  • Yup. Conservatives can’t do humor.  
  • Pentagon shooter was all over the place. Sounds like an Alex Jones-style Ron Paul crazy.
  • Heavens! We should sure feel terrible about those poor bankers!
  • Robert Byrd, chiding a local paper’s coverage of the health care debate:

    With all due respect, the Daily Mail’s hyperbole about “imposing government control,” acts of “disrespect to the American people” and “corruption” of Senate procedures resembles more the barkings from the nether regions of Glennbeckistan than the “sober and second thought” of one of West Virginia’s oldest and most respected daily newspapers.

    Imagine being stranded in that neighborhood!

  • A real-life ad script, from a real-life Republican idiot:

    As a mom I know one-size-fits-all clothes don’t fit, aren’t comfortable and are seldom a bargain. So why does Harry Reid want to force one-size-fits-all government health care on us? Harry Reid thinks Washington knows best, but I think we the people know best. Harry Reid’s big government health care plan will raise taxes, put a bureaucrat between you and your doctor, weaken Medicare, kill jobs, push us further into debt. I’m Sue Lowden and I approve this message because government run health care is wrong.

    Do these fucking idiots really not understand that Medicare is socialized single-payer health care?

  • Gee, I wonder why Rasmussen didn’t test the Tea Party candidate in Nevada?
  • I hope Sarah Palin’s Alaska show gets greenlighted. It would be hilarious!
  • Anti-Obama billboards of hate.
  • Sen. Jeff Merkley signs on to filibuster reform. The Open Left whip count is now between 20-24 (depending on November’s elections).
