Ha ha, remember when Robert Gibbs said that the Democrats would probably lose control of Congress, if they didn’t shape up? Well, it appears that this news eventually filtered back to the Democrats who still (for the moment) run the House, particularly one Nancy Pelosi, and she and they are pissed and will cut a [...]
Did you know that in San Francisco Republicanism is not (yet) punishable by literal, physical death? Social death, sure, that goes without saying, you will be mocked and derided and nobody will have gay sex with you (or if they do they will make fun of you about it, later). And yet these brave souls [...]
Whoah hey a House-Senate conference committee stayed up all night and came up with a compromise version of the financial reform bill! Does it contain a substantive section on derivatives reform? Well, “banks and their parent companies [must] segregate much of their derivatives activities into a separately capitalized subsidiary,” so, we’ll say … sure, maybe.
Woman politician “Madam Speaker” Nancy Pelosi is doing woman things again! Like, spending too much money, dagnabbit. She’s spending $18,736 per month on a fancy suite of offices in San Francisco — liberal San Francisco, of all places — and that’s (according to Roll Call) nearly twice as much as the next-most-expensive district office rent, [...]
We know that it’s not easy being a gay Republican! We can ignore the fact that the Republican Party, as a policy, would rather that gays not exist, or that, if they do exist, their emotional attachments not be given any recognition by any level of government whatsoever; people will do some crazy stuff for [...]
Liberal Speaker of the House Nancy “the Fancy” Pelosi got the shout-down treatment at the Campaign for America’s Future conference yesterday, and by fellow liberals! Pelosi only wanted to thank everyone for helping to get the ObamaCare program passed, but had to endure yelling and maybe even some crap thrown at her? Is this how [...]
As a stunned America begins to prepare itself for an Arlen Specter-free future, we all must ask ourselves: What killed Arlen Specter? Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell knows! “‘The rain killed Arlen,’ Mr. Rendell said dejectedly. ‘Whatever chance he had went down with the rain.’” It is a well-known fact that old people shouldn’t go out [...]
Nancy Pelosi called a little press conference the other day, to show off some “energy-saving” light fixtures recently installed in one of the House lunchrooms. These fancy new lights are tricked out with motion sensors and sunlight-controlled window shades, and will reduce the government’s light bill by at least $41 dollars over the next decade, [...]
Poor old Tom Coburn was a wingnut proto-teabagger Republican Hero until the other day, when he went INSANE and told a crowd of morons they should maybe not be so hateful and personal about politics, when reasonable people can disagree, etc., and Nancy Pelosi is actually a “nice lady.” Wonkette op-art contributor Lauri Apple takes [...]
It should come as no surprise to you that there are some people in this country who really want to kill the shit out of Nancy Pelosi. There are probably many different reasons: some want to kill her because she is a woman in Congress, some because she passed a bill ordering AIDS to be [...]
Tom Coburn used to be one of the most conservative senators in the senate, but now that is over. He is a liberal, a communist, and a lesbian, starting this afternoon. Mostly a lesbian, an old lesbian. What he did is tell the folks at a recent town hall that Nancy Pelosi is a “nice [...]
Cable channel Fox News needs content for its website, but of course Fox News stories consist of some video clips from a space movie, a weird chart with random numbers, and a couple of words like “socialist.” Tough to turn that into a few paragraphs on a web page. And that’s why America’s sad old [...]
Happy 70th Birthday, Madame Speaker! You get to sign this companion Health Care Reform bill, for a present! Also, for a super-great present, you look about 50 years old, while John McCain looks like some bloated 1,000-year-old mummy failure dug up from a bog. Oh look Nancy is going to sign this thing on the [...]
