Right Wing Leftovers

  • The Associated Press has called the Alaska Senate race for Sen. Lisa Murkowski.
  • This New York Times profile reveals Sarah Palin to be remarkably petty, petulant, and uninformed. Not that any of that is a surprise.
  • The Christian Family Coalition is demanding that Republican Gov.-elect Rick Scott divest from QuePasa Corp., on the grounds that the company sells “pornography to Latinos.”
  • Shockingly, none of the conservative Tea Party leaders in Congress want to take a seat on the Appropriation Committee because they might be required to actually take responsibility for their rhetoric.
  • Washington Gov. Chris Gregoire won’t display the nativity scene that was sent out by the Catholic League.
  • Finally, isn’t it amazing how the Religious Right sees no need for accommodating religious beliefs when those beliefs are held by non-Christians?
