Republicans have been getting their news from clowns for years As @LOLGOP, I try to use GOP tactics to mock the GOP and GOP tactics. Basically I’m an enraged, ranting megalomaniac—at least on Twitter. Over 60,000 fine Twitter users follow LOLGOP. That’s more than follow the corporate sponsors of the tea party movement @FreedomWorks and four-times more than a likely […]

The era of the big middle class is over Mitt Romney is now delving into science fiction. After a successful hostile takeover of the tea party and what remains of the Republican Party, he’s convinced he is ready for his greatest illusion: convincing America that what we need is George W. Bush on Steroids. He’s so confident he made an […]

He’s the Las Vegas of anti-gay equality Here are the facts about the President’s record on gay rights: No President has hired more openly gay or lesbian Americans for high profile positions than Barack Obama. Ending “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” was a historic achievement for equality. By refusing to defend the Defense of Marriage Act, the President makes the constitutional […]

Millionaires to be blissfully unaffected. During last week’s debate on the Buffett Rule, the GOP complained again and again that the rule was a political ploy because it would only raise a few billion dollars every year. Also it would hurt the economy and possibly turn Grover Norquist into Grover Norquist HULK who bashes Republican brains with primary challengers made […]

This economy we ruined. These wars we didn’t end. These deficits we created over 8 years. How dare this President not fix everything immediately! When Mitt Romney realized he could only get the Republicans behind him by being George W. Bush’s biggest apologist, he must have known that would make him look like a fool. How could he defend going […]

This is no War on Women. It’s simply a uteri-policing action. Reince Priebus is a Republican from Wisconsin, where they apparently grow conservatives so bland it almost blurs their extremism. Like Scott Walker and Paul Ryan, Priebus uses a condescending tone and denial to make a case for policies that exclusively benefit a group I like to call “rich, penised […]

Wait. This guy gets paid for this???

I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking that Trayvon Martin was shot to death a month ago. Turns out you’re wrong. According to radio Hate Show host Rush Limbaugh, he was actually “over-zealoused” to death. Who knew?

When Mitt lies, Atlas shrugs You know the GOP’s favorite Karl Rove tactic: Take an opponent’s strength and make it his weakness. This is how Vietnam evader George W. Bush beat war hero John Kerry. This is why Sarah Palin, who was vetted as well as a pair of shoes purchased online, says President Obama wasn’t properly vetted. This blurs […]

The Hate Show gets its comeuppance Well, well, well. This is interesting. From my inbox this morning: As of this morning, 50 companies and two radio stations have dropped Rush Limbaugh’s radio show. Even one organization that gets free advertising on his show is demanding to be dropped. So many advertisers have fled Limbaugh’s show that yesterday, 77 of 86 […]

Exactly the same, only different Mitt Romney has been going to town frightening anyone who will listen about how President Obama’s plan to deal with the threat of a nuclear-armed Iran is endangering the USA. He’s been saying on the stump, “If Barack Obama gets re-elected, Iran will have a nuclear weapon.” We can’t risk that, he said, so we […]

Another one bites the dust.. A second radio station has dropped Rush Limbaugh’s Hate Show. It’s WBEC 95.9FM/1420AM out of Pittsfield, Massachusetts. Their statement is worth a read: A commercial radio station in Pittsfield, Massachusetts _ 96.9 [sic] FM, WBEC – says it is dropping the Rush Limbaugh show in the wake of Limbaugh’s comments on contraception last week.
