This is indeed turning into a strange election season, made even more strange by the news out of Georgia: looks like incumbent Republican and Bush rubber-stamp Saxby Chambliss has an actual race on his hands.
For those unacquainted with the delightful Sen. Chambliss, he’s the one who unseated incumbent Democratic Senator and actual war hero Max [...]
The more Democratic nooks of Blogtopia (yes, Skippy coined that phrase) are all a-twitter about new West Virginia poll results that shows Obama up 8 points — indeed, hardly ten minutes goes by without a brand-spanking-new utterly breathless BREAKING!!1!!!!ZOMG!!!! diary on dKos trumpeting what has already been trumpeted ad nauseum. Even more sober-minded and cautious [...]
In an effort to seem relevant, John McCain’s campaign announced that they would have big news sometime this morning, but they couldn’t talk about what it was. After all of McCain’s crazy stunts I thought it would be that he was going off to hunt down bin Laden, or personally buying off every bad [...]
XKCD recently published the above comic, Listen to Yourself. YouTube has already made the concept a reality. There is now an optional audio preview button present when users are submitting a comment on a video. Time will tell whether idiots will have a moment of self reflection when they hear themselves.
All hail Randall Monroe.
Barack Obama and Joe Biden have essentially dared John McCain to make the Ayers accusations to Obama’s face. The next opportunity for McCain to do so would be the presidential debate focusing on the economy. Obama could win a debate on the economy by showing up and taking a nap on stage. John McCain doesn’t [...]
Sheriff Tom Dart of Cook County, Illinois announced yesterday that he will no longer serve foreclosure eviction notices. Dart feels that the lenders sending his employees out to serve evictions haven’t done enough work on their end to find out who is living in the property being foreclosed. Landlords who have not informed their tenants [...]
Blogger Interrupted has a video of McPalin supporters showing up to a rally in Strongsville, Ohio. Many volunteer to speak on camera which shows right away that they’re definitely not the brightest of the bunch. Though I’m not a fan of the forceful way the interview asks each person straight out if they think Obama’s [...]
There’s a new short film out from Brave New Films called “John McCain’s Rage“. More than 30 people- including citizens, journalists and those in the government and military- have testified about experiences they’ve had with McCain’s rage. These experiences include an incident where McCain shoved a woman against a wall outside his office. This well [...]
This etsy-based shop caters to a particular aesthetic that I know has some detractors but that I thoroughly enjoy: a neo-Victorian and at times steampunk sensibility. But Vintage Filigree Jewels does so with pieces that are exquisitely detailed and without losing touch of classic design standards. These read as carefully composed tiny [...]
I posted earlier this week about the comments made by the sheriff of Lee County, Florida during a speech at a Sarah Palin rally. Sheriff Mike Scott, in uniform, called the Democratic presidential candidate “Barack Hussein Obama”. He did not call either Palin or John McCain by their full name. This selective usage combined with [...]
