Agenda 21… Are America’s city planners in on the United Nations plot to enslave us, and force us onto bicycles?

By Mark | November 26, 2012

There’s only one thing people on the far right hate more than the United Nations, and that’s the United Nations setting international guidelines for sustainable development. I learned this a few days ago, while listening to a special episode of Glenn Beck’s radio program about a secret UN initiative to deal with the looming threats [...]

Michigan’s 6 ballot proposals and how I intend to vote

By Mark | November 5, 2012

Other than trying my best to convince folks to vote for Syed Taj and Barack Obama, and against the likes of “mentally unbalanced” Tea Party-favorite Kerry Bentivolio, the race-baiting Pete Hoekstra, and the climate change denying serial liar Mitt Romney, I haven’t really said much about the upcoming election. To be honest, I didn’t think [...]

Syed Taj, Muslim candidate for Congress, subjected to outrageous racist attacks

By Mark | October 29, 2012

Last week, when I noticed that the American Medical Association (AMA) had started taking out television ads in support of our friend Syed Taj, I knew that racist attacks from the right were inevitable. The AMA ads signaled to me that the race was close (as the AMA doesn’t invest in races that aren’t winnable), [...]

Would the Republican leaders of yesteryear have engaged in birtherism?

By Mark | August 28, 2012

I find myself, for some reason I don’t quite understand, watching grainy, old footage of William F. Buckley this evening, instead of doing something that I might actually enjoy, like reading the motivational affirmations of Old Spice pitchman and rising action star Terry Crews. I think, subconsciously, the seed was planted earlier today, when I [...]

Speaking on behalf of Christ, Santorum warns of Obama’s plans to feast on the blood of euthanized seniors

By Mark | February 20, 2012

I heard a comedian by the name of John Fugelsang do a pretty brilliant bit the other day on the incredible disconnect between the teachings of Jesus and the actions of those who invoke his name in the pursuit of political power. It’s nothing we haven’t discussed here before, but I enjoyed Fugelsang’s perspective, given [...]
