Applesauce
Pat Cunningham offers an unabashedly liberal perspective on national politics. A note of caution: The language gets a litttle salty on some of the sites to which this blog links. So, don’t say you weren’t warned. By the way, this blog’s name is inspired by the Will Rogers quote, “All politics is applesauce.”

 Brian Kilmeade (above), one of the morning hosts on Fox News Channel, says Swedes “have a pure society” because they tend not to marry people of other nationalities.

 We Americans, on the other hand, “we keep marrying other species and other ethnics and other …”

 Read about it HERE – and ask yourself why they’re paying big bucks to such a bonehead.

 UPDATE: Speaking of Fox News claptrap, Sean Hannity SAYS Obama “never got asked tough questions about his radical friends and associates.”

 Remind me to never visit his part of Iowa. I don’t want to be around people who would elect somebody like him.

 UPDATE: King EXPLAINS HIMSELF, sort of.

Speaking of Palin, here’s an interesting chart

 Golly bum! I thought the only people dissin’ our Sarah was  them durned libruls and them New Yorky media types.

 But gosh! It says HERE that even some of our God-fearin’, taxpayin’, hard-workin’, patriotic, heterosexual conservatives have been second-guessin’ her, too.

 Don’t you just hate it when fuzzy gray lines suddenly mess up your black-and-white view of how the world works?

 UPDATE: Wow! Even Fox News contributor Liz Trotta says Sarah is “inarticulate” and “undereducated”:
