The shooter in the Sikh temple shootings in Wisconsin has turned out to be affiliated with the neo-Nazi community. So I guess we won’t be seeing a bunch of interviews with his friends saying what a nice and normal guy he was. Now we just wait for Louie Gohmert to say that this would never have happened if the people attending services at the temple were all carrying guns.
Do you think there’s nothing more un-American than Republicans trying to suppress the vote? Well, Republicans came up with something—hiding behind our soldiers when they try to do it. This year in Ohio, Republican lawmakers eliminated early voting in the last three days before the election. The early voting elimination didn’t apply to current members of the military, because there is a federal law covering that. The Obama campaign sued to have early voting restored to all Ohioans. The Romney campaign tried to make it seem like Obama was trying to take early voting away from military personnel! The Obama lawsuit plainly states “Plaintiffs bring this lawsuit to restore in-person early voting for all Ohioans during the three days prior to Election Day.” It’s hard to twist that around. Give it to Mitt Romney—he never picks the easy lies.
Obama is trying to get voting rights for all Ohioans... including current members of the military. Romney is trying to deny voting rights to everyone else... including former members of the military. The Republican restrictions on voting apply to over 900,000 veterans in Ohio. Veterans in Ohio have the same voting rights as any other citizen—which means as few voting rights as Republican politicians can get away with giving them. Republicans don’t like early voting. They don’t have a problem with the “early” part as much as they have a problem with the “voting” part.
Harry Reid says that Mitt Romney may not have paid any taxes at all for 10 years. Mitt responds that he paid “a lot of taxes.” He actually repeated the phrase “a lot of taxes” for emphasis. When Mitt Romney tells you something twice, you know that there’s something else he REALLY doesn’t want you to know.

For over a week, Republicans have refused to focus on anything but so-called scandal. And, it turns out, that's exactly the way they want it. On Thursday, the Heritage Foundation, a prominent conservative think tank, sent a letter to...
A new CNN poll shows Obama's favorability rating at 53 percent. That's up from 51 percent in April, and up from the 51.1 percent from the poll that really counted last November. Like before the scandals, 45 percent of people disapprove of the...
Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives have made their point – they hate Obamacare. And, just in case anyone didn't get the message the first 36 times they made that point, they're about to waste even more taxpayer...

It seems that the Republicans won't stop until their attacks over Benghazi are as vicious as the attack in Benghazi. The Republicans would have you believe that the Obama administration altered the talking points on Benghazi out of political...
