White House Communication Director Anita Dunn will be leaving her post soon. She is best-known for saying that Fox News was acting as an arm of the Republican Party.
In spite of (or perhaps as proof of) the obviousness of that comment, the collection of Fox commentators ripped into her for those sentiments.
Now that she [...]

Gun people are totally smitten with the Second Amendment. What is this passion for guns?
I won’t even argue with them. We have the right to bear arms.
I don’t hunt, but I don’t object to hunting. And if you are going to hunt, I would prefer you use a gun over, say, bow-hunting.
(Bow-hunters forgive [...]

There is a local gentleman, whom I know very well, who is totally ticked off, and is now organizing people to rally against “socialized health care.”
Do you know the punch line to this? C’mon, you know where I am going, right?
He has both Medicare and Medicaid.

Rush reiterated that Powell’s endorsement of then-Senator Obama was based entirely on [...]

Please sit down and breathe slowly before reading the next sentence. President Obama smiled in an encounter with Hugo Chavez at the Summit of the Americas. Should I repeat that? He smiled.
The always-impartial former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said the smile will be used as propaganda by enemies of the United States. [...]
At the top of EVERY anti-gay movement are several closeted gays. They are not hard to spot. They are the loudest, and making the most outrageous and bombastic statements. They are the leaders.
Why do they do this? Why do gays head anti-gay movements?
I suppose some, as children, were churched to believe that gays are evil. [...]
