Turnabout is fair play:

And they call us the religious nutjobs
I’ve not run up against this problem personally, but we’ve all seen the regressives’ attempts to hijack the holidays:
Supposedly progressives are super-informed and Love Science. Indeed, that’s the main “political” argument they’re actually arguing for.
So why is it so many of them seem to need these bluffer’s guides to explain to them why they believe the things they believe?
It doesn’t really make sense, does it? They’re anxious because they’re going to a Thanksgiving dinner where they won’t have an Automatic Affirmation Clap Circle applauding their poses and posturings, but instead might be asked things like “Where are you getting that claim from?”

Wonderful:
New York Times Publishes Darren Wilson’s Home Address
They’re not even pretending to be impartial anymore. It’s like they’re trying to touch off a war or something. They should be careful what they wish for…they might get it.

Why the country is spinning apart
Democrats have rigged the system into an unsustainable model that can only rip itself apart:
Sultan Knish: Amnesty for Unamerica
Obama’s excuse for his illegal amnesty will be that the immigration system is “broken” forcing him to act. But when Obama says that the system is broken, he means that some parts of it still work and so he intends to break immigration all the way through to benefit his own corrupt political allies.
That will hurt his own voters the most, but the Democratic Party has a notoriously masochistic relationship with its voting base. It beats them up and then it gaslights them by hugging them and telling them that it was really the mean Republicans who punched them in the face.
[…]
Immigration requires opportunity. We still have it, but less of it than we used to. Our immigration system is not based on opportunity. It’s based on a migratory flow of Democratic Party voters.
What broke the system was making it as open as possible to those who had the least to offer while closing it tightly to those who had the most to offer. Now Obama wants to import illegal aliens while deporting American jobs. He wants to trade American jobs to illegal aliens for Democratic votes.
