There are millions of Americans who will never hear Michelle Obama’s words. As eloquent, as passionate and as accurate as the First Lady was Thursday in New Hampshire, we must face the reality that a large portion of this country–a portion mentally contaminated by the lies of Limbaugh, the filth of Fox and the trash […]

Deplorable Behavior
It’s not going to happen Wednesday, either. Joe Romm of Climate Progress noted last week that if Anderson Cooper and Martha Raddatz failed to introduce a specific question about climate change at the Clinton-Trump II debate, the question would never be brought up in Clinton-Trump III: We’ve had two debates where the moderators ignored the […]

Most progressives were thrilled after Hillary Clinton’s dominant debate performance last Monday night over Donald Trump. Me? I was scared to death. I couldn’t help thinking of the millions of Americans who couldn’t hear Clinton’s words because they are deaf to facts, who have been brainwashed into believing that Trump is Clinton’s intellectual and moral […]

They couldn’t care less about the health impacts of carbon pollution, and the fact that it […]

The Philadelphia Experiment
So, if US Senator Pat Toomey (R-PA) loses to Democratic challenger Katie McGinty on November 8, will he also claim that it’s because the election was “rigged”? It can be argued that Toomey is the most cowardly Republican in the Senate (and boy, is that saying something), because he should be the one standing up […]

The Day the GOP Stood Still
Rarely is New York Times columnist Paul Krugman wrong in his political or economic conclusions; the man makes an error about as infrequently as Halley’s Comet is visible from Earth. However, there was one tiny flaw in his July 18 post about the GOP’s march towards mania. Krugman correctly noted that he was one of […]
