labman57 commented on the blog post Huntsman to Endorse Romney, Impact Should Be Very Minimal
Irony. Huntsman has flip-flopped on his opinion of the candidate that he condemned as a master flip-flopper.

labman57 commented on the blog post Santorum’s America: No Birth Control but Lots of Free Money for Babies
Irony. The same folks who push for legislation permitting anyone to carry a concealed weapon in public are also those who want to prevent people from obtaining birth control.
Because they believe in “protection“, they just don’t believe in “protection“.

Ryan and his fellow health insurance lobby lackeys in the Republican Party took a “General MacArthur” approach to destroying our nation’s Medicare system. His plan would not have made it immediately die — he simply wanted it to slowly fade away.

To the House Republicans, “traditional family values” means unplanned pregnancies by unwed, under-aged teenagers.

labman57 commented on the diary post Congresswoman Giffords Shot in Arizona by Teddy Partridge.
This is a logical outcome of the extreme hyperbolic rhetoric that has become a mainstay of the tea party movement — calls to “take back the country” and resort to “Second Amendment remedies” will only serve to boil the blood and embolden the irrational thinking of a handful of the most fervent supporters of Angle, [...]
