(This group is getting uglier and uglier every day.) By David Edwards and Muriel KaneWednesday, April 14th, 2010 -- 11:32 am CNN host Rick Sanchez described the leader of an Ohio Tea Party group as "a bigot and a liar" on Tuesday, after he had first referred to Hispanic immigrants as "spicks" and then attempted to defend himself by claiming he had merely been quoting a 1960's Bee Gee's song. Several weeks ago, during a march supporting immigration reform, Tea Party leader Sonny Thom ...

By David EdwardsWednesday, July 7th, 2010 -- 2:24 pm A recent Supreme Court decision hailed by Republicans but condemned by most Democrats may be helping to stuff the coffers of conservative political groups founded by Karl Rove.

By Raw StoryThursday, January 21st, 2010 -- 8:47 am "Health care reform — which is crucial for millions of Americans — hangs in the balance," NYT columnist Paul Krugman opined Thursday. "Progressives are desperately in need of leadership; more specifically, House Democrats need to be told to pass the Senate bill, which isn’t what they wanted but is vastly better than nothing. And what we get from the great progressive hope, the man who was offering hope and change, is this: ...

Just imagine if a Muslim school taught this in the United States. Instead, an accredited law school here in the United States is actively instructing its students to place religious law above the laws of the United States. Apparently, so long as it is Christianity, and not Islam, no one needs to fear. Late last month, after federal authorities arrested a Tennessee pastor on charges of aiding and abetting an international parental kidnapping, students at Liberty University Law Schoo ...

Texas governor 'proud' to be in Glenn Beck's 'army' It seems conservative firebrands are seeing God's punishment everywhere these days. First there was televangelist Pat Robertson who in January told his audience that the Haitian earthquake was punishment for Haiti's founders having signed a "pact with the devil." Then came radio host Rush Limbaugh, who last week suggested that the Iceland volcano was "God's punishment" for the US passing health care re ...

By Ron BrynaertTuesday, May 4th, 2010 -- 12:07 pm It took many years for Senator John McCain to lose his unofficial RINO (conservative acronym for 'Republican In Name Only') status. And even though the Arizona senator has done his best to mollify conservatives that he backs a controversial new law which critics say will lead to racial profiling of Latinos, Republicans related to him in family and politics are taking the opposite point of view. At Bloomberg News, Keven Hassett, an eco ...

Former President Bill Clinton got into trouble with conservatives after he compared today's political climate with the climate preceding the Oklahoma City bombing. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich seems to be having a moment of his own: in a little-noticed appearance Wednesday, he suggested that the Tea Party will become the "militant wing of the Republican Party." But this time, conservatives aren't up in arms. While speaking at an event in York County, Pennsylvania Wednesday, Gin ...

By Sahil KapurFriday, January 15th, 2010 -- 9:17 am President Barack Obama's chief political strategist on Friday slammed his Bush administration counterpart Karl Rove for allegedly making up "his own facts" about Democrats.

"[G]iven the shape in which ...

Texas governor pans drilling safety regulations, suggests ‘God’ to blame for BP’s oil disasterBy Stephen C. WebsterMonday, May 3rd, 2010 -- 8:34 pmIf the very Christian, very Republican governor of Texas is right on this one, he may soon find it politically expedient to rethink his allegiances, what with 2010 being an election year and all. That's right: according to Republican Rick Perry, no amount of safety requirements can prevent an "act of God," which may or may not ...

By Sahil KapurMonday, January 11th, 2010 -- 8:14 pm Far from overreaching on health care reform, a plurality of the public thinks President Obama and Democrats have done too little to regulate the insurance industry, hold down costs and extend coverage, a new poll finds. Forty-three percent of Americans said the health care bill goes "not far enough" in regulating health insurance companies, according to a new CBS survey released Monday evening. Just 18 percent deemed it "about right" and 27 p ...

By Daniel TencerWednesday, April 14th, 2010 -- 3:09 pm For the second time in the past few months, conservative commentators see something sinister in an Obama administration logo.

By Daniel TencerFriday, January 8th, 2010 -- 3:50 pm The conservative American Family Association is calling on President Barack Obama to fire Amanda Simpson, Obama's transgender appointee to the Commerce Department, because the appointment "puts the weight of the federal government behind the normalization of sexual deviancy."

By Stephen C. WebsterSunday, January 10th, 2010 -- 11:04 pm It's a perfect storm for former lawmaker Sarah Palin. A book due out this week by political journalists John Heilemann and Mark Halperin has all the right politicos sweating and backpedaling, from John McCain to the Senate majority leader, and even Bill and Hillary Clinton. But in "Game Change", it's Palin who really takes it on the nose. According to an advance copy thoroughly dog-ear'd by The New York Times, some Mc ...

By Raw StoryWednesday, January 20th, 2010 -- 3:24 pm Democrats have conceded they can no longer pass healthcare on their own, ensuring that their key legislative reform either dies or accepts further compromises to gain approval from Republican members. What's more, they've decided to outline their case to the public through a set of talking points issued to Democrats after Tuesday's election upset in Massachusetts. Their meme?

By Daniel TencerWednesday, January 20th, 2010 -- 8:18 pm The Mormon church worked to hide its involvement in the 2008 effort to ban gay marriage in California, telling the Proposition 8 campaign that it wanted "plausible deniability" in its connections with the movement, documents revealed in a California courtroom Wednesday show.

By David EdwardsThursday, January 14th, 2010 -- 10:17 am UPDATE: The White House joined the growing chorus of condemnation surrounding televangelist Pat Robertson's comment that the earthquake in Haiti was the result of a "pact with the devil" the nation's founders made when fighting against French colonial rule in the 18th century.

By Raw StoryWednesday, January 20th, 2010 -- 1:56 pm As recently as earlier this week, US House Rep. Steve King was worried that the outcome of the special Senate election in Massachusetts would be determined by voter fraud. But now that his side has won, the Iowa Republican is attributing the electoral victory to something else: A "miracle" from a (presumably divine) "intervention." "How could you possibly ... spend enough money and take away enough liberty, that the three-and-a-half to one ...

By Raw StoryMonday, January 18th, 2010 -- 4:00 pm For years, many Islamic clerics have been arguing that the US's war on terror is a "holy war" against Islam. Now, those critics of US foreign policy have more ammunition to argue their point. A Michigan supplier of sights for high-powered rifles has long been etching subtle references to Jesus on equipment it sells to the US military, possibly in contravention of army regulations that forbid religious proselytization. Trijicon Inc., of Wi ...
