What to Get Your Repub for Christmas
Author: velveeta jones    Date: 08/04/2013 14:29:27

There are only 142 days 14 hours until Christmas and you still have no idea what to buy your republican friends? Well, Velveeta is here to save the day.

One of the easiest ways to find the perfect gift is to know their tastes. Let's take a look at things they hate.

An open Saturday
Author: TriSec    Date: 08/03/2013 11:02:47

Good Morning!

An early morning, but no platelets involved. I'm off to do some trail work with Mr. Bean this morning - we've partnered with the Friends of Mary Cummings Park as their corporate sponsor (The park is a half-mile from the store).

I know we've had a few open blogs of late....but it's summer, cut us some slack! (Or better yet, you could write one!)

Anyway, here's some ice cream. The cows are out back. (Middleton, MA)

The Circular Firing Squad
Author: BobR    Date: 08/02/2013 12:10:39

Anyone who remembers the Republican party of the "aughts" - that is, the years GW Bush was president - remembers a party that marched in lockstep. They were disciplined, on message, and formidable. Even now, they tend to vote unanimously, even when it's against something they used to support (just because President Obama supports it). After a few bad election cycles, however, the cracks are showing, and self-preservation and grandstanding are replacing the loyalty they once had.

Rotten to the Core: Groundswell and Congressional Collusion
Author: Raine    Date: 07/31/2013 15:53:00

Last week I wrote a post about the coordinated efforts on the right to manipulate the public via the media. Mother Jones broke the story of a group called "Groundswell". On Tuesday Morning, our friend Karoli at Crooks and Liars posted actual audio (transcript here) from one of their meetings and it is proving to be eye-opening. Remember the IRS scandal? It was created by Groundswell.

Time to Take This Seriously
Author: BobR    Date: 07/29/2013 12:34:29

When people go to the polls, they are voting for the person they believe will best represent them in government, whether it be local, state, or federal. Not every person will be happy with the results, but majority rule is the best and fairest method we have. One has to wonder, however, who the current crop of legislators in Congress are representing. Do the majority of Americans really understand the causes and likely cures for America's ills, or do they just look upon politics as another form of Championship Wrestling, cheering on their guy as they go through the motions of pretending to legislate?

Sunday Relax Blog

Velveeta is too angry from all the republican hatred to write anything that wouldn't possibly lead to suicide or homicide. So it's open today. Enjoy this video of a porcupine eating a 'nannar.

The Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy
Author: Raine    Date: 07/26/2013 12:58:37

A very interesting article was published by Mother Jones yesterday.
One of the influential conservatives guiding the group is Virginia "Ginni" Thomas, a columnist for the Daily Caller and a tea party consultant and lobbyist. Other Groundswell members include John Bolton, the former UN ambassador; Frank Gaffney, the president of the Center for Security Policy; Ken Blackwell and Jerry Boykin of the Family Research Council; Tom Fitton, the president of Judicial Watch; Gayle Trotter, a fellow at the Independent Women's Forum; Catherine Engelbrecht and Anita MonCrief of True the Vote; Allen West, the former GOP House member; Sue Myrick, also a former House GOPer; Diana Banister of the influential Shirley and Banister PR firm; and Max Pappas, a top aide to Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas).
