If there’s one thing Republicans love, it’s diversity: diversity of ways to obstruct legislation. A letter was sent to Harry Reid this morning and signed by all 42 Senate Republicans letting him know that he won’t be able to pass any legislation until he lets them extend the Bush tax cuts for really rich people. [...]
Republicans in the Senate are trying to lure a few Democrats into switching parties and giving them a majority, because apparently they want more responsibility for this crappy economy while not being able to get any of their dumb laws past Obama. First up on the list is apparently Joe Manchin, presumably because all you [...]
The Republican Party has taken a step back from their sweeping victory in America’s ultimate, #1, super repudiation of big government to wonder why, in fact, they didn’t take control of BOTH halves of our two-headed legislative branch; the answer to this conundrum can only be that Jim DeMint is a stupid face. Jim DeMint, [...]
Is this still happening? Has Rand Paul bankrupted America and outlawed blogging yet? We’re entering HOUR FOUR of this teabagstravaganza, and we’re still weeping for the loss of Our Christine (“You”) because comedy is going to be in short supply, forever, and she was our queen! Well whatever. At least John McCain won his easy-ass [...]
It’s 8 p.m. on the East Coast and probably midnight tomorrow on the Alaskan West Coast, so let’s begin the second awful installment of America’s favorite liberal moan temple, the Wonkette Midterms 2010 Liveblogging Challenge! So far, Republicans have won important Senate seats such as the Rand Paul seat and the Rob Portman seat. Will [...]
“Coons Camp Expresses Turnout Worries.” “Delaware Dems claim GOP intimidation by O’Donnell backers, worry over turnout.” OH C’MON, YOU GUYS. Don’t tell us this could actually happen. We refuse to believe Americans can actually elect this person to high federal office. Yes, these are Americans we are talking about, but give us a break. So [...]
Who is mackin’ on Christine O’Donnell here in this crappy bar somewhere with Philadelphia Eagles posters on the fake paneling? Why is she rocking the “sexy insect” costume? Didn’t she know Halloween is for Witches? Well, whatever masturbating happened on this night was of the “mutual” variety, according to the anonymous author of this Gawker [...]
Ah yes, in the epic battle of Fearful Podunk Nevada White v. Scary Mexicans On Security Tape In Gang Clothing, Harry Reid has joined up with the latter. And yet, Harry Reid looks like a normal white person? And yet he has not defunded these important green security cameras that are keeping our borders safe? [...]
YEAH! FILL IN THAT BUBBLE! YEAH! FILL IT UP! JOE MILLER THAT SHIT! This ballot could use more flannel and beard, though. [YouTube]
Sure, when you see Christine O’Donnell talking in debates about not knowing any Supreme Court cases or any current members of the Senate, you think, “There’s at least a 50% chance this woman is Jesus Christ incarnate.” But you didn’t think she’d actually admit it. Well, THINK AGAIN. In an interview with The 700 Club [...]
Alaskan teabagger hero Joe Miller ran away again when questioned about his service-connected disabilities, this time after a Sunday evening TV debate held at the Alaska Native Heritage Center Museum in Anchorage. The Republican candidate for Senate continued to ignore demands that he identify his service-connected disabilities and his official “percentage disabled.” How much is [...]
Alaskan Senate hopeful and semi-bearded teabagger Joe Miller literally ran away from a question about his disabled-veteran status during last night’s “Meet and Greet” session in Anchorage. In a roomful of 50 people — most supporters and well wishers — Miller was asked to identify his service-connected disability and his official “percentage disabled.” Panic swept [...]
