There is no question that the current crop of crazies contending for office, masquerading as Republicans, are dangerous, stupid and evil.
Sharron Angle, Christine O’Donnell, Carl Palladino, Rich Lott and Rand Paul to sport a mere hand full. Angle believes the government should force a child to bring a baby to term despite that baby being the result of incest and rape. But she opposes government control of just about anything else.
O’Donnell is woefully unqualified as well as a chronic liar who believes among other things that people shouldn’t masturbate because it’s the same as adultery.
Angle and Paul are closely associated with a group of jerk off physicians (AAPS) that posit abortion causes breast cancer, that it’s evil and immoral for doctors to participate in Medicaid or Medicare, that tobacco taxes harm public health, that electronic medical records would be a form of “data control” similar to efforts of East German secret police.
Palladino is a raging homophobe bigot and Lott gets his jollies prancing around in an SS/Nazi uniform.
This is not your father’s Republican party. These people are outta their goddamn minds. Crazy as shit house rats and as festooned with the gore of hypocrisy as any human walking erect. They pine and wail about the Constitution while they seek to impugn and mitigate it over crap notions like “anchor babies.”

A California man angry about health care reform allegedly made threatening and harassing phone calls to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, including at least one call in which he got through and spoke to her directly, law enforcement officials said. Gregory Lee Giusti, 48, was arrested Wednesday at his San Francisco home, according to Joseph Schadler, spokesman for the FBI’s San Francisco office.

During the Bush years, we specialized in covering the politicization of the U.S. justice system as much as any news organization. Our archives are about the most comprehensive for anyone researching the prosecution of former Alabama Gov. Don Siegelman, and the original case against Richard Scrushy, which Glynn Wilson covered for The New York Times.
