Calling All Wingnuts

Wilkow couldn’t believe that Americans want Democrats to take the Congress back.
I did something I need to do more of in this call… Locally, Congressman John Sweeney is facing his toughest re-election bid since he won his seat. His district is a disgusting example of gerrymandering and is one of the reddest in […]

Medved was making the incredible claim that George Bush is fiscally conservative…
I couldn’t let it go… But in this call, he makes masterful use of limiting my time and using his mute button… he never addressed the pork issue and pretended that giving huge tax breaks to oil companies wasn’t a form of […]

Digby has a great piece up about conventional wisdom and gutless democrats and journalists inside the beltway.
The conventional wisdom in DC has now ossified into a reflexive notion that Democrats must do nothing. Ever. They must hold back and say nothing when the Republicans are on top and they must hold back and say nothing […]

Not too long ago, there was some pretty earnest discussion regarding the Bush administration’s “Inflection Point”… When did their public image change - from brimming with confidence and riding high into their second term… to the lost and floundering bunch of incompetents they appear to be today?

Today was “Disagree day” on Medved… I took it as an opportunity to point out the rampant hypocrisy involved in defending the morality of republican politicians while attacking democrats on a daily basis…

The article gave a run down of my past local activism (mostly calling Albany’s mayor on his Friday morning radio show) and then, much more in depth, […]

Hannity got something right!
Hannity: Ya know what? This guy made the case for weapons of mass destruction - chemical, biological, nuclear - this is…
Me: He believed the President, you mean?
Hannity: Well, I mean, it’s a cute little line, but it’s - it would show how utterly and completely idiotic and incompetent […]

CallingAllWingnuts is about to live up to its name.
Because talk radio is such a rich vein of wingnuttery, it is easy to limit our efforts to that medium…  But to set such limits would be to unnecessarily restrict the universe of Wingnut targets…
CallingAllWingnuts will expand to call all wingnuts.  Why not ring up Ann Coulter?  Why […]

I called Laura this morning to refute a winger’s letter she had read claiming that morale was being undermined by the Democrats… Everything about this call was a broken record, but I especially enjoyed Laura’s assertion that as we get closer and closer to victory, the terrorists become more an more desperate…
Ugh… I’d […]
