What the hell was that?!!

If you came to visit us between 11pm and 11:18pm, you may have seen some things that didn’t look very much like Pinko. That is because we needed to make some emergency upgrades to our thingy that does our stuff. It’s all very technical and I don’t know about you, but I’m bored already. Long [...]

Vigilante shootings in New Orleans; Read, watch and write.

A quick plug for a story I’ve been working on at The Nation. It’s a massive investigation by A.C. Thompson into vigilante shootings after Hurricane Katrina. There are two parts, the first is about shootings of black residents by white vigilantes while they were trying to flee New Orleans. The second is about one specific [...]

PINKO DAILY BRIEFS. Oh snap Sarah Palin is toast! An Alaska investigator ruled last night that Palin abused her power in the “Troopergate” scandal, an only-in-Alaska debacle where Palin and her first dude husband worked tirelessly  to get her former brother-in-law fired from the state police force. Palin, the report concluded, has governed in an abusive manner [...]

Straight Talk for the rest of us.

I have always loved Howard Dean. He revolutionized the way Democrats run campaigns with his fancy internet fund raising and 50 state strategery. In many ways he was like the metal skeleton beta-version of the unstoppable liquid metal Obama. Also, he totally would have won in 2004 if John Edwards had announced that he was [...]

Racism, Sexism and Mike Myers

No, we’re not talking about The Love Guru. Although, if we had the intestinal fortitude to sit through it I’m sure we’d have some gripes there as well. No, we’re talking about John McCain’s latest internet video.
The video, which stoops lower then even the record breaking lows of the campaign ads that proceeded it, features [...]

Jesus Christ what TERRIBLE people.

Holy shit. So these two cousins in Louisiana, Hue and Cindy Vo, were co-valedictorians in their graduating class and they got to make a speech. They talked about their memories of high school, their friends, etc. Then because her parents don’t speak very good English, Cindy added a line in their native Vietnamese as a [...]

Open Thread Madness, Grover Norquist Edition

Conservative douchebag Grover Norquist is calling Obama “Kerry with a tan.”
So what does that make Grover Norquist?

No! Not The Country Club!!

First Tiger Woods and now THIS?!
“Even if you never met him, you know this guy,” Rove said, per Christianne Klein. “He’s the guy at the country club with the beautiful date, holding a martini and a cigarette that stands against the wall and makes snide comments about everyone who passes by.”
Rove went on to say [...]

Patterns

This idea that white people aren’t going to vote for Obama in the general election is very troubling. It’s also built on very faulty logic. No Democrat nominee has been able to capture a majority of the white votes in the general election since before 1992. (Read that line again, slowly.) This is because democrats don’t traditionally win Presidential races by getting a majority of white voters.
