Since Rudy Giuliani's ugly comments about President Obama not loving America, I've been making the point that Scott Walker is deliberately dodging the question because he simply can't afford to alienate the deeply deranged base of Republican voters if he plans to run for president. Today at the Washington Post, ...

Wow. Here's Erick Erickson, supposedly one of the main voices of conservatism in this debased climate, passing judgment on President Obama and declaring: Barack Obama Is Not a Christian in Any Meaningful Way. And the reason Erickson gives for this judgment: Obama admitted having doubts about religion. He just isn't fanatical ...

Right wing media are already taking President Obama's comments at this morning's prayer breakfast out of context in order to play into the hateful attack that our President is a terrorist sympathizer who hates Christians. Hot Air accused the President of comparing Christianity to ISIS: Drudge went with the single out ...

YouTube This lesser-known song from the album "Home" was always one of my favorite Procol Harum epics, and this live performance from Denmark in 2006 is actually a big improvement over the original album version, with a symphony orchestra and choir adding to the mix beautifully. I'm pretty sure some parts ...

Some concepts are not really worth pursuing. For example, reclaiming the swastika as a Buddhist symbol of good fortune? Not gonna happen.

It's bizarre to watch the right wing news sites trying to settle on a way to spin President Obama's action against ISIS inside Syria; they alternate from hand-wringing fear that Obama isn't doin' it right, to attacking Obama for doin' it at all, to completely ignoring the fact that Obama ...
