It’s not just their last candidate for President, Mitt Romney(65), seems to have emerged from a 1950′s time machine, the entire Republican Party is like a faded old image from a mid-century Sears catalog. From right wing billionaires like the Koch Brothers(72-77) and Sheldon Adelson(79), to media manipulators like Rupert Murdoch(81) and Roger Ailes(72), to conservative commentators like […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

It took me a while, but I finally figured it out. I have to give Republicans credit, over the years they’ve developed such a complicated shell game that I genuinely thought they had some depth and principle. What I’ve discovered is that they only stand for one thing; rich people getting and keeping as much […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The biggest surprise of the vice-presidential debate between Joe Biden and Paul Ryan wasn’t how much Vice-President Biden dominated on foreign policy, but rather, how inept Paul Ryan was at economic policy. He had no facts, his numbers didn’t add up, and he seemed to be running away from the Romney/Ryan budget, almost conceding the […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

They call a poll that is so far from the rest as an outlier, some might call it an outliar, something so far from the truth that it’s motives are called into question. The latest Pew Research poll is one such poll. While other polls show little change in the presidential race since the debate, […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
By now everyone had heard Jack Welch’s paranoid and delusional rantings about how government employment numbers were fixed by the Obama campaign. Welch was absolutely flabbergasted that the unemployment rate went down. This can’t be! This doesn’t smell right. This doesn’t feel right, he kept repeating and repeating. Corporate media gave Welch plenty of valuable […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

If Romney Was Being Honest, How Much Would He Say He’s Really Worth?
on October 5th, 2012 at 11:58 pmThe 2012 campaign will be remembered for the way billionaires like the Koch Brothers and Sheldon Adelson tried to buy the election for their friend Mitt Romney. It may also be remembered for the Republican Party putting up a billionaire as their candidate for president. A few years ago, conservatives all believed that Mitt Romney […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Mitt Romney’s biggest contributors are from the big banks, Goldmann Sachs, Bank of America, JP Morgan Chase, Morgan Stanley, Credit Suisse, and Citigroup.

In a thorough and well-documented article, Matt Taibbi unravels the cult of money that existed at Mitt Romney’s Bain Capital.

Ohio’s Sherrod Brown is one of the strongest voices for the American worker in the U.S. Senate. He takes on the powerful monied interests that are more interested in profits than helping the middle class, more interested in shipping jobs overseas than supporting local communities, and more interested in buying politicians who’ll do their bidding […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what. All right, there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

The obvious answer is, of course we’re better off– the stock market has doubled, we’ve created millions more jobs […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
We get it– President Obama is a Kenyan socialist who hates the country and wants to kill your grandmother. That’s pretty much what the Tea Party has given us. Yes, they wrap it up in patriotic ribbons and confuse you with talk of freedom, but that basically covers the Tea Party’s contribution to society. You […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The Mormon Church has carefully cultivated a Donny and Marie image, a wholesome ah-shucks image that is non-threatening and family-oriented. It wasn’t always that way. This image has been carefully crafted by LDS leadership and it all starts in Hollywood. Early on, Hollywood produced a number of films hostile to Mormons. Film like The Danites […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

And you thought Sarah Palin was a crazy VP pick?

Initially, I thought that Mitt Romney was going to London to watch his wife’s horse compete in the Olympic dressage event, but then Mr. Romney said that he wasn’t even going to watch her, that he had very little interest in her competition, and that he didn’t even know when it was going to be […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Maria Bartiromo: Will Companies Hire if President Obama is Re-elected?
on July 17th, 2012 at 1:38 pmCNBC, the political birther of the CNBC-T Party, hasn’t exactly tried to hide its antipathy for President Obama and Democrats.

This has never […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
