High In The Middle And Round At Both Ends
So if you want to know what LEROOOOOOY NNNNNEWTON! was doing while he was drowning in flop sweat and Santorum last night, he was too busy playing for Ohio by attacking the President (and Mitt Romney) here in heavily Catholic Cincinnati yesterday. Republican presidential hopeful Newt Gingrich today brought his talk of family, jobs and [...]

Chart Of Darkness: Belaboring The Point
Following up on Saturday’s post on the latest wingnut meme that Kenyan Soshulist Maths are hiding the truth that the reeeeeeeal unemployment rate among scared, crazy self-piddling conservatives is 157 gazillion percent, we see FOX and Friends is happily joining in the silliness. “Are they playing around with the numbers?” fill-in host Eric Bolling asked.

Chart Of Darkness
The problem with this Zero Hedge “implied unemployment rate” chart that the wingers are screaming about as proof of a massive “Democrat Party scam” is the fact that Tyler Durden ran the numbers back for 30 years and it exists all the way back to the Reagan era, and it shows that the “real” unemployment [...]

Birthers Stuck On Endless Loop
Whether you believe that the Republicans will self-destruct in November or not, the Birther component of the anti-Obama campaign will never, never end unless the people who continue to spew this nonsense are actually made to pay a price. A judge has ordered President Barack Obama to appear in court in Atlanta for a hearing [...]

Yes We Can-Can
Charles Krauthammer is mad enough to stomp bunnies, a man consumed with the type of bitterness that can only come from being thwarted by putative allies when a cherished goal is in sight. Things were going so well. With an assist from elderly social conservatives in patriot drag,* the GOP had successfully rebranded the economic [...]

Sorry somehow
Does this happen to you all the time? You start talking politics with a reasonably Real Murkin and he/she tells you “I don’t think Obama is doing such a bad job” and launches into a well-informed pro-Obama, anti-Republican shpiel. When it’s with a tote-bagger, you might reach this point, but there’s an unbelievably long preamble [...]

Sparks Fly
Good news from team Obama: In a defiant display of executive power, President Barack Obama on Wednesday will buck GOP opposition and name Richard Cordray as the nation’s chief consumer watchdog even though the Senate contends the move is inappropriate, senior administration officials told The Associated Press With a director in place, the new Consumer [...]

How do you like me now?
Maybe these Fox mistakes are just incompetence, but I tend to think this (via) was intentional. I’m agnostic about the idea of a “Murdoch primary” (I don’t honestly know what motivates those assholes), but this could mean something.

Obama Fighting Back
Is anyone helping him? President Obama sought to keep Congressional Republicans on the defensive Monday, calling an extension of the payroll tax cut necessary for middle-class Americans and questioning why Republicans who opposed paying for tax cuts in the past now say they won’t continue the payroll tax break unless it is offset with other [...]

President George Gun Walker Bush
The silliness that is the effort to turn the “Gun Walker/Operation Fast and Furious” poutrage from the right into Eric Holder’s head on a pike (and a space reserved on the GOP Lannister clan’s ramparts for President Obama) is nothing more than the usual selective amnesia, considering the program to “walk” firearms across the Mexican [...]

Is Our President Learning?
Hallelujah: This last summer, President Obama had an epiphany: Republicans are not going to negotiate with him. One might say that this realization came a little late. (And in fact, I did say that.) It’s not exactly clear why Obama thought he could persuade Republicans to compromise when Republicans had been saying that they wouldn’t [...]

Now That the Charade is Over
This is the least surprising thing you will ever read: House Republican leaders say they are rejecting President Barack Obama’s jobs proposals to rebuild schools and blighted neighborhoods, and help keep state and local employees on the job. In a memo to GOP lawmakers that was also issued publicly and reprinted in The New York [...]

This is the story of the hurricane
Nate Silver has an interesting run-down of hurricanes that have hit near New York. Who will be the first to call this Obama’s Katrina? Consider this a hurricane open thread. Update. Forget it, a million people have already called this Obama’s Katrina?

Why Obama’s Compromises Suck
Freddie made a number of different points yesterday, but I want to concentrate on one: But mistermix—those “messy compromises” that you associate with virtue is why our country is the way it is. Because every messy compromise is at least 80% for the wignuts, you end up with a corrupted country. How long do you [...]

One and Done
Not to be all gloomy, but Obama better pray to the FSM that the Republicans nominate a grade A wingnut like Bachmann, or I simply do not see how he gets re-elected. This has nothing to do with the worthless gasbags who have nominated themselves our progressive betters, but everything to do with the economy. [...]
