“Herman Cain is going to be on David Letterman next week. Cain and Letterman on the same show. Has there ever been a worse time to be an intern?” – Jay Leno “It was so quiet in the theater last night. I’m telling you it was quieter here than dinner at Herman Cain’s house.” – […]
Many conservatives seem very selective about which Constitutionally guaranteed rights they recognize. Life at conception supported over living after birth. Freedom of some religions is valued but freedom from religion should not be an option. Happiness and the benefits of marriage for heterosexual couples is sanctioned but no love for others.Money is protected speech, protestors […]

Thank you Rick Perry for becoming the shiny bauble that distracted the late night comedy writers away from Herman Cain! – Iron Filing “I’m worried about Rick Perry. For one, I’m worried that maybe he’s too conservative. Two, I worry a little bit about his debating skills. And three, I — Oh, what was three?” […]
The greatest challenge to the 99% movement is not the disproportionate power of the 1%, rather it’s the power of a self-indulgent minority within our own ranks. A ‘fuck-it-all-where-can-I-throw-this-rock?’ element plagues Occupy sites from Oakland to Chapel Hill. The unfortunate and stupid chant of “Kill the cops, Burn the prisons” recorded yesterday in Chapel Hill, […]
Over the last week I have found it increasingly difficult to post Political Irony’s only regular feature, “Late Night Political Humor” because of the preponderance of Herman Cain sexual harassment jokes. Today, and until I come up with better criteria, I’ll not publish jokes that seem to put too much attention on the accusers as […]
I’ve heard the conservative/libertarian ideological opposition to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau but, like most libertarian/utopian rhetoric, the problem is reality not vision. Charles Pierce writes, “One office in the CFPB is the Office of Servicemember Affairs, which is dedicated to keeping veterans from being bilked in a hundred different ways, from loan-sharking, to predatory lending practices, […]
“The Republican presidential candidates held a debate in Michigan. Just what Michigan needs: 12 more people looking for a job.” – Conan O’Brien “There’s another Republican presidential debate tonight. This one is focused on why there were so many Republican debates.” – Jimmy Kimmel “If I were Mitt Romney, I wouldn’t show up anymore. I would […]
Now that Newt Gingrich’s poll numbers are surging, I was wondering what happened to the members of his staff that jumped ship in June. Dave Carney, Rob Johnson and Katon Dawson all went to Rick Perry. They must be having second thoughts now after switching from the morally muddy but excellent debater Gingrich to the […]

Wednesday, we reviewed 3 of 99 things to know about Mitt. Just to be fairly fair, today we’ll consider the 1 thing worth knowing about each of the other Republican candidates. Cain – He’s not running! He’s selling books and primping himself for a cushy job at Faux News Santorum – Santorum, ’nuff said, I ain’t linking […]
