Hooray, we made a Jonah Goldberg post on The Corner! Time to break out the sparkling cider HMM? Jonah simply does not care for this website’s devastating investigative “reporting” (got an e-mail, determined the source was credible enough and the content was harmless, posted it as gossip — JUST LIKE B. WOODWARD), and says that he DID stand for the President… briefly… barely… shouldn’t even have to stand for that fucking guy… and that the problem was boredom. He went to a black-tie Washington reporters’ banquet but wasn’t expecting to be bored. MORE »

Hey MIKE HUCKABEE, Mittens “Willard” Romney sees your new book’s disparaging excerpts directed at him and raises you a brisk retort through “Eric” the traveling spokesman! “This type of pettiness is beneath Mike Huckabee… If we’re going to move the party forward, we need to offer more than personal recriminations. Unfortunately, in this book, Mike Huckabee is consumed with presumed slights, and he seems more interested in settling scores than in bringing people together.” Tragically, the “Mitt Camp” is in the right here and will score some 2012 Points on this. A windfall for Mittens! Well howdy doo about that. MORE »

Kathleen Parker, a famous conservative person at the National Review who TRAITOROUSLY has some doubts about Sarah Palin, has received tens of thousands of wingnut e-mails from NR readers advising her to be retroactively aborted. And after Parker’s latest syndicated column, which appears on National Review Online today, she will probably get an additional 450 million e-mails telling her to simply die. One of these will probably come from NRO editor Kathryn Jean Lopez, who has posted a catty response to Parker’s column on the Corner in which she promises to kill Parker after the election. So let’s explore Parker’s column about how John McCain picked Sarah Palin just so he could fuck her, and the resulting denouement. MORE »

Joe Killian is an elitist media journalist de politico for a North Carolina newspaper, the Greensboro News-Record. Ooh well isn’t he neat. He was covering a Sarah Palin rally at Elon University yesterday, a radical liberal college, and when he laughed at the college kids fighting with the Palin supporters outside the event, some fat slob kicked him to the ground from behind, haw haw haw.

Here’s the proverbial jaw-smashing uppercut, the personal swipe that grows Barry a set if only for a few fleeting seconds, the killer double-down dropkick sawed-off body smash slam: The Walmart Card. An angry, angry panda, that Barry Hussein is.

Those of you that missed last night’s Democratic debate in Myrtle Beach missed the greatest debate in American history (read: six minutes of it was not entirely awful). They started talking about such boring things as the economy, and how jobs are neat yet poor humans don’t have them, then they started fighting. Here’s the first clip, where Barry defends his crush on Reagan and Hillary gets Rowr-y and Bill becomes president and Spartacus leads a slave rebellion and everyone talks over each other. Also-ran John Edwards was present at the debate last night as well.

In the background you’ll see James Sottile, who is the mayor of some town called Kingston, having a good old fashioned bar fight with a lady. Two (2) drinks are thrown. Enjoy!

Hank Johnson may have won more “votes”, but Cynthia McKinney knows how to get more press, because if you get into an altercation with the media, you can pretty much guarantee that they’re going to report on it. Take notes, Mr. Johnson, take notes. MORE »

RNC chair Ken Mehlman may be one of the most powerful men in politics. But just like a regular guy, he likes to dance and drink. And he gets into arguments at the dry cleaners — which he did yesterday morning.

You can check out the full story — it all feels very “Curb Your Enthusiasm” — after the jump.

We linked to the slideshow yesterday, but here’s the Czech Health Minister Smackdown video — subtitled, so you can pretend you’re watching an early Milos Forman film instead of two pasty government officials having a slapfight. MORE »
