If I don’t pay my taxes…

…can I be on President Obama’s cabinet, viagra buy sovaldi sale too?

The White House today called Tom Daschle’s failure to pay more than $100, search 000 in back taxes a “serious mistake,” but the president still “absolutely” supports his nomination to be secretary of Health and Human Services.

If you’re going to be one of the people running the country, shouldn’t you (at the very least) help pay for it?

Can someone explain to me how the Republicans can STILL be the villians…

…as Frank Rich claims in the New York Times, generic cialis site when the Democrats have overwhelming control of the Whitehouse, treat the Senate, and the House of Representatives?

Isn’t no longer having to take the blame for everything one of the consolation prizes of getting your butts booted out of power?

I’m sorry…

…but I visited the government’s new Strong Middle Class web site and I strongly believe that the middle class deserves a better champion than Joe Biden.

(And I thought Joe was supposed to be the champion of union guys from Scranton or wherever the hell he’s from.)

Do you ever get the feeling that the FBI should just start investigating…

Mayors, discount cialis advice Governors, tadalafil cheap and every other elected official on the first day they take office?

(And maybe someone should remind our elected officials that “taking office” isn’t the same as “being on the take in office.)

Come on, guys, you’re gonna make the native American cry.

Revelers left more than 100 tons of trash just sitting on the ground in Washington, viagra buy viagra D.C. after President Obama’s inauguration.

I’m sorry, sildenafil prostate that’s just not acceptable. Especially for a party that champions environmental causes.

Warning: This post contains profanity

Sen. Robert Ford pushes to outlaw profanity:

State Senator Robert Ford is hoping to outlaw lewd language and is pushing for a bill that would prohibit profanity.

Under the pre-filed bill, buy cialis cheap profanity could land you in jail for up to 5 years and/or cost you up to $5, generic cialis 000 in fines.

Which words are exactly considered profane is still unclear, but the bill does have a list of qualifications for profanity including words or actions that are lewd, vulgar or indecent in nature.

We spoke to Debra Gammons with the Charleston School of Law about freedom of speech.

She reminds that the First Amendment is not absolute. You cannot say whatever you want whenever you want to.

I have two things to say about this:

  1. The First Amendment IS absolute. Our courts just refuse to treat it that way.
  2. Fuck you, Senator Ford.

There is no doubt, President Obama is a great speaker

But I honestly don’t think yesterday’s inaugural address was a great speech.

Congratulations, Mr. President

Barack Obama is now the nation’s first African-American President.

I sincerely hope his term goes more smoothly than the swearing in did.

The reports of partisanship’s death…

are greatly exaggerated.

Barack Obama’s first term may be less partisan than Bill Clinton’s and George W. Bush’s were (I’m not sure how they could be more partisan), cialis buy order but the fundamental splits in this country are not going to go away any time soon.

Abortion, viagra generic troche guns, immigration, taxes, socialized medicine, stem cells, religion in the public square; issues like these don’t have a middle ground (or, at least, not much of one).

So far, Obama has had the luxury of being all things to all people (although the gays are starting to think maybe he isn’t exactly who they thought he’d be).

But, after tomorrow, President Obama starts making decisions and those decisions are going to piss some people off. What will be interesting to see is how often those decisions piss off the very people who elected him.
