Joe Biden Had Salty Words For Press In 2004

Friday, October 31st, 2008

Just four short years ago, it was the Democrats who were getting called out in the press for constantly changing strategies and bickering publicly about petty nonsense. And four years ago, Joe Biden took a brave stand and asked reporters the very important question, “Who gives a shit?” (Those are the actual words out of his mouth.) Why will he not now take a stand for his great friend John McCain, who is boldly running his campaign straight out of the Kerry ‘04 playbook? [YouTube]

SUPREME COURT

Arlen Specter: Campaign Criminal

Thursday, January 3rd, 2008

So the FEC investigated Arlen Specter and it turns out he broke every single campaign finance rule. When he ran for re-election in 2004, Specter took a million dollars from people who had already maxed out, failed to report hundreds of thousands of dollars from PACs, and missed a reporting deadline before the primary.

GEORGE W. BUSH

Meet the New Miss Teen South Carolina

Monday, September 24th, 2007


So we were looking for this picture, again, and decided to google “George Bush Confused” and sure enough there’s like 2 million search results so we will pretty much click any YouTube link for anything and now we have this weird, kind of embarrassing moment from the 2004 campaign, maybe?
