ARIZONA (CHARTER) SCHOOL requires students to read books by Glenn Beck's Tea Party hero.

But liberal hero Howard Zinn gets a pass....

Actually they're probably mad because the charter school kids can read.
MOTHER JONES: Scientists Are Beginning to Figure Out Why Conservatives Are ... Conservative.

And of course it's because conservatives are knuckle-dragging Neanderthals, slavering for an opportunity to bash someone/something, and suitable only for "successfully monitoring and attending negative features of the environment" (read as digging ditches and shoveling sh stuff).
FROM A TRICKLE TO A FLOOD: An endless wave of illegal immigrants.

So tell me again it's not Obama's fault.
ERIC HOLDER: Let's try that race card again. Get over it, Eric. We don't dislike you because you're black; we dislike you because you're a narcissistic, incompetent, race-baiting bungler.
RANDOM THOUGHTS: Police arrest ex-Marine in murder of New York mom. Never mind the story itself; it's all too common to waste words on. But why is it that nearly every time a violent crime is reported, the perpetrator's military history (if he or she ever served) is reported regardless of its relevance to the crime?

I don't think I've ever seen a headline "Police arrest Harvard grad in ... (whatever crime)."

Where were you when the Eagle landed? I shouldn't be surprised, I guess, but still, I am. Most of the people in the videos were either young children, or not yet born, when Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin stepped on the Luna's surface for the first time.

That was many, many moons ago....
