Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards The New York Times holds nothing back in this excellent editorial on the blatantly deceptive "sting" videos released by the far right "Center for Medical Progress." A hidden-camera video released last week purported to show that Planned Parenthood illegally sells tissue from aborted fetuses. It shows ...

Tonight I'd like to direct your attention to two excellent pieces on the ongoing attempts by the Orwellian "Center for Medical Progress" to destroy Planned Parenthood -- just the latest right wing reactionary attack on this vitally necessary women's health organization. First, a piece at Think Progress by Tara Culp-Ressler: Everything ...

The anti-choice fanatics at the Orwellian "Center for Medical Progress" have released another deceptively edited, blatantly dishonest video attacking another Planned Parenthood official, complete with ominous sinister background music. (I'm not embedding it here, but you can click the link above if you want to see it for yourself.) It's another ...

Today the polls are showing that Donald Trump has a huge lead over the other GOP candidates -- nearly double the numbers of the runner-up, Scott Walker. The Donald Trump experience is revealing the deep racist and nativist roots of the conservative movement. The right wing voting base loves the mean-spirited ...

I've never been a fan of Gawker's style of tabloid sleaze and character assassination (and I've been one of their targets in the past, in a crappy dishonest attack by John Cook), so I'm having a difficult time feeling upset or sympathetic to them now. Today two of their top ...

Glenn Beck's pseudo-news site The Blaze posted an article about the Ku Klux Klan rally in South Carolina, and it's boring. But the comments! A cornucopia of right wing insanity, coming atcha from all angles! The Klan are Democrats! Nazis are liberal socialists! Blacks are the real racists! It's a false ...

As we pointed out a few days ago, Donald Trump dodged military service during the Vietnam War with a series of student and medical deferments, like the privileged sons of many wealthy people did. But that hasn't stopped him from saying horrible things like this, about Sen. John McCain: "He's not ...

As we reported exclusively a few days ago, infamous cyber troll Chuck C. Johnson was blatantly using the account of @RonReaganLives to sneak back onto Twitter and promote his awful blog. And now, Johnson's latest Twitter account has been suspended too. Looks like this really is a permanent ban for the ...

It comes as no surprise that the Republican Party is now planning to capitalize on the blatantly dishonest, deceptively edited Planned Parenthood "sting" video, with yet another big push to roll back women's rights. With everything these politicians should be focusing on, this is what they choose to do -- attack ...

As the New Horizons spacecraft races past Pluto into the outer reaches of the Solar System, a towering triumph for science and technology, we've got a slate of Republican candidates here on Earth that's about as anti-science as it's possible to be. Almost all of the GOP candidates for president in ...

We noted yesterday that the leader of the group ("The Center For Medical Progress") that produced the latest deceptive, heavily edited video attacking Planned Parenthood, David Daleiden, is actually a friend and associate of discredited right wing hatchet man James O'Keefe, and was a classmate at Claremont College of infamous ...

Here it is, folks: the first high resolution close-up image of the surface of Pluto from the New Horizon spacecraft: The Icy Mountains of Pluto. New close-up images of a region near Pluto's equator reveal a giant surprise: a range of youthful mountains rising as high as 11,000 feet (3,500 ...

Well, there's another bogus, heavily edited James O'Keefe-style propaganda video being frantically circulated all over the right wing media and blogs, attacking Planned Parenthood. Yes, again. I'm not going to embed this deceptive video, but here's a link to it at YouTube if you really think you need to see it. ...

Yesterday I got a tip from a friend that cyberstalker Chuck C. Johnson had bragged on his private Facebook page that he now has "access" to a Twitter account with 23,000 followers. A screenshot: As you may recall, Chuck C. Johnson was recently permanently banned from Twitter, and tried to re-register ...

Yes, they actually do think Obama might be preparing to institute martial law under cover of a military exercise, folks, and they've now launched a website to coordinate their crackpot activities as they "monitor" the Armed Forces of the United States: Counter Jade Helm. Notice that their "About Counter Jade Helm" ...

Since the Charleston church shootings and the subsequent exposure of the alleged killer as a far right white supremacist, conservative pundits and bloggers have been frantically trying to spin away the connections between white supremacism and the mainstream right. Some of them are even absurdly arguing that alleged killer Dylann ...

In his nutball speeches yesterday in Las Vegas and Phoenix, Donald Trump made a big point of boasting about how "militaristic" he is, and how tough he'd be with ISIS.

Following the removal of the Confederate battle flag from the grounds of the South Carolina Capitol, Breitbart "editor" John Nolte launched a frenzied deluge of hateful comments on Twitter; dozens and dozens of crazed tweets like this one: Where's the ceremony to take down this symbol of hate, bigotry and oppression? http://t.co/leoJc SGjXp ...
