Wednesday, August 12th, 2009

AMERICA COLD GOIN' NUTS

Report From The Front Lines Of St. Louis Health Care War

Saturday, August 8th, 2009

Look at him, strutting around like he's cock of the walk. Well let me tell you, Homer Simpson is cock of nothing! You and I can run this plant ourselves...We’ve all been feeling so proud of our nation after hearing yesterday’s news about the insane, bloody war — like real-life, actual War, with guns and troops and Prussians and shit — scheduled for St. Louis today, between the unions and the people who should be in unions but aren’t and therefore hate unions. So, what was the BODY COUNT? Brave operative “Nick B.” brings us the whole, sad story: “My two friends and I were the ONLY people counter-protesting at the wingnut SEIU protest in St. Louis today, and I thought I might share what went down. The SEIU office is just a few blocks away, so we made some signs with posterboard and headed down, assuming that there would be others like us. But when we got there it was just a crowd of 150 or so with ‘Don’t Tread On Me’ signs (which fooled us at first, since they’re the same colors as SEIU has), with people on both sides of the street.” Click the clicky to see whether “Nick” survived, or e-mailed us his report from Hell.

LET'S GO TO ST. LOUIS!

Actual War To Happen In St. Louis Tomorrow

Friday, August 7th, 2009

Things are so fucked up right now in America. The atmosphere surrounding these health care town halls is evolving faster than the HIV virus on cocaine, and steroids. Last night we saw the first fights break out in St. Louis and Tampa, over proposed legislation to reform an inefficient, costly sector of the domestic economy. For a heartwarming account of the Tampa event, read the delightful e-mail Ta-Nehisi Coates received today! As for St. Louis, things went so well yesterday, violence-wise, that they’re all getting back together tomorrow to murder each other. MORE »


PARTY CRASHES

Libtards Host Fancy Obama Art Party With NO FOOD WHATSOEVER

Tuesday, January 20th, 2009

So the absolute most worthless people on this rotten planet are liberals, filthy rat-sucking liberals, particularly limousine liberals from liberal Hollywood and their east coast enablers, the Non-Profit Outreach Directors. They get together for these Red Bull-fueled art parties on either coast a couple of times a year to literally masturbate to themselves. They have NO FOOD at their parties because they are all gay, and anorexic. We went to one of these parties last night, and just you wait for this blush of libtardation: “The MoveOn.org, SEIU, Obey Giant Manifest Hope DC Party.” It was actually pretty cool and we don’t mean any of the nasty things we just wrote. (But seriously, no food.) Sexy picture time! MORE »


DEMOCRATS

Rich People to Spend Day in Uncomfortable Shoes

Tuesday, August 7th, 2007

John Edwards, Barack Obama - WonketteSo the SEIU has this thing where they ask all the candidates to “walk a mile in my shoes,” where the “my” is your typical SEIU member, i.e. not a rich person. Chris Dodd did it and the pictures are hilarious. Tomorrow, Barack Obama will pretend to a healthcare worker for a day. Because playing dress-up and entering the land of make-believe is the surest way of proving that you care about and understand the problems of the American working class. But hell, why limit it to the working class? Why can’t other groups get in on this action? Why can’t the candidates walk this mile in more comfortable shoes, belonging to people with more exciting jobs? We think it might go, a little something, like this… MORE »
