• Chaz Stevens Has It 100% Right – For Ban-Worthy Content, Nothing Beats The Bible

  This week, Florida human rights activist Chaz Stevens, “known for his tongue-in-cheek petitions to local government agencies”, came up with a good one. He asked the districts to “immediately remove the Bible from the classroom, library, and any instructional material.” The reason? The Bible is entirely age inappropriate for school age children because it’s filled…

• The Truth Is Elections DON’T Matter – Not To Republicans

  Ever notice how the news media loves to taunt Democrats? They don’t taunt Republicans the same way because Republicans won’t be taunted by people – the news media – they dismiss. Republicans are fact averse because facts don’t support most of what they want the way their feelings do. The Trumpification of the GOP didn’t…

• Literal Pages Ripped From “The Conservative Playbook”

  It’s not a coincidence that conservatives are far, far better at marching in lock step than liberals or progressives – or even independents. Across cultures, conservatism produces better goose-steppers than progressivism ever could even on progressivism’s very “best day”. It all comes down to the Playbook. Conservatives have one while progressives and independents don’t. That’s…

• “Putin Pays Rohrbacher And Trump – Swear To God!” Should Have Been The END Of Donald Trump

  When the complete history of our era finally gets written, I betcha one of the things future generations shake their heads at is how we allowed Donald Trump to be a free man for most of his life. Keep in mind, that history will be written long after every treasonous Republican who enabled, supported or…

• The Problem Isn’t Just That Putin “Might” Escalate To Nukes/Bioweapons, It’s WHERE He’d Do It

  War, in general, never presents perfect choices where going one way (if it works) will be pain-free. Trade-offs and trenches go hand-in-hand. As we’re learning – since our intelligence services are suddenly liberated like never before to tell what they know – Putin started this war not only under false pretense but under the false…

• Is Corruption Some Sort Of “Super Power”?

  Consider corruption’s remarkable power to destroy everything good in a heartbeat. Consider how hard it is for good to wipe out corruption. Now, corruption itself is just an abstract idea – it’s greed asserting itself in some form or another – wanting more for oneself than one is entitled to. More money, more power, more…

• If “Both Sides” Really Did “Do It”, Republicans Would Already Be Extinct

  Republicans play to win. Democrats play to play. That’s always been the key difference between us. One side cares only about the results while the other thinks the process is equally important. Consequently, while Democrats insist on playing by the rules (even if it puts the rules in harm’s way) Republicans are the ones actively…

• Fact: If Not For Russia, Donald Trump Would NEVER Have Been POTUS

  Russia’s road to war in Ukraine started in Washington, DC – on the day the Republican Party officially hitched its wagon (its whole brand in fact!) to Donald Trump’s. That wasn’t July 19, 2016 the day the GOP officially nominated Trump; the nomination was merely the prettified coronation of a traitor. No, the day the…

• Treason Kabuki (For Idiots)

  Politics and theater go together like peanut butter and jelly… like hopes and dreams… like a slap in the face and the sharp pain that goes with it. For five plus years now, America has been treated to a remarkable performance by the Republican Party. They are actively attempting to stop America from ever becoming…

• Conservatism = The Death Of Innovation

  I take conservatives and conservatism at their word: they’re all about conserving things. My question is always: “what?”. What is it exactly that any conservative wants to conserve? It can’t be the future, of course, because the future – not existing yet – can’t be conserved. That leaves the present and past for conservatives. Okay……
