Characterizing the America-hating cartoonist Ted Rall as an America-hater apparently gets his panties in a bundle. Unfortunately, Taranto's apparently too good a man to take Rall up on his offer -- so I'll do it for him. What do you say Teddy-boy America-hater? You (the America-hater) and me in a Toughman fight with the proceeds […]
The Democrats have a complete moron as the head of their party. These people think President George W. Bush is dumb, but Howard Dean is a gibbering idiot. He also said the president was partly responsible for a recent Supreme Court decision involving eminent domain. "The president and his right-wing Supreme Court think it is […]
You'll forgive me if I first believed that this article in today's Washington Post was a spoof written by a junior high school French student just a little to impressed with herself. It has been a long time since so much syrupy nostalgia has been in evidence at the White House. But Tuesday night, when […]
California Attorney General Bill Lockyer, hoping to lock up the San Francisco area vote, has decided to hang the following "art" in the lobby of his office. Rumor has it that Lockyer will be running for state treasurer next year -- and he'll probably get it because he's a Democrat. Sometimes we get the government […]
Today's nutty statement of the day comes courtesy of The Washington Post's Bob Woodward.

WOODWARD: I would have done it, too. And in fact, you […]
Fox Butterfield is a New York Times reporter who periodically has people point at him and laugh. Why? Because of articles like this one. The number of inmates in state and federal prisons rose 2.1 percent last year, even as violent crime and property crime fell, according to a study by the Justice Department released […]
The San Diego Union-Tribune's Ruben Navarette makes a bad call in today's paper. I can't believe I'm defending Tom Cruise. Yep, that's a big mistake. Instead, Cruise kicked off a debate over a subject that a lot of people don't feel comfortable discussing: whether Americans are too quick to turn to prescription drugs and whether […]
It appears as though Bush Derangement Syndrome can be fatal. An avid atheist, he studied the bible [sic] and religion with more fervor than most Christians. He had strong political opinions and followed Amy Goodman's radio broadcast "Democracy Now." Alas the stolen election of 2000 and living with right-winged Americans finally brought him to his […]
A former Bush administration insider has concluded that the wacko conspiracy theory that the Twin Towers were destroyed not by terrorist flying airliners into the buildings, but rather by pre-planted demolitions at strategic points is the real truth. So, we should believe this former Bush administration employee because he's a structural engineer, right? Oh, he's […]
