Quit Pretending That Vote Wasn’t Based On Race

May 24th, 2012 · 1 Comment

Actually, Kenny Coleslaw, about a quarter of Democrats in Kentucky admitted that they voted against Barack Obama on the basis of race in 2008. [WFPL] It’s silly to protest this North Carolina nutjob. He’s so crazy that a protest isn’t necessary. His words do all the work for you. [HuffPo] The paper in Lexington felt [...]

You Most Likely Are Not Casting A Vote Today

May 22nd, 2012 · 1 Comment

Ooooh, lawwwd. It is election day and you should listen to this hilarity from some man of “jesus” (after tens and tens of you cast your votes, of course): “I figured a way to get rid of all the lesbians and queers,” he says in his sermon, delivered on May 13. “Build a great, big, [...]

Larry Dale Hit The Nail On The Head. Again.

May 21st, 2012 · No Comments

Larry Dale Keeling seems to think Jack Conway is playing pat-a-cake with Richie Farmer and he rightly thinks this tax reform commission is as silly as the rest of us. [H-L] Chris Christie and some other bloated white men love to claim Barack Obama is the least experience president ever. Apparently, they’ve never heard of [...]

Gary Moore Needs A Reality Check On Marriage

May 18th, 2012 · No Comments

Here’s a bunch of mouth-breathers freaking out over folks not hating the gays. [NPR] Will the Obama Campaign create a fancy website like this to hit Mittens Romney on his flip-floppy anti-gay ways?

Rand Paul Puts On His Anti-Gay Hat Once More

May 14th, 2012 · 1 Comment

What was that, again, about Rand Paul not being a homophobic troll? “I tend not to wear my faith on my sleeve,” he said, adding later that “I see decisions government makes almost always in moral terms.” He spoke about his opposition to abortion and gay marriage, his fiscal conservativism and his opposition to war….

Here’s Why Kentucky Dems Can’t Have Nice Things

May 14th, 2012 · 1 Comment

It’s almost sad watching the Kentucky Democratic Republican Party “chairman” pretend Democrats are going to win two State Senate seats that, well, Republicans are probably going to win. Because, let’s get real, a convict doesn’t need to be elected to office and the other candidate can’t raise money to run a campaign. Note that he [...]

Mittens Maybe Does Or Doesn’t Hate The Gays

May 14th, 2012 · No Comments

Jack Conway’s failed U.S. Senate campaign is suing the Federal Elections Commission for fining him over a late campaign finance report.

[FOX41] Aww, Michele Beard Bachmann decided to flip-flop and withdrew her Swiss [...]
