Al Franken Will Win Minnesota Senate Seat Because More Stupid Voters Like Him

Monday, November 24th, 2008

Dignity.Have you all been following this Franken-Coleman senatorial recount drudgery on the FiveThirtyEight? Good for you! Certain Wonkette editors have resisted wading into those treacherous waters, for they are abrim with regression analyses & dragonnes & awful flashbacks to Florida of 2000. But here is a funny non-maths-related theory about the soul-sucking recount process in Minnesota, and one novel Republican explanation for why the venerated radio host Al Franken will win! MORE »

ELECTORAL HANGOVER

Your Post-Election Dangly Bits

Wednesday, November 5th, 2008

Read all about it!Amid all the excitement of last night’s HISTORIC ELECTION a few important questions went unanswered, at least here on the Wonkette. For example: did fluorescent light foe and unrepentant baby-farmer Michelle Bachmann successfully defend her Minnesota district from insurgent chaotic-good lawn sprite Elwyn Tinklenberg? And whatever happened to that poop factory over in San Francisco? This morning, we have answers. MORE »

DAMAGE CONTROL

Michele Bachmann Says She ‘Never Questioned Barack Obama’s Patriotism’

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

Acorn!The proudly ignorant baby farmer and bold anti-flourescent light crusader Michele Bachmann, Congresswoman from Minnesota, has been horribly victimized by the liberal left-wing anti-American attack machine. All these crazy leftists have been watching this Hardball interview she gave last week and reading the transcript of the interview, and, based on this publicly accessible and quickly verifiable information, reaching easily supportable conclusions! Well she’s had about enough of this nonsense. MORE »


OH SNAP

Check Out The Pleasant New Anti-Franken Ad

Monday, September 22nd, 2008

This new Republican National Senatorial Committee ad against Minnesota candidate Al Franken calls him a rape-lover who loves to rape white women or really rape anything; rapes boys, rapes pandas, even rapes himself when he’s out of other things to rape. Rape rape rape rape raper rap erp rae peraraep. The rape ad tells us that his rape porn is “so vile” that even the rapey DEMOCRATS denounced it, the Democrats, the terrible insect-raping Democrats. And that’s why Al Franken’s in teevee rapist jail at the end of the ad: for raping rape. [YouTube]


CORRUPT REPUBLICAN PARTIES

Tom DeLay Schmoozes With Republican Lobbyists During Nazi Racist Hurricane

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

Your associate editor took a long, expensive cab ride to a party at the club Aqua, in Minneapolis, and, despite having a ticket, was rejected. SAD. Here’s what happened: this thieving piece of trash “security” tranny asked us whether we were with the media before we even entered the line, and then told us we weren’t “on the media list.” Shortly thereafter we procured our regular, non-media ticket and were about to enter until, then, this same tranny told us we could not enter because she already “knew” we were with the media. “I have the right to revoke the ticket, this is a private affair, no media,” spaketh the tranny. Well, fine. But did she think we didn’t know what was going on in there? MORE »


A CITY IN IMAGES

St. Paul, The Night Before The Jackass Convention

Monday, September 1st, 2008

Last night, your Wonkette editors visited the city of St. Paul, in Minnesota. What a glorious City Of Lights! Ha ha, not really, it was empty except for cops and military people protecting John McCain Arena. We thought this was offensive — why are the cops and military people still here when there’s a hurricane in New Orleans? Racists. Let’s check out a few more pictures from this famous twin Minnesota city that locals know as “The Boring One.” MORE »


THE NEW CONSERVATIONISTS

Senator Norm Coleman Didn’t Pay Utility Bills At Tragic Hovel

Thursday, August 14th, 2008

Get a job and pay your electric bill, bum!It is common knowledge around D.C. that Hobo King Norm Coleman sleeps in a drawer and gives hand jobs for lunch money. But NOW it turns out that he also failed for a whole year to pay the utilities on the 6-cubic-foot basement dungeon he rents from some pal of his. He is truly the most corrupt legislator invented since, who is it, that guy with the astonishing head-merkin. MORE »


ROBOT HARVESTERS

Bachmann: Nancy Pelosi Is Not Jesus, At All

Tuesday, August 12th, 2008

Your favorite crazy Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann, today: “[Pelosi] is committed to her global warming fanaticism to the point where she has said that she’s just trying to save the planet. We all know that someone did that over 2,000 years ago, they saved the planet — we didn’t need Nancy Pelosi to do that.” Al Gore saved the planet 2,000 years ago, too? Well he obviously didn’t do a very good job then; why should we trust him now? Oh and Michele Bachmann, she’s nuts, just completely gone. [OneNewsNow via TPM Election Central]
