If you call the Family Research Center a hate group, you’re calling Christianity a hate group, because what they do is tout Christian values – John Hawkins (@johnhawkinsrwn) August 16, 2012   I’m not going to do the same thing that liberals do after every shooting and accuse them of being responsible for the kook […]

The government wants to control what TV you watch, what light bulbs you have in your house, how big a soda you can buy, and apparently,: you can’t even feed poor kids in this country without having some useless government official sticking his nose into it. Angela Prattis has spent part of the summer distributing meals […]

I’ll be the first to admit that I don’t have a particularly high opinion of Mitt Romney’s skills as a politician, but: this may be the single most clever thing he’s done since he came on the national scene. “There’s another promise he made. You know that every time you get a paycheck you see there’s […]

.@speakerboehner Calling people who opposed TARP knuckle-draggers says a lot about your mentality & none of it’s good.

In fact, the last person to win that […]

This: says it all. Republicans and Democrats spent last summer battling how best to save $2.1 trillion over the next decade. They are spending this summer battling how best to not save $2.1 trillion over the next decade. In the course of that year, the U.S. government’s fiscal gap – the true measure of the nation’s […]

Rod Blagojevich: said he did: and it sounds like everyone investigating the case bent over backwards not to find out if it is true. An upcoming book about Rod Blagojevich says undercover recordings caught the former governor saying he had heard that convicted influence peddler Antoin “Tony” Rezko secretly channeled $25,000 in cash to Barack Obama, but […]

“From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs” – as long as he doesn’t need more than 5 million dollars a year. So says economic illiterate: Hamilton Nolan at Gawker. Let’s have a maximum annual income of, oh, $5 million, pegged to inflation. All income above that would be taxed at 99 […]
