Well, it turns out the birthers are right-Obama’s birth certificate is a fake.  They were just obsessing over the wrong one.
World Net Daily and various birthers* are very excited because finally, some brave soul has stepped up and anonymously-because he’s afraid for his life-sent in a photograph of Obama’s Kenyan birth certificate.  Or not.
Despite World Net Daily’s assertion that, “The new document… shows none of the obvious traits of a hoax,” many have found a couple hints.  Like the fact that the registration record is from 1964- three years after …

Take it from me-being a Christian in the United States is tough.  Our faith is under attack at every turn- cashiers at Target saying “Happy Holidays,” our children going up to 8 hours at school without forced prayer, adults being able to decide who to marry, godless Muslim socialism in the White House.  And in just one of the many small insults, we’ve seen an explosion in the use of this Jewish “kosher salt,” pushing good old-fashioned regular salt, with heartland values, off the shelves.
But while the rest of us …

Apparently there is no difference between post-racial America and racial America.

One of the hallmarks of the soon-to-be-over Bush administration has been the tendency to appoint people as heads of an agency who actually think that the agency shouldn’t exist, and want to destroy it.  Knowing that, the reports coming out about the Voting Rights division at DOJ shouldn’t be too shocking.  And yet somehow, they are.

In that incident in August 2004, Voting Section Chief John Tanner sent an e-mail to Schlozman asking Schlozman to bring coffee for him to a meeting both were scheduled to attend. Schlozman replied asking …

Let’s say you’re the Governor of a state which has, historically, had a somewhat loose relationship to political ethics. For the past couple years, you’ve been under investigation, an investigation that has even led to the indictment of a few of your colleagues. In fact, there’s a good chance that many of your conversations are being taped, and you’ve even dared the Attorney General to do so. Due to a recent event, there’s a great deal more national attention being paid to you then before.
Given all this, do …

I was sitting in my apartment in Communist Country, just outside of Real Virginia , talking to my liberal elitist husband eating a salad made from arugula and other vegetables purchased at Whole Foods.*  And we are 100% sure that in the five years we’ve lived together we have not spent, combined, $150,000 on clothes and accessories.  In fact, between clothes, accessories, and furnishings in our apartment, it’s highly unlikely that total is above $150,000.
But then, unlike real, working-class Americans, we’ve never even bought anything at Neiman-Marcus.  As elitists, we …

So, earlier today after we learned that John McCain was suspending his campaign and wanted to cancel the debate scheduled for Friday, my friend and I were talking and trying to figure out the strategy behind this absolutely ridiculous proposal. I jokingly suggested that perhaps McCain was only testing the waters here because what he really wanted to do was cancel the Sarah Palin/Joe Biden vice-presidential debates scheduled for next week. However, I should have known that satire and sarcasm have nothing on the McCain campaign.
