New Olympic Sport Proposed - How Often Can Republicans Be Wrong and a Danger to Democracy




































Conservatives suggest cutting Utah’s budget deficit by eliminating mandatory 12th grade.
As states around the country face budget crises, “deficit peacocks” continue to demand cutting social spending while ruling out tax increases on those who have benefited immensely from years of conservative policies. In Utah, deficit peacocks are suggesting eliminating mandatory 12th grade to help close the state’s $700 million budget gap
A dumber America is conservatism's goal and has been for some time. Informed educated people tend to reject the anti-american rightwing agenda.

Hannity Ignores Major Taliban Capture
The commander, Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, is an Afghan described by American officials as the most significant Taliban figure to be detained since the American-led war in Afghanistan started more than eight years ago. He ranks second in influence only to Mullah Muhammad Omar, the Taliban’s founder and a close associate of Osama bin Laden before the Sept. 11 attacks...His capture could cripple the Taliban’s military operations, at least in the short term, said Bruce O. Riedel, a former C.I.A. officer who last spring led the Obama administration’s Afghanistan and Pakistan policy review." The news was part of a Fox News alert at the beginning of Greta Van Susteren's On The Record. But there was no such news during Hannity. At several points during the show, I saw "live" on the screen so we know that at least part of the show was live. This clip from the same day shows the time as being about 48 minutes into the hour, when we know the news had already come out, and it has the "live" stamp. Has Sean Hannity suddenly become uninterested in terrorism? I doubt that, especially since on the same show he attacked Obama's Deputy National Security Adviser, John Brennan, as being unfit for the job for at least the second time this week.


Yet more evidence that Hannity and Fox's attacks on Obama's Deputy National Security Adviser, John Brennan are all about the partisan and UnAmerican Conservative politicizing of terrorism. Why Hannity, Fox and conservatives hate America remains a mystery. Congradualtions to our commander-in-chief president Obama and the military for capturing this Taliban scumbag.

When they're not hating America, conservatives are always busy hating science and rationalism, Fox News twists words of climate scientist Phil Jones in its continued assault on global warming theory
