I’ve been a posting fool today y’all. Actually, I started writing last night, but I shouldn’t pull the veil back too far, you might see all my secrets. Anyway, as I am a fairly violent typist, my fingers are killing me. What I mean by violent, is that I type very hard on the...
Turns out, ending those tax cuts only negatively impacts people who make more than $300,000. Who knew? Oh yeah, just about everyone. Check out Southern Beale for the money quote.
Southern Beale is taking on national bloggers Digby and Atrios this morning in a post about Christianity and the reaction of national liberal bloggers regarding statements made my Sarah Palin and Sharron Angle.

Southern Beale has taken a deeper look at the TEA Party movement and found it lacking. It seems to me the only electoral “victory” our media can point to for the Tea Party is Scott Brown’s election in Massachusetts. While the Tea Party Express endorsed him, Brown himself never claimed to be part of...
Missed Opportunities
Wednesday, the day after the US Department of Justice announced its suit against the state of Arizona, politicians all across the state rose their press operations in protest. It started with the more conservative crowd in TN-03, then the inevitable announcement from Ron Ramsey, and finally the surprise of the day Democratic Gubernatorial Nominee...
