You’d think after “Maverick” McCain ran to the right and got clobbered last November, the Republicans would try to hit the comeback trail by edging toward the center.
Think again. The “tea party day” tax protests were more proof, if proof were needed, that the party of Lincoln and Liberty is bound for the farthest shores [...]

There are two astonishing liars out there. One of them lasted for 24 hours. The other remains America’s Sweetheart™. And one wonders: what has happened to the old concept of “truthfulness.” (And of “Truth” itself among the self-proclaimed moral mavens of the bloviating class.)

From the Huffington Post column written by the person who endorsed Barack Obama today.
