The best of us must now show "all conviction" to hold hearings to prosecute those who authorized torture.

Empty of better ideas -- of any ideas -- of how to remain relevant, the reactionary wing of the conservative movement has chosen to quit faking respectability and get back to doing what they do best: cranking up the hate to eleven.

There's a danger in mobs that allows people to act much worse than they ever would on their own.

Whether intentional or not, the talkers and bloggers who appear to be driving the post-Bush crazy train have opened up the conservative tent to some pretty unsavory and dangerous characters.

If you are wondering what Fox News is doing organizing anti-administration rallies around the country, its obvious strategy is to aggregate all the already existing opponents of Obama into one audience.

Enjoy this week, Tea Partiers. It costs you nothing. Your right to dismiss the American form of government has been paid in full by others who you clearly don't appreciate.

As others have noted, Glenn is getting harder and harder to satirize. I mean really, is it that far off to imagine him dressing up in a tea bag?

National Republican leaders, frustrated by the popularity of President Barack Obama and widespread public support for his policies, vowed today to remain frustrated.

Without a doubt, many of the attacks from the far-right against President Obama have amounted to nothing more than the political equivalent of speaking in tongues.

It turns out that that the tea baggers, led in part by Michelle Malkin, Glenn Reynolds and the Coward Rick Santelli, are politically more in line with the tax policies of King George than the views of the colonial patriots.

I am interested in the fate of Meghan McCain. Who is now suffering the full ire of the right's true believers, who in a typically hemorrhoidal fit are now fully enraged and inflamed by McCain's apostasy.

I know my Ayn Rand. In fact, when it comes to Rand and her philosophy of Objectivism I'll put put my Ayn Cred up against almost anyone. I attended he...

When MSNBC airs a reoccurring story that coincides with Michelle Malkin's latest rant, then I think we can safely begin to question MSNBC's descent into crazy.

Why would anyone support Republicans who revolt against government spending on tax relief for the middle class, but not against bid contracts for Iraq?

What the far-right appears to suggest is that ideas that are supported by 82% of Americans are criminal acts of tyranny, and an eventual tax increase of pennies on the dollar for the wealthiest 2% is worthy of opposition by revolutionary means.

If we a step back from the daily/hourly barrage of hate, it's obvious that faced with the new Obama presidency, the Republican Noise Machine has already lost all perspective.

If you have a problem with the swastika, according to Michelle Malkin, you're just being "hypersensitive." So quit your bitchin', you emo, touchy-feely liberals.

By rising above their bait and merely presenting a contrast of character, President Obama is making the Republican A-listers appear small, petty and absolutely befuddled.

ACORN is taking action at the local and national level, doing everything they can to help people hang onto their homes and renegotiate the terms of predatory loans.

At Fox News, inauguration day looked like the first afternoon a Negro used the local country club tennis courts following a legal settlement.

Joe the Plumber is on my TV. He's in Israel. Why? Who can say. I'm still fired for the off-air remark I made about him that got broadcast, and he's off as a war correspondent.

One year ago this weekend, the Huffington Post broke the news that, as Jim Morrison might have put it, the Kristol Ship was about to sail at the New York Times.
