Jon Stewart Reports on Assigning Blame for The Country's Current Problems

Blame Bush Jr. for two clusterfuck wars, a clusterfuck of an economy, the total deregulation of the oil industry?  How dare you!!

Creepy Al Gore Accusation Leaked

If this is even remotely true, Al Gore has absolutely 0 game with the ladies.  

Less than 0--this is just flat out pathetic....and to think this guy served as Bill Clinton's wingman for 8 years??

Senate Titan Robert Byrd of West Virginia Dies

At 92 years old, Byrd leaves as the most tenured member of the United States Senate in the bodies's history.

The man, put simply, was a legislative titan:  having served as a Senator for 51 years, for the American Congress, for the United States, they do not come any bigger than Senator Byrd.

An avid historian, Byrd studied the Roman Senate--and his frequent comparison's to that entity's history and eventual demise with that of America's were thought provoking and fascinating.

He was a political peer of JFK, who would have been 93 if he were still alive today.

Poll: Tea partiers want gov’t to protect manufacturing jobs, impose tariffs to safeguard environment.

Less government!!!!

More government!!!!

Government get me a job!!!

I don't know what the fuck I think or want!!  But at least I am a part of something, whatever that something is!!

--the so called 'tea party' movement will go down in American history as the dumbest, most brain dead 'political movement' ever...

Should Hillary and Biden Switch Jobs?

It's actually a really interesting concept that happens to make quite a bit of sense.  Biden really doesn't have much of a future as a legitimate presidential candidate, it would seem.

Hillary does.  Can you say Hillary versus Jeb Bush in 2016, anyone?

Americans are suckers for European style monarchical dynasties--

Explosive New Gore Sex Scandal Allegation

Bizarrely, The National Enquirer has become the paper of record on these types of things--remember it was them who exposed the John Edwards affair/love child ordeal a few years back...

But Al Gore?  Man you really can't judge a book by its cover, can you?

AND HOW MANY POWERFUL MEN THROUGHOUT HISTORY HAVE BEEN BROUGHT DOWN IN FLAMES BY FOLLOWING THEIR STIFF PRICKS INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC??!


I can't wait to have a look at this chick--you know the pictures/facebook profile, etc. are coming ala Elliot Spitzer and his whore.

Boss Limbaugh Lays Down the Line Regarding GOP Response to BP Oil Catastrophe

Expect the party's tune to change pretty quickly here, as Rush Limbaugh is easily the most powerful Republican voice in America these days, with his legions of 'dittoheads' willing to jump off of a bridge if he deemed fit.

Amazing how a 4 time married, draft dodging, recovering drug addict can be considered conservative in any way, shape, or form, by the way....

As Don King says, "Only in America."....

Nevada GOP Senate Candidate Could Very Well be a Birther

Hey, why the hell not?!

You see it's hip these days to be a no-nothing anti-government type.  All you have to do is be anti-government, anti-Obama....and hell, you're qualified to be a United States senator!!

Issues?

Fuck the issues, this is easy!!

Top General in Afghanistan Could be Fired Soon

Let's face it, serving as the top military officer in the endless quagmire that is Afghanistan has got to be one of the worst jobs in the world right now.

Probably worse than being a New York City cabbie--which is saying something.

Still, giving an interview like this one to Rolling Stone shows a shocking lack of judgement.

The pressure, it seems, has finally gotten to General McChrystal.

Weed Lollipops Handed out During Lakers Parade

Ahh the wheels of capitalism are alive and well in the great state of California!

The concept of 'Medical Marijuana' is being totally misused and abused.  Marijuana should be legal, like booze is, period.

Booze, of course, being the vastly more dangerous drug of the two--

Tea Party Darling Rubio Getting Florida House Foreclosed On


Fiscal conservatism in real life, apparently, is much harder for Florida Senate candidate Marco Rubio than it is to just spout off talking points fed to him by Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, and others.

Hey but the shit I'm saying sounds so good, and seems to be so right!  Big government bad!  Low taxes good!

This guy is a total, full on, empty suit...

