May 21 · I am livid today at all the propaganda the wife of a former president is spreading right out in the open. I have been posting about it, posting her own words and those of her husband, the former president.
I am livid because despite my use of their own words, someone here said today that I have "demonstrated a disregard for journalistic integrity throughout this campaign."
Oh, really? Using someone's own words is lacking in integrity? Apparently it is okay to say that because it is st

Surely nothing that President Bush has done in his two wretched terms of office—not the invasion and destruction of Iraq, not the overturning of the five-centuries-old tradition of habeas corpus, not his authorization and encouragement of torture, not his campaign of domestic spying—nothing, can compare in its ugliness as his approval, as commander
May 22 · wwwThat incredible font of Patriotism Laura Ingraham has apparently responded to Keith Olbermann's taunt - "Why do you hate our troops" with the preceding video. Her claim here, using the site "Olbermannwatch" as her source is that Keith is a liar, and that he really did mean to insult our U.S. troops when he mentioned "Cold=Blooded Killers" in the Iraq War and wasn't simply throwing Bush's ridiculous rhetoric at the Knesset right back at him in reference to BlackWater.
As it was delibered Ke
May 22 · When I watched him tonight on Countdown, I was impressed with his explanation of the Scots Irish people. I have done a lot of genealogical research, and one, maybe two, of my lines came into the US through North Carolina. I have followed some as they traveled south west into Georgia and Alabama. They all ended up coming to Florida eventually.
I have read family books from others who have researched these lines, and they were a proud, strong, and may I say stubborn bunch. I am like Webb, I
May 22 · . I. OLBERMANN: Rachel, we‘re going to have to interrupt you
In their coverage of the Iowa Caucus, we can already see the script that the cast of players at General Electric’s number one propaganda outlet, MSNBC will be following this election season.

MATTHEWS:Rachel, and then Howard, I want you, and Pat, and, of course, Gene Robinson, all of you from your different perspectives, what is it about America that here we are in 2008, finally picking an African-American with a real sh
May 21 · I have often admitted to be being technology-challenged when it comes to finding things on the internetz – so I am hoping you Hillary supporters will be able to help me out.
I am trying to find actual quotes, statements, official declarations – via links to MSM appearances, newspaper or magazine articles, videotapes, whatever – to mount a defense of Hillary Clinton’s current positions based on the fact that she has held these positions not only before but throughout the primary process.

May 21 · The eugenics movement in the United States is a sordid story of unbounded arrogance, hypocrisy, classism, racism, and blatant disregard for the principles upon which our country was founded. Perhaps it would not be worth learning about if we as a nation were in no danger of repeating similar atrocities.
But it is worth learning about. Edwin Black, who previously documented , documents the sordid history of the U.S. eugenics movement in his 2003 book, “ – Eugenics and America’s Campaign to

So we blink, take a breath, stare once more at the vote total: 149 nay, 141 yea. War funding request denied!
This is a first, fleeting and fluky though it may be. Look quickly and imagine a Congress that doesn’t feed the war god every time it pounds the table. Look quickly and imagine what courage can accomplish. We can breach the fortress of special interests that is our government and let historic change flow in.
Well, maybe. This isn’t the
May 20 · Those are the words of the former Democratic president, Bill Clinton, which he used against his own party today.
LOUISVILLE, Kentucky - Democrats are acting more like Republicans by not counting the results of the Florida and Michigan primaries and by not seating those states’ party delegates, former President Bill Clinton said on Tuesday.
“The Republicans are supposed to be the people that don’t count votes in Florida, not Democrats,” said Clinton.
The January votes in Michigan and Flo
May 21 · I. BUCHANAN: I can’t tell you what I am going to do. Because MSNBC doesn’t allow us to endorse as you know, David. From MSNBC Super Tuesday Preview Coverage February 4, 2008
Pardon me while I crawl around on the floor and search for my ass, which I just laughed off.
There, that is better. What Pat Buchanan meant to say is MSNBC doesn’t allow us to endorse any candidates except Sen. John McCain and Sen. Barack Obama. As I will show later, the pundits at the GE owned 24 hours news net
