Dems Surrender over Taxes for the Wealthy

Following on from yesterday's post. And Obama wonders why some of his supporters are disillusioned.

Christine O'Donnell Scares Democrats into November vote

She's an interesting one, for sure. A mouse with a fully-functioning human brain might do a better job than the Congressional Democrats have done, however, as their cowardice and pandering leads to lower and lower poll numbers. What a bunch of pussies.

But Sox win again last night, Yanks lose - still breathing.....

Evan Bayh Votes Against Environmental Regulation

Story is here. You literally could hardly make up a more craven corporate lap-dog than Evan Bayh. Unless, of course, you were talking about all the other blue dogs or the entire GOP legislative body in both houses.

Democrats Low Enthusiasm

Tea Party Loon Opposes Masturbation

I share this, from the Guardian, regarding the Republican nominee for the Delaware US Senate seat. Strange days indeed, but what a great time to be a political cartoonist... The media, of course, ignores or facilitates all the Republican Party's other bullshit but freaks out over the one issue that they can all agree is a fundamental human right.

O'Donnell, who is pro-gun, anti-abortion, fiscally conservative and believes masturbation is a sin, won by 53% to 47% for Mike Castle, who has served the Republicans for 30 years, including stints as governor and in Congress.

O'Donnell was the leader of the Christian lobby group Saviour's Alliance for Lifting the Truth. In a television interview a decade ago, she said: "The Bible says that lust in your heart is committing adultery. So you can't masturbate without lust."

She will now stand for the US Senate in November for the seat vacated by Joe Biden when he became vice-president two years ago.

Koran Burning on 9/11

These people are unbelievable. Gen Petraeus said to the AP that

"images of the burning of a Quran would undoubtedly be used by extremists in Afghanistan — and around the world — to inflame public opinion and incite violence." It was a rare example of a military commander taking a position on a domestic political matter.

I first read about this at PZ Myers. He cites the story here but I'm sure it's all over the media here. Thanks to my brother Ken for posting this cartoon too.

And since there are only two days left, please don't forget to vote for my cartoon in the UCS national contest - it's Number Ten here!
