Crowder was fired by Fox News because he said that Hannity lets liberals bully him on his program.

He clarified this statement after being fired by saying that Hannity is just too nice of a guy and feels like he has to play by the rules when he interviews people.

Source? This is just unreal.

The Republican establishment:
1) Supply-siders
2) Neocons
3) Bible thumpers
4) Racists (aka "not-racists")

The Republican base:
1) Bible thumpers
2) Racists
3) Supply-siders
4) Neocons

That's literally the best summary of Republican voters I've ever seen, it should literally be included in 3rd week of Modern American Politics 101. If I made it a little more PC I'd say it's mostly Neocons, Religious Right and Supply-Siders.

It's just like any mainstream newspaper or magazine. Most of the content is bullshit or routine stories, and often enough a good journalist is attached and puts out something really good.

Umm,

The slogan of TMZ is Celebrity Gossip, Entertainment News, etc...

TMZ is lovely tabloid. Sure, they might have a few things but it's pretty obvious their primary focus is celebrity gossip.

I've actually heard that Big Tobacco is waiting in the wings to fill the legal-marijuana void as soon as this becomes nationally feasible. Which would suck. I'm hoping we end up with something more like the craft-beer scene.

No,

Marijuana is much easier to produce than Tobacco and there are companies already producing marijuana that have experience and might even have a patent or two.

No he doesn't. No one I know cites him for anything and I travel in highly liberal circles. When people say "liberals do the same thing!" and cite people like Maddow, Obermann and, poo poo, I don't know...Ed Shcultz or Stephanie Miller as examples, the differences becomes palpable because nobody I can think of - none of my hard left leaning friends - ever come up to me and ask me if I watched Maher or FW:FW:FW: links from Buzzfeed to me or anything like that. We don't get our news and our marching orders from these sources or let it dictate how we think.

The right does this and it's demonstrable and provable. I think that's the difference and what I think people are referring to when they say "Bill Maher is small potatoes".

Let's talk for 5 pages about Micheal Moore now and how he's just like Dinesh D'Souza

You're going to have Micheal Moore, Obermann referenced much more than Maher but he's still a dick. I can't stand Micheal Moore, the way he presents anything is just mind grating.

The person I used to hear referenced as a left-wing Limbaugh most often apart from Moore was Al Franken, but he's a Senator now which has kind of tempered his shock-jock status.

Yea, he's not so much a political-pundit any longer but even when he was he never came across so grating, rude or disrespectful like Maher.

Ok,

I sort of get the flak that Maher's getting for his stance on Islam but I'm not so sure regarding Harris.

Harris's position - from what I understand - is there's a double-standard when it comes to Christianity and Islam in the United States and it's a big problem when a large portion of your religious followers feels that it's acceptable to kill non-believers, violence against women, etc...

Why the Harris hate?

Republicans have made Texas the most job producing state in the history of the nation.

At the cost of what exactly? A State that has very lax rules regarding employee rights and very little corporate oversight?

I spent a few minutes trying to find this but I know a few years back Perry in an ad called out California and told their businesses to come to Texas. I think the LA Times had a enormous article regarding excruciatingly lax laws for employers, pollution, etc

Brownbeck fought like hell to keep his seat because his policies have done so much damage to the state. Lifelong Republicans switch sides just to get out before their state has been ruined.
