Gov. Tom Corbett, the invisible man
Marcus Hook was one of the towns I covered as a reporter, and now it’s on the edge of losing the one main industry. The Republican governor is largely indifferent to their plight: “Marcus Hook is a town teetering on the edge of destruction. Last year, Sunoco Oil announced that it would shut down its refinery in Marcus Hook. This refinery has employed residents for generations; it provides a tax base for the community, and directly funds part of the [...]

PA state representative Kathy Rape -er, RAPP- is your garden variety Republican. She claim to love children while supporting anti-child policies. She stands for family values, like poverty and hunger. And like all republicans, she wants the government small enough to fit in your uterus. Enjoy our latest Piggie of the Week: Bookmark It

Freedom of Religion……
I’ve been kinda grumpy today. I must have a Newt hangover. He came to visit the West Jawja area and I had tired of hearing about it, so I am not going to talk about it. Moving on to other crazy people, there is Congressman Phil Gingrey, Republican from the 11th district of Jawja. Oh, that’s DOCTOR Gingrey, pro life OB-GYN. A friend dropped this letter from Dr. Gingrey into my email box this morning……. Dear Friend: Thank you for [...]

Hmm
So intellectual journals in general are rather lax in publishing pieces by women writers! I am so very, very shocked. Seriously, don’t kid yourself. It happens in the blogosphere, too. I still remember a young Ezra Klein (yes, even younger) lecturing me about expecting to be supported by male bloggers when I hadn’t paid my dues, like him. “Uh, Ezra, I’ve been blogging a year longer than you,” I said. Oh. Here’s why it’s important: Because women in general are [...]

It’s not exactly new to anyone who was paying attention at the time. The only thing that made people blind to it was bone-deep sexism I didn’t even know people still had until that point.
Be nice to have had trench warfare against the loonies all these years, instead of Mr. Stockholm Syndrome trying to figure out how to give them what they want before they have to go to the trouble of asking for it.

Let’s not fall into the trap of conflating issues. “She’s (Hillary) driven by political calculation not conviction, regularly backing away and shifting positions..”. That’s a true statement. Otherwise you can’t possibly explain her “Yes” vote to illegally invade and occupy Iraq. Or her vote to approve the Patriot Act. Etc. If a politician is simply an opportunist, shouldn’t that flaw in their character be pointed out? Say in the case of Mitt Romney? Is there something wrong with that? Hillary Clinton, like her husband, is nothing but an opportunistic, lying politician who is in the game of politics only to enrich herself. That’s one issue. The other issue is Obama. Is he an opportunistic, lying politician? The evidnce seems to indicate that the answer to that question is no. So where’s the irony?

RFLOL – BHO isn’t opportunistic? This is the guy who’s taken the AUMF and Patriot Act to dizzying heights – he’s injected those Bush-era atrocities with steroids!!
BHO has no convictions or principles other than his own advancement.
Both Clintons are hard-working (not perfect) public servants. Hillary damn well cares about women, LGBTQ and voted for AUMF (not invasion of Iraq) and Patriot Act because she was the senator from NEW YORK.

Allie, explain this comment, “…and voted for AUMF (not invasion of Iraq) and Patriot Act because she was the senator from New York,” please? Thanks.

OMG, the obama campaign’s chief political strategist wrote a memo about how to trash his political opponent!!!
seriously, why is this news? no doubt mark penn wrote a memo talking about how to trash obama, talking about how to use reverand wright to paint him as a radical that will scare middle class white people. that’s the stuff that political strategists do.
11:43 am
Ummmmmm – the twin towers are in NYC?
The reason this matters is BHO was supposed to be all about above-the-board transformational change.
C’mon bots – get a clue.
12:06 pm
Allie, you do mean Hillary “bots” like yourself correct?
12:20 pm
The reason this matters is BHO was supposed to be all about above-the-board transformational change.
this is what i don’t get. ronald reagan ran as a transformational candidate with hope as his theme (e.g. the “city on the hill”). bill clinton ran as a transformational candidate with hope as his theme (e.g. “the man from hope”). obama was trodding a well-worn path during his presidential campaign (one that is tends to be a successful strategy following a period when the opposite party was in charge). for some reason (largely from his critics) obama is held to this weird different standard. as if his lofty campaign rhetoric means that he somehow is not a politician. didn’t reagan and clinton have lofty rhetoric? did anyone ever think those two prior presidents weren’t also politicians?
even the “bots” thing i think is pretty stupid.
12:33 pm
The “bots” thing IS pretty stupid except when it refers to Hillary “bots.” Because most of Hillary’s women supporters support her only because she’s a woman. How shallow.

Now that we know how rude people think you are, clean up your act or go. Your choice.
