QUITTERS NEVER WIN ANYWAY

DSCC Does Not Care For ‘Quitters,’ If They Are Republicans

Monday, July 20th, 2009

Ugh this DSCC ad has about a million problems with it. Number one, only one of these people is a “quitter” in the sense of “throwing a weird hissy fit in front of a flock of honking geese and leaving one’s job for no discernible purpose.” MORE »


ACTORS ARE 'GREAT COMMUNICATORS' YOU SEE

Maybe This ‘Top Gun’ Guy Would Like To Rule New Mexico

Wednesday, May 13th, 2009

Hey, Top Gun was a long time ago.There is a special rule in politics: only Republicans can be actors (Reagan, Schwarzenegger, Thompson). Republican actors are “serious,” whereas the Democrats are just a bunch of hippie slobs who want to make North Korea our 51st state. That is why Val Kilmer cannot run for governor of New Mexico.

Sarah Palin’s Alleged SAT Scores Revealed!

Friday, October 10th, 2008

She's street smart, not book smart!So maybe (probably?) this is a fake, but then again that’s what we thought about the whole “hackers broke into Sarah Palin’s email” rumor. “She couldn’t possibly be that stupid,” we said, and then HA! And actually a 425 verbal sounds about right. [BuzzFeed]

We Found John McCain’s Lost NYT Editorial!

Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008

Put your shirt back on, Senator Craig!You know how the New York Times turned down John McCain’s editorial because it was boring or whatever? We think we found it — it’s running in the Washington Post today, cleverly disguised under the pseudonym “Richard Cohen,” and it’s a full-on Andy Rooney-style rant about the youngsters and their awful tattoos (pictured, left). Today’s horrible tattoos are symptomatic of our decadent moral decline, whereas the horrible tattoos of yesteryear actually stood for something … or so says one angry, drunken geezer. MORE »

Jesse Ventura Threatens/Entices Minnesotans With Possible Senate Run

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

Put that thing away.Once upon a time there was a man named Jessie “The Body” Ventura. He made money wrestling, and then he shaved his head and ran for governor of Minnesota. And he actually won! Then he made some crazy remarks about hunting and other stuff, and eventually he left office, and now he divides his time between “just chillin’” in Minnesota and surfing in Latin American war zones. And now he thinks he might enter Minnesota’s upcoming Senate race, because if Al Franken can do it, anybody can. MORE »


JOHN MCCAIN

Oh That Wacky Cartoon Black-Issues Preacher

Tuesday, May 6th, 2008


OMG did you hear what colored people are up to “in their churches”? Well let’s have one more moment of comic/feigned outrage over what those uppity black people are saying, as the Jeremiah Wright “scandal” will be the closest any of you white people ever get to a black church. Also, uh, this is what the fancy New York magazine Vanity Fair does these days: “Mash ups” of copyrighted video from The Simpsons and the entire two minutes of Reverend Wright’s wacky history of sermons, which so far we’ve yet to hear a single person, you know, make any sort of coherent argument against. Anyway, John McCain is Grandpa Simpson, as we will scientifically prove, after the jump. MORE »
