
The best “Democrat versus Republican” compare and contrast list ever!
Wednesday, September 10th, 2008You gotta love DemocraticUnderground.com. There are some awesome posts over there, but nothing compares to the list found here. To quote a couple of my favorites:
* If you grow up in Hawaii you’re “exotic.”
* Grow up in Alaska eating mooseburgers, you’re the quintessential “American story.”
* If you are a Democratic male candidate who [...]
