Eric Holder’s Very Bad, Posterized Day
I’ve been meaning to write a couple posts about Attorney General Eric Holder’s testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee earlier this week, but other oblgiations have imposed themselves on me. However, there are a couple points I want to share. Before I do that, I want to note that the progressive already had their go-to talking [...]
Sometimes, Learning Stuff is Fun. Especially if a Kangaroo is Involved
Thank goodness for pronouns and that no one names their kids Rufus Xavier Sarsaparilla, Gabriela Rafaela Sarsaparilla, and Albert Andreas Armadillo these days.

Apropos of my post yesterday on the phantom “saved or created” jobs here in Maryland (and Eddiebear’s national scoop!), I notice that other folks have found that the administration has stowed a few extra congressional districts in their states, too. Dafydd Ab Hugh discovered that California is actually 44 Congressional Districts larger than he thought [...]
