Sean Hannity’s Dumb Puzzle Solved Immediately

Wednesday, February 18th, 2009

Known anus Sean Hannity has a new feature on his Fox News television program, Hannity & Death, in which he peels off a piece of a big puzzle every day for Obama’s first 100 days in office. Behind the puzzle is a picture which will — according to the web producer of Hannity’s “The Great American Blog,” which is also a common nom de guerre for Wonkette — “reveal the true Barack Obama underneath.” So it was up for a few days before the entire Internet figured it out. Shocking visual commentary, below! MORE »

Thursday, January 29th, 2009

DRINK-SOAKED FORMER TROTSKYIST POPINJAYS

Christopher Hitchens Is Funny When He Talks About The Clintons

Tuesday, December 2nd, 2008

TPM’s excited about this clip, claiming that Salon’s Joan Walsh lays a “smackdown” on Christopher Hitchens… we don’t really see that? It’s just the drunk anger troll pissing off the nice lady. Ha ha, it is amazing how much Christopher Hitchens hates the Clintons. He hates them more than Andrew Sullivan does. Here’s the full clip, in which Christopher Hitchens mentions at least 500 other foreign business ties of the Clintons, and Joan Walsh occasionally chimes in to say “Christopher how could you say that!” [TPM, MSNBC]


LEAVE BARRY AND HILLARY ALONE!

Arianna Huffington Has Unique Take On Clinton Appointment

Monday, November 24th, 2008

We’ll put this nicely since we don’t wish to become victims of Gawker-style HuffPo blogroll revenge: GIVE THE POOR DUO A CHANCE, FAIREST ARIANNA! She writes in this column of hers, “It’s a Nora Ephron romantic comedy. When Hillary Met Barack. Sleepless in Chappaqua. You’ve Got Fundraising Email. Two intensely driven politicians cross paths, each seeking the highest office in the land — talk about a cute meet!” Just… gahh… hmm… we see the writerly device here and it’s trite vapid plagiarism of Maureen Dowd not very edifying. Look. This selection process has been the most drama-free thing a Clinton has ever done. Celebrate! [HuffPo]

Hillary Clinton/Secretary Of State Rumors Flying Every Which Way

Friday, November 14th, 2008

Last night we began hearing that Hillary Clinton was under serious consideration to be Barack Obama’s Secretary of State, and that she flew to Chicago to meet with him about possibilities. This being Hillary Clinton, we of course are now engulfed in a wave of rumors, leaks, trial balloons, anonymous sources… Drama. It is how the Clintons, or any stories remotely involving them, tend to roll out. Let’s see what the latest gossip’s telling us about old Hillary. It ranges anywhere from Ronald Reagan retroactively appointing her to be assistant manager at a Baskin Robbins in Utah to her going on food stamps to her having sex with Monica Lewinsky and Vince Foster on a pile of moon rocks, for Obama.

Barry's dog eats elevator ballsBarack Obama and his Husseinbots tried to suffocate all three Clintons last night, in a Pepsi Center elevator. That is not Change We Need — it’s attempted murder! Read this SUN-TIMES EXCLUSIVE MUST CREDIT: “The Clinton family — Bill, Hillary and Chelsea — got stuck in an elevator Wednesday night, shortly after they left their box at the Pepsi Center … The Clintons got stuck midway between one floor and the next, and ultimately had to climb out of the elevator, back up three-and-a-half-feet to the next floor.” According to this EXCLUSIVE, “Observers were impressed at how calm everyone remained” in the face of rogue black hope elevators trying to kill them.

Jeb Bush To Become Third Black President

Monday, June 16th, 2008

If it weren’t for the greatest president in modern times, George Walker Bush, Jr., the Republican nominee in 2008 would be his Brother, Jebediah “Jeb” Bush, the second male heir to the Bush crown and a known Mexican. He would win, because why not. But George Jr. got to the presidency first, and despite his fantastic performance over the last eight years, the Liberals would use the sum of their mighty slapping powers to prevent Jeb’s latest Bush presidency. Poor Jeb. But since everyone in this country forgets everything, he can easily run in 2012, which George Jr. today suggested his brother might do. Country, saved. MORE »

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

Don’t you just love when people openly admit that they are voting for Hillary because it’ll get Bill back in the White House? Like this Kentucky man with his pin? It’s almost as amazing as how some people still like Bill Clinton. [Getty Photo]

Spike Lee Throws Clintons Under The Bus

Monday, April 7th, 2008

Here is what fun filmmaker Spike Lee says about the Clintons: “The Clintons, man, they would lie on a stack of Bibles. Snipers? That’s not misspeaking; that’s some pure bullshit. I voted for Clinton twice, but that’s over with. These old black politicians say, ‘Ooh, Massuh Clinton was good to us, massuh hired a lot of us, massuh was good!’ Hoo! Charlie Rangel, David Dinkins–they have to understand this is a new day. People ain’t feelin’ that stuff. It’s like a tide, and the people who get in the way are just gonna get swept out into the ocean.” Why hasn’t Al Gore thrown Tom Daschle under the bus yet? [New York Magazine]

Hillary To ‘Level’ Your House, With Bulldozers

Tuesday, March 25th, 2008


Ooh boy, Hillary Clinton has her first ad up in Pennsylvania, the thing that is voting in like a month! She says she will “level the playing field” by taking money away from the Corporates, who made most of their money in the 1990s when “The Clintons” were personally sending dump trucks of $100 bills to Fat Cats’ front yards.

All Clinton Team Does Is Fight Each Other, Always

Thursday, February 14th, 2008

What happens when you’re losing and your new ad disappoints and a fiery Mark Penn is in a room with some equally fiery ad-maker lady and a crybaby political director? A melee of words happens, and internal fissures are blown wide open! This is precisely what happened last week at Clinton HQ. MORE »
