Speaking to a writer for whacked out religious fanatic tabloid World Net Daily, Mike Huckabee complained yesterday that he's just like those minorities Republicans exclude from their country clubs: Huckabee blasts Rove, 'elitist' GOP establishment. Not in so many words, of course, but Huckabee's whiny attempt to paint himself as a ...

Wow. The Anchorage Daily News has posted a video of the incident in which reporter Tony Hopfinger was handcuffed and detained by Tea Party candidate Joe Miller's security guards, showing some astonishingly thuggish behavior as other reporters tried to interview Hopfinger. This is seriously bad craziness. Tea Party candidates aren't just ...

If you've read anything by Robert Spencer, you already know that he will blatantly lie when cornered. Today he responds to my piece for the Guardian, with a ridiculous article that calls Pamela Geller a defamed freedom fighter.

Robert Spencer gets torn a new nether orifice by Reza Aslan in this segment of the CNN "town hall" meeting on Islam. Aslan quite correctly identifies Spencer's group "Stop the Islamization of America" as a branch of the European hate franchise "Stop the Islamisation of Europe," and points out that ...

Frank Rich makes some excellent points about Christine O'Donnell's value to the GOP good old boy network, cynically using the teabaggers to sleaze their way back into power: The Very Useful Idiocy of Christine O’Donnell.

Ben Dimiero asks: Is Jim Hoft ("Gateway Pundit") the Dumbest Human on the Internet? I would answer "yes," but there's some pretty stiff competition with people like Pamela Geller and Dan Riehl. In spite of the fact that Hoft embarrasses himself on a near-daily basis and has shown time and again ...

New Hampshire's GOP candidate for US Senate, Bill Binnie, has been a very bad Republican, and you know what that means: death threats. He's been under attack by the tribalist far right that now dominates his party, over his support for legal abortion rights. There's a disturbing amount of tacit and ...

In tried and true Paul family fashion, the Rand Paul campaign responded to the revelation that one of their staffers had been trolling Daily Kos by claiming that it was a double reverse conspiracy.

At Daily Kos, they've discovered a paid staffer for Rand Paul's campaign posing as a left-winger and posting deceptive comments about Paul's opponent Jack Conway: KY-Sen: Rand Paul staffer caught posing as a progressive at Daily Kos.

Will Bunch says it all with his headline: It takes Beck just 55 hours to start cashing in on 'restoring honor' to America. Glenn Beck's original "I Have a Scheme" idea for his Washington rally that he announced in late 2009 was clearly one that was highly focused on a ...

These days if I bother to read one of Tim Blair's phoned-in attack pieces, I increasingly get the feeling that he thinks his readers are complete idiots. His style has been reduced to tossing out distorted accusations in one-line sentences, then sitting back and letting his readers respond with the ...

It's back to school time, and World Net Daily has a great article full of handy tips on making sure your children remain fully mind-locked, and teaching them how to resist that insidious science stuff liberals are always trying to force on God-fearing patriotic folks.

Hatemonger Pamela Geller has apparently founded an "umbrella" group called the American Freedom Defense Initiative for her anti-Muslim activities, with an attorney named David Yerushalmi, and they are going to be allowed to put their misleading anti-Cordoba billboard on MTA buses in New York.

Anti-Muslim bloggers Robert Spencer and Pamela Geller used to frequently cite stories about radical Islamists forwarded to them by Jeffrey Imm; you’ll find hundreds of posts at their sites that refer to Mr. Imm.
