Did You Know *Other* Republican Governors Are Creepy Weirdos, Like Mark Sanford?
Wednesday, June 24th, 2009
Anybody who says the Associated Press is not the most important wire service with “AP” as its initials just plain hates good journalism. Following up on yesterday’s scorcher about how there were five (5) other governors who did something vaguely weird once, over the course of American state history, today AP headquarters in New York offers up what just might be the most cogent yet blistering assessment of the Mark Sanford “Argentine Firecracker” scandal thus far: Sanford is a Republican governor doing lame, creepy things … just like all those other Republican governors trying to make a name for themselves in the GOP’s final days.

As the GOP accelerates its transition to America’s own
Having successfully completed a hilarious stack of FAIL on Tax Day, the Teabagging Cultists will next flap their testicles against the mouth of 9/11, our nation’s most holy day of remembrance. Just six months or so from right now, the fantastic teabagging momentum will strike again, as America sheds its tears over the anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks on the places wingnuts and teabaggers hate most: Washington DC and New York City.
Wonkette operative/Capitol Spy “Valkyrie” sends this chilling report: “Just saw Capitol Hill police officers surrounding a guy and checking inside his metal basket cart. As I passed by, I looked inside, and the cart was filled with confiscated tea bags in little evidence bags, and the police officers were taking their pick. Fat cats.” Thanks, teabaggers, for providing our nation’s Capitol Cops with a selection of tasty herbal teas!
THE SADDEST LIL’ TEA PARTY PROTEST: “Joanne Millard, 68, a resident at Riverfront Apartments, slipped on a rock and then fell into the water while dumping tea leaves from a plastic bag into the river to protest the recent trillions of dollars in government spending.” Thanks to tipster “Mike W.” for this story that kind of makes us want to cry.

Wonkette operative “Laura” sends this cell-phone shot from the High Desert stucco ghetto of Victorville, California. This is one of the lamest fucking places in America, the fat diabetic heart of the housing collapse, basically everyone is on the dole — military pension, social security, disability, etc. — so of course it’s hard-core wingnut land. This is the kind of place where you see new Ron Paul 2008 posters stapled up on the phone poles to replace the ones that blew away. The signs these teabaggers are waving say “HONK IF YOU LOVE COCK.”
