If you need something to lift your spirit after the past couple of posts (hell, after the past few years worth of posts), watch this tribute to our military families: Until Then. (Hat tip: Jewels.)

The Senate Conservatives Fund has endorsed tea party candidate Dr. Milton Wolf in the race for Sen. Pat Robert's (R-KS) Senate seat. "Dr. Milton Wolf is a principled conservative who will fight to stop the massive spending, bailouts, and debt that are bankrupting our country," Senate Conservatives Fund Executive Director Matt Hoskins said in a statement obtained by TPM on Tuesday. Wolf, a radiologist ...
Check out this piece about her from Wonkette's Happy Nice Time blogger Rebecca Schoenkopf, TILA TEQUILA DOESN'T HATE JEWS, SHE JUST LOVES HITLER AND WOULD LIKE SOME ATTENTION, IS THAT SO WRONG? Rebecca wrote it in response to this horrifically stupid thing that Tequila recently wrote, Why I Sympathize With Hitler Part 1: True History Unveiled Note sure if I should label her a ...
When Martha Stewart left prison in 2004 after serving a five-month sentence for conspiracy and obstruction of justice, she issued an emotional plea on behalf of the women she did her time with, many of whom were locked up for nonviolent drug offenses. "I beseech you all to think about these women," Stewart said in a statement (PDF). "They would be much better served ...
Good news, citizens! You have the right to refuse a warrantless search of your premises. It's a right that's guaranteed by the Fourth Amendment. But that right won't protect you from the consequences of your failure to roll over for law enforcement. Nope, the right to not be subjected to a warrantless search can actually be held against you -- not in a court ...
More: Mandela's Trademark Shirts iReport It was Saturday September 1, 2007 and I was in Monte Carlo for a friend's wedding. We prayed that morning at the local synagogue and later walked to the nearby Hotel de Paris. Entering the lobby, I was surprised at the large security presence. I soon learned that the legendary former South African president Nelson Mandela was a guest ...
The William Ayers Wrote Obama's Book Guy, aka Jack Cashill, proffered one of the more toweringly stupid comparisons yesterday: Last week, Cashill appeared on TheDoveTV to promote the book and was asked what he thought about the possibility that the Justice Department might file civil rights charges against Zimmerman in the death of Trayvon Martin. Cashill was not supportive, to say the least, primarily ...
As American workers, those fortunate enough to be employed anyway, rush to complete year-end projects, let us take a moment to marvel at the outgoing 113th Congress. As our own Sarah Jones reported last week, this group is the least productive on record. As of this writing, the sorry bunch of elected officials has passed just 55 laws this calendar year, seven fewer than ...
This past weekend, Peter LaBarbera, founder of the Naperville, Ill.-based anti-gay hate group Americans for the Truth About Homosexuality (AFTAH), was in Jamaica pushing his extremist views. "Do not be like us, do not be like Britain, do not sit idly by as so-called 'LGBT activists' manipulate words and laws to achieve dominance in your country," LaBarbera told a conference of Christian conservatives in ...
One more time I will not call for new gun laws, but instead explain to all my friends how dangerous it is just to have a gun in your house. Once more I will point out that you are in more danger from that gun you own than you are from crime. You don't want to become one of these sad tales, you should ...
Protesters Surround Google Bus in San Francisco. Obnoxiousness Ensues. This morning in San Francisco, anti-eviction protesters surrounded one of the private buses that Google uses to shuttle its San Francisco-based employees to the company's headquarters in Mountain View every day. The protest was part of a large and growing backlash against the city's "techies," who are accused by various parties of ruining the city's ...
Wingnuts love to talk about the merits of home schooling, but one of the biggest providers of home schooling curriculum shows how little they actually car about education. A popular curriculum used by home-schooled students has drawn criticism for inaccurate, misleading information and an over-reliance on rote memorization, but those aspects may not be the worst things about it. A lot of the material ...
Titled "Be That Guy," the 30-second animation was first played at a NASCAR race in mid-November. It shows a race, one of our great American pastimes, where a lot of people are crammed together in a loud public arena to cheer as slightly larger Hot Wheels careen around in circles (growing up in the land of INDYCAR, I still don't get it). In the ...
Following in the footsteps of other antigovernment "sovereign citizens," Robert Carr figured he could take ownership of houses in foreclosure simply by moving in, changing the locks and filing "quiet title" legal papers. "If you abandon something, you forfeit all your rights and title to it," Carr told WLWT-TV in Cincinnati, "and title is not a piece of paper. Title is when you grab ...
Could have put this under "Wingnuts," but this happened awhile ago, so I thought "History" was more fitting. Anyone on the right wants to claim Republicans or conservatives never supported the Apartheid regime, here's something else you can use to debunk them. This was also motivated by profit, so whoever says greed is good, has been proven wrong in this case as well. That ...
Question-How big is a cubitAnswer-Not nearly big enough I am a person of faith, brought up WASP. But a literalist interpreation of the bible makes no sense to me. At the end of the day, every bible ever scribed, chiseled in stone, printed or PDF is the work of humanity. Humans. Lil edit there, did not mean to imply a greater participation than the ...
Retired NFL quarterback Brett Favre helped coach Oak Grove High School to the Mississippi Class 6A state fotoabll championship Friday night. The former Super Bowl winner and three-time NFL Most Valuable Player is the offensive coordinator at Oak Grove, which won its first state title with a 14-7 win over Tupelo.

More: The Vicious Babushka: IT'S PIE DAY! the Lemon Meringue Pie We have not had a Pie Day! in a while, and we also neglected to even post to this blog during Hanukkah while we were on vacation in Alabama. Anyway this Lemon Meringue Pie was made the old-fashioned way and took over an hour of back breaking hard work so try it out! ...
There are indeed things we don't talk about and it's long past time we do talk about it, share it and stop feeling it's our fault. Mental, emotional and financial abuse is widespread. It may not leave bruises, but the injuries run deep. Women from all walks of life can be subject to it. It happens to people of all races, all faiths, all ...
Americans like to talk about (or be told about) Democracy but, when put to the test, usually find it to be an 'inconvenience.' We have opted instead for an authoritarian system disguised as a Democracy. We pay through the nose for an enormous joke-of-a-government, let it push us around, and then wonder how all those assholes got in there.
