In case you missed it over the weekend we hit the one year anniversary of the infamous Obergefell ruling by the Supreme Court. For a whole year now America has been able to gay marry from sea to shining sea. Incredibly this has not led to disaster and/or tyranny. For example Mike Huckabee...

How the mighty have fallen. Tom DeLay to appear on "Dancing with the Stars" Tom DeLay, former House majority leader, has announced he will participate in the next season of "Dancing with the Stars" And before anyone gets on my case for being partisan, I was just as repulsed and chagrined by...

Dagnabbit! I was planning to start this thread several days ago, now it looks like I'm just stealing the idea from Garry Trudeau. (here's the link) I wanted to start a sort of "Sylvia's Clock" thing, but don't have the skills to do it. My own prediction is that he will last another week...
