[lib-'tär-did] of or referring to a person, of theoretically normal intelligence, whose uncritical acceptance of liberal talking points makes him or her sound like a complete moron
See you in church!
LOL! It just looks like they didn’t photo shop the photo [of Bachmann on Newsweek] which is bad for her as a conservative woman because the only way a conservative woman can make it to the big time it to be attractive. This photo has killed all of the wingnut’s boners, so in other words she’s toast.

Today Texas Governor Rick Perry held his prayer rally “The Response,” with a panoply of the most insane, bigoted, and outright racist fundamental Christian leaders imploring their God to help them turn America into a repressive theocracy.
No, I’m not exaggerating.

“[I] want to focus on one particular suggestion you had about using the wonderful digital tools that are newly available for the reinvigoration of democracy,” Gore said. “Now, they have been around for a while, but they are spreading far and wide and more people are getting involved. We need to have an American spring — you know, the Arab spring. The non-violent part of it isn’t finished yet, but we need to have an American spring, a kind of an American non-violent change where people on the grassroots get involved again. Not the, you know, not in the Tea Party-style.”

Libertarians do not understand that people do things for a myriad of reasons, being compensated and making a living being only one of those reasons. Because Libertarians love only one thing: money. They do things for no other reason.
Reminds me of when I was going to college in Augsburg’s Weekend College program. Most of the adults there were going for a business degree while I went for computer science. I couldn’t help but think how sad it was that these people have no interest in anything. No interest in inventing something. No interest in producing something. All they care about is squeezing a profit out of what someone else does.

Is preventing violent assault or murder part of your daily routine, rather than merely something you do when you venture into war zones? Because, for women, it is. When I go on a date, I always leave the man’s full name and contact information written next to my computer monitor. This is so the cops can find my body if I go missing. My best friend will call or e-mail me the next morning, and I must answer that call or e-mail before noon-ish, or she begins to worry. If she doesn’t hear from me by three or so, she’ll call the police. My activities after dark are curtailed. Unless I am in a densely-occupied, well-lit space, I won’t go out alone. Even then, I prefer to have a friend or two, or my dogs, with me. Do you follow rules like these?
So when you, a stranger, approach me, I have to ask myself: Will this man rape me?

“The model of media manipulation used [with tobacco], Gore said, “was transported whole cloth into the climate debate. And some of the exact same people — I can go down a list of their names — are involved in this. And so what do they do? They pay pseudo-scientists to pretend to be scientists to put out the message: ‘This climate thing, it’s nonsense. Man-made CO2 doesn’t trap heat. It may be volcanoes.’ Bullshit! ‘It may be sun spots.’ Bullshit! ‘It’s not getting warmer.’ Bullshit!” Gore exclaimed.
“When you go and talk to any audience about climate, you hear them washing back at you the same crap over and over and over again,” he continued. “There’s no longer a shared reality on an issue like climate even though the very existence of our civilization is threatened. People have no idea! … It’s no longer acceptable in mixed company, meaning bipartisan company, to use the goddamn word climate. It is not acceptable. They have polluted it to the point where we cannot possibly come to an agreement on it.”
Gore lamented the diminished role that reason and fact-based analysis play in modern U.S. politics.

Markets will rise and fall, but this is the United States of America. No matter what some agency may say, we have always been and always will be a triple-A country.
