Kate Dickens, aid to Mike Castle: [Christine O’Donnell] is a con artist who won by lying about Castle’s positions and her own life. Out of state support was enough to pull her through yesterday so she can rely on it through November.
Mitt Romney: Now is the time for Republicans to rally behind their nominee, Christine O’Donnell. She ran an impressive campaign. I believe it is important we support her so we can win back the U.S. Senate this fall.
Month: September 2010

Eager to bridge a daunting enthusiasm gap, Democratic National Committee Chairman Tim Kaine recited a list of President Barack Obama’s accomplishments Wednesday to an auditorium packed with George Washington University College Democrats.
It came as he unveiled a new website, a new logo and a new slogan for his party: “Change That Matters.”
Wow, this sort of crazy, “out of the box” “thinking” will really “move” the public and reassure them that The Democrat is “here to lead.” Just wait ‘till the GOP sees this unstoppable package of Democratic Fury.
After all, who needs to go around rocking the boat by pushing policy and an eat-shit, GOP legislative calendar built on top of concrete and popular ideas when you can reboot the web design?
This is why they fail.
Well, creationism, in essence, is believing that the world began as the Bible in Genesis says, that God created the Earth in six days, six 24-hour periods. And there is just as much, if not more, evidence supporting that.

This Statue of Liberty was gifted to us by foreign leaders, really as a warning to us, it was a warning to us to stay unique and to stay exceptional from other countries. Certainly not to go down the path of other countries that adopted socialist policies

Or: The Two Most Important Graphs The Democrat Won’t Show You. Ever.
We will fuck him. Do you hear me? We will fuck him. We will ruin him. Like no one has ever fucked him!
Karl Rove, as reported by Ron Suskind, “talking to an aide about some political stratagem in some state that had gone awry and a political operative who had displeased him.”

Everything he’s saying is unfactual. He’s the same so-called political guru that predicted I wasn’t going to win. And we won, and we won big. So I think he’s eating some humble pie.
Christine O’Donnell referring to somebody named Karl Rove. I imagine this will go over well in the Hallowed Halls.
There is no policy that President Obama has passed or proposed that added as much to the deficit as the Republican Party’s $3.9 trillion extension of the Bush tax cuts. In fact, if you put aside Obama’s plan to extend most, but not all, of the Bush tax cuts, there is no policy he has passed or proposed that would do half as much damage to the deficit. There is not even a policy that would do a quarter as much damage to the deficit.

Yep. And, if you’re The Democrat, you shall never speak of this. Ever. Too complicated, apparently.

Uh, progress?
Glenn Greenwald takes an even dimmer view of the Awlaki “kill first, charge later” move:
It would actually be progress if the Obama administration were considering bringing charges against Awlaki in lieu of killing him without due process. But there’s no indication that’s so.
Worth noting for the tl;dr set: Awlaki is a US citizen, has been sentenced to death without actually being charged with anything, and is only “suspected” of inflammatory sermons…which are probably protected speech anyway. May God bless America!
The Obama administration is considering filing the first criminal charges against radical cleric Anwar al-Awlaki in case the CIA fails to kill him and he is captured alive in Yemen.
Matt Apuzzo, writing for the Associated Press.
Nothing defines America more than these core Constitution protections: Kill first, then charge. Thank God the Founders had the foresight to put that in writing once and for all; truly a boon for citizens living some 225 years later.
Yet, one would assume, a poll of Tea Partiers and other Strict Constructionists would be broadly supportive of this kind of nonsense and would wonder after the squeamishness of questioning it at all.
