threats
Southern California Nazis or whatever have painted graffiti in the Orange County town of Santa Ana informing new (again) Governor Jerry Brown that they will kill him next month. One message says “We’re gonna kill Gov. Brown 2/14/11″ and the other says “26 more days 4 Brown” and has a swastika instead of, we guess, [...]
Everyone knows the drill. The man allegedly began to make physically threatening gestures toward the officer, which prompted the officer to draw his gun and instruct the man to lay down on the ground. “He began to threaten the officer physically,” Morse told The Hill. “The officer took a defensive posture to thwart that aggressive [...]
U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton high-fived a bunch of illegal immigrants the other day and ruled against the parts of Arizona’s immigration law that would have made them melt. BUT NOW REAL AMERICA IS ANGRY. You see, “some of the messages sent to Bolton are positive, but others are ‘from people venting and who have [...]
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 [...]
JUST LIKE IN THAT MOVIE, TWILIGHT: “WEST DEPTFORD — A 61-year-old South Jersey man is in custody after being arrested on charges he delivered a fake horse’s head to the Gloucester County office of Senate President Steve Sweeney.” God just CHILL FOR LIKE FIVE DAYS and they’ll fix your stupid property taxes, okay?

THIS WOULD EXPLAIN THE SHIFT TOWARDS CONFISCATION: See, it’s just like in our imaginations: “Local reports indicate that the practice of mailing actual tea bags to legislators has repeatedly raised security concerns, and sometimes forced the evacuation of congressional offices in anthrax-like scares.” Did you know that the actual “Republican Party” sanctions this? [HuffPo]
A Hill staffer informs us that the Congressional Mail Room Security People are starting to go Code Mango on all tea bag anthrax letters, which is a tragedy, because now staffers can’t send us comical photos of the tea bags (unless they’re faxes!) And no more free treats for these poor worker bees! There’s always [...]
This latest one, it is a Masterpiece. A House staffer sends us this image and writes, “This is what we get in the House… apparently we don’t warrant actual teabags like the Senate, just a good ol’ teabagging by fax.” Ha ha, the House will always just be the poor man’s Senate. But how remarkable [...]
