In the interest of fairness and balance

Even if you ignore the silly Jesus stuff in the beginning of this video, it’s obvious that the ridiculous ACORN witch hunt is not about illegal activity, it’s about ideology. There are government contractors with FAR more egregious records of fraud (Northrop Grumman, etc.) and other illegal activity including murder (Blackwater) that are not receiving the same scrutiny.

In fact, Sean Hannity dismissed Blackwater’s actions because they are, in his words, “keeping us safe.” (Don’t get me started on that little bit of wingnut fantasy.)

As I’ve posted before, if Acorn was in the business of KILLING brown people instead of HELPING them this would not be an issue.

Oh, and the Defund ACORN Act IS a “bill of attainder” and, as such, is unconstitutional. But Fox won’t tell you that. In fact, the only way it could be constitutional is if it is applied equally to “any organization that has been charged with breaking federal or state election laws, lobbying disclosure laws, campaign finance laws or filing fraudulent paperwork with any federal or state agency [, or applied to] any of the employees, contractors or other folks affiliated with a group charged with any of those things.”

“In other words, the bill could plausibly defund the entire military-industrial complex.”

And people wonder why the White House disregards Fox News

Ann Coulter gets it all wrong on “Willie Horton”

Media, humor, politics Comments Off

…it’s pathetic, really, truly, in a “Look at the rabbits, Lenny” kind of way, how now, with Ted Kennedy dead and the Chappaquiddick arrows gone, Coulter’s quiver of reference points is getting emptier and emptier. All she’s really got left is passive aggressive Bill Clinton sex remarks. Reading her columns these days, now that she’s been out-batshitted by Glenn Beck and out-babed by Sarah Palin, is not unlike listening to a toothless meth addicted woman at a bar tell you how hot she used to be and won’t you please let her suck your dick for a dollar.

Go. Read. Laugh: The Rude Pundit

Honestly, is there anything more amusing than watching the GOP Noise Machine lecture people about accuracy and treating people fairly?

Beck’s czar idiocy finally exposed

Media, politics Comments Off

1. Fact. Bush had more czars than Obama.

2. Fact. The number of czars a given administration has means absolutely nothing.

3. Fact. The term “czar” is a media fabrication. There is no official title of “[Something] Czar” in any administration.

4. Fact. Most of the “czars” Glenn Beck is fixated upon actually WERE vetted and approved by Congress, contrary to his claims.

Watching Chris Wallace interview Dick Cheney is a little like watching a 13-year-old girl interview the Jonas Brothers.

Glenn Beck has no bloody clue what a “coup” is. Though his process of stringing together inflammatory words isn’t dependent upon accuracy and intellectual honesty.

Oh yes. Hilarity will ensue

Sarah Palin + Glenn Beck 4-ever!

The biggest joke in American politics wholeheartedly embraces the biggest joke on American TV.

I’m salivating at the prospects. Keep an eye on this is one, folks.
