Do you remember ’round about a year ago when it was all “hope and change” this and “yes we can” that, and everything was going to be fixed, forever? Ha ha! Obviously all of our problems are intractable and terrible and nobody can fix them, no matter how nice his teeth are. And so, we must muddle on with our sad, grey lives, turning briefly to media sensations for the brief peaks of joy we used to experience during holiday celebrations or sex. Tune in for more grim tidings, after the jump! MORE »

…Just too much comedy in this video of a Minnesota protest to summarize. So, one quote, from that goddamn Bachmann: “We have seen an orgy… The government spent its wad.” [YouTube, Dusty Trice]

Here’s Joe Biden this morning telling us all that we’re going to die if we travel in confined spaces (2:35 in). Hooray! And better yet, the swine flu has finally “come home” to our nation’s capital, Washington, after some slob at the World Bank (*shakes fist at World Bank*) went to Mexico, fucked a pig, and came back to our fairest city with this Pig AIDS. So hey people in DC, liquidate yr bank accounts and buy booze and we’ll hold a big orgy on the Mall tonight before we all die tomorrow. On the upside, this will fix the economy! The death of all humans, that is. [AP]

So sad! President Obama invited over a bunch of congressmen and senators to talk about being fiscally responsible, and some of them showed up, but a lot of them didn’t. Even some breakout session panelists and moderators failed to appear because who knows, maybe they had something better to do than fix the economy??? MORE »

Come one, Come all
Just plain Cum!
We of legendary Wonkette fame are having our year end blow/out/up/off, whatever your pleasure.
Discretion is thrown out the window. Bring your own Condoms (Magnum’s preferred)
email this for time & place. Enjoy!

Do not e-mail for time and place, because this is such an obvious setup that not even Mark Foley would respond. Forcefully-aborted fetuses may be thrown out the windows when LNS turbos make a romance inside daddy’s little trust-fund drunk gal, but discretion is crucial if any of these kids expect to run a K Street firm someday.

We were all excited when this ABC News headline came across our Truth Wire: “Anything Goes At Interior Department.” Anything? Like boy-prostitute rings in the White House and that sort of deal? MORE »
