Too far, however, is where Limbaugh is paid to go – he is a cartoon monster, and that’s precisely what makes him so dangerous. The trouble with cartoon monsters is that no one quite believes they’re real. […] When somebody is paid to say the worst possible thing, it allows someone else to say the …
A whopping 46 percent of likely GOP primary voters said they think interracial marriage should be illegal, while only 40 percent said they think it should be allowed. Another 14 percent said they were unsure. It was only 45 years ago that Mississippi legalized interracial marriage, and this poll indicates it continues to be a …
It’s weird. Chrysler aired a superbowl commercial last Sunday that, narrated by Clint Eastwood, goes on about it being “halftime in America.” The tone is optimistic, patriotic, impassioned.

Just when you thought the GOP candidates field reached its low-point, Gingrich calls to repeal child labor laws. Yes.