White House Goes After Barton on BP Apology


White House smells blood in Barton apology

A very fast, campaigny statement from Robert Gibbs after Rep. Joe Barton apologized to BP on the White House's behalf during a hearing this morning:
What is shameful is that Joe Barton seems to have more concern for big corporations that caused this disaster than the fishermen, small business owners and communities whose lives have been devastated by the destruction. Congressman Barton may think that a fund to compensate these Americans is a ‘tragedy’, but most Americans know that the real tragedy is what the men and women of the Gulf Coast are going through right now. Members from both parties should repudiate his comments.
This is just the sort of moment the Obama campaign seized effectively and drove hard against Clinton and McCain.

Is This Tiger Woods' Bastard Son?

Story here

Extremely disturbing Seattle police incident caught on video.

Observation #1--He should not have punched her.
Observation #2--This officer appears to be very, very physically weak and ought to be ashamed of himself.
Observation #3--Cops have an outrageously difficult job, and are not paid enough.  More on story here...

Expect Your Seafood Prices To Skyrocket

I mean, not sure if you've thought about this or not...but if you live in the United States and are a big seafood eater---expect your restaurant bills, which have already probably increased somewhat...to skyrocket over the next few months.

Especially if you like oysters and other shellfish....

Political Reporters Disappearing from Campaign Trails

This, of course, is a direct result of the death spiral the entire newspaper industry has been in over the past several years as the Internet destroys their businesses.

What this will lead to if not reversed, unquestionably, will be a worse country for all of us.

Shitty candidates will get by with their millions in corporate funded campaign dollars sticking to their standard propaganda stump speeches without ever being questioned by traditional investigative journalism.

And then, of course, these empty suits will write laws for us....

Oh yeah, remember the biggest crook in the history of human civilization???

Mitch Daniels Tests 2012 Waters

Current Indiana governor Mitch Daniels could easily be elected president one day--just probably not in 2012, which will be Mitt Romney's turn--unless something (bimbo eruption, etc.) happens to derail his candidacy.

He could very well wind up on the ticket, though, as Romney's running mate.  The guy is moderate and smart--very different from the wingnut/tea baggers that have sucked up all the GOP oxygen over the past year or so...

Keep your eye on him.

Using Nuke to Stop Oil Leak Being Discussed

It goes to show you just what a clusterfuck this oil spill really is...There appears to be literally no answer to it, nothing the human race can do to stop it.

But using nuclear bombs???  You can't be serious---

Bullshit Cutter Alert on The State of American Politics

FACT #2: THE DEMOCRATS STAND APPROXIMATELY A 55% CHANCE OF RETAINING CONTROL OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES AFTER THIS NOVEMBER'S ELECTIONS.

If you disagree with either of these stats, go make yourself some money!!!

    Free Market Purist, Anti-Government Tea Party Right Wing Politicians Whine Like Stuck Bitches for Federal Aid During Oil Spill Disaster

    Whoaa!  But all that 'anti-federal government' stuff sounded so good and made me feel so smart!?!!  

    It won me elections, too....  Fuck, does this mean I will actually have to turn my brain on and think about difficult things?

    MOMMY MOMMY, I MEAN GOVERNMENT GOVERNMENT, PLEASE HELP ME!!


    Some great comments from the article below..

    Here is part of the problem. These hypocrites are the ones who want "limited" government and have been pushing for "Deregulation" because the "free market" will take care of everything. Hey, if the free market takes care of everything, then you should not need the Feds to bail your a**es out. Just let BP do what it wants to do and everything will be fine.

    If you had listened to those "rotten", "socialist" liberals and had regulations in place and had inspectors in M&M that were not actually in bed with the oil companies, this would never have happened. If you voted for Saint Ray-gun and the two bushes, you are part of the problem because you supported deregulation and limited government.

    An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

    But will these jerks learn from this? Hell no.

    Don't worry folks, as soon as the emergency passes, they will go right back to saying big government is the problem, not the solution. Hypocrisy never dies in the modern Republican Party.
