Why do people suddenly step down from their positions well after their controversy news cycle is over? Perhaps we will never know, but here’s another example of this phenomenon: Virginia Thomas, wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, has given up control of her Teabagger group, Liberty Central (who apparently, based on that name, want [...]

Isn’t it great to have our previous president back in the news these days? How about this one: He lifted passages of his book out of other people’s books and news articles? Yes, he did! Or rather, whoever was putting together his book did. Hey, c’mon, why would Bush want to remember stuff himself? It’s [...]

Teabaggers from Arizona are a special breed and are continually winning the craziest-Teabagger national championship, so it should come as no surprise that they have come out in full force against a town’s decision to hire one trash truck and start a curbside recycling program. This is socialism, of course, because a government hiring a [...]

Are you headed to Washington for the big comedy rally we are having in lieu of possessing any grand ambition, moral beliefs or personal dignity? Hooray, hope you like Sheryl Crow a lot! Also: Hope you don’t get shot by the armed & dangerous lunatic firing on anything he thinks is a U.S. Marine or [...]

Michelle Obama is really stepping up her game when it comes to battling childhood obesity, probably because the battle isn’t going too well so far. Kids around the country are fearfully clinging to giant bags of Cheetos, right now, because Uncle Glenn’s Chalkboard said the Evil FLOTUS is going to steal the American Constitution’s right [...]

Afghanistan always seemed like a fine place to make one’s fortune, what with its colorful poppy fields, rich and varied traditions of sculpture and architecture, and snow leopards slinking in and out of mountain caves. Exotic and fun, right? But your reviewer just learned that there’s some kind of war going on over there right [...]

Unemployed Americans have been toiling in front of their MS Paint computer screens all day long, trying to think up ways to help Alaska remember Lisa Murkowski’s impossibly difficult-to-remember name. We were not even a little bit surprised to discover you all have way too much time to waste between bong rips, and also that [...]

Wisconsin Attorney General Ken Kratz is stepping down because he got a little too frisky with one of his witnesses, but really, what’s the point of being a victim’s advocate if you can’t get a little tail from the nymphets on the side? Two weeks ago, Kratz apologized at a press conference for sending personal [...]

“The Politico” comes through with the latest hot Sarah Palin scoop: Sarah Palin was on teevee (this is obviously not the “scoop”) — on Fox News, to be exact (wait for it …) — and announced, between deep sighs and painful wheezy sounds, that she would be forced to run for president if no one [...]

Governor Rick Perry of the Sovereign Nation of Texas wanted to meet with Barack Obama today, because like many of us he thinks the Prez is smokin’ hot and also he wanted to discuss beefing up security on our porous-border. But our Commander-in-Crushworthiness, who is visiting Ft. Bliss, has snubbed the old queen, says Fox [...]

“Glenn Beck,” a longtime collaborative performance art project run by a team of situationist pranksters, has moved into its next phase! Not content with posting dadaist nonsense on the GlennBeck.com URL — so on the nose! — the team acquired TheBlaze.com (the name refers to the power of flame to cleanse away man’s attempt to [...]

Thank God (not Allah) that we have Charles Krauthammer to lead the hearts and minds of our country. Krauthammer, you will be shocked to learn, considering that kind face of his, is against the conversion of that Manhattan Burlington Coat Factory to a mosque. (All the 9/11 families say it should be a Big Lots, [...]

Nevada scribe Sharron Angle believes that the color black is satanic! Or at least she used to, before her campaign advisers started telling her to appear more “tolerant.” Senator Harry Reid also is satanic, which is why he’s making t-shirts with this design, which mocks Angle for once campaigning against black high-school football jerseys full [...]

Genitals are, of course, the “hidden victims” of all of America’s many wars (“hidden” because American soldiers all wear pants, like good Christians). While much fancy technology has been used to protect the head and torso parts of your typical U.S. soldier or Marine, our culture’s outdated shame code has led our military-industrial complex to [...]

When Barack Obama was born in Kenya 16 years ago, abortion wasn’t legal, so his parents weren’t able to get rid of their child. Jesus smiled, because he likes all babies, even socialist ones who want to destroy America. But now that ObaMao has illegally taken power in the U.S., he has decided to force [...]
