    Gay Romney Spokesman Slams ... Rachel Maddow For Not Being Feminine Enough?

    Once upon a time (two days ago), I applauded Mitt Romney for naming Richard Grenell his spokesperson on national security. Grenell is an openly gay republican who once petitioned the State Department to name his male partner (a Hollywood media executive) his spouse. But this tweet is pretty...

    Gulf Seafood Deformities Alarm Scientists

    I would say don't read/watch this if you're headed down to Sea-N-Suds anytime soon. http://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/features/2012/04/201241682318260912.html Eyeless shrimp . . . yummy.

    Romney Drops Out of Super Tuesday Debate

    Not sure I'd advise this strategy . . . https://twitter.com/#!/EWErickson/statuses/170215748688560128 My guess is he knows Georgia is a Gingrich/Santorum crowd and so he wants no part of it. Why give anyone a free shot at him when he has a 25:1 spending advantage?

    Bad News For People Who Hate Good News (economy added 243,000 jobs in January)

    Additionally, November and December's reports we're revised upward by 60,000 jobs. http://money.cnn.com/2012/02/03/news/economy/jobs_report_unemployment/index.htm?iid=SF_E_Lead At the moment, I don't care who's responsible. I'm just glad it's happening.

    Stop Online Piracy Act

    Anyone know much about this? If I understand it correctly, this bill may put sites like TideFans (and other discussion boards, social media sites, and sharing hubs) in serious legal jeopardy by making them legally liable if their users link to or post copyrighted material. Here's a video that...

    Mitt Romney vs. The Republican Voter

    What's the issue with Republican voters hating Mitt Romney? The guy has no real competition for the nomination (IMO) and yet still can't break 25% in any of the national polls. If you're anti-Romney, chime in here . . . Is it his Mormonism? Is it the similarities between RomneyCare &...

    Should Alabama Have to Pay Its Own Way?

    I keep hearing (from good friends, family members, and Fox News) that the U.S. is becoming a “socialist” country. We shouldn’t be bailing out banks, I hear. Or car companies. Or the state of California. Everyone should have to pay their own way. But I’m having a...

    The Official John McCain "Scandal" Thread

    2008: Is Virginia in Play?

    Sounds ridiculous, but look at the vote totals from this night: Barack Obama 619,969 John McCain 241,768 Mike Huckabee 188,624 That means that Obama got 190,000 more votes than McCain and Huckabee COMBINED. Two other figures of note . . . if you do some quick math with the exit polls, it...

    "John He Is"

    Unfair . . . but pretty dang funny. For those who want some background before clicking, it's a parody of that Barack Obama "Yes We Can" video. Only it features John McCain. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gwqEneBKUs&e
