DEBATABLE

Main Stream Media Ignores Scurrilous Rumors, But Picks Up Completely Insane Ones

Friday, August 15th, 2008

Everyone should thank CNN today for thoroughly debunking the “rumor” that Barack Obama is the Antichrist (seriously, this is somehow classified as a “rumor,” that Obama may have magical powers). The big headline, “OBAMA THE ANTICHRIST?” along with the subhed claiming that this is a real “debate” online and thousands of other images of ANTICHRIST ANTICHRIST EVIL SATAN were very necessary for the viewers watching said debunking. Raw Story has the video. Oh and let’s thank CNN for covering this same thing yesterday, too. [Raw Story]

Monday, January 21st, 2008

who knows where the e-mail goes? the hobbit knows, the hobbit knowsOn September 30, 2003, President Bush said he’d “take care” of anyone in his administration who leaked Valerie Plame’s secret CIA identity to the journalists. On THIS VERY SAME DAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 2003, Dick Cheney sent out several e-mails that have now gone missing. Our very vice president! Deleting his very e-mails! I know I never delete e-mails. MORE »


WTF

March of the Paultards

Saturday, December 29th, 2007

larp_1.jpgWe’re not entirely sure why, but on New Years Day, Paultards everywhere will participate in a march through World of Warcraft, which is an online fantasy role-paying game that’s clearly a little too much of a fantasy for many of those who play it. Raw Story says there are at least 42 characters named “Ronpaul” according to a search. But we know our Paultarded friends won’t let the number stay so low. And actually, we totally support this event and hope it’s a complete and total success in every way that in can be. We also encourage Paultards to focus more and more of their future efforts into World of Warcraft. [Raw Story]


HILLARY CLINTON

Hillary Gets Pink’d

Monday, November 19th, 2007


Hillary Clinton had a run-in with Code Pink — the lefty protest group whose previous hits include going batshit in Condi’s grill and fucking around with Politico — at a campaign stop yesterday, and she heckled back! Briefly and tersely! Barack Obama probs would’ve like, hugged the protester, because he’s all soft and babyish and stuff. Check it out in the above clip from this morning’s Fox & Friends, at the end of which one of the hosts says, “I would be for tasing anyone in Code Pink.” Meh, it would be more fun to just tase Andrew Meyer again.

RUSH LIMBAUGH

Bible’s Devil Promises GOP Win

Wednesday, October 25th, 2006

We always knew Michael J. Fox was basically in league with the Devil — Mojo Nixon described Fox as “the evil opposite of Elvis, the Anti-Elvis” — but who knew Jesus Christ himself would be coming down to help Rush Limbaugh save the innocent stem cells. MORE »
