Dear Dianne: Stop Insulting America’s Sixth Graders

by Eileen | 11:30 am, March 18, 2013

And, while you’re at it, go f*** yourself with an extended magazine. You bilious old moose. Oh, Dianne Feinstein, America’s precious little child, she who gets more and more thin skinned with each passing term in the Senate. Dianne epitomizes that breed who go into a field known for being markedly insensitive to feelings and [...]

It’s Been a Weird Day in a Good Way: Two Court Rulings Represent Hope for Privacy

by Eileen | 7:06 pm, March 15, 2013

In one day, two major court decisions have put Executive overreach on the defensive and given civil liberty advocates momentum. In California, a federal judge held that National Security Letters, with their built-in gag orders, are unconstitutional. (Decision, here.) Meanwhile, federal courts also reinstated an ACLU lawsuit challenging the CIA’s ‘Glomar’ response of targeted drone [...]

First Thoughts on the Freshly Dead SB 1226

by Eileen | 5:45 pm, March 15, 2013

At PPC, we are just fascinated by the far left.  It’s a macabre fascination, but still, we never tire for long of watching and discussing proggie behavior. And we do try to understand how the moonbats interpret the world around them and how they construct their arguments.  This is actually a worthy hobby for any [...]

This Could be Promising

by Eileen | 5:00 pm, March 7, 2013

I’ve already tossed up a longer post about what’s so very wrong with GOP dinosaurs getting their panties all twisted about yesterday’s filibuster. But here are two hopeful signs. 1. During the filibuster, RNC Chair Reince Preibus publicly urged all Republican members to go to the Senate floor and “help out” 2. Senate Minority Leader [...]

In Which Eric Holder Takes Care of His Correspondence Whilst Mssrs Graham and McCain Pursue Political Hari-Kari

by Eileen | 4:44 pm, March 7, 2013

And, on that note, may hordes of angry voters wing you to irrelevance and powerlessness: John, Lindsey, you have brought shame on your office and neither of you is fit to serve the Americans – and that is the official editorial position of the Peoples Press Collective. Rand Paul, meanwhile, has a lifetime honorary membership [...]

Evie Hudak Cited a Bad Statistic from a Biased, Fifteen-Year-Old Study. But it Gets Even Worse

by Eileen | 8:56 am, March 7, 2013

Evie Hudak’s ammunition in trying to shame a rape victim was a substantially incorrectly cited ‘fact’ from a study that is itself fifteen years old. Gosh, and to think we right-wing gun nuts are scared of all those powerful researchers and analysts supporting the lefties. The study in question is itself a fine example of [...]

Holder’s First Letter to Paul Precipitates the Best Filibuster Ever

by Eileen | 11:46 pm, March 6, 2013

We are into the 13th hour of a filibuster to demand accountability from Barack Obama on drone killings.  At this moment, I feel better about the state of the Union and the hope for this nation than I have in years.  I adore the concept of the filibuster and I am downright lovin’ this particular [...]

In Which Evie Hudak Likes Victims So Much That She Wants To Make More of Them

by Eileen | 5:44 pm, March 5, 2013

If the Colorado Democrats put their foot in their mouth one more time on gun rights, I am going to recommend mercy killing for the lot of them.  To be clear, we voters are the one who deserve a little mercy. Joe Salazar has largely gotten away with his characterization of women as histrionic little [...]

One Flimsy White House Promise and a Classified Vote Later, And We Have A New CIA Director

by Eileen | 4:32 pm, March 5, 2013

The last public news on John Brennan, Barack Obama’s pick to head the CIA, was weeks ago, when his public confirmation hearing was held. In short, Code Pink made fools of themselves, Brennan lied, committee chair Dianne Feinstein lied and made a fool of herself, and there was posturing all around. In other words, all went according [...]

In Which the Washington Bureau Chief Mocks a Terrible Law Article for Fun

by Eileen | 12:46 am, March 1, 2013

Blogging is easy.  Just tool around the ‘net until you see something that reaches new heights in stupidity – won’t take long – and then spleen about it. Today’s new least favorite human is Jana M. McCreary, authoress of  “Mentally Defective” Language in the Gun Control Act in the newest issue of the Connecticut Law [...]
