So why doesn't Dana Rohrabacher want to talk to his Democratic counterparts in California's congressional delegation in bipartisan meetings? Sure, we've heard the official version-- and based on that, I concluded Wednesday morning it was probably just another case of small-minded partisanship. But on Wednesday afternoon, the Surfin' Congressman appeared on CNN's Nativist Variety Hour Lou Dobbs Tonight, and let loose a bleat of wounded pride. And now that the transcript is avail
I still don't know all the ins and outs of Facebook, but I do know that I belong to a group called the Orange County Supper Club (and something called "Lou Dobbs Is An Ignorant, Xenophobic Jack-ass!," but I digress). From their website:The OCSC was created to encourage Orange County couples and friends to
get together once a month for some good eats and a whole lot of fun.
Each month we will chose a different location by suggestions and then a

Saturday Night Live had this skit years ago where they presented a Fugitivesque TV show called The Last Liberal. With all the talk on Fox News and conservative talk radio about the rise of Socialism in Obamerica, Bill Moyers decided to go out and find The Last Socialist to get the other side of the story.

'Bosomy? Not only is that irrelevant, it sails dangerously close to the ingrained misogyny of tabloid coveragesomething I would have thought your paper would want to avoid.'
If I was given a penny for every time California Coalition Immigration Reform head Barbara Coe passed off lies as truths, I'd be richer than Henry T. Nicholas pre-government investigation and Don Bren pre-recession combined. Her latest gaffe proves probably better than ever why Coe's nicotine-stained brain is blacker than her heart. In the same email where Coe tells followers to avoid ethnic restaurants, she forwarded an article written by one Madeleine Cosman about how illegals are shutting dow
As if California Coalition for Immigration Reform head Barbara Coe couldn't get any more out of the mainstream--and if we've done anything in our years at this rag, it's to show that Babs is one of the vilest people to ever live in Orange County (think about that for a bit)--there's this: Coe is a Birther!In an e-mail sent yesterday to her minions, Coe forwarded an email with a link to CNN liar Lou Dobbs ranting about President Barack Obama and wondering if he was, indeed, born in the Unit
Clockwork Coker sent me this Photoshop job he saw posted on Crooks and Liars: It's the "Taitz-Tanic," see. Lou Dobbs is being targeted by Media Matters for his questions about Barack Obama's eligibility for the presidency, while Laguna Niguel's attorney/dentist Orly Taitz has recently faced a number of public setbacks in her quest to remove Obama from office. Hence, the ship's sinking.With her unrelenting drive and flair for... drama... Taitz does sometimes seem like a movie character. Or a c
