Bush’s Parting Shot On Women’s “Reproductive Rights”

The issue of abortion on demand is one I typically avoid for the most part, except regarding late term and parental notification, but, this one is just was too over the top to ignore Undermining women’s reproductive rights and access to health care has been a pervasive theme of the outgoing administration.

Surrender Monkey Friday: Give Super Michelle A Paycheck

On of Surrendies favorite things, when it comes to surrender, is when newspapers surrender to massive idiocy in pushing a political agenda.

Grey Lady Wonders If Blogo Actually Did Something Wrong

The big question is, is The New York Times publishing the story to protect a Democrat (a label they failed to assign to Blogojevich anywhere in the story), or, just simply a story with no political calculation? Kinda hard to know with the MSM anymore. Legal Hurdle in Blagojevich Case: A Crime, or Just Talk? […]
