The American people have once again graciously conceded to allow their hard-working public servants in Congress a well-deserved summer break, this year extending from August 6 to September 3 (Sept 6 for the Senate.) What, after eight months of nose-to-the-grindstone legislating and rigorous protection of the Constitution, the Fighting 110th deserves a good four-five weeks […]

Slate is no tool of the “vast right wing conspiracy,” for sure (and neither is its parent company the Washington Post), so it is pretty amazing to see a Slate contributor take his fellow liberal journalists to task in so stark a manner. But, for once, Slate is dead right on this one, folks. The […]
