GOP Bigot Eruption: Grover Norquist Edition
Like a crack addict, Grover Norquist is one of the figures on the right with power who can’t help themselves.
“Norquist dropped by The Times’ Washington bureau today and, as part of his negative critique of Obama’s liberal stances on economic issues and other matters, he termed the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee ‘John Kerry with a [...]
Boy Are We Lucky The Military Got Rid Of This Guy!
What a relief!
Decorated Army Sergeant Darren Manzella has been discharged under the ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ law banning lesbian, gay and bisexual Americans from military service, effective June 10. The Iraq war veteran was one of the first openly gay active duty service members to speak with the media while serving inside a war zone. [...]

Is Brian Williams Right?
He takes Reuters to task for sending out a story about possible life on Mars, saying that the story about selling GM and the Supreme Court 2nd Amendment case is more important.
I’m inclined to disagree with him because cosmically the Mars story is FAR more important. But I’m clearly biased.
CNN.com Called Nelson Mandela “Mandingo”?

Al Franken’s Problem
In the same poll that shows Sen. Obama with a 17 point lead in Minnesota, Al Franken is 10 points behind Norm Coleman. I’ve never been super wild about the Franken run (I don’t like entertainers and other media folks running for office most of the time), but I’m even less so now. Maybe he [...]

Head Spin Watch
It will be interesting to watch those conservatives who yesterday decried the “activist” court for their death penalty decision now affirm that the gun decision today is firm and fair.
Heh.

Dear God:
I have seen David Brooks on the streets of DC four times now. In the future, should you choose to make me see famous tv news people in real life, please substitute new DC resident Lara Logan of CBS in lieu of any more Brooks.
Thanks,

McCain’s Lost Spring
I’ll never understand why McCain spent this past spring, when Obama and Clinton were hammering each other, and did nothing to build his infrastructure.
Oh, Religious Right…
… sometimes it really sucks sharing the same planet with you. I don’t understand how allowing gay people the same basic privileges as the rest of us turns the earth on its axis.

When We Left Earth
Did any of you catch this miniseries? So awesome, especially if you love space exploration as I do. And Gary Sinise had just the right voice for the narration. As soon as I get a Blu-Ray player I’m ordering this thing.
