Zogby poll is racist, homophobic and dishonest

Zogby hits the trifecta.

A Zogby poll question asks if FCC should force "good white people to make room for more African-Americans and gays."

Here’s the question, a perfect example of a Rovian "push poll:"

Federal Communications Commission Chief Diversity Czar Mark Lloyd wants the FCC to force good white people in positions of power in the broadcast industry to step down to make room for more African-Americans and gays to fill those positions.  Do you agree or disagree that this presents a threat to free speech?

The question is also completely bogus -- making a charge about Mark Lloyd that is completely untrue.

So I guess Zogby is working directly for Fox News.

Obama administration talking to terrorists

I condemn the Obama administration for meeting with the supporters and enablers of domestic terrorists intent on assassinating the president, the Speaker of the House, and murdering the president's wife and children.

But they're doing it anyway.

Mr. President, how can we negotiate with terrorists unless they renounce terrorism?

Glenn Beck is trying to silence questions

People are merely asking the question, "Did Glenn Beck rape and murder a young girl in 1990?"

And furthermore, "Did he enjoy it?"

Just asking the questions, that's all.

Yet, so far, not only has Beck REFUSED to directly answer the above questions, now he is attempting to stifle the investigation by filing court briefs and is threatening lawsuits.

Hmmm. That IS suspicious.

(Isn't this how it works in Beck World?)

Another one bites the dust

Elizabeth Claire Prophet, multiple predictions of the end of the world having failed, has flown the coop.

CNN edits out criticism of Dobbs

CNN, trying to have it both ways, ran a special called "Latino in America." One of the people interviewed for the special had some harsh words to say about CNN anchor & noted hater of brown people Lou Dobbs.

CNN edited the remarks out of the interview when it aired.

Limbaugh does something stupid again

Rush Limbaugh makes himself look like an idiot again. This time he found a satirical blog posting with a "college thesis" purportedly written by President Obama in which he disses the Constitution. Rush missed the big SATIRE word written on the site, and breathlessly read from it on his show as if it were real. Of course, it was picked up by Fox GOP News and other right wing propaganda organs. Now that it's been pointed out to them that the site was a satire, most of them have gone silent.

Well, except for Rush, who stupidly bloviated that maybe Obama didn't actually say it, "but I know Obama thinks it."

Teabagger fun

Chris Matthews interviewed a teabagger yesterday, and asked him why he called Lindsey Graham, one of the most conservative members of Congress, a traitor.

The teabagger answered because Graham had said he was willing to talk to the Democrats about Social Security.

Matthews wanted to know what the issue was about Social Security.
"I'm not exactly sure," the teabagger answered.

Obama Derangement Syndrome in action, ladies and gentlemen.

Let's blame Hurricane Katrina on Obama!

As Obama visits New Orleans today, anyone want to place a bet on how long it'll take before Fox News and Rush start blaming Hurricane Katrina on him?

Take note that before Obama even took office, the stock market tanking was HIS fault, but when it hit 10,000 yesterday, Fox News ran graphics calling it "The Bush Recovery." I'm not kidding.

Baloney kills

I think every American should be required to read Carl Sagan's "The Demon-Haunted World" so they can learn to construct and use their own mental "baloney detectors" (Or, as I prefer to call them, “bullshit detectors”). And then stuff like this wouldn't happen.

Officials: 2 die after stay in resort 'sweatbox'

Two people died and another 19 were injured at a resort near Sedona, Arizona, after spending up to two hours in a "sweatbox," a dome-like structure covered with tarps and blankets, authorities say. CNN affiliate KPHO reported that the illnesses occurred during a ceremony led by James Arthur Ray, author of the best-selling book "Harmonic Wealth: The Secret of Attracting the Life You Want." full story

What if Democrats behaved more like Republicans?

Click to embiggify.

Conservatives aim to kill people

Another reminder that we are at war, at that the intent of conservatives is to kill you.

GOP candidate opened fire on effigy of Dem Congresswoman

A Florida Republican candidate for Congress became the target of outrage Friday after it was revealed that at a local shooting range he opened fire on a target bearing the initials of his Democratic opponent, Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

During a recent Broward County GOP meeting, Robert Lowry, a real estate CEO who is running against Wasserman Schultz, joined in the armed festivities. Though he initially said firing slugs at a silhouette with "DWS" inscribed to the side of its head was merely a "joke," Lowry "minutes later called it a mistake," noted CBS4 in Hallandale Beach, Florida.

"On what planet, exactly, is it considered a joke to shoot at a target representing a sitting US Congresswoman who happens to be a mother of three and a breast cancer survivor?" asked Kyle Munzenrieder with the Miami New Times. "To what audience is that a knee slapper? Really?"

Death Panels

Death Panels are real. And here’s the story of one young woman murdered by an insurance company’s death panel.

Conservatives ally with terrorist groups against America

Conservatives and the GOP today joined with the Taliban and Hamas in condemning President Obama for his Nobel Peace Prize win. Once again, the right wing cheers against America.

We are at war

NO compromise or reasonable discussion is possible with the right any longer.

We are in a state of war.

We tried compromise. We tried bipartisanship. In return, we got threats of violence, incitement to assassination, physical attacks, right wing congressmen talking open rebellion and secession.

And this, outright treason against the United States:

REPORT: ‘We Will Overthrow The Government’ — Calls For Violence Repeatedly Stoked By Conservative Voices

Special Comment: Keith Olbermann on health care reform

Keith Olbermann devoted Wednesday night’s entire Countdown show to a special comment about health care and health care reform. It was emotional, powerful, devastating… and absolutely riveting for the entire hour.

Part 1 - Part 2 - Part 3 - Part 4 - Part 5

If you aren’t stripped bare, emotionally raw, and enraged enough to do something by the end of part five, then you are no longer part of the human race.

Restoring your faith in humanity

Watch the video, it will make you feel better. People acting like humans toward one another.
