Paid shill Shre Zieve is still spewing the most hateful, vile garbage you can imagine on behalf of secretive right wing special interests.

The ADD afflicted GOP base can’t seem to decide which extremest they want to rule over America more, and may end up losing 2012 because of it.

A disheartening but not unsurprising development surrounding the Occupy movement has been the emergence of people who support the kind of brutality and excessive force against innocents that is the signature of a police state. There will always be a sect of authoritarians in any population that supports government oppression, police brutality, unchecked government powers, […]

While the infantile and easily distracted media has found what it longs for and obsesses over endlessly, another tawdry sex scandal and sure ratings bonanza, it appears that far more troubling legal problems for Herman Cain and his early campaign associates is going to be largely ignored by the media, and will probably not result in prosecutions […]

Two new polls highlighted by Greg Sargent will get little or no play in the “liberal” mainstream media, proving conclusively two things that should be immediately obvious to anyone who actually pays attention what the media says and does. First, there is no “liberal” media. Second, any news that’s not good news for conservatives and Republicans is […]
