When NQ faithful reader, Doc99, sent me this article, I had to check that it wasn’t from The Onion, or any other satire site. But no, this is for real, “Mormons Throw Support Behind Gay-Rights Cause.”
Well, I’ll be a monkey’s uncle. Sure never saw THAT one coming. I’ll give you a moment [...]

Dear Mr. President:
I read a post on the Whitehouse blog called “Facts Are Stubborn Things” that said:
Scary chain emails and videos are starting to percolate on the internet, breathlessly claiming, for example, to “uncover” the truth about the President’s health insurance reform positions.
And that:

Yes, it’s all her fault.
Not only is the media actively working overtime to shrug off, ignore or [...]

The Democrats are celebrating, Republicans are lamenting and MSM are excitedly analyzing every nuanced angle of every political strategy imaginable over Arlen Specters decision to switch his nearly four decade affiliation as a Republican to that of a Democrat. An excerpt from his statement earlier today in the WSJ:
