9. Snooki 8. Linguistically, by equating the positive and moral act of removing the military industrial war machine from some greedy imperialist invasionary endeavor, with the rather lame and self-serving act of jizzing all over a gal’s stomach because your dickhead boyfriend forgot to put a fucking condom in his wallet. 7. During the 70s, women gathered in the streets and burned bras to protest the social constraints foisted on

Credit where it’s due: Joel Pollak does an excellent job keeping his composure in the face of attempts to belittle him and diminish the importance of the story under examination. Note: We don’t need to apologize for vetting Barack Obama. We don’t need to let Soledad O’Brien try to redefine and neuter critical race theory and dissemble about what its aims were. We don’t need to fear smirking innuendo that,

Here’s a review of the legislation, the Energy Freedom & Economic Prosperity Act, to be presented today as an amendment. And here’s how you can help. Best get on it.

And the imperialist presidency continues apace: Wth no authorization from Congress, President Barack Obama has announced that his administration — through the Federal Housing Administration — will insure refinanced mortgages for 2 to 3 million borrowers without verifying their income or even if they hold a job, according to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Obama announced his latest mortgage program at a White House news conference on

What we need, according to the Dems, is a kind of global test — a “legal basis” tied to “international permission” that would determine when our military can be used. Because let’s face it: deciding on our own — that is, through the Congress, using a Constitutional test — how and when to use our own military for our own purposes is imperialistic, while letting other countries determine when we

So far, no sponsorship pullouts of note that I’ve heard about. But then, there’s like, a totally good reason for the double standard: nobody takes leftwing liberals seriously anyway. CNN’s Jay McMichael: “We’re very excited about having Louis C.K. at the dinner. This is an evening you’ll want to experience. We’re shaking things up, showcasing the unexpected, and delivering lots of laughs.” For the record? Here’s a bit of CNN’s

From Breitbart: Earlier today, Buzzfeed’s Ben Smith announced on Twitter that video researcher Andrew Kaczynski had released “the mysterious Harvard/Obama/race video that the Breitbart folks have been talking about.” The video, which Kaczynski says was “licensed from a Boston television station,” shows a young Barack Obama leading a protest at Harvard Law School on behalf of Prof. Derrick Bell, a radical academic tied to Jeremiah Wright–about whom we will be

That would be unfair. And ungentlemanly, presumably. This despite the Obama Administration’s stated desire for higher gas prices as a way to ease fuel-guzzling bitterclingers out of their automobiles, this despite their attendant policies that have worked to assure a lower supply, from blocking drilling to nixing pipelines. Not to mention Obama’s own clearly articulated war on coal and electrical power, the costs for which he’s deemed must “necessarily skyrocket.”

What does it say about our country that a once fiercely independent people who claimed they’d walk a mile for a Camel can’t today be expected to walk (or bike, or drive, or be driven) a mile for some healthy arugula or a properly portioned take-out cup of broccoli salad? Other than maybe that they just don’t really want the stuff? I’ll tell you what it says: it says that

Okay, seriously. Has the national GOP and its antiquated, feckless, would-be kingmaker apparatus really become this big a joke? I mean, seriously, Rove. You and your whiteboard couldn’t even force on us an erstwhile “progressive” independent Paul Tsongas voter and Reagan opponent who had the universal support of his own family? Shit, man. It’s like you guys aren’t even trying any more. (h/t JHo)
