The Path to Hell: Trump Proposes Right Ideas in Worst Possible Way Making Things Worse
Be it tariffs without regard for country or origin, agreeing to talk to North Korea after threatening us with nukes, Gun Control that results in MORE guns in our schools, or an infrastructure plan that decimates our infrastructure, Trump has an uncanny ability to turn good intentions into disasters.

The GOP Can’t Replace ObamaCare Because They Don’t Have a Solution
As the GOP prepares to vote for the 71st time (seriously) to repeal the Affordable Care Act, we see no single consistent vision for how to cover more people for less money. Latest plan is to dump the problem off on the states.

Republicans Can’t Devise a Health Care Plan because they DON’T WANT a plan
Republicans are using “Reconciliation” to revise the existing healthcare law. But when Republicans are split between those who was to fix it and those who want to kill it, how do you “reconcile” those extremes?

GOP Healthcare Plan Would Be Largest Shift in Income From Poor to Rich in History
The GOP’s proposed elimination of the Medicaid Expansion in ObamaCare to justify a massive tax cut for people making over $300 Million dollars a year is not just obscene. It’s historic.

Trump Voters Are Discovering a Wish List is Not a Plan
For years Republicans have insisted they have “secret plans” to achieve all the things they want to do, but as was made clear last week, all they ever had was a “To Do” list.

Predictions for 2017: It’s the end of the world as we know it.

Thanksgiving With My Conservative Family Explains A Lot
When you’re the only Liberal in a family of Conservatives living in the South, getting together for the holidays can be a tricky thing.

Ebola Is Only the Latest Terror Helping Conservative Find Their Pro-Big Government Roots (again)
Whenever someone whines “both Parties are the saaaaaaame!”, I tell them (after telling them they’re an idiot) that “the difference between Republicans and Democrats is that Republicans think government is a force of evil that can’t do anything right while Democrats see government as a Public Service that exists solely for the Public Good. You either believe one […]
