I’m not someone who necessarily believes in “political correctness” or altering my choice of words just because someone might be offended. I have come to believe that it is polite to address someone by the gender they identify with, just like I was taught that you should address your elders as “Sir” or “Ma’am” – because […]

Donald Trump Joins The Starbucks Boycott Stupidity
November 10, 2015 By 3 Comments
The ridiculous outrage over the 2015 Starbucks holiday cup started with gun fanatic and so-called “evangelist” Joshua Feuerstein encouraging his followers to boycott the coffee chain – or get the baristas to write “Merry Christmas” on their cups of expensive coffee. The whole thing was so ridiculous that when Fox News posted about it on […]
Sorry, The Liberal Media Isn’t Trying To Destroy Ben Carson
November 7, 2015 By 64 Comments
Once again, the folks over at the conservative website National Review have published something so ridiculous that I have no choice but to respond. Last time it was their pathetic attempt to link Bernie Sanders to Nazis and ignoring the fact that Germany was under fascism and National Socialism, which is nothing like Democratic Socialism. […]

October 13, 2015 By 9 Comments
Dennis Prager recently wrote an article for National Review claiming that liberals really hate Ben Carson. He also defends the bizarre comments that Ben Carson made regarding the Holocaust when he claimed that Hitler might not have been as successful in his goals had people been armed.

American Conservatives Are More Interested In Controversy Than Sane Policy
October 8, 2014 By 17 Comments
Kevin Williamson is a conservative correspondent for National Review noted for, frankly, making an ass of himself. Williamson was the writer who wrote a passage in a piece he wrote that described an African-American boy (who Williamson estimated to be about 9 years old) making the “gesture of primate territorial challenge.” He’s also against voting, […]
Conservative Dennis Prager Asks ‘Who’s Racist?’ and Fails
June 4, 2014 By 3 Comments
Conservative pundit Dennis Prager is probably the whitest person I’ve ever seen. That doesn’t make him a racist, but it certainly doesn’t give him authority to take over a conversation defining racism. And given his arguments about voting restrictions and Herman Cain (among others), it’s safe to say that Prager trying to pin racism on […]
