OK, so where have I heard this before? Yep, yet another one of those “we hate poor people” statements from yet another Republican politician. I know, it’s like these people just don’t get it; and quite frankly, I don’t think that they even care to. This time around, Minnesota State Rep. Mary Franson has released a YoutTube video [...]

So the Plan B or morning-after Pill isn’t going to be sold over the counter to females of all ages. Instead, it would be sold to females 17-years-old and older who are able to prove their age. You know, sorta like they do for alcohol and tobacco that some how kids under seventeen somehow manage [...]

Listen, Newt Gingrich is a political whore. That’s right; I said it, and I friggin’ meant it. Truth is, Newt hasn’t met a dollar he didn’t like. I heard Newt blowing the usual same ole GOP dog whistle, of talking shit about poor people the other day. Specifically, I heard he said some ole bullshit [...]

Last Friday, 34-year-old Zurana Horton’s instincts prompted her to throw herself on top of a group of children in front of a Brownsville public school and shield them from gunfire coming from a rooftop.  As a result, Zurana was fatally shot in the head… dying instantly. Later, 18-year-old Andrew Lopez (who was arrested along with [...]
