John McCain Admits He Is a Fraud, Declares Love For Russ Feingold
John McCain went on the Senate floor to deliver a heartfelt eulogy today about Russ Feingold, his dear campaign-finance-reform life-partner, even though Feingold is still alive, geez.

Lame Joe Lieberman And Russ Feingold Are Still So Into The Czar Meme!
Joe Lieberman, the actual human equivalent of a chain letter forwarded to you by your grandparents, has a very important tuff-guy job as chair of the Homeland Security Committee. And he’ll tell ya, he does not like Obama’s coterie of czars, not one bit. He’ll probably hold some trenchant as shit hearings about the hated [...]
