The Vice Presidency is an odd job interview. Best way to apply is to deny desiring the position. Saying exemplary things about the candidate never hurts.
I'm sending Governor Chris Christie a flying chancla for vetoing a marriage equality bill and contending that the people of New Jersey should vote on the matter.
This week we discuss topics including: Mitt Romney loves lamp; the Tea Party wagging the Republican dog; Romney briefly made sense on spending; no transvaginal ultrasound law in Virginia; the Muslim rumors are back; and others.
Women are increasingly realizing there may be no place for them in the formerly Grand Old Party, except as second class citizens, their rights defined...
The GOP has followed its extremist fringe off the deep end, leaving the rest of us back in the reality based world, and befuddled. Their strategists warned them not to do this, but it appears that to the GOP, unhinged fringe issues are like catnip.

It is estimated that 800,000 victims (children and adults) are trafficked across international borders and that 100,000-300,000 U.S.-born underage victims are forced into sexual slavery in the U.S. every year.
I automatically recoil at the suggestion that people should be held responsible for the actions of others, especially when it comes down to the influe...
Rather than accept the simple, straightforward, proven proposition that the planet is warming and manmade emissions are to blame, Cuccinelli instead conjures a world ruled by a vast conspiracy by thousands of unrelated climate scientists.

It is clear Teresa possessed neither the verbal intelligence nor the initiative to mastermind a plan to murder the victims -- her mental health alone should grant her exemption. This is an unconscionable failure of the system.
What I continue to find shocking is that the message, tactics, and unrelenting anger of the Republican Party are becoming echoed and displayed by so many Americans who call themselves "pro-Israel."
