This morning’s newspaper again reminds us of the hypocrisy of the Conservative movement. Here are just three examples covering their hypocrisy about racial profiling and abortion.
1. Charles Krauthammer, who reminds us today of his medical credentials and his background in psychiatry, is telling us that racial profiling is nothing to be ashamed of, it should [...]

It was a heady moment. This week Eric Cantor, leading GOP House member, said that if an election was held today, the GOP would take control of the House.
And he might be right … if an election was held today.
But I have sad news for Mr. Cantor. There is no election today. There is no [...]

If the Republican Party existed except as a club of groupies androadies for the rabble-rousers on radio and cable, it would rouseitself from its narcotized self-satisfaction of second best and give aspeech that the Turfers, Birthers Tea-Baggers and all the otheramateurs of dissent must sit down and listen to the reason ofstatesmanship or else leave [...]

What does it say about a country that prospers in times of war?
What does it say about people when they love a wartime President and detest a peaceful President?
What does it say about Americans when we question the origin of birth of the first non-white President?
This week tcotreport.com featured a poll on their front page. [...]

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Climate change legislation pending in Congress would cost U.S. households only about $175 annually in higher energy and consumer prices, far less than the $3,100 “burden” opponents have claimed would result, according [...]

The GOP has a problem with race.
Yes, yes, I know, anyone listening to Rush Limbaugh or Sean Hannity or G. Gordon Liddy or Newt Gingrich … well, you know … realize the GOP and conservatives have a race problem. The whole Sotomayor drama has been a perfect demonstration of how conservatives try to win an [...]

When George W. Bush was re-elected in 2004, a permanent Republican majority was plausible. Now Republicans appear to be going the way of the Whigs. What happened? The reason why a Republican majority was plausible was Bush’s strength with Hispanics (at least for a Republican).

Listening to conservatives lately, I’ve noticed a slight whining about their lot. No one listens to them, every time they think they’re pulling it together Obama pulls the rug out from under them. They keep calling for a “real” conservative revolution and people just yawn, moderate Republicans included.
Must be depressing.
But after thinking about it, I [...]

@kylesellers did not like the CNN poll I cited. He said it was like:
“Do you support Obama banning lollipops?”
It wasn’t. The CNN poll did not push poll by telling the people listening what the policies the President, the Democrats, or the Republicans had. They simply asked whether their policies were putting us on the right [...]
