This was classic. Last night, The Daily Show lampooned this past weekend's Tea Party Convention, and it did so brilliantly. Watch the first segment, if you don't believe me. This is especially cool, because the convention so richly deserved to be lampooned, whether because of Tom Tancredo's xenophob ...

The smugness and condescension of these women is irritating as hell, but please watch, so we can talk about this: There's no balance, with Meghan McCain in lieu of Elisabeth Hasselbeck. McCain is way too eager to win the love of liberals. She says: Congressman Tancredo went on TV, and he was the fir ...

There was much to mock about this past weekend’s Tea Party convention: the low turnout, Tom Tancredo’s repulsive immigrant bashing, and, of course, Sarah Palin’s keynote lite. But it would be a huge mistake to … It’s hard for the average person to understand why these obscene Wall St. bonuses are no ...

Republican Tom Tancredo opened the Teabag Party convention this past weekend (in which Sarah Palin was notoriously photographed with a cheatsheet handwritten on her palm) with a rousing call for a “literacy test” for voters. The “literacy test” was a pre-civil rights method utilized in the South to ...

WorldNetDaily.Com Like most “emergency” programs set up by government, the benefits of gaining “Temporary Protected Status,” or TPS, as a refugee do not expire when the emergency has passed. In government jargon, “temporary” can be 20 years – or forever. The federal government has no system for trac ...

That's what the former Colorado Congressman and 2008 Republican Presidential candidate did when he gave his speech during the opening night of the National Tea Party Convention in Nashville this past Thursday night.

I really like Cenk's take on this. The US was actually set up to ensure that all religions could be practised freely, rather than the very narrow definition which Tancredo gave to the Convention. And, as I look at footage of that Convention, I am really hard pushed to see any person of colour anywhe ...

As Palin does what Republicans always appear to do, aligning herself and her fellow tea partiers with "ordinary folks"and"truck drivers", two things strike me as odd about this claim. First, how many "ordinary folk" can afford to spend $549 to attend a political rally? And secondly, when Tom Tancred ...
