Wednesday: Ponderables

So, the results are in for the Arkansas and Kentucky primaries and there’s reason to be concerned for the Democratic party: With 61 percent of precincts reporting in Arkansas, Obama took 60 percent to 40 percent for Wolfe. In Kentucky, with nearly all precincts reporting, 42.1 percent of Democratic primary voters opted for “uncommitted” rather [...]

Friday, Friday

Before I head on down to the basement to do more painting, and more painting today on the hallways (gosh, I’m beginning to sound like Lambert and his endless painting chores), I’d just like to clear something up about Obama’s sudden revelation about marriage equality. He came out for marriage equality.  Good. He also said [...]

Romney and Obama statistically tied in Gallup Poll

Well, so much for women helping the Lightbringer out this year: According to Gallup, 47 percent of voters polled are backing Romney, compared to 45 percent who prefer Obama. That’s well within the poll’s margin of error, which is plus or minus 3 percent. While both men are doing well within their respective parties, the [...]

Friday: Found in the spam filter

In case there is any doubt that the left has a serious problem with women, I thought I would share this stinky piece of spam I found in our spam filter this morning. The person who wrote this is too stupid to even think of a clever username.  He (it has to be a he) [...]

Why Obama’s cave looks bad depending on your gender

I noticed that Charles Pierce at Esquire is getting a deluge of “you’re wrong about this one, Obama totally scored” comments on his post about how braindead stupid Obama’s cave to the Catholic bishops was over the birth control controversy. Here’s what Charles said about it in his How Obama’s Lady Parts Deal Empowers the [...]

Sunday shorty on SOPA

Update: This has probably occurred to others but just hit me that SOPA is really just an election year shakedown.  The Republicans are raking in money from the media congloms while the Democrats are raking in money from, er, everyone.  It’s no lose legislation, or so they think.  It’s like playing with fire and the [...]

Mike Check for President 2012

President Obama got Mic Checked in New Hampshire last week and, well, this just about says it all: Republicans who have been urging the Occupy movement to protest President Barack Obama finally got their wish Tuesday. At a campaign event in New Hampshire, the president waited patiently as he was “mic checked” by a group [...]

Wednesday: Collateral damage

The NYTimes reports today that the number of children on the reduced cost school lunch program has spiked recently due to layoffs and homelessness in the family. That’s just great. On a related note, Nicolas Kristoff wrote a post last Sunday on how we’re being too hard on Obama.  He’s worried that the recent elections [...]

Touchy, Touchy

I’m resurfacing a bit after the Big Basement Cleanup.  Still waiting for the claims adjuster to take a look around and tell me the damage.  AND, since the countertop was installed yesterday, I get to hook up my faucet, garbage disposal and dishwasher.  I know what you’re thinking.  The DIYer who installs her own dishwasher [...]

Fantasies and Choices

Lambert has an extended conversation with Amanda Marcotte over whether Hillary Clinton would have made a better president. Amanda and many others, argue that it’s all speculation and we’ll never know and blah, blah, blah, {{rolling eyes at all of the Democratic party loyalists who are, once again, either complicit or getting sucked into spreading [...]
