Jon Stewart Hands Marc Thiessen His Ass

Posted on 10 March 2010 by Kriss

So Marc Thiessen goes on the Daily Show and I guess he didn’t get the memo that being interviewed by Jon Stewart isn’t like getting a fluff job from Joe Scarborough.  Thiessen comes on the show with basic GOP talking points that Jon Stewart easily dismantled.  I particularly liked the part where Stewart set Thiessen [...]

Hate Crime & Anti-Discrimination Laws…Discriminating Against White Males

Posted on 10 March 2010 by Kriss

Sometimes I come across a story that is so asinine, words in the English language aren’t fit to describe it.  I came up with the word “TurdGargler” after I read what Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell and Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli are doing in their state. Turd Gargler 1 : Someone who spews so much bullshit, their [...]

Michele Bachmann Makes Stuff Up…Again

Posted on 04 March 2010 by Kriss

Seriously, this woman has no shame.  Either no shame or no brain…I’m trying to figure out which it is.  The Senate will not break its own rules if they pass health care reform by simple majority.  As Larry King pointed out, the Bush Tax cuts were passed this way.  Notice Bachmann glosses over that.  Also, [...]

Best Decision MSNBC Ever Made

Posted on 03 March 2010 by Kriss

Rachel Maddow is doing a great service here. Even more than her calling out GOP Senators for “taking brave stances against their own positions.” She also calls out the Washington Post for allowing Orin Hatch to write a completely false opt-ed with no fact checking. And I think that’s what makes Maddow [...]

How to be an Asshole in Congress For Dummies

Posted on 02 March 2010 by Kriss

Ever find yourself sitting at home, watching C-Span thinking “Man, I wish I could be in the Senate and completely fail at representing the people but still have an air of arrogance about me”?  Then you think to yourself that there’s no way you could ever be that huge of a douchebag.  Well no worry.  [...]

Clips From the Health Care Summit The Media Won’t Show

Posted on 26 February 2010 by Kriss

If the only part of the Health Care summit you saw yesterday was clips on the news or the analysis from pundits, then you would probably think that President Obama was “boorish” and that the only interesting parts were the exchanges between the President and Senator John McCain.  Truth is, there was a lot said [...]

Using Torture Means The CIA Was Using Cliffs Notes To Gather Intelligence

Posted on 25 February 2010 by Kriss

So the debate over “civilian terrorist trials” just might be the dumbest political debate we’ve had in recent memory.  Seriously, every time this debate comes up, part of my brain goes on strike from the human race.  The most outspoken person has been perennial dark sith lord Darth Cheney and his apprentice/daughter Liz Cheney.  Neither [...]

Keeping it Classy

Posted on 24 February 2010 by Kriss

Virginia State Delegate Bob Marshall (R) “says disabled children are God’s punishment to women who have aborted their first pregnancy,” reports the News Leader. Said Marshall: “The number of children who are born subsequent to a first abortion with handicaps has increased dramatically. Why? Because when you abort the first born of any, nature takes its [...]

The 30 Senators Who Voted Against Anti-Rape Amendment

Posted on 18 February 2010 by Kriss

Below are the names of the U.S. Senators (all Republican) that voted against Senator Al Franken’s “Anti-Rape” amendment in the 2010 Defense Appropriation Bill.  For background on this amendment, read up on the Jamie Leigh Jones case.  It’s actually quite sad that something like this needs to be stuck into a defense appropriation bill because [...]

Sarah Palin Tries to Explain Her Hypocrisy

Posted on 18 February 2010 by Kriss

I agree Palin.  When is enough enough?  Sarah Palin’s existence is no longer funny, it’s annoying.  First off, it’s Family Guy.  They’re inappropriate with everyone.  Hell, remember South Park and the “snuke” episode with Hilary Clinton?  I don’t remember any woman’s groups being invited on Fox News to discuss that.  Let it go.  These adult [...]
