Everything Is Biased Against Conservatives

Thursday, February 22nd, 2007

Thanks for the help with Windows ME, Val Kilmer! - WonketteDepressed Bush lovers may only make up about 28% of an already dumb population, but that’s still a lot of people — 60 million of the country’s 217 million adults. That’s exactly the population of France!

Just like we now require a “rock music” industry for Christian kids and handicapped parking spaces for the crippled, we also need parallel-world media for Bushbots. They’ve got a new comedy political show that boldly never makes a joke about the president, and now they’ve got their own “Conservapedia” that won’t allow foreigners and science to muck up The Truth. Come see what makes them differently abled, after the jump.

User-Created Satire to Destroy MSM, Mock Kids With Down Syndrome

Crass Covert Cads Calumniate Congressional Cutie!

Thursday, August 10th, 2006

herseth.jpg

Hello everybody. This is your guest-blogger here. It’s a well-known fact that the Wonkette regulars have a sick, twistedly sexual, and frankly sad obsession with Katherine Harris. Thus, I thought I’d use this platform to reveal my own secret and much healthier Capitol Hill crush, South Dakota’s at-large Congressperson Stephanie Herseth. That’s her over the right. Isn’t she adorable?

Anyway, usually she keeps a fairly low profile and thus manages to stay off this site’s lecherous radar, but in the last week or so she’s found herself entangled in an imbroglio that involves fake fiances, fake fetuses, and a vandalized Wikipedia article. More on the madness after the jump.
