Keeping Up Appearances

Michelle Malkin's blogging partner Doug Powers and conservative disinformation center First Things are peddling what appears to be a photo-shopped picture in order to attack those that attended the wildly successful Stewart/Colbert rally.

You be the judge:



This will work for conservatives looking to defend their authentically documented instances of signage that not only displays a complete lack of grammar skills but how they are more than willing to go Full Godwin at the drop of a hat.

Some Thoughts For Your Morning

- Looks like one of the leaders of the Republican party isn't entirely pleased with Rand Paul's performance. Mitch McConnell, Republican minority leader and Senator from Kentucky, is taking on Rand Paul on his home turf. This is going to get even more interesting the closer we get to November.

- Isn't it convenient when conservatives at Fox"News" continually use the "technical error" excuse? They are at it again after a video clip of Obama giving a commencement speech at West Point was used online and the applause was strangely absent. I guess that "zero tolerance" policy for these types of "mistakes" isn't working out so well.

- Looks like someone took Erick Erickson's "shotgun" threat to heart, only she ended up pulling it on the cops too. So are we going to stop allowing conservatives to claim that there is no violent actions be perpetrated by the Tea Baggers?

- Conservatives and Fox"News" are practically wetting their collective Depends in trying to claim that the Obama administration isn't doing anything about the Gulf oil spill. A Republican Congressman from Louisiana recently took after the President on the House floor in a seriously misleading tirade. The reality that every conservative in America is missing is that the government is actually doing a lot.

- There really is no Godwin's Law within the conservative realm. And with DADT finally on the chopping block, conservatives are all in when it comes to discussing the Nazis, gays, and the military.

- After Rand Paul's admission that he thinks that private businesses should be able to discriminate on the basis of race, and the rightfully ensuing media coverage, it appears that there is a shake-up within his campaign to try and find some people that will help control the message and perhaps shield Paul from any more justifiable criticism. The trouble with this new campaign structure is that one of the key players on Rand's team was the man that defended Ron Paul for taking donations from neo-Nazis.

Worth 1000 Words

I'm totally going to break Godwin's Law on this one.

I snagged this image from the Fox Nation website.



I'll pass on the goofy pose Obama is striking, but am I the only one that sees what it seems like Limbaugh is about to do? Seriously. I wouldn't put it past him to practice this in the double full-length mirror in his bathroom each morning.

Godwin's What?

Typical Limbaugh



The anniversary of the Economic Stimulus has gotten some conservatives' knickers in a twist since they have to keep up the narrative that it somehow failed.

These people always had a skewed version of success and failure anyway.

Like Godwin's Law On Steroids

Never one to actually come out and say that Barack Obama is something, instead resorting to hosting guests that are more than willing to do so or using the "cavuto mark", Neil Cavuto - on his Fox"Business" show - thinks he has this one in the bag.

He was wrong.



Swing, and a miss.

I'm guessing that some producer that is responsible for booking Cavuto's program just got fired.

One has to wonder what Obama's speech has to do with "business". Perhaps they thought that doing this interview with the stock-crawl at the bottom of the screen would let them claim that simply discussing the Obama speech, and their attempts to equate it with Nazi appeasement, had a direct effect on the positive gains on the DOW for that day.

However, I would have loved to see Churchill take Cavuto to task for his "powerful 5%" nonsense.
