BREAKING: HOT DISH SARAH PALIN GIVES BIRTH, KID HAS WEIRD NAME

Ding ding ding, the bun's out of the oven! "America's Hottest Governor" and the one and only GILF of Alaska, Sarah Palin, has delivered her fifth child and second son! Here is the statement from the Governor's office about their new boy, which they have awkwardly named Trig Paxson Van Palin. "Trig is beautiful and already adored by us. We knew through early testing he would face special challenges, and we feel privileged that God would entrust us with this gift and allow us unspeakable joy as he entered our lives. We have faith that every baby is created for good purpose and has potential to make this world a better place. We are truly blessed." Congrats to Sarah, her husband, and Trigger Von Bill Paxton Palin. Enjoy making No. 6, Mr. Palin! [Alaska Report]

Mike Gravel's Latest Opus


Here is former Democratic candidate and current Libertarian party candidate for president, ex-Sen. Mike Gravel, in his latest fun video. He is speaking the words of the Beatles' "Helter Skelter," which has been remixed into a Modern version, "Electro Skeletor." Other famous remixes of "Helter Skelter" include the Manson family. [YouTube]

PRESIDENT MIKE GRAVEL JOINS LIBERTARIAN PARTY: Former Alaska Sen. Mike Gravel, who we still thought was running for the Democratic nomination for president, has joined the Libertarian Party and may run for president that way, too. Gravel is famous for throwing rocks, yelling at other candidates, and this fantastic rapping video he made. Gravel's exit helps clear the way for a unified Democratic party under Barack Obama, so maybe that Hillary Clinton galoot should get her act together and do the same. [The Trail]

Ted Stevens Will Be Permanent President Of Alaska

Alaska Senator Ted Stevens is as ancient and snowy white as the craggy glaciers his people farm in the Land of the Midnight Sun. And despite the fact that he is 1,000 years old and knows nothing about the Internet and is under investigation for graft, he has boldly decided to run for re-election, again. More »

Ted Stevens Wins Children's Arts and Crafts Contest

Sen. Ted Stevens of Alaska is the president of cereal! This weekend, he participated in Anchorage’s “third-annual Crafters Smackdown,” where raging hobos and salmon construct beautiful “Alaska cereal boxes” as bloodsport. Given the contest’s lax ethics rules, it is no surprise that the most corrupt senator in world history won. More »

Traumatized Writer's Hell-Cruise With Ralph Nader

One brave man had the courage to write in the New York Times this weekend about some of the darkest, most painful days of his life. Days that would make a few waterboardings or even the Full Lieberman seem like child’s play. He was literally cast out upon the waters, trapped on a vessel with only miles of icy Alaskan sea all around, with no respite from the unending torment of Ralph Nader, Richard Dreyfuss, and Katrina vanden Heuvel on what one fellow captive described as “an S.D.S. reunion on the Love Boat.” More »

It's Official: GILF Sarah Palin Is America's Hottest Governor!

Way back in December 2006, we awarded Alaska’s Sarah Palin the coveted Wonkette title of “America’s Hottest Governor.” Now it’s a year later and Alaska Magazine agrees that Governor Palin is truly our nation’s hottest gubernatorial offering. If you’re in Alaska anytime soon, grab a copy and tell us what the story’s about! [Alaska Magazine]

Hottie Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin has reportedly posed for a Vogue spread for their February issue (which will be available on newsstands in late January). In completely unrelated news, CVS is stocking up for an expected run on moisturizing lotion in January. Because of the cold, dry weather. Obviously. [Anchorage Daily News]

Alaskan GOP Grapple Over GILF, Mean Old Man

What with the neverending tales of criminality, graft, and senility, prominent Republicans are beginning to put some distance between Ted Stevens and themselves. No, wait, just kidding! Obviously. He’s just the subject of an FBI probe and eleventy billion other investigations, it’s not like he paid some guy to blow him or anything. All of his corrupt old buddies are throwing cash at him and still letting him help run the country. More »

Ben Stevens' New Dream Job

Now that Ted Stevens’ son Ben is no longer a corrupt Alaskan state Senator, he needs to find some way to feed the kids he may or may not have. Thankfully, father Ted pulled some strings and got his wayward son a gig with the transportation company Lynden, who, coincidentally, have received $300 million in federal contracts over the last six years, thanks to Ted being a ranking member of the Senate Defense Appropriations committee. Now, how about this job? Cushy desk gig, no doubt? More »

Ha Ha, Ted Stevens Is So Screwed

Nobody could find Ted Stevens at the Capitol today because he kept disappearing whenever they caught a glimpse of him, but CNN’s Dana Bash chased him down a stairwell or something and this is the hilarious transcript of the videotaped interview, which we’ll try to find for you later. Or just watch CNN; they’ll repeat it soon. More »

Ted Stevens' Seussian House Raided by FBI, IRS

As the longest-serving Republican Senator ever, Ted Stevens has obviously committed enough crime to make Dutch Schultz blush. He’s less ostentatious than your Duke Cunninghams and less perverted than all those under-70 whippersnappers who keep fucking whores and little boys, though, so we never thought we’d see him go down in our lifetime. Which means it’s a pleasant surprise to see the FBI and IRS raiding his huge ski resort home. More »
