The finger pointing began even before the election last night was concluded. Whether Coakley’s loss was the result of the White House or her lackluster campaign entirely misses the point. Both camps consists of politicians so they cannot go where I am going to go. The fault lies not in either but with the nihilism [...]

There were many offensive signs at the so-called 9-12 rallies, so named as they were supposedly catching the spirit of unity immediately following the attacks on 9/11/2001. One sign, however, crossed an even worse line, inciting domestic terrorism.

The astroturf organization, Conservatives for Patients’ Rights (CPR), started a backlash across the Pond yesterday.

She had in her car the arsenal pictured to the right. Of course there will always be the unhinged and the mentally ill who listen to the crazy conspiracies [...]

By now everybody and their brother have commented on the press conference that was so incoherent literally no one knows what it was about. But that’s typical for all things Sarah. So, instead of making a prediction that will most likely be wrong, I will instead project what I hope the press conference means. I [...]
