Well, now I know what percent I’m in.
Political rant below the fold…. Republicans want to raise my taxes. Thanks for that, guys. But hey, it’s not like I’m ever going to vote for any of you again, for any office at any level, so why not? (Oh, … Continue reading

Da doo Ron Ron….
Politics, below the fold. Via PZ Myers, we have Ron Paul’s answer to the shocking question, “Do you believe in evolution?” (We’ll just set aside the notion that one can “believe in” evolution, kinda like how one “believes in” Santa … Continue reading

The hell with all of it.
Political rant below the fold. This whole idiotic business about President Obama’s birth certificate perfectly illustrates what’s wrong with political discourse in this country. This week, Obama finally got sick of the whole damned thing and released the long form … Continue reading

Comments Off on Serious Congressman is Serious
A note to political pundits
The adjective “serious” should probably not be ascribed to anyone who proposes a budget plan whose goal is to preserve tax cuts for rich people at virtually any other conceivable cost. Thank you.
