Robert Reich: Romney-Trump in 2012! →
robertreich:
What could Romney’s handlers be thinking when they hyped his connection with Donald Trump — fundraising with Trump, offering supporters the possibility of a meal with Trump, relishing Trump’s attention and endorsement?
Trump signifies everything Romney presumably doesn’t want people to associate…
I think this nails it! Romney in one small post! Fuck you’all! This is...

– Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), the sponsor of an amendment to the Senate’s version of the defense budget removing some of the restrictions on abortion funding in military medical facilities (only in the cases of rape or incest, but this is a start), which was approved Thursday by the Senated Armed...

Why not close the day out with this interesting stat of the day?
Robert Reich: Romney's Regressivism →
robertreich:
Fine to nail Romney with Bain Capitalism. But let’s not forget Romney’s budget proposal, which mimics Paul Ryan’s. Take a moment to make yourself aware of both, because they’re eye-opening and scary. Both would restore the military budget, slash Medicare (turning it into vouchers that shift…
It amazes me that people don’t understand this! How can they think that...
Man Tweets Sandra Fluke: ‘shut that … d**k sucker’ →
How clueless can one guy get? Did he think he was making private comments? He need some Midol! For the love of God, man, get a grip on yourself; buy a clue! My 8 year old daughter has more control over herself & she’s dealing with a hormone surge!
Undecided Women, Don’t be Fooled: Your Control of... →

stfuhypocrisy:
Women, especially young childless undecided women voters, are talking about jobs, not abortion rights, right? What women really care about is not contraception, not access to family planning resources, not social issues like gay marriage, abstinence-only sex “ed” or Mitt Romney’s 50 year old bullying. Nope – it’s the economy. Women, “like everyone else,”–...

cognitivedissonance:
If you heard about the lawsuit filed by 43 religious organizations in regards to providing insurance that covers contraceptives, you’ve probably heard the intellectually dishonest point that the church isn’t trying to shove religious beliefs down people’s throats. Honest!
Well, that shit is nothing new. Arguments against providing said coverage were rejected eight years ago...

Facepalm: American Exceptionalism →
facepalmfrants:
There seem to be quite a lot of people, mostly on the right, that think that America is just the greatest, coolest, super-est country in the history of the world. Any criticism of America from someone like Obama means he doesn’t like America, wants to change it, apologizes for it, thinks it’s bad.

You know the Secretary of State in Arizona who’s demanding Obama’s birth certificate to certify him for the ballot? I thought I’d give him some helpful suggestions via email:

Robert Reich: How Odd that Mitt's Smitten With... →
robertreich:
Mitt Romney is full of praise for Bill Clinton even as he heaps scorn on Obama.
“Almost a generation ago, Bill Clinton announced that the era of big government was over,” says Romney, “Clinton was signaling to his own party that Democrats should no longer try to govern by proposing a new program…
Romney is unbelievable in his words & deeds; at times just laughable!

– Mitt Romney to WBTV in Charlotte, N.C., discussing the protests at Bank of America.
Oh, we young people don’t understand “real jobs” and “what banks do,” yeah?
I argue we do. There’s a lot of us working two and three minimum wage jobs, going to school, graduating, barely surviving, or some...

cognitivedissonance:
Seriously. Movies.com has the story:
George Lucas’ rich neighbors don’t want him building a movie studio in their backyard. His response is the best thing he’s done in years.
According to the San Francisco Chronicle, for four decades Lucas has owned a large swath of land in Marin County in the North San Francisco Bay and has spent the past few years trying to transform...
Robert Reich: Of Bedrooms and Boardrooms →
robertreich:
The 2012 election should be about what’s going on in America’s boardrooms, but Republicans would rather it be about America’s bedrooms.
Mitt Romney says he’s against same-sex marriage; President Obama just announced his support. North Carolina voters have approved a Republican-proposed amendment…
Well said

J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., the nation’s largest bank, whose chief executive, Jamie Dimon, has lead Wall Street’s war against regulation, announced Thursday it had lost $2 billion in trades over the past six weeks and could face an additional $1 billion of losses, due to excessively risky bets.
