Rubin Blasts NY Times for not Calling Trump a Racist
Jennifer Rubin gets a lot of flack here over the suspicion that she isn’t really on our side, she’s just against Trump, and will go back to screeching at us the way she screeches at him now. That’s possible, maybe even probable. But let’s not be so suspicious that we miss a few things. First…

Calling Trump 'deranged,' lifelong Republican and Michigan mayor endorses Joe Biden
Apparently, this guy has known all along that Donald Trump is, as he calls him, “deranged” — but he voted for the ocher abomination in 2016 anyway. He reasoned that Trump’s derangement might lessen as the gravity of his office became more apparent. As we all know, the opposite happened. And now, Sterling Heights, Michigan, Mayor Michael…
“Trump's Katrina” continues as experts step in despite IMPOTUS calling COVID-19 “a hoax”
We remain ready for Trump’s “Way-to-go Brownie” moment, although that may remain the cipher for his entire presidency, having failed the tests of leadership by obfuscating every moment with disinformation and outright lies. Bush's response was to give his buddy Brownie a “way to go!” thumbs up. x 1. Had tests available so we could have identified who had…
Did it ever occur to people that calling other people Bernie Bros is high level bullying
I am ashamed to say, though I never use the term, that I did not recognize this earlier. I had the realization from a comment on another thread in which the individual said their adult children became angry and hurt when they heard this term. The same thing is true of my children. It is…
Claire McCaskill Is Correct: ALL Power For Calling Witnesses In Trump Trial RESTS With Republicans.
I don’t agree with former Democratic Senator Claire McCaskill on a lot of things, but she was absolutely 100% correct on this score: Republicans have all the power when it comes to calling witnesses in the sham impeachment trial of Trump. McCaskill said the Media and even Democrats are falling into this narrative trap that…
'Christianity Today' gets big subscription boost after calling for Trump's ouster
It’s a Christmas miracle! I’m not going to subscribe because, well, I can only afford so many barmy right-wing Christian magazines, and I’ve been trying to get off Boys’ Life’s mailing list since 1978, but hey. This is cool. NBC News: The Christian magazine that published a blistering editorial calling for President Donald Trump’s removal from…
When will conservatives apologize for calling us traitors and dupes over opposition to Bush's wars?
I don’t know about you, but I initially opposed both of George W. Bush’s post-9/11 wars — the Iraq campaign especially. Following the attacks of 9/11, a pitched battle arose between hawks and doves, with the former attempting to seize the moral high ground and ultimately winning the hearts and minds of the nation. Those…
I'm confused Mr. POTUS*, are liberals supposed to prefer calling Thanksgiving, “Sock Rocket Day”?

Calling progressive ideas 'on the fringe' is a calculated fraud on Americans
Americans have been indoctrinated into liking or disliking a policy based on some arbitrarily defined fringe. This behavior is directly responsible for an economy that serves a few. When Democrats lose too often they are told it is because they are too progressive or support too many policies that are on the fringe. When they…
For God's sake, start calling this the “sabotage bill.” When will Democrats learn?
Republicans have now come up with their new option which they call a “skinny repeal” or the “skinny bill.” This bill option is not fully known yet, but seems certain to include a repeal of the individual mandate, the employer mandate and some of the medical device taxes. Again, millions will be hurt: Without the…
