President Obama visited families of the victims of the Oregon shooting last Friday. There were protest. Why would anyone protest the president visiting families to express his condolences? Why indeed? Because they're mad the president wants to take away their guns. The protesters speak of their gun and killing furry animals culture and they believe... Continue Reading →
Meet The New Boss
Same as the old boss. What's a gaffe in Washington? When a politician accidentally speaks the truth. Examples are Republicans admitting that voter ID laws are only created to decrease votes for Democrats, or when Mitch McConnell admitted Senate and House Republicans only interest was to make Obama a one-term president. Then there was that... Continue Reading →
Paging Doctor Bigot
Dr. Ben Carson made some statements Sunday that he would never vote for a Muslim president. He went on to say that the religion is not consistent with the U.S. Constitution. He's right. The Muslim religion is not consistent with our Constitution. Either is Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism or Voodoo. Thomas Jefferson wrote in 1821 that Virginia's... Continue Reading →
The Republican’s Monster
I'm hearing a lot of Republicans complain about Donald Trump. The funny thing is, some of the complaints are coming from the most conservative of them. It doesn't dawn on them they created this monster. They've built a party with an atmosphere very cordial for racism, sexism, misogyny and xenophobia. It started with the Southern...

Hillary’s Apology
I don't like the direction Republicans want to take us. I think that's been made pretty clear by now. That doesn't mean I love every Democrat. I'm not excited about any of the Democratic Party candidates. I don't think Hillary Clinton is an honest person. She's not honest and she comes with a bit of sleaze.... Continue Reading →
Paying For The Wall
The Donald Trump Xenophobia Campaign isn't just rolling along, it's steam rolling. It's gaining so much support that the other GOP candidates are competing for racist and outrageous comments. Wisconsin governor Scott Walker says we should build a wall on the Canadian border. I think if a Republican wins the presidency then Canada will want... Continue Reading →
The Biggest Anchor Baby
Jeb Bush used the term "Anchor Baby" and is confused when people find it offensive. He says it's "not his term." He's probably surprised there's any sort of dust up because he didn't say "Beaner Baby." The term "Anchor Baby" is used to refer to a child born to a noncitizen mother in a country...

Little Snot Machine
You never hear the Pro Life crowd cry about poor children starving. They don't think the government should fund their school lunch. They want to cut education (so they stand a chance to be as dumb as they are). They definitely do not want them to have sex education in schools. They don't want them... Continue Reading →
Republican Minority Outreach
If there's a black person at a Republican event then they're on stage. There's rarely any in the audience and if there are, they'll be sure to spotlight them on camera. The GOP relies on the "black friend" tactic because they don't have any, though they try to convince the rest of us they do.... Continue Reading →
Sexism and Misogyny In The GOP
Did you see the debate? Megyn Kelly asked Donald Trump about his horrible comments toward women. Kelly said "You've called women you don't like fat pigs, dogs, slobs and disgusting animals." Trump responded that he's only used those terms on Rosie O'Donnell, as if that's OK. Kelly pointed out that he's used those slurs on other... Continue Reading →
