This page from last August by a Palin supporter in Arizona was just taken down within the last hour after the horrific shooting in Tucson of Rep Giffords and others. The page uses violent rhetoric inspired by Sarah Palin’s "target" website which included Giffords in a list of 20 "targeted" Democrats. As a commenter noted after the news broke but before the takedown, "words matter." The pageholder defended himself and expressed sympathy, but also claimed that a political hit list is somehow different from a Mafia hit list. No, it’s exactly the same to any literal-minded right-wing nutjob who thinks…

The more senior members thought they knew better. Even sweeter, one of the oathskippers was anti-gay…

Then I moved to the Chicago suburbs, where it’s every OTHER year or so, but I can usually stave it off with my cold-weather asthma regimen. Just Don’t Breathe If you have to be outside Thursday along the Wasatch Front, try to not breathe, deeply, at least. The Utah Department of Environmental Quality has issued a “red†air quality alert for Salt Lake, Davis, Weber and Cache counties. That means that residents of those regions are banned from burning…

Wow, I actually got a comment that isn’t spam, a request for a washing machine part, or looking for Fry Sauce. It’s from a recent post called “My God is the God of the Poor,” which was just a link to a awesome recent post by Pastor Dan that ***Dave passed along. In it, I said as I quoted pastordan Something else I believe as a liberal Episcopalian, put a little more aggressively: My God is the God of the poor. You can be for the poor or you can go to hell. A month later, I get this rather…
