I will personally hold every person in Massachusetts in contempt if this happens:
The Bloody Sock goes to Washington

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised by this kind of crap anymore, but I am still disgusted.  It is tough for us Democrats to declare ownership of the moral high ground when Democratic blue-state governors keep publicly demonstrating their sleeziness.  First Spitzer, now this:
Illinois Governor arrested in Obama successor probe
At least you can argue that [...]

Let’s review the electoral predictions (Obama EVs):
Tito - 403
Mikey - 360
Schmitter - 338
Blondie - 379
Rev. Dick - 385
Hildegard - 392
Brixton - 330

Four years ago, following the disastrous defeat of John Kerry, my son-in-law blamed that defeat on me (on this very blog). Well, not on me exactly but on the people I hang out with and work with. (I am a professor at an evangelical theological seminary.)  What could I say? The demographic data was clear [...]

If I could send myself back four years to the morning after watching Kerry concede to Bush, I would find myself some celebrating Republicans and say a few things:
Four years from now there will still be no WMDs and your party will still have us in this war.  Yes, they will.
Four years from now the [...]

Well now you pinkos have done it. In a couple months Black Panthers and Bolsheviks will be putting their feet up on the Oval Office furniture.
I’m going to have to take down the Stars & Stripes flying out front and replace them with an Islamic Crescent flag in honor of our first ‘Muslin’ president.
Well [...]
