Who is Contacting Me? Trinidad Navarro, That’s Who

“I’m Gonna Pop A Cap In That Bitch’s Ass” – Mike Castle

I’m paraphrasing, but Castle has been forced to go all wingnut, and no matter what happens, that is good news for Chris Coons. I had been thinking that I could not root for Crazy Christine, but I’ve reconsidered. Here is why…

Tuesday’s Asshat of the Day

We’ve already honored the self-ordained preacher in Florida who plans on burning copies of the Koran this coming Saturday, and now he’s going to ignore the pleas of the general in charge of our efforts in Afghanistan. Oh well, once an asshat, always an asshat. As Keith Olbermann pointed out, where is the [...]

NYT Throws O’Donnell a Bone

Probably some liberal media conspiracy at work, but the NYT decided to treat O’Donnell like an actual candidate.
“Even if she should have money problems,” (a supporter) Mrs. Beams said later, “I don’t think there’s too many in this world that hasn’t had money problems.”

Monday’s Asshats of the Day

Today’s award goes to the Aryan Nations, that group of boy scouts who are hell-bent on saving the United States from the “mud people.” What are mud people? Glad you asked. The AN believe that mud people are anyone who is not white, is not Protestant, is not Anglo-Saxon. They hate [...]

Bengals Coach Marvin Lewis could have a season worthy of a Disney/ESPN/ABC movie. With Terrell Owens, Chad Ochocinco and the rookies Jordan Shipley and Jermaine Gresham, quarterback Carson Palmer only needs to put the ball in the air and let someone run underneath it. They’ve got a great defense coming back [...]
