Newt Gingrich FAIL — Oops, He Did It Again!
Remember when we told you about Newtie awarding Entrepreneur of the Year to a porn exec? Well, he’s at it again, except this time making the owner of one of Dallas’ premiere “gentlemen’s clubs” the Entrepreneur of the Year:
Day 3 C&S
I had a real craving today and as the weekend gets closer the cravings are getting more pronounced. I really wanted a beer today and felt my body really looking forward to Friday. I pass by Brewer’s Outlet everyday and the past few weeks have been stopping in on Friday’s to grab a case for […]
More Like This, Please
Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL) gave a speech in the House that got the Republicans in a tizzy, because he’s so mean! Republicans are predictably and tiresomely fuming over Rep. Alan Grayson’s remark yesterday that “Republicans want you to die quickly,” and with Rep. Jimmy Duncan (R-TN) declaring: “That is about the most mean-spirited partisan statement […]
Carper’s Co-Op Compromise Plan
Tom Carper is reportedly floating a new/old compromise with Democratic leadership: Sen. Tom Carper (D-Del.) is quietly talking with the Senate Democratic leadership and Finance Committee members about an alternative to both the government insurance option and the nonprofit insurance cooperative. In a one-page document he began circulating last week, Carper suggests giving states the […]

I mean wow. Just wow. But the right doesn’t insight violence…nahhhhhhh From John L. Perry at Newsmax: There is a remote, although gaining, possibility America’s military will intervene as a last resort to resolve the Obama problem. Don’t dismiss it as unrealistic.

Shhhh don’t tell anyone Mr. Moore, Democrats are crooks too…
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sh0cBFZ1FXY[/youtube]Believe it or not I got this from pube. I guess he supports Moore. I’m sure he was a big fan of Fahrenheit 9/11 too. Crooks are crooks and need to be outed. Regardless of party. That’s what seperates us from the GOP and Republicans in general. go see the Movie, it comes out tomorrow.
Wednesday Open Thread
Wednesday version of your open thread. Today we see Tom DeLay dancing the tango. I’ll say this – it’s slightly better than last week but still pretty terrible.
Sanity From the Federal Bench
When I discussed legalizing sports betting with Governor Markell a few months ago I asked what the chances were that we would be legally allowed to do it. He told me that they had submitted the question to the State Supreme Court for review. That report came back with some positive results for the administration, suggesting that it would be legal by the state constitution.
Mike Castle Watch
Once again we’re reaching another Mike Castle-imposed Senate run deadline. Any new information? New tea leaves to read? What about you Beau Biden? You’re back in Delaware – are you going to run? What’s a political junkie to do while they make their backroom deals decisions.
Chart of the Day
The latest Kaiser Family Foundation poll is out and the news is pretty good, actually:
On Tom Carper and Filibusters and Questions to Be Answered
If he has any shred of integrity remaining, Tom Carper will have no choice but to oppose a filibuster of health insurance reform, even if it contains a robust public option. Why? Because that has been his position on other key votes, even those that he allegedly opposes. Take his vote on Supreme Court Justice […]
Conservative Id
This is becoming depressingly standard by now. Another wingnut columnist, John L. Perry, lets loose his inner rebellion fantasy in the pages of Newsmax. There is a remote, although gaining, possibility America’s military will intervene as a last resort to resolve the “Obama problem.” Don’t dismiss it as unrealistic. America isn’t the Third World. If […]
