It’s not often I am rendered completely bewildered and speechless by a news item but this morning, I am. And, big surprise, it’s because of news coming out of Arizona. What would you think if you read this? …[A]rmored vehicles, including a tank, rolled into their neighborhood to make the bust. Neighbor Debra Ross was so worried she called 911 […]

I love my Washington Times Marketing Showcase email membership. It’s an endless source of entertainment. Just before I left work yesterday I got this amazing email: Millionaire Patriot Wants YOU Armed and Trained… Yup, that’s right boyz and girlz! FREE GUNS FOR TEABAGGERS!!! Now comes Dr. Ignatius Piazza, Founder and Director, Four Weapons Combat Master. And he’s so freakin’ rich […]

Neither my wife or I (or probably Waffle Guy himself) ever dreamed that Waffle Guy mania would sweep the internets. But, happily, it seems to be. Want proof? Here’s proof: That’s a Photoshopped version of my wife’s picture with Waffle Guy’s face replaced with Tim Urban, the guy that got the boot from American Idol last night. It’s from the […]

For some reason I thought we had put headlines like this behind us: Mad cow worry prompts beef recall But, as a vegetarian, I have to say that I just absolutely LOVE the first line of the story: A North Dakota bison processor is recalling about 25,000 pounds of whole beef heads because the animals’ tonsils may not have been […]

Today the Teabag Party Express starts it 2010 World Tour in Searchlight, Nevada, home of Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. Organizers said they are expecting 10,000 people. It’s a little something I’m calling the Clown Show in the DesertTM Searchlight’s population, according to teh Googles, is 798. It was 576 after the 2000 census. Holy freakin’ clown show, Batman! This […]

He can’t be all four. Nicked from the most-awesome Adam Thinks blog. Buy it as a t-shirt HERE. I’m just sayin’…

Heh, heh… “I don’t owe [John McCain] shit,” Wurzelbacher continued. “He really screwed my life up, is how I look at it.” Uh, Joe Sam? I think you have that backwards. I ran into Joe the Plumber Sam Wurzelbacher at the Brighton, Michigan Teabagger extravaganza last year. And, as far as who was using who, I’d say Mr. Plumber Wurzelbacher […]

While I don’t agree with him on everything, I appreciate Andrew Sullivan and his outsider’s (British) perspective on American politics. His essay in the Sunday Times this past weekend, titled “Listen up, the president is not for turning” is no exception. And it has some common sense observations that all of us, conservatives and liberals alike, would do well to […]

Surely you know about the most-horrible Westboro Baptist Church and their most-horrible “God Hates Fags” protests. Wanna know how to effectively protest complete morans like this? You do it like this [location: San Francisco (of course)]: Photo by EDW Lynch Photo by EDW Lynch You can work anything into a Rick Roll, can’t you?Photo by LiveSoMa Here’s a coupla Twitter-related […]

Looks like the anti-HCR Teabagger-types have realized that they just can’t seem to get those millions and millions of people to show up at their protests (remember how well their “Die In” went?) Now comes the “Virtual March”. Yes, kids, no need to actually GO to Washington, D.C. Why stand in the cold for your principles when you can do […]

As reported by Devilstower on the front page of the Daily Kos a couple of days ago, the Teabaggers were ready to hit the ground protestin’ at the Detroit Auto Show. Ready to protest bailing out the auto industry. You know, the one that employs 60% of Michigan workers? Well, they were outnumbered by some union folks who showed up […]
