“North Korea may not have enough money to preserve the body of Kim Jong Il. Unfortunately, this leaves North Koreans with only one alternative: Kim Jong jerky. … You heard of Slim Jims? How about Slim Kims?” – Conan O’Brien “The family is saying now that in lieu of flowers for Kim Jong Il, they […]

I personally have nothing against Christmas, but I love a good rant. And when Christopher Hitchens passed away recently, the world lost a ranter par excellence. I’m going to miss him. So here is a reprint of a famous Hitchens anti-Christmas rant, first published in Salon in 2005. Bah, Humbug The horrors of December in […]

After the 2010 midterm elections, the Republicans declared that their top priority was creating jobs. Mike Stanfill started keeping a list of all Republican Congressional activity, to see if the Republicans were telling the truth. As Stanfill notes, the fact that his list “has reached its currently imposing length without one anecdotal citation of new […]

“North Korean leader Kim Jong Il died of a heart attack. No one knows what triggers it. He had a lot of money riding apparently on the Denver Broncos so he was pretty upset.” – Conan O’Brien “Kim Jong Il, the crazy leader of North Korea who hates us, passed away over the weekend. And […]

© Eric Perlin I expect that at some point the Republicans will launch a disinformation campaign to convince everyone that Obama is going to easily win reelection. That will both keep potential Obama voters away from the polls, and will energize their base. Count on it. By the way, the above comic was created using […]

Talk about Christmas presents from the Republican Party! And it just keeps getting better and better. Early this morning, the Virginia Republican Party announced that only two candidates had fulfilled the requirements to be on the primary ballot in Virginia. Those two candidates are Mitt Romney and Ron Paul. That’s right, Newt Gingrich didn’t make […]

© Lee Judge It is the gift that keeps on giving. Even after the primary is over, when the presidential election rolls around it will be fun watching the anointed GOP candidate walk back every crazy thing he or she said in order to secure the nomination from the party base.

“Last night Rick Perry compared himself to Tim Tebow. The difference? Tim Tebow actually has a prayer.” – Jay Leno “A movie called ‘The Artist’ got six nominations. It’s a silent movie where people’s mouths move but nothing comes out. It’s like Rick Perry at a debate.” – Craig Ferguson “USA Today reports that the […]

Ironically, Rachel Maddow is shocked about Obama’s Christmas Card. But that’s ok, Fox News and Sarah Palin are on the job pointing out this latest blatant attack on Christmas. How dare Obama!? Personally, I can’t decide if this is merely shoddy reporting on the part of Fox News, or if they are going to attack […]

“A new poll shows that, for the very first time, voters that view President Obama unfavorably outnumber those who view him favorably. In fact, if he gets any more unpopular, legally, he might have to run as a Republican.” – Jay Leno “Ron Paul, of all people, is surging in the polls. When Mitt said, […]

© Clay Bennett On Wednesday, Representative Stenny Hoyer (D-MD) tried to call a vote in the House to extend the payroll tax cut to middle class and working Americans. But the Republicans would have nothing of that. They ignored Hoyer’s motion, and instead adjourned the House (just moments after it went into session) and then […]
