Calling All Wingnuts

I’ve been called to do a lot of interviews over the last week or two. Something that flummoxed me on several occasions was how to answer the question of precisely what a wingnut is.
I just had an eureka moment.
A wingnut is anyone that professes belief in the make-believe world of the ideological right while […]

As some of you may know, one of the latest darling causes on the right is the case of the man that was assured by the girl that she couldn’t get pregnant. Of course, she did get pregnant. And she kept the baby. And the man is mad because he now has […]

Shawn Wasson from Bareknucklepolitics interviewed me for his podcast last week.  It’s up now, if you are interested…

Another Washington favorite of mine is Representative Louise Slaughter.   She has a diary up over at Kos that discusses the Republican response to her report on Washington corruption, America For Sale.
I hope she’s selected as Feingold’s running mate. 
(Non sequiter:  since my last post, I read a piece that claimed Gore may be repositioning himself for […]

It’s time for us to reward good behavior - and punish the wayward.  As most of you will know, Russ Feingold introduced a censure resolution directed at George W. Bush.  In no uncertain terms, Feingold called Bush a lawbreaker.

Wilkow was Wilkow… Nuttier than a Snickers Bar. But this woman… that Wilkow agreed with…
I don’t see how Wilkow ever gets out of middle market…
I don’t want to create another post for this, so I can tell you here… Tonight I was on the Lars […]

With Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Ohio, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee and West Virginia considering new Rapist Protection Acts similar to the one passed in South Dakota, I figured it was time for me to ramp up the calling operation.
Where better to start, I thought to myself, than with the king of talk, Rush Limbaugh.  […]

At Salon, the War Room, a blog by Tim Grieve, has two posts covering the recent Wilkow dust-up.
I’m not going to say too much - I’ll let the pieces stand alone…  but I will tell you that Wilkow’s attempt to portray this a personal thing between me and him is absolutely ridiculous… 
Anyway…  here are the […]

Regular visitors: Olbermann is doing another segment tonight on the O’Reilly calls. The next two posts are for the folks that might find this site for the first time as a result of tonight’s show…
For those of you visiting for the first time after seeing the segment on Olbermann…
I want you to join […]

to set the Fox News Security apparatus on his callers…
Funny, I’ve called Bill about fifty times over the last 2 or 3 years… No FBI… No CIA… No State Police… not even a local cop…
I wonder if they are staking me out… Waiting to pounce…
I sometimes wonder what it would […]
