Tuesday, February 24th, 2009

Ba'rahk O'BamaHey you squawking dingleberries on the cable teevee news? Are you aware there was a Stock Market Rally today?

Next Year They Can Attack President WALNUTS!: Liveblogging the Democratic Response

Monday, January 28th, 2008

sebe.jpgGeorge W. Bush is still president? I thought we had six presidents, mostly in Florida now, who will slowly whittle down to one: the most Changing candidate. Is Bush still doing things, laws and lies and such, and we don’t know because we’ve been watching the 2008 crowd? Did he mention a War on Syria in that speech, a surprise war, that’s somehow three, four weeks old, and we have no shred of a clue? I didn’t watch the State of the Union, but I bet it was… that.

Here’s the governor of Kansas, Kathleen Sebelius, giving the Democrat response. MORE »

GEORGE W. BUSH

The Eighth Annual G.W. Bush S.O.T.U. Drinking Game

Monday, January 28th, 2008

Drink up, and be somebody, I'll have another roundSince January 2001, when our then-new President Bush gave his first fake State of the Union address — it was actually a “budget message,” as he had only been in the White House a few hours and hadn’t yet screwed up the country forever — America has gathered together for one glorious evening each January for our most precious freedom.
