As the Election Heats Up the Racists Take their Cue

We’ve apparently reached the part of the 2012 election where all the racist assheads emerge from the shadows in full bigoted regalia.

While not surprising, it does just make us….well, what? What does this particular demonstration make us feel? This may seem like an easy question, but maybe it isn’t so easy. Is it enraging? Sure. But by this point it’s also so cliché and mundane that it’s almost like expecting the jerk after the tap on the knee. It’s not that we thought these folks went anywhere after the 2008 election. No, of course not. Due to the Tea Party, which has been noticeably absent during much of the 2012 campaign, we saw the many, many, racist signs and slogans and t-shirts and whatever the first time around. So, where has this guy been? Continue reading

Live, Tonight! Vice President Curb-Stomps Randian Twat on TV!

Fine-it’s fair to admit that the headline is a bit optimistic. Paul Ryan is some 30 years younger than good ol’ Joe Biden, and hey, he works out, I hear. Seriously-could a guy have less in common with the average American than Paul Ryan? The man doesn’t believe in Social Security and he’s avid about fitness? If Handsome Joe wants to win this thing, he should just slide a plate of fried mozzarella sticks paid for with a WIC card under Paul Ryan’s mug and watch him turn his nose up. Mainstream America would destroy the sumbitch who would turn down fried cheese, regardless of how it was procured.  Continue reading

10 Things We Need Joe Biden to Do in Tonight’s Debate


Did you ever think it would come down to Joe Biden? For a second time, the Vice Presidential debates featuring Joe Biden is sure to be one of the most watched Vice Presidential debates in history.

Here are a few things we want Joe to be aware of though.  Continue reading

Mitt Romney Shakes His Etch-A-Sketch On Abortion

Now that we can hopefully move on from Mitt Romney’s explosively devoid of truth debate performance where he conjured a look-a-like hopped up on aggressive position-shifting jujubes to great success, let’s all continue to focus on what has become the new face of the man. That face is still carved in an Etch-A-Sketch. The latest showing, his miraculous new position on abortion he laid out late Tuesday. Are we still going to call this a success? Continue reading

Andrew Sullivan, Yeah, We’re Gonna Need You to Calm Down

Do you know what happened yesterday? No? Jennifer Aniston purchased received the biggest engagement ring anyone has ever seen. No, seriously, that thing was bigger than a Pillsbury biscuit on her next-to-FU finger. Sure. Haha. No one cares about Jennifer Aniston’s diabolical plot to in-yer-face get married before Brad and Angelina. What we cared about in droves was the recent poll numbers that showed Barack Obama IS FARGING LOSING THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE! Foiled again, Aniston. Continue reading

Paul Ryan Continues to Show the “Grace” and “Maturity” He’s Known For

Oh, we’re just joking. He shows neither of those things.

Paul Ryan got a bit testy and snotty today when a local reporter of Flint, Michigan’s ABC12 deigned ask him about gun control and tax cuts as a follow-up question as it related to supporting community programs and charities to in Ryan’s words, “Help people in inner cities have more opportunities so they won’t resort to gun violence.” We would also like to tell Paul that inner cities aren’t the only places where there is gun violence.

Obama-Romney Debate Live Blog

With only five weeks until the election, the GOP’s point of no return zipped past in the rearview weeks ago. About the time Mitt Romney spent a muggy night in Tampa following up the weirdest public display by a senior citizen since Reagan’s second term with a bore-fest, the tide started turning against America’s favorite Mormon-Plutocratic-Android.

Tonight, that could all change. Mitt Romney could give the performance of a life time, the President could have a ‘Kill Whitey’ moment, and Ann Romney could spend Thursday morning planning for ways to keep ‘you people’ away from the Executive Mansion. Continue reading
