“ObamaCare by morning …” [Darleen Click]

h/t Tammy Bruce

“Kathleen Sebelius: Obamacare enrollment ‘likely to be quite low'”

Ignore that it’s Orrin Hatch asking the question, because that guy has proven to be as phony as a Bill Clinton definition of sexual relations. Instead, just savor the reply. But that’s not her fault. Nor the President’s. Nor Ezekiel Emanuel’s. They’re hearts are pure and their intentions — to herd us all us so that they can more easily tend to us for our own good — laudable. So

Our Royal Federal Judiciary [Darleen Click]

California, caught in the perfect storm of one-party rule and Federal dictatorship. California has long been the epicenter of prison litigation. But for cataclysmic force and sheer staying power, nothing beats two massive and now inextricably intertwined class-action lawsuits. The Prison Law Office, California’s leading prisoner-rights organization, filed a suit in 1990 arguing that the mental health care provided to the state’s mentally ill inmates violated the U.S. Constitution. A

On political popularity

You know who was popular?  Corey Haim.  And now look at him:  dead as a suede boot and slowly learning what fresh hell he’s in. You know who else was popular?  Corey Feldman.  And now he appears bloodless, is reduced to hiring bored, scantily clad female party goers, and he wears a freaking cape. Madonna?  Yeah, that’s a role model.  Nothing like a ripped fifty-something pretending she has anything left

“Incoming RGA chair Chris Christie to SC Republicans: I want to help Lindsey Graham get reelected”

It’s an incestuous old boys club — and those who actually have the temerity, in the face of all evidence otherwise, to call themselves “conservatives,” simply do not realize that they are about to face a rebellion of epic proportions.   Or rather, they do, and they simply don’t much care. The GOP has stopped even pretending to support its base.  And now we have the “inevitable” Chris Christie doing as

Congrats, ladies! Some of you don’t vote with your female parts!

It’s both surreal and remarkably sad to watch Democrats break out their playbook for every election, and every election run on being “pro-woman” while painting the GOP as in a constant state of war against women.  This is, of course, absurd:  the question seems always to turn on accusations that are on their face bald-faced lies:   Cuccinelli, in this instance, wants to take away a women’s birth control access, as

Let’s face it: corporatist GOP insiders and their establishment puppets are who we thought they were

Not to reiterate my previous reiteration, but I will note that I was perhaps the first out of the box to predict the narrative forming around some of yesterday’s races:  a Cuccinelli loss and a big Christie win was to be framed as the need for moderate, bipartisan, compromising candidates willing to help rebuild the GOP brand (by, for instance, coming out for in-state tuition perks for criminals in the

#WarOnBoys [Darleen Click]

At least the parents did the right thing and pulled their 8 year old son out of this insane school Parents in Scottsdale, Arizona have removed their children from school after the headmaster threatened to expel their eight-year-old son for drawing pictures of potential Halloween costumes. The boy was a student at Scottsdale Country Day School when his parents were called to a meeting last week. The principal told the
