An open-carry gun rally in Maine worried African-American and other residents who saw the prominently-featured Confederate flags waving above anti-Obama signs. But remember: Republicans “never” use President Obama’s race to provoke anger. (Portland Daily Sun)
Democrats will keep the Senate in session overnight to force Republicans to actually filibuster financial regulatory reform after they voted for the third time in as many days to prevent bringing the bill to the floor. But remember: Republicans “never” obstruct legislation for political purposes. (The Hill)
Since they can’t actually shoot President Obama, one Pennsylvania conservative group plans to fire bullets into Obama Care and other presidential policy initiatives. But remember: Republicans “never” encourage violent acts (Think Progress)
The Arizona agency which trains law enforcement officers wants assistance from the federal government for training police officers to enforce the state’s new, and probably unconstitutional, immigration law. But remember: Republicans “never” complain about federal expansion into “states’ rights” issues. (USA Today)

Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki has been running a secret torture prison in Baghdad without the knowledge of his own Human Rights Ministry. Good thing we got rid of that Saddam guy! (LA Times)
Armed wingnuts will be gathering in a Virginia national park, which they can only do because of President Obama and the federal government, to protest President Obama and the federal government. (WaPo)

The rest of the world does not hate America as much now as they did when George W. Bush was president. Obviously this means that President Obama is surrendering to Europe and their Freedom Toast. (BBC)
Chairman of the Joint Chief Adm. Mike Mullen says we should definitely not attack Iran, even if they might be developing nuclear weapons. Why does this lowly admiral hate war hero maverick John McCain so much? (Wired)
Our Vice President Joe Biden will be on “The View” this Thursday. What hilarious gaffe will he make to offend Elisabeth Hasselbeck and all of America’s women, at once? (CNN)

Even though he already told everyone he wouldn’t, Rep. Mark Kirk (R-IL) will run for Senate to replace America’s Senator™ Roland Burris, whose seat was once held by some other black guy with a funny name. We forget who, though. (CNN Political Ticker)
Buy a truck from Kansas City car dealer Mark Muller, and he will give you a free AK-47 for, ummm, hunting? Self-defense? Obama’s a Muslin? Gotta be one of those… (Telegraph)
Hey, here’s something else that George W. Bush fucked up (no pun intended): teen STD infection and pregancy rates rose under the abstinence-only sex education policies of the Bush years because, surprise!, kids are having sex anyway. Somehow, this will be all Bill Clinton’s fault. (Guardian)
Your President Obama is planning a trip to Indonesia, one of his several alleged countries-of-birth. (Ben Smith)
And speaking of the birthers, Rep. Mike Castle (R-DE), who is thinking of running for Joe Biden’s old Senate seat, pissed off a crowd of Republicans for having the audacity to say that Barack Obama is American, even though he doesn’t carry his birth certificate around in a plastic baggie like the crazy lady in this video.
