Support Mother Jones this Giving Tuesday

Did you know Giving Tuesday got started, back in 2012, explicitly to fight against the commercial corruption of Thanksgiving with its Black Friday and Cyber Monday? That’s awesome! And what better way to mark the day than with a Giving Tuesday donation to Mother Jones that will help fight corruption of all sorts, day in and day out. Our finances are rough right now and we could really use a Giving Tuesday boost. Please help us make the most of this heightened day of giving if you can right now.

THE WIDENING GYRE….Over at MojoBlog, David Corn reports on the latest crop of last ditch attacks being waged by loony right groups against Barack Obama. The nickel version:

Mohamed Atta’s Driver License….Obama is a Socialist….Obama Is a Secret Muslim Plotting With an Evil Billionaire….Obama Is Fronting for Islamic Jihadists….

I guess things really are different this year. This stuff just sounds pathetic, not scary. Details here if you want to read up on the latest.
