THAT'S NOT FUNNY

Pat Buchanan’s Shocking Hate Speech Against Sweet Levi Johnston

Monday, July 13th, 2009

We kind of like the young Alaskan who mistakenly knocked up Alex Rodriguez, which is why it’s so difficult to watch Pat Buchanan uttering this wild-eyed suggestion to drown him, in the crick. Buchanan is such a racist against the descendants of gold miners. [Media Matters]


RUSTY'S COMEDY FACEBOOK STYLINGS

Gorilla Joker Apologizes, Again, For Racist Remarks

Thursday, June 18th, 2009

Second verse, same as the first.It’s been such a fun week for the South Carolina GOP, with all the comedy about gorillas and aspirins! But now it must come to an end because the humorless nancies of the Far Left have demanded a more sincere apology from Rusty DePass, the Republican operative who explained his crack about “Michelle Obama’s ancestor” by pointing out that she believed in evolution or something.

DAVID LETTERMAN PARKING LOT

The Letterman Protest Nuts You’ve Been Hearing About

Wednesday, June 17th, 2009

There are doubtless a billion YouTubes out there already about the half-dozen loons who stood outside David Letterman’s studio yesterday and complained about how “he rapes children with his mouth,” but this one looked good to us. You might laugh, but stop and think a minute: did they succeed in getting Letterman fired or not? Exactly. [Daily Intel]

Letterman Sorry For Saying Some Thing About Sarah Palin’s Daughter

Thursday, June 11th, 2009

How many daughters does Sarah Palin have? Like fourteen? Well, David Letterman made a CRUDE REMARK about one of them, apparently intending to refer to the oldest one ( “Bridgeport”) but inadvertently referring to the middle one ( “Jester”). And voila just like that a harmless “gals is always gettin’ pregnant” joke turned into a “isn’t it hilarious when 14-year-olds get raped by baseball stars” joke, so he had to apologize for that. Ugh. Everybody just needs to wash out their minds with soap — Ivory soap, the soap of virgins. [Political Ticker]

Background Hijinks Disrupt Important Reporting Of Financial News, Weather

Tuesday, September 16th, 2008

Here is a clip of what one flustered CNN anchor calls “two guys pretending to console each other” after yesterday’s carnage on Wall Street. (SHHH DON’T TELL ANYONE IT IS SOME SORT OF HOWARD STERN PRANK.) After the jump, Hurricane Ike comes to town … in a bear suit. MORE »

Barack Obama Is Killing Comedy

Tuesday, July 15th, 2008

Comedy is not PrettyWhy does Barack Obama hate the nation’s hard-working comedians, satirists and cartoonists? That’s the important question teevee-industry reporter Bill Carter is asking today, in a New York Times piece complaining that nobody can make fun of Hopey because of hope, change, and racial transcendence. Yet the rednecks and racists are free to peck out their ALL CAPS emails and blog comments about how Barack Hussein Osama and his wife Angela Davis the Black Terrorist will turn America into some unimaginable place where black people aren’t slaves.

POPE

Somebody Doesn’t Like The Booble Head Pope!

Friday, April 11th, 2008

Mmm, booblesReaders, what do you have against this exotic creature known as the “booble head”? Why do you take his and the Lord’s name in vain? One concerned Wonkette visitor wants to know why you are such crazed haters that you would patronize a Web site that is basically Lucifer’s inferno, only with swear words. MORE »

Bobblehead Pope Ad Offends Humorless Catholics

Wednesday, April 9th, 2008

SO OFFENSIVEThe DC Metro ran this ad on a bobbleheaded Pope riding the Metro to a big crazy Papal Mass at Nationals Stadium, and the Washington Archdiocese was like, Hey that is not funny, you are talking about the leader of our religion there, and he would never advise riding the DC Metro, furthermore he is not wearing the right Pope-hat.

DEMOCRATS

Saturday, March 8th, 2008

'I'll stick with you baby for a thousand years.THAT’S SEXIST: The Washington Post is super sorry for running that funny column last week by that one lady about how the ladies are swooning for Handsome Barack Obama. Washington Post “Ombudsman” Deborah Powell writes: “But my umpteen years of experience have taught me to be wary of using humor, satire or irony about gender, race or religion.” Yes, we noticed that.

DEMOCRATS

Wednesday, February 6th, 2008

Sistas are doing it to themselvesLADIES ANGRY AT OTHER LADIES: How many feminists does it take to write a pathetically sincere Huffington Post column about how feminists are not going to take this whole “you have to vote for Hillary because she’s a lady” pressure from the Clintons? The answer is, of course, “That’s not funny!” (Also, the answer is “two,” as in “it took two feminists to write this shit.”) [Huffington Post]
