The rhetoric just keeps getting crazier and crazier at the hate site that Andrew Breitbart built, as head attack weasel Joel Pollak posts a demented rant about fascism and the "lickspittle" Huffington Post. Yes, it's another absurd post about the Benghazi boogaloo, and Pollak is absolutely certain there's a "cover-up" ...

The right wing blogs and Republican politicians are still pushing their demented conspiracy theories about Benghazi, and the Daily Caller has yet another stupid post riling up their goonish audience. Every President delegates authority in situations like Benghazi, but for some reason (I bet you can guess what it is) ...

A great piece at The Daily Beast by Michael Tomasky (with thanks for the shout-out to LGF): GOP Attracting Minorities? Let's start with African-Americans. Republicans, whatever they might say publicly, won't actually try to win more black votes. Why? Because the positions the party would have to embrace to win ...

What might America look like if the Republican Party's anti-science agenda were enshrined into law? For an answer, let's look at Turkey, where religious fundamentalists in the government recently took a very dangerous, tragically misguided step, a step that many in the Republican Party would like to take in the US: ...

California Senator Dianne Feinstein is planning to introduce a bill in January that would ban the sale of military-style assault weapons, and this has driven the right wing nuts (a short drive) -- because Feinstein's bill also covers semi-automatic handguns.
