Nearly 25% Of Republicans Still Despise John McCain

The enfeebled Mexican liberal John McCain might be the presumptive nominee of the Republican party, but that didn't stop about 25 percent of the Republican voters in recent primaries from casting their ballots for such worthies as Alan Keyes, Ron Paul, Mike Huckabee, and "Undecided." So how will the candidate who is barely tolerated by most of his voters and enthusiastically loathed by a significant few hope to do in the fall? More »

Alan Keyes Loses Constitution Party Nomination!

In what pundits have described as "the most contentious" nomination battle in the Constitution Party's 16-year history, famous nut Alan Keyes has lost the bid to radio host Chuck Baldwin in a blatant act of white racism. The party held its national convention in Kansas City over the weekend and selected Baldwin over the towering figure of Keyes by a vote of 384-126. Thus ends Alan Keyes' winding path towards the White House in 2008, the highlight of which was this hilarious performance at a Republican debate in December, which we honor in the above clip.

People Finally Noticing That Alan Keyes Changed Parties

After weeks of extensive research, we have at last determined why Alan Keyes won the Constitution Party Straw Poll: because he is a member of this party! That's right, he is no longer a Republican. How long ago did he change parties? Probably about a million years ago, but nobody noticed because this is the story of Alan Keyes' life. He does something vaguely interesting or newsworthy, and several years or months later somebody says "Huh," and goes back to what they were doing. [Conservative Pulse]

BREAKING: Alan Keyes Is President of Constitution Party Straw Poll

Alan Keyes today beat 400,000 ex-presidents, or just himself, in the Constitution Party's nomination straw poll! What is wrong with him? He can't save the Constitution, only Ron Paul can do that. Or is that just racism? We do not know what any of this means as far as Hillary and Barack in Amish country goes. But it absolutely means something. [Constitution Party]

Who Is To Blame For Alan Keyes' Shocking '04 Senate Loss To Obama?

Cast your mind back to the days before Barack Obama was our President. Do you remember that time in 2004 when he ran for the Senate? And how his first opponent dropped out because the guy wanted to see his alien wife having sex in public? And then Alan Keyes threw his hat in the ring, giving the American public the gift of 86 days of unadulterated crazy? Good times! More »

Alan Keyes Can Define My Reality, Alright


Alan Keyes continues to run for the president of something, and he has a new video on his internets! And a philosophizing one it is, indeed. According to Alan: If perception is reality, and reality is a “creature,” then this creature is God, reality becomes perception, and God and Jesus love each other, and Kermit the Frog is sovereign, then the Universe is a social construct made by enraged Muslim wombats.

It's WALNUTS! Time Now

Huckabee, your month of surging is over. Those major newspaper endorsements for John McCain are finally kicking in, according to a just-released American Research Group poll. He’s tied for the lead in New Hampshire and second in Iowa. It’s like the summer and/or fall of 2006 all over again! Enjoy it while it lasts, Walnuts, before Alan Keyes or some other dingus starts “surging” in January. [American Research Group]

Snarf Alan Keyes Snarf Snarf


In my favorite clip of the week, here’s Alan Keyes being a rude little prat, and then an idiot, and then both at the same time during today’s otherwise boring Republican debate. Oh, and Alan — an irate black Kermit the Frog called, and he wants his irate black voice back.

GOP Frontrunners Also Hate White American Christian Evangelicals

Just hours ago, we brought you the charming story of Mitt, Rudy, Walnuts and Fred saying “no thanks, black people” to the Tavis Smiley debate at the “historically black college in Baltimore.” Well guess who else gets no love from the Republican Frontrunners? Poor white people who believe in Jesus! More »

America Wants Alan Keyes For President!

Now that people have actually looked at Fred Thompson and realized he’s not Sam Watterson but is actually a lazy mumbler who marries strippers, the search is on for a candidate who is actually a reincarnated Reagan. And as last night’s atrocious debate proved, none of those geeks will ever be president of anything. More »
