So what does he think of minority conservatives? http://twitter.com/#!/GenNerd/status/447001709600976896 Considering the way he glowed with pride when he called Herman Cain […]
http://twitter.com/#!/democracynow/status/233644795829026817 The story alleging ties between investment firm Bain Capital and Salvadoran death squads has been making the rounds for a while, but the highly publicized ad from Priorities USA linking Mitt Romney to a woman’s cancer death has many asking not only has Romney killed, but how many?

According to several Twitter users, he was at one point a student at Gateway High School in Aurora, Colo. I didn't know you personally but I saw you around the halls of Gateway HS. R.I.P. AJ Boik. You will be missed. — Javier S. (@JAViS_96) July […]

Dogs are amazing friends and companions. They are loyal, loving and will always have your back. Saying goodbye to them is never easy, but this Reddit user found the perfect way to see off her long-time friend. Meeka the dog was 16 years-old when she needed to be put down. It was the right thing […]
http://twitter.com/#!/MustardSeedish/status/463102210453168128 The hashtag #MayThe4thBeWithYou was big today, and #HappyStarWarsDay is still trending: Sen. Ted Cruz used the occasion to offer a reminder that the Rebel Alliance—“the people”— face a tough battle against the Empire, or “Washington, DC establishment” as Cruz described them. Cruz says in the video that “the people will prevail”: http://twitter.com/#!/SenTedCruz/status/463092770434191360 The Force […]
http://twitter.com/#!/Messina2012/status/461321261239386112 That’s the latest example of unicorn-magic hope from Jim Messina, campaign manager for President Obama’s 2012 re-election campaign and former White House Deputy Chief of Staff. We expected to write a post lamenting that all the liberals on Twitter agreed with Messina.

http://twitter.com/#!/GaltsGirl/status/420592748710744065 No kidding. Earlier today, before Senate Democrats — and six Republicans — voted to invoke cloture on the bill to extend long-term unemployment insurance, former Bush White House press secretary Ari Fleischer made an interesting observation: http://twitter.com/#!/AriFleischer/status/420569108170563584 It’s certainly felt that way to us. Now, it’s worth noting that the Emergency Unemployment Compensation program […]
