Wonkette

EPIC FAILZ: Some DNC factotum just sent Wonkette a link to “Howard Dean’s refutation of the NYT assertions about the Democratic Convention shaping up to be a ‘disaster.’” The link didn’t work. ONE HOUR LATER: Now it works!

Guess what, Democratic National Committee kids working through the hot summer months while everybody else is pretty much not thinking at all about the election?

The DNC says you can sorta dress down for summer — but not like a complete whore or a bum! Read the new Dress Code and feel the wind beneath your … uh, skirt. MORE »

So that’s John McCain on the left, you knew that, but who is that “elderly American woman” wearing the sunglasses indoors while posing for a photo? That’s Harriet Christian, the famous Hillary Clinton diehard who threw a fit at the DNC Rules and Bylaws Committee over its perceived bias towards the Democrats’ “inadequate black male” of a nominee, which landed her a Fox News appearance during which she said black people don’t even know why they voted for Obama. And now she will protest-vote for John McCain, who hosted a party for bitter Hilltards like Christian at his campaign headquarters over the weekend. They may look like a happy pair now, but soon enough she’ll be making wisecracks about his withering hair, and he’ll respond with a wisecrack of his own. [Via Kevin K. at Rumproast]

• OBAMA LETS DNC MOVE IN WITH HIM: It never ends with this guy. First he steals all of Hillary’s Florida and Michigan delegates, from women, and now he is stealing the entire DNC. According to Politico’s Ben Smith, “In a major shakeup at the Democratic National Committee — and a departure from tradition — large parts of the committee’s operations are relocating to Chicago to be fully integrated with the Obama campaign.” You’re letting the DNC move in with you, Barry? Well when it demands that you marry it, to make it “an honest DNC,” don’t say we didn’t warn you. [Ben Smith]

Here is nutball Harriet Christian, the “older white woman” and New Yorker famous for ranting on the Internet about how the DNC is giving its nomination to an “inadequate black man.” She tells Fox News icon Neil Cavuto that Obama’s victory is illegitimate because “99% of the blacks don’t even know why they’re voting for him.” Touché!

How much fun was had in Washington on Saturday? This much. Two more horrific examples of why John McCain will be president, after the jump. MORE »

Brave Wonkette videographer Liz Glover risked her life Saturday to film America’s Best outside the DNC Rules and Bylaws Committee, which has been already well documented on the Internet. On Liz’s travels, however, she sees some *Obama-supporting* Floridians who traveled to D.C. to make their vote count, a nut from effete San Francisco, a Hillary jack-in-the-box that’s on sale for 20 DOLLARS, a horse which she vaguely molests, and, of course, the necessary standard-bearers for any summit of nutjobs: LaRouchies. When asked to describe the overall experience, Liz writes, “I asked some of the protesters how much the Clintons were paying them to be there. Almost got beat up. Clinton supporters are very serious.” Liz clearly does not value Enfranchisement.

• “The Democrats are throwing the election away. And for what? An inadequate black male?”

“WASHINGTON (AP) - Democratic party officials said a committee agreed Saturday on a compromise to seat Michigan and Florida delegates with half-votes after Barack Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton failed to get enough support to force their positions through.”

Fair, great, it’s over, HOORAY! But… MORE »

Here’s a picture from our Wonkette “Saturday” operative. It is the worst car in the world, and America should be ashamed of it. It’s “rallying” around the DNC Rules and Bylaws Committee at some Marriott in northwest Washington D.C., along with various comical Hilltards and tragically counter-protesting Obamatards. Somehow the only result of the meeting will be the War in Iran. But are they making any progress? Perchance! MORE »
