What could be better than learning most of the hetero-sexual marriages in Texas are illegal, as deemed by Texas law? A close second, is seeing Fox "News" trot out their "video crowd library" for Palin, so soon after they'd just apologized after getting busted last week for "mixing up" "Tea-bagger" crowd footage, with more robust campaign footage...purely accidental you know.Accidents just continue to happen with these guys. Sadly, and Finally, Bill O'Reilly is taking on the Southern Poverty Law Center. In his grief, condemning anyone and everyone for CNN's firing of Lou Dobbs.



Best Comeuppance: Barbara Ann Radnofsky, had the job of informing Texans that their 2005 amendment to ban same sex and civil unions - you know, to preserve the sanctity of marriage between one miserable man and woman. Most of all, it was written to exclude those of the same sex who wish to enter into this legal contract betwen themselves and the state. The odd thing is that the amendment is worded in such a way as to make the bastions of hetero society illegally married - too! For once, they are in the same leaky boat as the same sex couples whom they were so eager to leave out, that they didn't double check the wording on their law of exclusion, which is shown here! Maybe understanding will reign, and there will be an enormous mass marriage for the previously excluded, and re-marriage for the accidental lawbreakers ceremony - and teach the world to sing !

Best repeated self-revelation: Who could forget just days ago when Fox news was caught enlarging the crowds ofa fun rally, with badly edited clips from the McCain campaign? Apologies were given, but I've got to tell you that I'm not so certain Fox is sincere! When Sarah Palin very recently was drawing more flies than crowds, once again..the mobs at her book signing looked very familiar. Fox News needs some different crowd scenes, I'm beginning to spot my favorite sign carrying rally attendees, tea-baggers, or book lines...as the case may be.

Best total inability to understand the 1st amendment: Bill O'Reilly, perhaps distraught because he doesn't need yet more competition on Fox, is on the attack! Richard Cohen of the southern poverty law center is his recent target. Watch as he rips into Cohen and the Southern Poverty Law Center, somehow feeling that because Dobbs was fired, that they are fascists. Then again, maybe he's just trying to get out of the bet he made, watch and see what you think! Facebook | Digg | Reddit | Stumble | Buzz it! | Email Article |

"I can envision a couple of different combination's, if ever I were to be in a position to really even seriously consider running for anything in the future, and I’m not there yet. But Glenn Beck I have great respect for. He’s a hoot. He gets his message across in such a clever way. And he’s so bold – I have to respect that. He calls it like he sees it, and he’s very, very, very effective." Sarah Palin at Newsmax

This Tea Bagger ticket is not the wet dream of Barack Obama and every Democrat alive, but the credible reality for THESE KIND OF PEOPLE.

I would rather kill myself that read that book! I hate that book!" Seemed to sum up the thoughts of a group of first graders on Sarah Palin's book.

Beyond the bookstores were Sarah Palin IS NOT present signing trailer jacks her fans drag in there is little excitement for her book other than from the media pandering to Tea Baggers to help their Ford Truck and Hostess accounts.

One thing to not lose track of is that Sarah Palin represents the average American.  Worship of an intolerant well armed free market Jesus and a visceral all consuming hatred of anyone smarter than they are. That's all fine and well as long as we don't end up with someone like that in the White House. Been there done that for 8 long years. Facebook | Digg | Reddit | Stumble | Buzz it! | Email Article |

The Anti - Defamation League calls Glenn Beck "The most important mainstream media figure who has repeatedly helped to stoke the fires of anti government anger." Not exactly a shining recommendation for anyone but Sarah Palin. Palin declares Glenn Beck to be the perfect companion for her presidential run in 2012! After all, "He's a hoot!" says Alaska's half term governor, and McCain campaign scourge Sarah Palin. What better position for the teary eyed trouble maker, than Vice President Beck? It's been over a year since we had anyone in the White House who was "a hoot" without meaning to be.



Assuming President Obama doesn't become fed up by 2012, the year Mayan calendars and other sooth-sayers say all manner of disasters will happen, it would seem that President Obama is safe in his current elected position. The only danger exists if by some chance he realizes he doesn't need this stress, his days of gracious suffering of fools begin to dwindle, and the divided Republican party actually allows this pair to run, not having found a charismatic and crooked VP candidate who can tolerate Newtie. They may not have a choice, it depends entirely upon which side grows larger, the "Tea-party" crowd, or the more traditional...(we party in private,for $25,000 a plate), Republicans. As we can already see, Palin makes or recreates the story as she goes along. If she sees herself as a fool in retrospect, she merely changes the story to make others responsible for making her look badly. We all know Katie Couric was a tiger lying in wait with a "gotcha" question when she asked "do you read, and what?" So too, with the foreign policy question. It's as if her answer about seeing Putin "rear his head" existed only in Tina Fey's monologue! More frightening, her fans viewed the entire thing, and seem to believe her revisions!

