How come nobody told me this–did I miss a meeting? Apparently the *real* agenda of Democrats, if they retake the House and the Senate, is to, as Jon Stewart might put it, “gay up America”.

Ind. Rep. accuses Democrats of ‘agenda’

he forgot to mention how Democrats will eat your children, require you to sell crack to school children, and attend devil worshiping classes daily

Satan, Charles Manson, and Osama Bin forgotten ALL want you to vote for a Democrat this November

I love Medina’s excuse:

It is unclear why, when the database was checked for the phrase before publication, three times, it did not come up. A similar search on Tuesday, after readers complained, yielded the correct results.

Do we have anything other than Medina’s word to indicate that even one such check was performed? If not, how much credence do we really want to give to her word?

so what is the EDITOR’S excuse ???

and why do any of these hacks still have a job ???

Defiant Iraqi PM disavows timetable

Looks like the puppets have minds of their own.

Or that the meat puppet running this country is really only mouthing politically-motivated platitudes.

In either case, there’s no surprise.
