Scotts Miracle-Gro is making headlines because they publicly donated $200,000 to Romney’s SuperPAC “Restore Our Future”. Yes, that is the same Scotts Miracle-Gro that pleaded guilty to selling birdseed that was coated with a pesticide toxic to birds, even after their own scientists warned them of the problem. And in a separate case, falsified documents […]
Fox News has a “voter fraud unit”? Have they no shame?
© Jim Morin Considering that Mitt Romney’s father said politicians running for president should release 12 years of tax returns, and that Mitt himself, when he was running for the Senate against Edward Kennedy, called for Kennedy to release his tax returns, that there must be some really embarrassing reason why Romney won’t release his. […]
“Why don’t they allow professional wrestling at the Olympics? They allow pro basketball players and hockey players. Olympic pro wrestling would be awesome. The team from Mexico could wear those Mr. X masks. The French wrestler could hit his opponent with a baguette. Or perhaps just surrender.” – Craig Ferguson “An American judo fighter was […]

Today we have a Jon Stewart double header! When I started watching this video, I was worried that it was another example of where liberals bemoan it when Democratic politicians won’t play hardball like the Republicans do, but then attack those same Democratic politicians when they do play hardball. But then Jon Stewart pulls it […]

After the whole Valerie Plame mess, I’m surprised that anyone would give a job to Judith Miller (or even listen to anything she has to say). But I’m not surprised that it was Fox News.
© Tom Tomorrow Experts agree: the best way to win elections is to convince the majority of people that their vote doesn’t matter, that nothing can be done, and that all candidates are the same. And then energize their wing-nut base to go vote.
Mitt Romney finally released his tax plan. To nobody’s surprise, it consists largely of cutting taxes by cutting marginal tax rates by 20% across the board. But Romney also promises to reduce the deficit. In order to simultaneously cut taxes and reduce the deficit, Romney is going to have to cut spending. A lot of […]
“The U.S. team has swept all the medals in the skeet shooting event. So despite our bad economy, it’s nice to know our country has never been safer from an attack of skeets.” – Conan O’Brien “Naturally the U.S. trails in gold medals because every time we win one, we hand it over to the […]
I don’t have a problem with Mitt Romney being rich. I have a problem with him lying about being rich. Back during the primary, Romney kept getting in trouble for acting snobbishly rich. Like when he talked about his friends who owned NASCAR teams, but especially when he tried to make a $10,000 bet with […]
Good luck pinning him down. And even if you do, he’ll just say the opposite in a day or two. He’s the ultimate generic candidate. And he loves everything, except vampires.
“All in all a successful trip. Best of all, Romney has checked three countries off the list of ‘1000 Places To Offend People Before You Die’.” – Stephen Colbert “A dozen swimming events have already been completed in the Olympic competition. I wonder where they got the name ‘Speedo.’ It doesn’t sound like a bathing […]
Mitt Romney has earned a full-throated endorsement from famous porn star Jenna Jameson. While sipping champagne in the VIP room of a gentlemen’s club in San Francisco, Jameson told a television reporter: I’m very looking forward to a Republican being back in office. When you’re rich, you want a Republican in office. This endorsement is […]
“The word “sailing” sounds cool. It sounds better than “yachting,” which sounds like something Mitt Romney does in his indoor lake.” – Craig Ferguson “Equestrian and sailing are sports for people growing up on the mean streets of Connecticut.” – Craig Ferguson “Everything went smoothly at the sailing events today, except for the British team. […]
