Good stuff, and it doesn't just pick on libs. I think a couple of the comments made by talk show or talk radio people were said or meant in jest but they were still called out on them.
I'll have to check this site out more when I have the time. Thanks for the link!
BTW, I'm curious about "backwards typist". Is there a reason behind the name? I crochet backward (the opposite way everyone else does). Since my Vikings, as I knew they would, let me down yet again, maybe I'll rename myself the "backwards crocheter"? LOL.

I used that moniker because I sometimes type the wrong letters; i.e., I want to type an L and I'll do an S, etc. At the time I chose this moniker, I was doing it quite often.
I also used to crochet backwards. Used to frustrate my MIL. Haven't been able to crochet in years after a strange illness where I was unable to raise my arms over my head, muscle swelling, and constant pain 24/7. I still get an aching pain and some swelling if I try to crochet so I don't do it....and I miss it.

Fact Checking Obama's Budget SpeechApr 22, 2011Some very interesting info in this article.
President Barack Obama misrepresented the House Republicans’ budget plan at times and exaggerated its impact on U.S. residents during an April 13 speech on deficit reduction.
Obama claimed the Republicans’ "Path to Prosperity" plan would cause "up to 50 million Americans … to lose their health insurance.” But that worst-case figure is based in part on speculation and assumptions.
He said the GOP plan would repla ...

Last Night's SOTUJan 29, 2014Well, I thought the President basically lacked passion last night. Nothing he said was with conviction like we've seen in the past. I did not find him believable. The only positive thing I really heard was that he seemed to acknowledge that the economy had not improved during his 5 years in office and he wanted the CEOs of the country to pay their people more money (obviously, I'm paraphrasing here). Hopefully, the CEOs of the MTSOs will take heed and listen to the Commander in Ch ...

Interesting Checking On Syria And Iran Building A Naval StationOct 23, 2012All the pundits, news bloggers, etc. are making fun of Romney's comment on Iran and Syria.
I was curious, so looked up a map of the Syria and the relationship between Syria and Iran. It sits on the Mediterranean Sea. So, no problem with Iran building a naval station in Syria. It gives Iran 2 ways to get to the open ocean and since Iran and Syria are bestest buddies, it makes sense. It would also give Iran and Syria access to missles being able to hit our allies since Iran's missles wo ...
