That catering to the right wing is why Democratic candidate Bill White is rising in the polls. It'll bring more Democrats and moderate Republicans and Independents to the polls and we'll be rid of Rick Perry.

06/24/10, MSNBC - Republican Minority Whip Eric Cantor repeatedly said that the most senior House Republican on Energy, Joe Barton, "is not the issue."
Scarbourgh...a Republican by the way...doesn't let him slide....this is funny!

Not the ISSUE...did you see that after eating crow in front of the GOP folks yesterday he tweeted yet again sticking his foot way deep in his mouth. Everytime this man opens his mouth, Bill White is one step closer to being Govennor of Texas!!! go Barton go!!

Sean Hannity deceptively edited comments President Obama made during a 2007 Senate hearing to falsely accuse Obama of "attacking General [David] Petraeus." In fact, in comments cropped out of the video, Obama made clear his criticism was directed at President Bush and was "not a criticism" of Petraeus. The funniest part is listening to Coulter, all she contributes is "right, right, right..." what a good little Faux "news" person she is!

Tea Party Confessional

"Strategists deliberately try to stir up rage among average Americans, calculating that it's much easier to push a political movement if it's deeply frightened than if it's entirely hopeful. "We're playing to the reptilian brain rather than the logic centers, so we look for key words and images to leverage the intense rage and anxiety of white working-class conservatives," the consultant writes. "In other words, I talk to the same part of your brain that causes road rage."

Can you believe this quote? "What do Tea Partiers, Truthers, birthers, Birchers, militias, Pat Buchanan, Jerry Falwell, Barry Goldwater, Joe McCarthy, Father Coughlin, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Sarah Palin, Michelle Bachmann, Ronald Reagan, Strom Thurmond, Rand Paul, Alex Jones, Orly Taitz, and Oklahoma City bomber Tim McVeigh all have in common? ... See MoreApproximately nothing, but don't tell Chris Matthews," wrote Lachlan Markay at Newsbusters. "

Does this guy seriously not see the connection? Excellent presentation by Matthews.
