It was laughable to watch John McCain, who has proven to either have a bad memory, a problem telling the truth, or both, to ask that we "consider the source" in response to Arianna Huffington's claim that he told her he didn't vote for Bush in 2000. Then again, he...

Each week a new national outrage goes underreported beneath the primary noise. Last week it was the Pentagon puppets, this week it's the deplorable living conditions at Fort Bragg, reported by a military father with a camera and a conscience.

If the people who are devoting their lives to fighting...

It has now been four days since the Times broke the story of the Pentagon sock puppets. The networks in question have all but refused to make any noise about this, so we did.

Whether he's calling his wife the C-word, mixing up Sunni with Shia, or making false claims about Iran, John McCain is repeatedly proving to everyone that doesn't happen to work for CNN or MSNBC that he's completely batshit insane. Enjoy our song Teflon John for McCain and the MSM that...

Gen. Petraeus will be answering questions on Capitol Hill this week, and since it's the congress and not the press doing the asking, there might even be some hard ones.

My personal recommendation would be to ask about the toll that repeated deployments are taking on our troops. If you...

It has been exactly one month since the New York Times broke the John McCain/Vicki Iseman scandal, and since then the press has gone after Iseman with all the veracity and acumen of a dead hippo. What gives?

Don't get me wrong -- I think that if John McCain had...

We thought John McCain might want something to listen to as he chucks his principles out of the bathroom window of the Straight Talk Express each time he capitulates to some figurehead of the religious right or hires one of the people who slandered him in 2000 to advise his...

This week's song is about the mathematical problem with the war leading up to the election: the fewer casualties we take in the months before the election (and of course I'm all about fewer casualties), then the more likely it is that John "100 Years" McCain gets elected, which means...

If the troops in Afghanistan were given the proper resources to actually hunt down the terrorists we are there to get, the war in Iraq would be even less popular. Our song this week is about how the last vestiges of support for the Iraq war are dependent on stalls...

Have you ever played poker with someone for play money, only to lose and then have them demand that you give them a hundred dollars? Of course you haven't, because you don't hang out with scumbags like that.

That said, I'm sure a number of people who read this site...

Our song this week explores Guantanamo's undoubtable future as one of those museums where people talk in hushed tones and walk with slumped, ashamed posture. Enjoy "Museum of Mistakes."

Our song this week is about making a choice for the Democratic ticket, without the benefit of feeling pulled by either camp's platitudes about a shining future or a near-perfect past. Enjoy:

In a cold van driving through the upper midwest on tour last week, we all read the feature in the New York Times about that Iraq war veterans with no criminal history who return with PTSD and commit murders, and the trouble that arises in sentencing them. A South...

It recently surfaced that "A Charge To Keep", a painting that Bush keeps in his office of what he believed was a man leading a group of missionaries (and became the namesake of his autobiography) was actually a painting of a fleeing horse thief. We all got a good...

This week's song is about the speedboat scuffle in the Strait of Hormuz and the subsequent blowing-out-of-proportion of said scuffle. Enjoy!

Oh, how I love the day before the Iowa caucuses. It's the last day when the Democrats have nothing to do but try to impress Democrats, and I like to be impressed.

They haven't yet looked like idiots in camouflage hunting suits to presumably look more manly. Their teams of...
