Obstructionism Is Patriotic

Three cheers for right-wing obstructionism. Can we have more, please, and louder? This week’s unanimous Supreme Court ruling on President Obama’s illegal recess appointments is a double smackdown.

Greedy Group to Sue Chief Wahoo for $9 Billion

After the federal government defined petty tyranny by pulling the trademark from the Washington Redskins because ideologically deranged bureauweenies regard the name as politically incorrect, it was easy to predict that moonbats would be coming after Chief Wahoo’s scalp.

Warren Positioned To Take Advantage Of Clinton’s Flaws

Paging Elizabeth Warren: This is your moment. In 2007, Democrats were delirious with rage about the Iraq war.