Why Beck? He..sniffle..sob, dabbing his eyes, owes it to her! After all, Palin convinced him that HE wasn't a fringe nutjob, but the others were "out there," making them the sane mainstream. So what if they disregard global warming, cut out or privatize social security and medicare, remove the thinning barriers between church and state, convince their followers that FEMA which was inept in New Orleans, will set up detention camps for Obama dissenters? This is what it's all about, America - where a millionaire High School graduate, with only radio and TV experience, which elsewhere would be viewed as a joke at best, has a chance to shadow box at socialism and communism because Sarah Palin says he's a hoot. Though he has intentionally misinformed viewers in a successfull bid to raise ratings, he has helped to breed distrust and spread hate as a little side bonus, ain't that a kick in the pants! More tears..."I'm just a guy...I'm sorry, I'm just a guy who cares so very an awful lot about my country." Aw golly gee whiz, that - with a patented Palin wink, and I'll be vomiting in the aisles!

Oh please! Carrie Prejean is prosecution evidence that beauty contestants should simply strut their stuff and keep their mouths firmly clamped so that men may retain their fantasies, I say that as a feminist. Today, she's pushing her book, and revealing that the bad which has befallen her is because...wait for it.....like the delicate flower Ann Coulter, she is the target of a vast liberal conspiracy!



Now that you know about the dark forces,I think you'll agree that it's astounding that Carrie Prejean managed to work in so many media stops today. It's a miracle once you learn that the media is controlled by liberals, and they're all out to get her. The poor woman, so much has befallen her! She's had to drop her million dollar lawsuit against the pageant owners, who had graciously paid for her bouncy bosoms. The silly people expected Prejean to make a few appearances with 'the girls'after winning the title. When she couldn't be bothered to perform her duties they fired her, again, not her fault, it's a fee speech issue. Her nude photos took the wind out of that million dollar windfall, and she's not about to let her solo sex video get in the way of book sales. In no way do either of her photo/film excursions take away from her wholesome image of herself. At one interview after another, all questions led back to two places....her book title, and the horrible conspiracy against conservative women. She was "punished, fired, and brutally attacked." She is Lady Liberty speaking out for the right to step on your own tongue and blame someone else for the results! "Americans should have free speech, I've been punished" she proclaims again and again. "There is a campaign to silence me." she adds ominously, to hear her she believes a vast media conspiracy revolves around Carrie Prejean.

Don't give up on this video, the best is yet to come, she bemoans her treatment by Keith Olbermann to a comperable but fictional situation involving Sonia Sotomayor and Michelle Obama. Prejean may have found her voice, but she's still out of her league. Facebook | Digg | Reddit | Stumble | Buzz it! | Email Article |

Former McCain campaign manager Steve Schmidt said that Sarah Palin is a liar and her book is fiction! He's not the only one, former staffers are coming out with damning evidence, which oddly bothers Palin not in the least. It is accurately stated that she lies and doesn't seem to care if anyone catches her at it. A perky lil' wink will fix everything - in Sarah Palin world.



John McCain had asked his former aides to ignore any remarks they heard from Sarah Palin. With the publication of her new new book...rather, the one which bears her name, the gloves have come flying off as lie after lie forces them to correct her fantasy life. It's amazingly easy, as her printed word is easily proven false by a campaign's worth of email and memos. She simply doesn't care, perhaps she has the concept of fiction and non-fiction confused? No, I didn't think so either. Following is just a taste of this video in which Craig crawford msnbc analyst, joins Keith to discuss this outpouring of umbrage, from a time and a person McCain and staffers would have been very happy to forget about and never mention again.

Nicole Wallace who was Sarah Palin's Chief Handler, as V.P. and one I'd assume would have grown closer to her than some, obviously harbors no false loyalty when it comes to falsehoods. She calls the book ."just fabricated." Another staffer said there was no truth or semblance to any conversation I ever had with her. More staffers weigh in with revealing comments. After all, they were accused of being inept and incapable of handling her, as if anyone were capable of the latter.

This grows even more fun as memos appear which completely negate Palin's blase' comments on her Oprah Winfrey appearance, where she made it sound as if she were ready to appear on SNL and just have some fun! A-hem...the memo, loosely translated, reveals Palin calling the SNL cast; "gross" - "these folks r whack I didn't know it was as bad as it is. What's the upside of giving them any celebrity venue a ratings boost?" She then went on SNL refusing to say a line written for her, referring to the brilliant job Tina Fey had done. Quite simply, all she would have had to read was "I like the way Tina Fey has portrayed me." Even the queen of the liars couldn't - or wouldn't do that line!

