Angry Bobby Jindal Is Your New Patton, Will Lead A Mighty Army Into Washington D.C.
This weekend was Ralph Reed’s “Faith and Freedom Coalition” pious ragefest, which we assume, as news trickles out, will be an almost endless source of material. Up first: walking talking permanent 5-o’clock shadow Bobby Jindal. Bobby is really working hard at going full right wing nutbar. Whether it is burnishing his Christian credentials to the […]
Bobby Jindal Will Do Almost Anything To Break Up With Common Core
Writing about Common Core-related freakouts is becoming our bread and butter. Whether it’s Oklahoma homeschool moms freaking out about how the standards will be rammed down their throat even though standards don’t apply to homeschooled kids or Florida legislators being worried Common Core will make their kids gay, we can reliably be sure that if […]
GOP Candidates For President In 2016 Already Getting A Jump On Looking Like Ignorant Mullet-Heads
Maybe the Republican National Committee should consider sending all its party’s presidential candidates on a round-the-world cruise for the next two years so they can’t spend that time saying stupid shit on television and turning off the American public. Take Marco Rubio. Over the weekend he senator from the great insane state of Florida gave […]
Academic Freedom To Teach Bible As Science Upheld In Lucky Louisiana
Nice try, but no cigar, lovers of science in the Pelican State. For the fourth time since the Doublespeaky “Louisiana Science Education Act” (LSEA) was passed in 2008, an attempt to repeal the law has been shot down, by a 3-1 vote in the Senate Education Committee. This means that teachers in the Great State […]

Vance McAllister (R-Tonsil Hockey), and his sorry-not-sorry apology to his constituents, his wife, his kids, God, social decency, Saints fans, the endangered Louisiana wetlands and who knows who else over his […]
Louisiana Wants To Create Database Of All The Abortions It Won’t Let You Have For Your Safety
If it’s a day that ends in “y,” (and it is, we checked the Google), then it’s a safe bet that someone somewhere is trying to shove their limited-government legislation right up your vagina to protect you from yourself. For “life” and “freedom” and “babies” and “safety” and “stuff.” This is not news; in fact, […]
Your Wonkette Field Guide To America’s New Sweetheart, Cathy McMorris Rodgers
So how about that State of the Union response, huh? No, not Mike Lee, though we’re sure that was adorable. Nope, not Rand Paul. We couldn’t even find his speech. The lady one. No, not the Spanglish-speaking one. The OTHER lady. The one that spoke American but gave the same speech. Cathy John Jacob Jingleheimer […]
Nation Facing Critical Diaper-Pun Shortage As David Vitter Announces Run For Louisiana Luvs, Er, Guv
In a move immediately deemed “good for comedy,” Sen. David Vitter announced today that he will run for governor of Louisiana in 2015. Since Bobby Jindal is term-limited, Vitter will only have to run against less well-known Republicans in the primaries, and already has a pantsload of money to begin campaigning with — even before […]
Duck Dynasty Is The New ‘White Santa’ And Now There Is So Much Derp
We know everyone is shocked — SHOCKED — that a conservative christian reality teevee star thinks that gays are super-icky because who would want buttsechs in the bumbum when the sweet sweet vajayjay is RIGHT THERE for the taking?!? In fact, we know many women who completely agree that the vajayjay is, indeed, rather awesome. […]
Bobby Jindal Explains: Racism Is Stupid Because Aren’t We All Christians Anyway?
Paleoconservative Peter Pan Bobby Jindal has written a thing about how racism is bad. Maybe you read it, because it was the top thing on Politico this morning, goddamn it, August, you suck. Probably some people read it because they’re like “Heck yes Bobby Jindal, racism IS bad and you are an inspiration to us […]

Bobby Jindal Here To Help Grandma Die Sad Painful Death, For Real, Hooray!
Well, at least it is not a post about guns, which is the only thing we can say about it without our head spinning around until it tears itself from our slender neck. News comes that by the end of the month, Louisiana will “save” all of $3 million by discontinuing hospice care for its […]
Bobby Jindal Will Be Louisiana’s Reverse Robin Hood
You know what’s hard? Income taxes. How do we make them fair? Should there be refundable credits? Why do you get a credit for having a kid but not for, say, TOTALLY HOUSING a bottle of Johnny Black on your yacht? Progressive taxation “punishes success” by charging a higher rate to people who make more […]
