John McCain Laughs About Katrina, FEMA

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008


Oh god that horrible imitation of a human laugh. “Well, heh heh heh, at least no Arabian horses died. Heh heh heh heh.” HILARIOUS. Only thousands of poor black people died, after Katrina. And McCain made a super funny joke about how doomed flunkie Michael Brown — the FEMA chief who previously worked for an Arabian horse club — at least hadn’t killed any precious horses owned by billionaires!


Hurricane Will Ruin Entire GOP Convention

Sunday, August 31st, 2008

Not this shit again ....Greetings from Austin, Minnesota — the home of Hormel’s famous SPAM food product, which Hawaiians such as Barack Obama eat a dozen times a day, with caviar. We are very close to St. Paul and our fancy suites, and will be there Sunday morning in time for so many cocktail parties. The question is this: Will anybody from the Republican Party show up?

Howie Kurtz Compares Bad NH Coverage to Epic Natural Disaster

Thursday, January 10th, 2008

kurtzkatrina.jpgYes, Howie, the media got all self- important about Barry and blew it on New Hamsters election night. But at least they didn’t compare their silly failures to a natural disaster that ruined the lives of many poor people. So thank you for getting on that. Also: do they pay you for this? [WP]


Brownie to Save World, Yet Again

Wednesday, October 24th, 2007

brownie.jpgPeople of Southern California who are on fire: Have no fear, for disaster relief (in the form of a human disaster) is on the way! Former FEMA Director Michael “Heckuva Job” “Brownie” “Abortion of a Human” Brown, the guy who hosted a Hurricane Party with fresh margs for himself during Katrina, is hopping on a jet plane to SoCal and will fix you AND your forests.

Cheney Tries To Finish Off New Orleans, With Nuclear Bombs

Wednesday, September 5th, 2007

We're all very different people. We're not Watusi, we're not Spartans, we're Americans.  - WonketteWhoops, ha ha, a B-52 bomber filled with live nuclear warheads was flown from North Dakota to Louisiana on Thursday, just a little fuckup, sorry about that! The “Advanced Cruise Missiles” were mounted on the plane’s wings. Probably would’ve been tough for the nukes to detonate if the plane crashed, but who knows? Ha ha ha.

Wednesday, August 29th, 2007

Despised, Incompetent Ghoul Is Top Pick For Attorney General

Monday, August 27th, 2007

Stand by your man, and show the world you love him - WonketteA widely hated cretin is the White House’s top choice for attorney general, experts said today. Michael Chertoff is known for his bizarre threats against America and his tenure at the biggest fucking joke agency in American history, the “department of homeland security.” Despised by Republicans, Democrats and actual humans, Chertoff is just the kind of loathsome creep the Bush Administration is likely to choose to be AG for a few weeks until the whole gang is rounded up and sent to Gitmo.

Wednesday, June 20th, 2007

Uhhhhh .... - WonketteCongress joined the Bush Administration for a nice little barbecue on the South Lawn last night.

Karl Rove Cracks Himself Up Mocking Black People

Thursday, March 29th, 2007

Our sister site Idolator already sorta posted this on Wonkette, but apparently nobody (including your editors) pays any attention to those things. So here, now and forever, is the stupid Fox News video of Republicans mocking black hip hop culture. MORE »
