By: Teddy Partridge Wednesday July 13, 2011 7:24 pm

Leaders of SPLC-designated hate groups rushed to defend leading presidential contender Michele Bachmann’s business, her husband Marcus’s clinic, from widespread publicity about their ex-gay “ministry and counseling.”

I’m Trying to Change This Water to Whine

I seriously have better stuff to do, but….

Paul Ryan, the Patron Saint of Austerity, Frugality, Abstemiousness, and Asceticism …. For You, was hanging out with a few of his economist bros at a local eatery, just pounding down some $350 bottles of wine over ultimate nachos and jalapeno poppers, when he was confronted by an economist lady who pointed out that it was kind of unbecoming for a Congressional leader to be living high on the hog when the rest of the country is made up of hobos living on food stamps and shriveled lime peels found in the dumpster behind the Felix Lounge.

Busted! Bachmann Clinic Caught Doing “Ungaying” They Said They Didn’t Do

By: Phoenix Woman Sunday July 10, 2011 8:08 am

Most Minnesotans who follow politics in the state figured that Bachmann and Associates, the counseling clinic run by Michele Bachmann’s husband Marcus, did professionally-discouraged “ungaying” therapy even though Marcus has denied it for years.

Context Is The New Civility

By: Eli Friday April 29, 2011 6:01 pm

Well, what do we have here? A deceptively-edited video purporting to show liberals saying the kinds of terrible things that conservatives insist we say when we think no one’s watching? Gee, I wonder where that might have come from…

Peter King Needs to Be Object Lesson in Our Failed Counter-Terrorism Approach
