GG can't help himself. He will do/say/write any lie to cast PBO in a negative light, even if he knows instinctively that it's BS. IMO, his...Re: Glenn Greenwald Hates the Constitution

Greenwald doesn't care how much of a racist/bigot Paul is proven to be. He has an irrational hatred for POTUS. Wonder why?Re: Glenn Greenwald Hates the Constitution

Glenn Greenwald needs to get off the Ron Paul/Koch/Libertarian teet. Hasn't he read the Anonymous "Ron Paul Hearts Neo-Nazis at Home and Abr...Re: Glenn Greenwald Hates the Constitution

Let's not forget Glenn's mindset in the aftermath of 9/11, the very attack that directly led to the AUMF: "This is not to say that I was no...Re: Glenn Greenwald Hates the Constitution

Sarah’s Sex Scandal Jumps 14-Foot Fence, Shark Tank
Remember the fence? It wasn’t high enough. In case you haven’t heard, author Joe McGinnis’s new book about Sarah Palin has a salacious sports section: Palin allegedly slept with future NBA star (Glen) Rice when he was a University of … Continue reading
Morning Awful: Sarah Courts Cycle Culture
It isn’t how ridiculous Sarah Palin appears waving from the back of a motorcycle, but how ridiculous the media appears by fawning over it. And isn’t it amazing how a “vets for (insert Democrat)” sign never winds up in frame … Continue reading
Murdoch’s Palin Fail
I’m predicting that Murdoch’s deal with Sarah Palin will turn out exactly like his deal for MySpace: an expensive, public humiliation. For those who haven’t heard, Sarah’s new show will include interviews with L.L. Cool J and Toby Keith. Actually, … Continue reading
Palin’s Party Prattle
Sarah wants a new third party to, y’know, make Republicans have to debate harder an’ stuff: ThinkProgress has a list of her statements about a third party; up til now she has taken the more popular position among teabaggers that … Continue reading
Sarah’s Reality
She’s flirted with tea party televangelism; now she wants her own reality show. Somehow, it seems to me the natural end of the Sarah Palin story is a non-reality-based “reality show.” Think “John and Kate” with extra moose-hunting. What’s sad … Continue reading
Teh Train Wreck™
The presumptive 2012 Republican nominee actually has 29% of Americans convinced she might be qualified to be president. This is the frightening result of a Washington Post-ABC poll. Did I mention that I live among an unusual concentration of such … Continue reading
Sarahpalooza! II: Convention Crashing
The revolution will be monetized. Sorry about the audio quality at two points; there’s nothing I can do until such time as Teh Evil Plan™ sees fit to cut me a fat check to buy better equipment. If you haven’t … Continue reading

Sarahpalooza!
Make no mistake, this is what the beginning of the race for the 2012 GOP nomination looks like:
Palinpalooza!
Sarah Palin was supposed to leave Fort Bragg, NC at 1:00 PM CST and get to Books-A-Million in Birmingham by 4:30 PM CST. That’s 3.5 hours set aside to complete a journey 8.5 hours and 529 miles long through mountainous … Continue reading
