"I don’t think that the world will put up with apartheid forever."

South African and Israeli apartheid roots both began in 1948. South Africa, of course ended its apartheid in 1994. Israeli apartheid may not last forever, but it will for the foreseeable future.  Israel will trade security for land as long as Palestinian land is available to steal.  Nothing will motivate Israel to assimilate the Palestinians and it's clear Israel will continue to commit genocide undermine the welfare of 4.5 Palestinians.

Tea bag republicans hate government for the same reasons white slave owners did in 1861

To protect their racism and religious bigotry

Digby and K-Thug wrote the same post today. Different results

Digby says the rates will go up.
According to the hostile analyst, Obamacare will hike rates because of added regulations and mandates. According to the supporter, Obamacare will hike rates because it makes the system more fair and offers better coverage. It's simply different interpretations of the same thing --- you'll notice that both agree that rates will be hiked.
K-Thug, not so much
But to cut to the chase, Roy claims that Obamacare will cause soaring insurance rates, using a comparison that is completely fraudulent — and I say fraudulent, not wrong, because he is indeed enough of a policy wonk here to know that he is pulling a fast one.

Digby as usual, is a wordy, vaguely narcissistic, righteous in a pissy way and frequently misses the forest for the trees.  Case in point, the larger pool of people the less risk and lower the rates.

Guess how many landmines Israel planted in occupied Palestinian land

Would you guess:
A) 1,000
B) 10,000
C) 1,000,000
D) Israel would never do such an uncivil, illegal, inhumane thing.

You'll be shocked! Shocked I tell you.

Wayne Allyn Root is a pschopath


Even China knows about "The Daily Show".

The point is that there remains no room for independent thinking within the conservative movement.


The point is that being a good liberal doesn’t require that you believe, or pretend to believe, lots of things that almost certainly aren’t true; being a good conservative does.

republicans hate Americans, physically harm their constituents, place party over citizens health


It looks as if we’re going to see blue-state residents reaping the benefits of a functional health care system, while red-state residents are denied many of those benefits, for what looks like no better reason than mean-spirited spite — because what’s going on is, indeed, mean-spirited spite. Predictions that Obamacare will be a big political issue are probably right — but not in the way gleeful conservatives imagined.

Your car is German. Your vodka is Russian. Your pizza is Italian. Your kebab is Turkish. Your democracy is Greek. Your coffee is Brazilian. Your movies are American. Your tea is Tamil. Your shirt is Indian. Your oil is Saudi Arabian. Your electronics are Chinese. Your numbers Arabic, your letters Latin. And you complain that your neighbor is an immigrant?


Pull yourself together.

The Pope Just Said Atheists Go To Heaven


Referencing a passage from the Gospel of Mark in his homily, the Pope recounted the story of a priest who told an inquiring Catholic that Jesus redeemed everyone, even atheists, and all he asks in return is that people “do good and do not do evil.” “The Lord has redeemed all of us, all of us, with the Blood of Christ: all of us, not just Catholics. Everyone!” the Pope quoted the priest as saying. “Father, the atheists?,” the skeptical Catholic responded. “Even the atheists. Everyone!” the priest replied, and added: “We must meet one another doing good. ‘But I don’t believe, Father, I am an atheist!’ But do good: we will meet one another there.”
Glenn Beckk is going to be so pissed.
