BREAKING: Kos isn’t funny. [Daily Kos]
Here is a map someone at Daily Kos made, and it’s not even terrifying. OK, it is obviously terrifying in several ways. It is color-coded by votes in each county — blue for Barry, red for Hillary, green for that white guy who was running like 90 years ago. Florida, appropriately, looks like a barfy member. [Daily Kos]
Ahem: “…There were two stars that were highlighted by the comet’s passage, Mirfak, and Algol. Mirfak is the elbow of Perseus’s sword hand. Algol, Medussa’a eye, has long been seen as one of the most malifec and evil stars in the heavens.
“Obama was born with his sun in Leo, and his story exemplifies the quest of the Solar Hero. … MORE »
Today is Tax Day, which means a lot of liberals JUST LIKE YOU get to whine about how they are involuntarily funding the War when what they really hate is paying taxes, just like “ordinary Americans.” Join us in our tour of Daily Kos commenters yodelling like Libertarians about how much, and why, they hate taxes.

The Liberal Internet is exploding with war, famine, and dueling factions of anonymous diarists who type different words about politics. The pro-Clinton diarists at Daily Kos, the famous Netroots blog, launched an Internet Boycott Strike over the weekend, citing the “double standards, the distortions, the hateful, irrational, personal attacks, and the lies about Hillary and her long and distinguished record of public service” at Daily Kos. This is the most Internetty thing to ever happen, and it is appropriately taking place at the scariest website ever. [Daily Kos]
Did you know this new Clinton ad proves algebraically that Hillary Clinton is a racist? Neither did we, until we read the liberal Internet this morning! One of those insightful cinematography experts at Daily Kos noticed that Obama appears to be even blacker than usual in Clinton’s new ad. Is that even possible? Nothing is impossible when BILLARY DOWNHILLARY HITLERY ROD-SHAM CLINTON’s 60-year-old plan to win the Democratic nomination is at stake, the blogs say. MORE »
Hooray, we’re here. There are about 500 people protesting for health care outside, and otherwise the Cashman Center is pretty much abandoned. Also, Wonkette’s filing desk is NEXT TO DAILY KOS AND HUFFINGTON POST AND MAYBE AOL … THIS WON’T STAND. We are going to look for some conservatives to sit by, because they’ll likely have much better jokes about the Democrats. Also, better cocaine. Back later; we are parked illegally and the Secret Service is kind of giving weird looks to our dirty old Beetle.

THOSE CRAZY KOS KIDS: If you are a Michigan voter, and you like the Daily Kos website, you are supposed to vote for Mitt Romney in the GOP Michigan Primary, for some reason. [FoxNews]
We were going to write about it, then I forgot to, then we got distracted with that lady getting killed in Pakistan. Anyway, here it is: Some unfuckwithable, damn-near-empirical evidence that Ron Paul is a racist. The Kos commenters have taken a liking to the term “Paultards” it seems, except they frequently spell it “PaulTards.” Please, someone go correct them. [Daily Kos]
Trusted Internet political bastion Right Wing News held its 6th annual Conservative Blog awards, and your Wonkette is a winner! Well, at least we placed. In the “Most Overrated Blog” category, Wonkette tied with frienemy Redstate and something called Power Line for fourth place. Fourth place, of course, is the new first place, so huzzah for our internets! The traditional first place for overratedness went to Daily Kos, followed by Instapundit and Hot Air. Clearly these awards are definitive, because Hot Air also won the top spot in “Best Blog Overall.” Go team go! [RWN]
