    militia-madness is back

    And Sarah Palin is their poster girl:

    Federal agents have broken up a plot by two neo-Nazi skinheads to assassinate Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama and shoot or decapitate 102 black people, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives said Monday.

    In court records unsealed Monday in U.S. District Court in Jackson, Tenn., federal agents said they disrupted plans to rob a gun [...]

    i don’t want to hear the name tawana brawley ever again

    And I’m going to make a point of remembering the name Ashley Todd.

    Seems to me that since Cindy McCain grossed over $4.1 million last year (and over $6 million in 2006), John should have asked her to pick up this [...]



    Well Said Colin Powell

    It is hard to forgive Colin Powell for his misguided UN speech that helped take us to war. But this “straight talk” from Meet the Press is a first step.

    Powell’s words about McCain were gratuitous at best. Bet Papa Bush is pissed. Powell’s statements about Muslim prejudice, exhibited extensively by many of those associated with the Republican Party and [...]

    The crap is about to hit the fan…

    John Cleese of Monty Python’s Flying Circus says he used to think “Michael Palin was the funniest Palin”:

    For those of you who do not know Michael Palin, here is Michael Palin for President:
