Some callers to a radio talk-show are outraged (OUTRAGED, I tell you) at this photograph of President Barack Obama:

I’m going to go way out on a limb here and speculate that they are, largely, the same people who voted for this bulwark of mores:

If you’re going to knock a public servant, let it be on [...]

My word but we Americans have turned into a disastrously impolite lot.
It’s not as if we aren’t living in a time when embracing one another and endowing each other with just a bit of kindness and thoughtfulness would be an excellent idea. We have an extraordinary opportunity – right now – to show the world [...]

If you’ve been watching our economic and market health plunder while scratching your head, thinking, “How does something like this happen?” this visual presentation might be one that you find helpful.

If you’re demented, you’re wasting people’s lives – your family’s lives – and you’re wasting the resources of the National Health Service.
Those aren’t my words. They’re the words of one Lady Warnock, a veteran Government adviser in the United Kingdom, who is touting the values of promoting active euthanasia on patients who have become demented [...]

This kind of talk is quite frightening. Never mind that she refuses to give a straight answer (apparently, the Straight Talk Express never made it up to Alaska), but note the language that she uses.
Terrorists, Islamic Extremists, destroy America, Terrorists, Terrorists.
This is the language of fear and it’s designed to hoodwink [...]

For those of you playing along at home, please put your game piece into the “Will Not End Well” spot on the game board. The fed has just taken over Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae — the mortgage granting institutions that account for almost half (yes, half) of all home mortgages in the United States [...]

Whoa, Nelly! Check out Ron Paul at the Rally for the Republic (he comes in around 15.00). The event was organized by Paul’s Campaign for Liberty and it hosted just over 12,000 enthusiastic, patriotic attendees.
