A friend asked me about this, and I thought I remembered something about it. But I couldn't remember whether it was an actual study, or more of a rumor. 

There are various Pew studies debating whether Fox viewers are well-informed or not, but on the subject of anger/depression, Google searches are so far not bearing fruit.

That's all. Just a round of applause.

(And tomorrow we'll get back to that 2nd term agenda.)

"As you walk into that voting booth remember:

The only thing we know for sure that Mitt Romney can change, is his mind."

Feel free to share, now at the 11th hour.

Ok gang I know this might be a fool's errand but humor me here.

I have spent a lot of time thinking about why any reasonably moderate person would still believe that voting Republican is a good idea. Here's my latest theory.

Does "Veritasshole" as applied to James O'Keefe of Project Veritas violate the DAG terms of service? Or would "Veritasshole" be considered a new and clever English word?

Normally I am not much for profanity but this new term seems pretty apt as a descriptor for O'Keefe.

For clarification, see today's video of the overly trusting (possibly stoned?) Pat Moran not catching on the the fact that he is being led down the garden path. Hint--watch the "full" version--it's much more clear that Moran is trying to humor someone who won't let him get away.

I want to get this out there: I feel uncomfortable writing something so speculative but I think that there is a possible theological aspect to this case.

Colin Small, the young man who was caught throwing eight voter registration forms in a dumpster in Virginia, is a strong proponent of the Catholic Church's encyclicals Humanae Vitae and Caritas in Veritate.

Here's an update and some context on Colin Small, the young man who was arrested in Harrisonburg, VA last week for destroying voter registrations.

Well folks, this story, if it's a story, has taken a strange turn.

Colin Small, an employee of a Republican firm, was hired to register voters, with an emphasis on registering potential Republican voters. Early in the afternoon of the last day of voter registration in Virginia, he was spotted throwing eight registration forms in a recycling dumpster near James Madison University, a dumpster which is thought to be just a five-minute drive from the Registrar's office where the forms were to be filed.

I have a whole long explanation about why "Move That Chair" should become the slogan that replaces "Yes We Can!" and "Four More Years," but I thought I should put the commercial first because it makes me laugh.

Well, I did it--I updated my Facebook status with the following: 

I am thinking of doing a FB status update to start this off. I think it might have broad appeal. Thoughts?

Dear Komen Foundation,

Breast cancer doesn't care about a woman's religious or political beliefs, and neither should you. Hopping into the political arena by pulling money for cancer screening from Planned Parenthood goes way beyond your mission. Plus, it sends a message that it doesn't matter to you if SOME women get breast cancer or not. That is just low.
