The Strategy For 2010
Despite what anyone says, the result from the Massachusetts special election is not a repudiation on health care reform, President Obama, or Liberalism. Instead this was a perfect storm of 10% unemployment, opposition enthusiasm that always occurs in off-year elections, and a really shitty candidate in Martha Coakley.

Compromise
Alright, teabaggers. I’ll meet you half way. Let’s agree that he’s not a Nazi, but he is a socialist.
America, Fuck Yeah!
A depressing day: I can tell you when this country will get real health care reform. It will come when insurance premiums are so high, and when so many people die from lack of health care, and when so many people go bankrupt from paying medical bills, and when the rest of the system is [...]

The rally was held during the U.S. District Court arraignment of terror suspect Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, who is accused of trying to blow up a Northwest Airlines jet [...]

Gotta Give Fox News Credit on This One
After prominent figures on the right, and their zombie followers, jumped to conclusions of conspiracy over President Obama's executive order granting certain immunities to INTERPOL, a panel on Fox News quelled the resulting hyperbolic nontroversy. Don't expect any retractions from Beck, Limbaugh or others in the near future.
