When President Obama condemned Arizona’s draconian and potentially unconstitutional immigration law last Friday, he predicted that “if we continue to fail to act [on immigration] at a federal level, we will continue to see misguided efforts to open up across the country.” Indeed, it’s already happening.
Last week, Wonk Room reported on the involvement of the Immigration Reform Law Institute (I...

Tea Party activists go out of their way to insist that they’re not partisan, racist, or filled with hate; they’re just patriots who want to stop a “socialist” government machine from controlling their daily lives.

At a town hall event in Utah last night, Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) warned Tea Party activists that they should work with the GOP, or risk electing liberals:
Tea Party activists in the crowd were not pleased, with one telling Hatch, “I think you guys are as out of touch as you can get.” Tea partiers may also have been offended at being blamed for Merkley’s election in 2008 , despite the fact ...

The right wing’s predictable policy prescription in the aftermath of any terror incident is to impose greater ethnic profiling of Muslims. For instance, following the Ft. Hood shooting, Sarah Palin said, “ profile away .” After six imams were removed from a plane in Minnesota in 2006, Ann Coulter justified profiling Muslims by arguing that it’s just like “ profiling the Klan .” That same year, aft...

Right-wing billionaire David Koch , who along with his brother Charles owns the oil and gas empire Koch Industries, constantly presents himself as a champion of science.

This Saturday, right-wing protesters will gather in Washington DC for a march to oppose health reform and President Obama. The event, scheduled intentionally on September 12 to coincide with the anniversary of the day following the September 11 terrorist attacks, was conceived largely by Fox News’ Glenn Beck. However, most of the day-to-day organizing has been orchestrated by a now familiar set of...

Appearing on Glenn Beck’s Fox News show last week, Fox anchor Kimberly Guilfoyle proposed the latest right-wing conspiracy theory about the Car Allowance Rebate System (commonly referred to as “cash for clunkers”) — that it is a secret plot to allow the government to control your computer:
Watch it:
Guilfoyle may be worried about the “Terms of Service” on a government site. But as ...
