Former VP Candidate Sarah Palin left about a third of her Indiana book fans in a bind.
Crowds waited more than three hours at Borders in Noblesville to get a wristband for the autograph line, then another three hours to get Palin’s signature.  One thousand wristbands were given out.  With 300 people left, Palin [...]

This just in…Jesus’ followers are really pissing him off.  They are such a vast embarrassment.  It seems Christian devotee and proud conservative Carrie Prejean accidently made seven additional dirty porn tapes and inadvertently had 30 more nasty pictures taken.
So, the Almighty hauled off and socked her one.
Just so you know, until today, I [...]

South Park lends credence to the notion that if Fox News reported it, it never happened.

Eric Cartman stole the early morning school announcements this week channeling Glenn Beck. Instead of Obama is a racist, we got Wendy the Class President is a slut.

Keith Olbermann’s post at Baseball Nerd conjured up a memory of this old cartoon in which Ralph the Coyote and Sam the Sheepdog get along sportingly in the real world, but are out for blood once the clock is punched.
This is a shot of Sean Hannity taking a snap shot of MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann while [...]

Okay, his name his actually pronounced Gow.

Those chucklehead Republicans went all apeshit on the House floor today.
Ha!  And you all were watching football!!!
The conservative clown troupe first objects to the democRAT ladies talking at all.
Representative John Dingell (D-Michigan) ages right before your eyes!!!

Alan Grayson (D-FL) read the number of people who would die due to no health insurance coverage in Republican districts around the nation.   Grayson refused to yield time when interrupted.  Eventually, Rep.

“I am them.”
No, it’s not some deep philosophical statement antithetical to existentialism.
It’s Mary Strey’s response to the 911 dispatcher when asked “Who is the drunk driver?”
At least Strey had enough of a conscience to realize the hazard she posed, but hells bells…drunk dialing 911?
Wisconsin deputies took her into custody with a blood alcohol level twice [...]

Here’s a great big thank you from Veronica De La Cruz.  She pushed for a goal of 500 signatures by midnight last evening petitioning Congress to do Health Care Reform right.  That means a public option to guarantee competition.  Americans do not deserve to be left at the mercy of ruthless insurance companies.  And it [...]

He has taken his turn hurting the tender feelings of sensitive Republicans who are just trying to save health insurance companies.  Now that crazy, mavericky, diarrhea-of-the-mouth congressman from Florida is going after the world’s oldest profession.  Whores.
Not to be confused with the Parliament of  Whores.
Representative Alan Grayson referred to a former lobbyist in the [...]

Wow.  Rush Limbaugh is so remarkably stupid.  I’m sure he took enormous pleasure in calling Barack Obama “little boy” on the air Friday, but Limbaugh was SO wrong!  Limbaugh was duped by a satiric web piece about a fake undergraduate thesis supposedly written by Obama while at Columbia.  It’s easy to see how Limbaugh missed [...]

Put down the partisanship, and step away from Brand Cheney.
Former Vice President Dick Cheney reminds everyone he’s older than Satan by whipping out the word “dithering” in an attempted criticism of his cousin President Barack Obama.

After an eight year love affair with the Bush White House, the Fox News bed is now cold.  Chris Wallace of Fox News Sunday cried a good ten minutes over being a wallflower with analysts, former Bush senior advisor Karl Rove and former Clinton campaign advisor Terry McAuliffe.  The Obama administration won’t dance.
