That is a question I have asked myself time and time again since Obama took office on a number of issues, including expanding the Faith Based Initiatives, or my fave, the incredibly unConstitutional “Prolonged Detention” of American Citizens, holding them in custody indefinitely without charges.
Turns out I am not the only one who [...]

Really do explode like pumpkins? I’m just asking because of the whole Obama picking Tim Kaine to be the new chair of the DNC thing. See, not only is Kaine anti-choice, but he is also anti-gay. Obama sure does like these homophobes, doesn’t he? He constantly surrounds himself with them, Kaine [...]

Thanks to New Hampster, we have this little tidbit of info, and I hear that the Daily Kossacks are having a HISSY FIT about Emanuel getting this job — those dopes — we tried to tell you KoolAid dipsomaniacs and thugs! At best, Barack Obama is an ordinary politician. At worst, he is [...]

Barack Obama is a creation of like-minded professional and amateur political operatives. Whether it’s the corrupt Chicago Machine or the so-called progressives with their socialist agenda or the ruthless and power-grubbing leaders of the Democratic Party, Obama has arrived at the top of the ticket and tied in the polls as a politically “made [...]

During the primaries and up until the convention, many Obama supporters pushed the narrative that Hillary supporters had to go through the classic stages of grief before we accepted Obama. On Correntewire, Lambert writes that Josh Marshall and others:
started running the “stages of grief” trope on Hillary supporters way back in February—you know, from anger, [...]

Judging by both press and internet commentary this past week, we seem to want Hillary to literally assume the mantle of Joan of Arc once again …
Some want her out front and center railing against sexism to defend Sarah Palin:
‘Hillary’s legacy is in jeopardy! She is not living her principles! After what she [...]

This is what I’m seeing from those who think we should fight dirty, anything goes, everyone, including children of family members are “fair game”. Below are the comments I’m seeing on a few of the blogs. Below are those who approve of playing dirty…..
You go, girl.
1. Muckraking is necessary — always.
2. It’s [...]

It goes without saying that most of the major bloggers — Markos, Josh Marshall, Digby, and many others — were so blinded in their desire to sink Hillary that they allowed (and even engaged in) unrelenting sexism and race-baiting.
Their behavior during the campaign was so far from being progressive that I’ve concluded that they’re [...]

(SADDLEBACK DEBATE-JOHN McCAIN VS BARACK OBAMA)
Obama did it again, he blew another debate. Now, this should have been a simple debate, the question, in my opinion were pretty straightforward and didn’t deal with difficult subjects like the economy or taxes. And most of all, he was debating John McCain, the guy that every Democrat [...]

Let me start off by saying that I have never been a fan of the DailyKos. Something about that site always made me uneasy and I have rarely frequented it. My intuition was confirmed this past January when the DailyKos started advocating that Democrats in the state of Michigan cross over into the Republican primary [...]

The absolutely brilliant cover of this week’s New Yorker magazine has progressive Internet sites up in arms. (Check out Memeorandum.com’s tracking of the flood of blog posts.) For example, at dailykos.com over 1,400 comments have been made in less than two hours about the topic, “OMG and WTF, have you seen this?”

The other night, I wrote in “The Choice (But I’ve Been Touched) – A Long Overdue Update“:
[M]any Kossacks attacked the blog founder Markos (”Kos”) Moulitsas when he announced he was withholding his $2,300 donation to Obama’s presidential campaign because of his dismay with Obama’s backpedaling on FISA, public financing, and more. Kos titled his essay, [...]

Late on the evening of February 21, 2008, I was transformed. Alas, it’s been quite a while since I’d visited the site, “Is Barack Obama the Messiah?,” and I didn’t realize how much I’d missed. On February 21st, I discovered:
I’ve been touched by the “bluesman from Chicago.” I’ve been inspired by the “new synthetic [...]
