MAJOR ENDORSEMENTS

Ron Paul Embarrasses Phil Gramm At Press Conference

Wednesday, September 10th, 2008

Ron Paul’s very special press conference has ended and, we regret to inform, it featured no “Tournament of Losers”-style death match among the various third-party candidates he invited. He totally copped out and endorsed three third-party candidates: Ralph Nader, Cynthia McKinney, and Chuck Baldwin. He was planning on endorsing Bob Barr, too, but selfish Barr didn’t want to share the blessing with his fellow losers and refused to show up. Ha ha, Bob Barr is in loser-denial. But Paul redeemed his hazy endorsement of these competing hippie agendas by revealing that Phil “Nation of Whiners” Gramm tried to force him into endorsing John McCain. And somehow Paul fended off his heroically persuasive powers! MORE »

Oh Jesus, What Does Ron Paul Want Now?

Tuesday, September 9th, 2008

Look, Ron Paul, YOU WIN, FINE, YOU AND YOUR SUPPORTERS ARE GREAT, now will you please go away for a long time and play with your gold bricks, alone? Of course he won’t, which is why he’s making yet another “special announcement” tomorrow about some useless new thing he’s cookin’ up. He’s almost as bad of an attention whore as Ralph Nader, who Paul has invited to tomorrow’s press conference. Cynthia McKinney too! Bob Barr too! Chuck Baldwin (the Constitutional Party candidate) too! What a depressing quintet of failure. MORE »

Monday, July 14th, 2008

9/11 is a joke!Beloved former congress-lady Cynthia McKinney is the Green Party’s presidential candidate! She’s in it to win!

Green Party Exists, Few People Notice

Monday, January 14th, 2008

Why does she always wear that enormous scrunchie in her hairThe Green Party is alive and we… well, they’re alive anyway and they held their own candidate debate yesterday in San Francisco, moderated by the needs-to-permanently-disappear-from-public-life Cindy Sheehan and either Matt Gonzalez or Aimee Allison (reports on the matter conflict, probably because of the contact high the reporters had).

DENNIS KUCINICH

A Little Competition

Thursday, December 20th, 2007

Oooh, someone's gonna be madCynthia McKinney, the former Congresswoman from Georgia defeated by her own inability to shut up about how “the Jews” wanted her to go down every single time time she loses a race, is running for the Green Party’s presidential nomination. Also, she now lives in California in an effort to escape all the Jews in Georgia. Since there aren’t any Jews in the Green Party, it’ll be interesting to see who she blames when she loses again. Probably the Jews. [CNN]

Fred Who?

Wednesday, May 30th, 2007

Has the whole gang of lousy presidential candidates bummed you out? Bored with Barry? Hate Hillary? Concerned about the nonstop forced sodomy that is sure to ensure should Rudy become president? Are Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich just too… mainstream for you? MORE »

Georgians Apparently Not Proud of Their Best Export Since The B-52’s

Thursday, March 15th, 2007

Georgia is apparently embarrassed that a major Atlanta road is named after former Representative Cynthia McKinney, America’s Most Respected Congresswoman. Some state lawmaker is lobbying to change it, which we’d support only if they changed it to “Professor Griff Road” or “The Tupac Memorial Highway.” MORE »
