Early-onset dementia victim Rick Perry managed to flub a basic question in his only known area of expertise, “gay stuff,” after a town hall participant asked him to explain how he manages to reconcile his constant, vapid harping about limited government with his public opposition as Texas governor to the 2003 Supreme Court case that [...]
Oh, here’s a tragedy: Minnesota’s (now former) Senate Majority Leader Amy Koch had been working so hard on a constitutional amendment barring same-sex marriage in her state, but ALAS, the amendment couldn’t be approved in time to keep her own straight marriage safe from harm — she resigned her Senate leadership post last week after [...]
Adults have never had much luck talking so much as a faint glimmer of sense into Michele Bachmann, so maybe someone smarter but a little closer to her own intellectual ilk can finally reach her? Eight-year-old Elijah came with his mom to an Occupy Myrtle Beach gathering at one of Bachmann’s book signings to let [...]
The loony hillbillies of the Maine GOP have had a hard time convincing residents to back them in their opposition to a statewide referendum measure that would permit Election Day voter registration, so their latest strategy has them running ads ominously informing the citizenry IN SCREAMING ALL CAPS that anyone who supports the measure, known [...]
Victimiest most victimized ever victim Rick “The President of Victims” Santorum has had a rough time carrying out his life’s mission as an unrepentant homophobic bigot, because his consistent dehumanizing attacks on gay people forced them to start a gay jihad against him (funny how war works, isn’t it, Rick?) that makes filthy results pop up top [...]
Wait, what? It finally happened? “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell” is officially over today and is now and forever just one of America’s most cherished, tender Clinton-era memories (right up there with the Monica Lewinsky scandal and Robert Rubin’s banking deregulation spree). Yep, today! Started at midnight! You’d have hardly noticed — where is the screaming? [...]
North Carolina’s unemployment rate of 10.1% is worse than the national average by a full percentage point, which interestingly also ranks them even worse than Alabama. It is basically super humiliating to rank below Alabama in anything, so North Carolina lawmakers need something to raise North Carolina’s self-esteem. What’s an easy one? “What about one [...]
What’s a good word for when people you constantly talk smack about pull Internet pranks on you all day long to mock you for your delusional bigotry? “Jihad,” according to sad terror victim Rick Santorum, who used this word that normally means “an insane religious justification used by fringe extremist Muslims to murder people they [...]
There is some other GOP presidential candidate we never actually even heard of named Fred Karger, but he is according to some poll tied with Tim Pawlenty, which feels about right. Karger is also one of the vanishingly rare openly gay Republicans people hear about on quiet days when the wind is still, which means [...]
Rick Perry recently skipped Texas, where there is an epic drought engulfing 90% of the state, so that he could tell social conservatives at a GOP donor sleepover party in Aspen (ahem) that the recent passage of a gay marriage bill in New York was its own business, states rights, etc. Then, here’s a little [...]
