Something’s Wrong, Something’s Amiss
Gosh, I can’t quite put my finger on what’s bothering me about this analysis of Romney’s performance in Florida from CNN’s Juan Carlos Lopez here, but it’s just not right. How Romney won Florida’s Latino vote Huhwha? Did I miss something? As Mitt Romney dominated the Florida Republican primary Tuesday night, he also captured the [...]

A Texas-Sized Surrender
Now this is very good news if it plays out the way The Hill seems to think it will: Texas Republicans are basically looking to settle their redistricting case with the DoJ, which would have to include approval by the minority representation groups that are the plaintiffs, that would give the state a number of [...]

It’s A Bit Too Late For That, Ruben
CNN’s Ruben Navarette is warning that the GOP might not do too well among Latino voters in 2012, which is a bit like, well, like Herman Cain warning that the GOP may not do too well with African-American voters like myself. But here’s his opening: On behalf of all those Latino voters who have figured [...]

You Just Can’t Make This Racist Sh*t Up: Fox News Owes Everybody a Great Big Honking Act of Contrition
Via TPM, and courtesy (sic!) of rightist media flack Brent Bozell and Fox News, this gem: “How long do you think Sean Hannity’s show would last if four times in one sentence, he made a comment about, say, the President of the United States, and said that he looked like a skinny, ghetto crackhead?” Bozell [...]

The Next Birtherism?
Let’s say it’s a tight race between Barack Obama and whoever emerges from the GOP scrum—the Real Clear Politics poll summary currently has Obama leading Romney by less than a point, and though Obama has a much bigger lead over Gingrich, the economy isn’t getting better all that quickly, and it’s impossible to know what [...]

Auto-Neurotic In Alabama
One has to wonder what Alabama cops have against foreign car executives anyway. Oh wait: they have no choice but to ask for papers, please. The Guardian reports that Honda manager Ichiro Yada was arrested earlier this week at a checkpoint in Leeds, Alabama, despite being able to show police his passport, US work permit, [...]

The War Against Ourselves
The key component of any Republican argument is a tautology involving whatever it is they don’t like being the greatest threat to our universe since the Weeping Angels. As yesterday was Veteran’s Day, at least one Republican from Tennessee has decided that the Big Bad threat is Muslims in our military. State representative Rick Womick [...]

A Real Impeachable Character
Here’s the thing, folks. If you give fanatical Republicans too much power, they do completely crazy things with it because they are basically insane. Case in point: one Gov. Jan Brewer of Arizona. Gov. Jan Brewer and the GOP-controlled state Senate on Tuesday touched off legal and political battles as they took the unprecedented step [...]

ZOMG! ScheduleGate!! President Obama is a Cave-Dwelling Cave Meister!
This is Obama’s Katrina. For those of you who aren’t aware, Obama caved BIG-TIME yesterday… or something. See, he wanted to address Congress about his jobs plan on September 7, which is Congress’s first day back from summer recess. (You remember jobs, right? Most of you probably don’t have one because Congress refuses to do [...]

Sharif don’t like it
Clash of civilizations, failure of multiculturalism, etc.: “We’re here to protect the town. What went on last night was a disgrace. It shouldn’t be allowed. We’re taking a stand.” On Monday night, the Turkish business owners in Stoke Newington, North London, chased a gang of rioters out of the area and last night men stood [...]

The Great Unmasking: ABL Attends the South Central Tea Party Rally
