DICK CHENEY

Black Tuesday to Ensure Third Bush Term

Tuesday, February 27th, 2007

Escape_from_New_York_menu.gifThe stock market withered and died today after news of Dick Cheney’s survival at the hands of a suicide bomber. This prompts Hotline to ask:

What happens to the presidential race if there’s a recession?

The answer is complicated.

Wonkette Party Crash: MSNBC/NJ At the Watergate

Friday, September 8th, 2006

_sk52700.jpgThe National Journal Group throws a mean party, so when they invited us to celebrate their blessed gay marriage to MSNBC (oh, we only give it ’til November — you know how those types are), we put on a tie and everything and cabbed it to the Watergate. The cabbie correctly pegged us as a “blogger,” picked up two well-dressed Republican-looking additional fares at a Georgetown hotel, and told them we were “a liberal Democratic tree-lover vegetarian” as they uncomfortably and politely laughed and silently pleaded to make it to Sequoia before we said something leftist.

Oh, right, the party! Learn all about it, after the jump.

Some of Joe Biden’s Favorite Donut Vendors are Indian

Thursday, July 6th, 2006

The National Journal’s Hotline has posted a video of Joe Biden at his Bidenest, spreading good cheer to all the delightfully-spotted foreheads in his neighborhood:

In thanking a young Indian-American man for the support of his Indian-American group, Sen. Biden touts how Indians are the fastest growing immigrant group in Delaware and says, “You CANNOT go into a 7-11 or a Dunkin Donuts without an Indian accent.”

And it’s not on the video, but we imagine that Joe went on to claim, “I also love that one god of yours, the one with all the arms… the elephant one? What’s his name? Baba Ganoush?” And his sure-to-be successful campaign for the presidency marches onward to the strains of a thousand sitars all playing in unison. MORE »

Anderson Cooper: Top With Republicans

Thursday, March 23rd, 2006

The Hotline Poll is All-Republican (and All-American, dammit) this month, and though the split between America’s Unelectable Mayor (seriously, Washington, he did stuff before 2001, look into it) and MAVERICK SENATOR JOHN MCCAIN is what’ll dominate the coverage (such as it is), we found this more interesting:

FUNNY PICTURES

MONDAY! MONDAY! MONDAY! With the R! N! C!

Wednesday, March 1st, 2006

carolynweyforth.JPGAnd the wrestling pictures keep coming in.

We asked earlier which end of the political divide has the cuter operatives — the Republicans jumped to answer our call, sending in more goofy pics of them and theirs with giagantic, unshaven wrestlers/future Governors. Ah, the lovely ladies (and one guy) of the RNC — above, Angel Paulson, Gabi Plumlee, and Mina Nguyen (and a wrestler).

So, Democrats — what’s up? The rest of your competition is after the jump:
