Liveblogging More of This Crap (Obama’s Important Thing On TeeVee, Part II)
by Ken Layne
This is what it was like in Soviet USSR Russia, we bet! The guy, on the teevee, every night. Five year plans, advancing upon the enemy stronghold, great progress made in the Martian Dirt Wars, etc. We don’t know FOR SURE about this, as we arrived in the USSR about two weeks after it officially [...]

Even though she may not ever concede, Barack Obama says: “Tonight I can stand here and say, that I will be the Democratic nominee, for the United States of America.” That should be worth some interesting discussion and freakouts, no?
BREAKING NEWS LITTLE SIREN GIF: Barack has got the Power, and the Delegates …. Well, what have we learned, tonight, other than that your editor has a “drinking problem” due to having some drillings/fillings done on his own teeth an hour ago? We’ve learned that Maverick RINO McCain wants to hate fuck the war until [...]
Well, your pretend boyfriend Barack Obama made it all the way to Oregon via, uh, Iowa. Des Moines, in fact. That’s where he gave a Big Speech an hour or so back, and you can read the liveblog here. The important question is how terribly will Obama beat Hillary in Oregon? And how will it [...]
