Please note: This video is graphic and disturbing. It is something you don't want to see. But I think that maybe it's something you need to see. Her name was Neda. Her name, in Farsi, means voice. She was killed...
Conservatives mock volcano monitoring, and a volcano erupts. Then they mock pandemic preparedness, and a flu pandemic hits. Attention conservative politicians: I will max out contributions to your next campaign if you publicly mock Megan Fox showing up at my...
I have a feeling this image will be one of the most lasting memories of this day:...
I'm going to love watching the wingnut's heads explode over the oath of office stumble....
A couple of lines from the inaugural address that I particularly liked: As for our common defense, we reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals. Our Founding Fathers, faced with perils we can scarcely imagine, drafted...
My friend Fosco has written extensively on the issue, and with a greater personal connection, but one does not have to be discriminated against to condemn the fact that others are. The fight to recognize the right of all couples...
Alternet.org reports: Rove Planning to 'Name Names' of Bush Haters in His New Book. Damn that'll be a big book....
As an early supporter and campaign volunteer I was ecstatic with Barack Obama's landslide win one week ago today. I was especially please to see my home state of Indiana turn blue for the first time in my life. The...
