Timing Is Everything
The gulf oil slick is turning into an epic fiasco. Reports say that Halliburton is involved; the damage is finally reaching shores; the disaster will continue unabated for weeks. We’ve had our first oil-slicked bird, with who knows how many … Continue reading
Morning Awful
Duncan Hunter wants to overturn the Fourteenth Amendment and the Supreme Court principle of stare decisis to boot. (That link is scary — you are warned.) It’s like I keep saying: these people carry terminal irony deficiency, a condition that … Continue reading

Artur Davis On Grocery Taxes
Artur Davis is the first Alabama gubernatorial candidate I can remember talking about the state’s unfair tax burden. For that reason alone I am eager to see him win. It always irks me to hear people try to excuse Alabama’s … Continue reading

Not the art — the subject. It has been justly called A Problem from Hell. Context is everything:
Evening Tab Dump
By passing a bill written by a white supremacist, Arizona Republicans have managed to make their brand toxic in the wrong demo. In another case of incredible timing,a curseword has become a media sensation thanks to a Goldman-Sachs email that … Continue reading
Calling Out The Tea Party
Eugene Robinson: As those of you who read this morning’s column already know, I think the state’s draconian new immigration law, which mandates racial profiling, is an abomination. I wish some of the Tea Party folks would join me in … Continue reading
