I Blame Our Educational System

Man this teabagger video is tough to watch. On the one hand its infuriating the kind of ignorant shit they are saying about President Obama and his legislative agenda. But on the other hand I have to admit that on a certain level I felt sorry for some of these people. When the interviewer near the end starts explaining to them about some of the things that are completely wrong about you can almost see a lightbulb going on over their head. Some of these people have genuinely been brain washed and either don't know how or haven't bothered to look up information on their own and instead simply rely on FoxNews and other right wing sources. If we could just get some of these people in a room and give them unbiased sources of the truth I would bet you that many of them would be ashamed of themselves. But the climate in our country right now is such that its almost impossible to reach these people because the sit in their houses behind closed doors and truly believe that the worst places to look for the truth are the only places that are telling the truth.

Excuse me while I get some aspirin.

A Prime Example

Republicans think its cute to play these kind of games with racial politics in this country. I wonder how funny it will be when they get their asses kicked again next year...

Yep, That'll Do It

I think this attack ad against Judge Sonia Sotomayor may just be the nail in the coffin for the foreseeable future with the GOP's relationship with Hispanics.
