DO YOU FEEL SAFER?

Now You Can Bring Even More Guns To Obama’s Health Care Discussions

Monday, August 17th, 2009

That guy who brought one measly handgun (on his thigh!) to Obama’s rally in New Hampshire last week? He was a pussy. This fellow this morning brought a pistol and an AR-15 semi-automatic assault rifle to Obama’s town hall in Arizona this morning. He “was walking around the pro-health care reform rally at 3rd and Washington streets.” 100% legal, times a million, to boot. Next week some slob will bring a Panzer tank to one of these things, “just in case” he has to protect his rights. [Arizona Republic via Gawker]


AMERICA'S LITERARY MASTERS

Meghan McCain Going Nuts Because Somebody Somewhere On the Internet Wants To Kill Himself

Monday, July 27th, 2009

Heaven knows I'm miserable now!
Much like the earlier generations of unemployed bloggers, Meghan McCain is just so deep in the Internet right now that she’s going double insane. Behold her nervous, illiterate twitters about somebody she doesn’t know who may or may not exist, on the Internet, and perhaps at minimum exists on the other side of the country, typing some sadsack stuff about wanting to die. Teen-agers are hyper-emotional, Meghan, sort of like you, except you haven’t been a teen-ager since your dad almost joined John Kerry’s presidential ticket. MORE »


HE DEFUSES TENSION WITH HUMOR

Thursday, May 14th, 2009

Congratulations, humiliated grad!OBAMA BEGINS COMMENCEMENT ADDRESS TOUR 2009: First stop, Arizona State, where his lack of a “body of work” prevented his receiving an honorary degree: “I have to tell you, I really thought it was much ado about nothing, but I think we all learned an important lesson. I learned to never again pick another team over the Sun Devils in my NCAA bracket. It won’t happen again. And President Crow and the Board of Regents will soon learn all about being audited by the IRS.” We cannot WAIT for the abortion jokes when he gets to Notre Dame. [Washington Post]


ROAD TO RECOVERY

Arizona GOP Director Arrested At Work For Driving Very Fast

Thursday, May 7th, 2009

Ladies ladies ladies...Look at this guy, in the photo! WHAT DOES HE DO FOR A LIVING. Does he bowl for a living? Was he an extra in the 1963 part of Goodfellas? Maybe. His name is Brett Mecum and he sells hot cum on the Internet. No, just kidding. Just kidding about his last name. He’s really the executive director of the Arizona Republican Party, and he was arrested in his office yesterday for driving his car super fast. MORE »


HOUSE POOR

Obama Will Pay Your Mortgage, Losers!

Wednesday, February 18th, 2009

stucco apocalypse.The catastrophic news of the day is much like the catastrophic news of the past 18 months or so: OH JESUS, HOUSES, WHAT TO DO? Since the mid 1970s, the answer for many Chicago people has been “Move to some gruesome stucco tract house in a brand-new subdivision about an hour from downtown Phoenix.” So that’s what Barack Obama is doing today: Moving to Phoenix!

AMERICAN ECONOMY FIXED

Cable Companies Pay YOU To Watch Porn

Thursday, February 5th, 2009

Wardrobe malfunction!Finally, a stimulus bill we can believe in: Cable-teevee company Comcast will pay TEN DOLLARS to each Tucson subscriber who maybe saw a few seconds of sexytime hardcore XXX pr0nography just when something important was happening in the Super Bowl game. If you saw some terrible naked man-lady fuckin’ when you expected to see good old-fashioned obese helmeted men slapping each others’ asses before actually killing each other, for America, Comcast says “sorry” and $10 will soon be in the mail, maybe.

WHY WE MUST ALL KEEP OUR RABBIT EARS

Arizona Porn Attack!

Monday, February 2nd, 2009

Run childrens the porn is COMING FOR YOUOh noes certain homes in the Tucson area saw 30 seconds of pornography instead of the Super Bowl as the game reached its exciting conclusion last night! With only three minutes left in play, viewers were shocked to see not football but instead a lady unzipping some guy’s pants, and then “he did his little dance with everything hanging out,” said one stunned resident. It looks like an adult cable channel crossed with the NBC feed into certain analog TV sets. This is a strong argument against converting to digital cable. Why does Joe the Plumber want to keep hard-working Americans from viewing occasional free porn? [Arizona Daily Star]


PERSONNEL DEPT

NAPOLITANO TO RUN HOMELAND SECURITY: Barack Obama has asked the Arizona governor Janet Napolitano to run the useless, bloated Department of Homeland Security. She was frequently mentioned on Obama’s short list of possible vice presidents, but presumably that would have been just too many vowels on the ticket, so she gets this instead: figuring out how to keep an influx of Canadian terror-squads from invading Minnesota.

MAVERICK OUTGUNNED

Guess Who’s Advertising In Arizona?

Friday, October 31st, 2008

Oh noes!Pampered, carpetbagging playboy John McCain’s “home” state of Arizona has gone dangerously pink in the last few days, and the Obama campaign is so awash in cash that they decided enh, what the hell, why not throw up some ads on the teevees in John McCain’s seventeen Phoenix mansion condos. So Obama will be airing some POSITIVE commercials there, to be classy. [First Read]


RAISING ARIZONA

McCain Tied With Obama … In Arizona!

Wednesday, October 29th, 2008

Ha ha ha ha haWe checked in on Arizona last week and found “favorite (carpetbagger) son” John McCain was not exactly killing in his alleged home state. In fact, his double-digit lead was down to about a half-dozen points, and we gleefully imagined a scenario in which Walnuts lost Arizona. It would be fantastically humiliating for McCain and Republicans everywhere. And now, it is very close to being reality! MORE »


ELITIST TO THE END

McCain Won’t Address Supporters Nov. 4, Plans To Give Statement To ‘Small Group of Reporters’

Thursday, October 23rd, 2008

Closing down the Loser's Club.John McCain won’t speak at his “Victory Party” on Election Night, the AP just reported. Instead, he’ll “deliver postelection remarks to a small group of reporters and guests on the hotel’s lawn.” Really? This is what your campaign announces 10 days before the election? That you’re such a furious loser that you’ve decided, in advance, to not address your supporters at your Election Night party? MORE »
