© Tom Tomorrow The media seems to be slowly waking up to the fact that they can’t just ignore the Wall Street Protestors. So they are making fun of them or insulting them instead. Ironically, many of the criticisms of the protests are the same ones that were leveled against the Tea Party movement, but […]
The Democratic National Committee has created a brutal website WhichMitt.com that shows up some of Mitt Romney’s more egregious flip-flops, using only his own words (including video). As Politico puts it “It’s not just what he says, but the total forcefulness and sincerity with which he says it.” Here’s just one example — Romney on […]
“Sarah Palin will not run for president, which is good news for Palin-haters, but bad news for the moose population.” – Jimmy Kimmel “Sarah Palin announced she’s not running. Finally, a Palin who pulls out before it’s too late.” – Jay Leno “Are you telling me that driving around the country in a bus with […]
Jon Stewart interviews Michael Lewis, who talks about the new third world — countries like Iceland and Greece that have gone broke — and the funny and ironic ways it happened. Watch both parts:
[Written by Fred Wickham, reposted from Bullseye Rooster] My debate plan. I can share this because I know no Republican candidates, nor their staffs, will be reading my blog.

“Chris Christie announced that he will not run for president. I don’t think you have to announce that, I think you just don’t run.” – Jimmy Kimmel ”Christie made a big announcement this afternoon. I haven’t watched it yet because I don’t want to know. I’m going to pretend he announced that he’s the new […]
Why do the Wall Street protestors need a spokesperson? It seems pretty obvious why they are protesting. The other panel members were Republicans. For most of the show, Alan just sat quietly, which really surprised and disappointed me. Then suddenly, he let them have it. It was great. I just wish that the camera had […]

After completely ignoring the “Occupy Wall Street” protests, finally someone at the New York Times seems to get it (albeit in an opinion piece, not in the regular news): Indeed, the twin drivers of America’s nascent protest movement against the financial sector are injustice and invisibility, the very grievances that drove the Arab Spring.

“Rick Perry is pretty serious about running for President. Today he freed all of the slaves on his ranch. Did you hear about that?” – Jay Leno “Not looking good for Perry.