Fox News and the rest of the Republican propaganda machine is claiming that Doug Hoffman may have won the 23rd District and will soon take office from Democrat Bill Owens.

The Tea Party Barney Fife of Upstate New York conceded too early it seems. It was not a 5000 vote loss, but 3000 which would call for a recount.

There are also over 10,000 absentee ballots uncounted, most from the the military who Fox News says are overwhelmingly Fox News conservatives.

The flaw in this seems to be that after about half the absentee ballots have now been  counted they reflect the reality of the general election rather than the reality of Fox News. NY 23rd Update at Kos

Anyone smart enough to understand Fox News is not fair and balanced beware!

Though it is possible to get past Sean Hannity's dull knife patriotism, his over the top military jingoism and that stupid look on his face, when one adds all that to the dominate "fear factor" of the show, it can cause one to fall into alcoholism, cause your stuffed animals to hang themselves and send your children to the Social Security office.

After a total boycott of CNN for two years because they gave ugly White-wing racist like Lou Dobbs an hour of their network every night, I was able this morning to switch from MSNBC conservative "Morning Joe" to an actual news show at CNN. I even saw a clip of my long lost friend Christiane Amanpour! Wonderful Morning!



Lou Dobbs quit CNN last night because he wants to move somewhere he can "express himself in the most honest and direct manner" a place were discussion of the issues "is not expressed in partisanship or ideology."

I wonder where he is going?

The only place I can think of that is honest, free of ideology and partisanship, fair and balanced enough for Lou to call Mexicans "wetbacks" and President Obama a "communist" would be Fox News. Lou to FINALLY take his rightful place beside Brit Hume, Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck and Bill O'Reilly where he belongs. Though he may be relegated over to FOX NEWS' ugly little sister, FBN channel with Neil "Milton Friedman" Cavuto, "Nappy" Don Imus, and of course Jim Stossel who is believed to be the second coming of Ayn Rand.

Excerpt from GOP wins could threaten recovery By PAUL KRUGMAN

Last Thursday there was a rally outside the U.S. Capitol to protest pending health care legislation, featuring the kinds of things we've grown accustomed to, including large signs showing piles of bodies at Dachau with the caption “National Socialist Healthcare.”

The key thing to understand about that rally is that it wasn't a fringe event. It was sponsored by the House Republican leadership — in fact, it was officially billed as a GOP press conference. Senior lawmakers were in attendance, and apparently had no problem with the tone of the proceedings.

As we can see from the health care vote over the weekend, the moderate solution - in lieu of some sort of single payer system enjoyed by the entire rest of the world - of a voluntary PUBLIC OPTION which about 5% of Americans would buy into has been defined as a GOVERNMENT TAKEOVER of our economy. [If you haven't realized yet, GOVERNMENT and PUBLIC are Republican code words for BLACK and HISPANIC.]

The Health care bill in the House was a squeaker passing by only 5 votes with the Senate version to be filibustered by an Independent moderate, Senator Joe Lieberman.

Speaking of silly old Jewish Bubbies, unlike most Bluedog Democrats, Lieberman is not going to destroy health care reform out of fear that a majority of his Connecticut constituents are White-Wing tea baggers. Rather he is making his stand for the same reason he makes every stand he takes - how many Muslims can we kill. Though I am not quite sure how he ties that into health care, I have no doubt AT ALL it's how his brain works. 

The 2010 election will have some very discouraging factors at play for Democrats:

1) The statistical fact that the party in power loses seats in off year elections.

2) The excitement of the 2008 election has subsided and the young and minorities will have better things to do than vote.

3) Unemployment will still be hovering around 10% giving moderates the urge to throw the bastards out and there being more Democrat bastards than Republican bastards.

4) These KIND OF PEOPLE who carry posters of the Holocaust to define health care and the President who hate the damn GOVERNMENTS! and the damn PUBLICS! so much their hair bleeds - are going to crawl out from under their rocks come Hell, High water or an early Mayan end to the world to go vote.

Put it all together and the Democrats 10 seat advantage in the Senate and 40 in the House are going to be will greatly reduced.

This will make governing almost impossible, as Paul Krugman puts, Washington will become Californiafied, where the GOP is strong enough to keep anyone form doing anything at all.

This all goes far beyond cutting off one's nose to spite one's face. These Tea Baggers with the support of the White Wing GOP would rather bring America to its knees than hand it over to those damn GOVERNMENTS! and PUBLICS! You betcha that's what this is all about. 

This of course is only a short term win for them. As has always been the case throughout human history, THESE KIND OF PEOPLE do indeed have surges, but in the long run we do move forward rather than backwards.
