The current costs of employer sponsored health care coverage
Tue, 03-09-2010 8:47:45pm

by Calickizzle
Let’s see. A recent Kaiser Family Foundation report (obvious liberal bias) shows that the average amount of employer-sponsored health coverage is $1,115 a month. That’s the equivalent of $13,375 a year- or roughly the equivalent of the annual salary of a minimum wage job. That’s what an employer pays on top of each employees’ salary. [...]

American al Qada spokesman captured- does the media care?
Sun, 03-07-2010 9:25:02pm

by Calickizzle
If you’re not paying attention, you may miss this AP story about the American-born al Qaeda spokesperson getting captured in Pakistan. As this development is a major coup for the Obama administration and represents the fact that it is more successful fighting terrorism than the preceding Bush administration, the “liberal media” will probably not [...]

Has the GOP given up on trying to lie well at this point?
Sat, 03-06-2010 01:16:20am

by Calickizzle
It’s like they don’t think such things as the Internet or the freaking LAWS THEY PASS aren’t around to catch them in their mile-high piles of excrement. When Governor Mitt Romney passes an individual mandate to ensure 98% of Massachusetts has health insurance = totally okay and acceptable, and worthy of Scott Brown voting in favor [...]

CPAC: Complete lack of conservative common sense
Sun, 02-21-2010 09:21:38am

by Calickizzle
Once a year at CPAC, a bunch of angry white people get together to yell and complain about things they know nothing about. Granted, I’m not on the ground so I can’t provide first-person eyewitness, but according to Thom Hartmann, who worked radio row at the conference, he spent his time “looking at a [...]

Evan Bayh’s NYT op-ed
Sat, 02-20-2010 11:06:26pm

by Calickizzle
Well it appears that since Senator Bayh has announced he will not seek re-election, he can post thought-provoking opinion pieces in the New York Times as a statesman, as opposed to showing up as on television on a regular basis, stating how he will obstruct the passage of President Obama’s agenda by any douche means [...]

Bush’s speechwriter continues to fabricate
Tue, 02-16-2010 8:13:59pm

by Jsmog
Mark Theissen, Former Bush Speechwriter, and author of the recent book, “Courting Disaster: How CIA Kept America Safe and How Barack Obama Is Inviting the Next Attack”, actually has the mental capacity to go on Morning Joe and say that “if torture programs were in place before the attacks on 9/11 we would have known [...]

Beginning of the End for Sarah Palin
Fri, 02-12-2010 7:13:02pm

by Calickizzle
Gosh, wasn’t the “Tea Bag convention” just last weekend? Yet new poll results released this week show that Ms. Telepalmer has approval ratings below 40 percent, which means that she would kill for the 51% approval rating currently enjoyed by that “guy with a teleprompter?” By every indication, this means that the more [...]
