By the Comics CurmudgeonReaders! Are you aware that each and every one of you are mortal, and will die? I know, pretty depressing, right? Even worse than the dying — which, by all accounts, doesn’t sound like any kind of picnic — is the fact that, by sheer chance of health or age, millions upon [...]
There being a massive natural disaster killing or hurting thousands or millions of poor people yesterday, Pat Robertson responded naturally this morning, by blaming it on those specific poor people and their worship of Satan — all under the guise of a Disaster Relief Fundraiser.
Hey guys, nevermind, you don’t have to bother asking God to forgive our nation anymore while everyone else in the room moans, Michele Bachmann just took care of that. Oh and also, you don’t need to shout-pray in your raspiest whine for God to kill the Senate health care bill anymore either, some other crazy [...]
Oh goodie, it’s another edition of “minor Southern political figures typing on the Internet about Barack Obama.” The thick head of hair over here, Mayor Russell Wiseman of Memphis suburb Arlington, got all hot and bothered on his Facebook the other night during the death speech: “Ok, so, this is total crap, we sit the [...]
Here we have the most recent entry from smarmy hippopotamus Rick Warren’s Twitter page, the rest of which is SO. GRATING. GAHH. (Example: “If God says 2 things that appear contradictory, both are true.The problem is U trying to fit God into ur theological box.” Fuck does that mean? Just shutup, right?) Rick Warren is [...]
Homophobic fat-butt Mr. Pastor Rick Warren likes to do one thing and that is to lie. He’s a lot like that other guy, Lanny Davis: they both cultivate images of themselves as non-partisan peacebrokers, but when you point out that they’re really just self-centered establishment whores looking out for their own professional interests at all [...]
Here’s an interesting wingnut concept: if you claim to be rejecting “political correctness,” then whatever you’re saying must be the truth, as they are opposites. For example: Pat Robertson rejects political correctness w/r/t the Ft. Hood killings. All clear! Therefore the truth must be this: Islam is “not a religion,” but “a violent political system [...]
Now why’d he do this: “Political observers across New York are asking today whether Erie County Executive Chris Collins has irreparably damaged his prospects for statewide office after he compared Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver to Adolf Hitler and an Antichrist during a Saturday speech in Buffalo.” The best part is that Sheldon Silver is a [...]
LIKE THE FARMER’S ALMANAC, BUT GOOD: Holy moly! We didn’t even bother to explore the rest of that burny church’s website at first, but it is nuts, man, it is a stone cold treasure, and we just hope someone in that asylum remembers to pay the Internets bill each month. [Amazing Grace Baptist Church: Sports [...]
One of the very very important court cases the Supreme Court is tackling during its first week back is Salazar vs. Buono, about “whether a 5-foot cross on federal government land in the Mojave National Preserve violates the Constitution’s Establishment Clause.” This dumb cross is a memorial to World War I, specifically, and it is [...]
Here’s a great new ad from the anti-gay-marriage amendment crusaders in whatever state is “doing that” now… ah, super gay Washington state. God and the Jesus made marriage for men and women, so they could fuck and have children and play in piles of leaves. How would you heteros like it in you’re splashing leaves [...]
‘The Jesus Painting Yesterday’ Produces Obama Campaign-esque Artistic Revival
by Jim Newell
Well how about this! Jacksonville artist David Durrett sends this “real painting” (super-sized) to your Wonkette and writes, “I love Wonkette, and was inspired to do an acrylic response to the Jesus painting yesterday! Hope you like it!!” Yes it is very nice! Maybe Obama can steal this one too, for his house. Also, we’re [...]
