If you want to start a great, um, “conversation” with someone on the right, just say something that is brutally obvious and honest like… George W Bush was the worst president in United States history. That’s just my opinion, … Continue reading
If you want to quibble with President Obama’s State of the Union address last night, feel free. This is a free country, after all, even if the right wing would like for everyone to be less free. But the speech … Continue reading
As those who have been following this blog for a while know, it’s about uncovering lies and encouraging the use of facts to move the progressive movement forward. The problem with saying things that are provably false is, eventually someone … Continue reading
I am excited at the prospects offered by the Obama Administration, and I am looking forward to a future that is much brighter than anything we've seen since we ceded the government to the neocons 28 years ago, culminating in … Continue reading
