There is a fierce competition at foot to figure out who can blame the shooting in Arizona on the dumbest thing. Is it Sarah Palin’s fault because she put up a map with gun sights on it this one time, because she is a terrible person who hates for people to understand/get along with each [...]

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has a convention coming up in Kansas City, and a resolution will be introduced to call Teabaggers racist, because why not? Seems pretty valid, as many Teabaggers do seem to be rather racist. A LITTLE LATE, but valid. Teabagger leaders cannot believe this, though. THEM, TEABAGGERS, [...]

Constantly fired conservative David Frum is throwing an ironical party for himself, after his latest firing from the American Enterprise Institute, where his liberal “we should negotiate in good faith with the majority party” views didn’t please prospective donors. He is now very unemployed, having only five or six regular columnist jobs. And what about [...]

AEI IS GAY FOR OBAMACARE? From Bruce Bartlett, another ex-supply-side wingnut turned resident of Planet Earth: “Since [David Frum] is no longer affiliated with AEI, I feel free to say publicly something he told me in private a few months ago. He asked if I had noticed any comments by AEI ‘scholars’ on the subject [...]

During and after the 2008 election, former Bush speechwriter David Frum criticized his party for being insane and not caring about policy, for which he was fired from the National Review. During and after the 2009-2010 Health Care Battle, David Frum criticized his party for being insane and not caring about policy. Who was able [...]

After posting zero twats since March 8, when he ordered everyone to watch his historically important Eric Massa interview, Glenn Beck returned to the Twitter yesterday to produce these valuable insights. (The link just goes to audio of the Howard Beale rant from Network, a movie about how corporate media exploits people’s fears for profit.)

Erick Erickson harvested a mighty army of orcs and then instructed them to purchase 1200 pounds of rock salt as a special present for traitorous Maine-witch Olympia Snowe. But will Senator Snowe take the hint and melt? [RedState] The Republican Insurgency Manifesto. [Ace of Spades] How easy would it be to bribe Glenn Beck? David [...]

Oh boy oh boy the GOP Death-Fart Ultimate Fighting Murder Match continues! David Frum, annoying former George W. Bush speechwriter but generally inoffensive conservative, uses the pages of Newsweek to kick a couple of new assholes in Rush Limbaugh, because why not? Frum’s mouth-breathing detractors will note that he’s no longer officially a wingnut because [...]

It was only a matter of time before the The New Republic stopped being an inevitability in this little feature. Well, the time has come—just one week in! Let’s take a look what worthwhile things are afoot in these storied pages this week, for our new feature, Thursdays Are For Magazines.

Have you ever been at a party and had a swell time drinking fancy drinks with nifty folks and suddenly you look up, it’s 3:30 in the morning, all the cool kids have gone home, and you’re stuck on a pee-stained couch drinking vodka and milk cocktails with a pimpled, silent loser pawing your knee? [...]

Will a single Republican stand up for John McCain, please? (And we’re not talking about you dumb-ass rednecks masturbating furiously to Sarah Palin’s tattooed lip liner; we mean the people with money.) Today, Bush speechwriter and conservative mealy mouth David Frum writes in the Washington Post that McCain is a total failure who is also [...]

Then he says Rachel Maddow should [...]
