POPSWar Is Hell "Palin doesn't just line people up on different sides of an issue; she turns them against each other. It's not enough to hate her; you also have to hate those who don't. Or, if you like her, the attacks on her make it difficult to imagine having any use at all for her enemies. Palin somehow makes the culture wars personal; she's their ultimate symbol. And war is hell, no matter what form it takes."

POPSColor Coded Right-Wing Terror Alert From the comments at the source: Using the color chart Mon, 07/06/2009 - 20:48 — Zenrage Ann Coulter would rank as Infrared. Michelle Malkin would rank as Microwaves And naturally, Rush Limbaugh would be Radio Waves (which is why we will never get his ass of the radio)

POPSObama Killed Michael Jackson! The first paragraph is from the cigar-sucker's own web page. The rest, and below, is from politicsusa.com. Rush’s comparison does not work. It doesn’t make sense. Partisan politics can’t be applied to something as random as a celebrity death. Ronald Reagan had as little to do with Jackson’s success, as Obama did with his death. Jackson’s talent made him the world’s biggest star in the 80s, not Ronald Reagan, and Obama did not cause Jackson’s heart trouble. The wingnut pundits are doing everything they can to cast Obama in a bad light. He's a tyrant and a dictator, but they descend to trivialities like his choice of mustard or his reaction to a reporter's intrusive ringtone. The cognitive dissonance it takes to agree with these people is becoming more conflicted every day. What's next - blame Obama for the Teapot Dome Scandal?

POPSAn Obama "scandal" as phony as Whitewater
Full piece details why: -There is no scandal because the settlement against Johnson was made public months ago and the US Attorney filed no charges -Walpin is a far rightwingnut partisan who was charged with ethical violation over his involvement w/ Johnson: The U.S. attorney said that Walpin had "overstepped his authority by electing to provide my office with selective information and withholding other potentially significant information at the expense of determining the truth" -- in other words, Walpin had failed to provide substantive exculpatory facts to the U.S. attorney, while trying to push the government into opening a criminal probe of Johnson... Brown noted that Walpin had sought publicity for his findings against Johnson... before discussing them with the U.S. Atty's Office, "hindering our investigation"... served at the pleasure of the president, who may well have taken some pleasure in ousting him -- and need make no apology if he did.

POPSThe Wingnut Revolution "....But all of this silliness tends to overshadow the very basic fact that these self-anointed revolutionaries have all along sought to derail and defeat the largest tax cut in American history; going so far as to define the recovery act containing this historical tax cut as socialism and "porkulus." What this far-right movement appears to suggest is that tax cuts, job creation and affordable healthcare for the middle class -- ideas that are supported by 82 percent of Americans, by the way -- are criminal acts of tyranny, and an eventual tax increase to the tune of pennies on the dollar for the wealthiest two-percent is worthy of opposition by revolutionary means. Okay, well. Good luck with that, wingnuts. But don't forget your permits."

POPSTentative Senate Deal on Stimulus The piece goes on: said the package now includes $45.5 billion for infrastructure projects, $6 billion for special education, $4.4 billion to improve electricity transmission and $87 billion in "targeted temporary increases" in the federal Medicaid matching rate to help states avoid deep cutbacks in health care coverage. Among the expenditures that the negotiators deleted was $870 million for pandemic flu preparedness, which Collins said was an example of a needed program but one that "doesn't belong in a stimulus package." See, that's one of the things I don't get about GOP objections -- if things are needed, why don't they belong in the stimulus? Why trim out things that you later expect to pass anyway? It's not like the senate gets paid by the hour. It's all been a rationalization for obstructionism. A cheap political stunt to score points with the wingnut crowd.

POPSSally Kern's Husband: Force Gays into "Centers" "She told right-wing news outlets that she'd received emails containing death threats. This false allegation resulted in a resource-squandering probe by the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation. (After pouring over 26,000 emails, OSBI found not one threat.) "

POPSSCOTUS: No Review of Obama's Prez Eligibility Score one for the sane. Don't expect this conspiracy theory to die here, though. Conspiracy theories never die . No amount of proof will satisfy these nuts, because conspiracy theories become like religious beliefs to people. This "Obama isn't eligible thing" will be bouncing around the wingnut blogospere for decades. Get used to it.

POPSPalin’s Taking Us Back to "McCarthyism". 
The acrimonious language in Palin’s speeches, take us back to "McCarthyism". We've all known that Rightdiculous columnists and their nastier Right-Wing talk radio hacks have been doing this rhetoric for years. And that their ditto heads have been soaking it up, in the comfort of their living rooms, where they shout obscenities and hateful oratory, alone or among their kind. Now McCain’s, VP choice allows them a place IN PUBLIC to caterwaul their Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter induced RAGE. It must be a catharses for the pathetic souls who have been listening and reading the unadulterated animosity coming over air waves or in print, directed at some unknown enemy. They now can UNLEASH the bottled up hatred, in the open and have a recognizable foe, thanks to the self-proclaimed pit-bull. The wingnut goons behind desks or microphones must be MIGHTY PROUD! “HURRAY FOR SARAH PALIN!” they shout. She’s harvesting the grotesque seeds of hatred, we’ve fervently sewn!
