Atheists have always argued that this world is all that we have, and that our duty is to one another to make the very most and best of it. ~Christopher Hitchens~

I saw this the other day on Bill Maher. They've done "liberal" to death, so "moderate" is the new liberal.

"Moderate tax raising David Dewhurst wrong for Texas."

Unless you somehow manage to laugh at that, you must cry.

Indeed...at first glance it appears to be an comedic ad from Saturday Night Live or the Colbert Show or something, but sadly, it's actually serious.

Actually, it feels pretty logical and normal when you remember that this is the state that elected GWBush and Rick Perry for guv'ner.

You mean, since they coalesced as a group to get an obscure Illinois lawyer of no morals beyond what would get him money or influence elected into the white house, with the guy's loudly announced stance on certain hot button issues being certain to precipitate a major crisis?

Well, it took a civil war that the nation has never really recovered from, but 150 years later, they still are the major power brokering group on the hill, so I guess it was a success...

Hey, we learned it from Obama who learned it from the Republicans.

Too bad all the Tea party bothers to learn about is all the crap and none of the positive useful stuff that helps everyone, not just themselves.
