The Cohen…It Does Nothing!
Richard Cohen is the dumbest motherfucker alive. After spending the first half of his column excoriating Obama for his rejection of public financing (again – a decision which, in our Elite Pundit world, was an utterly monumental blow to his credibility and for the people that are actually going to…
The Bomb Shit Doctrine
It seems as if the basic neocon doctrine towards Iran is that it’s foolish to try anything more complex than bombing them, lest we get bombed first. Of course, if we bomb them, then they won’t bomb us back, because they’ll be double scared of bombing. But if we don’t…
Don’t Punch The Unicorn
I think my favorite part of this segment is when the host says, “This is John McCain we’re talking about!” John McCain is a magical war shaman, as all Republicans are, and the idea of someone saying he hasn’t actually led a large organization or developed war policy is like,…
John McCain Will Stop Some Other Globe From Warming
During the Republican primary, John McCain made a big to-do about how he was going to tackle global warming head-on. “I will clean up the planet,” McCain said. “I will make global warming a priority.” McCain often says that he wants to reduce dependence on foreign oil and that he…
Do You Believe In Magic?
Lieberman as McCain’s Veep? You don’t say! The problem with McCain’s veep search is the same problem the GOP had in the primary – choosing from among a group of clowns will ultimately net you the least clownish clown. I think that there’s a 50/50 chance that Lieberman is the…
Just why would we get the idea that he’s McSame?
This is brilliant. The Jed Report has a mashup of the obliteration of John McCain…by John McCain on whether he’s hand-in-glove with Dear Leader. And here is today’s WTF moment by McCain, via The Carpetbagger Report: “I will look you in the eye and promise you that I will get…
Straight talk – McCain this and that
Let’s start off with comedy… Gingrich compares McCain to Abe Lincoln. Now that’s balls. Five dollar bills around the country are igniting as we speak. In an interview with GQ magazine yesterday, former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich compared Sen. John McCain’s (R-AZ) effort to rally support around his…
McCain VP short-lister Bobby Jindal’s exorcist work
The very young governor of Louisiana is allegedly on John McCain’s VP shortlist, but this little bit of news should tank his prospects for selection. Bobby Jindal, the 36-year old governor of Louisiana, is being taken seriously by the national press as a candidate on the shortlist to be John…
G*d damn. Can we afford a computer illiterate doofus as POTUS?
Sorry to bring up this guy again, but this is the living end. After posting about McSame’s idiotic reference to his campaign using “a Google” to vet his VP candidates, I come across this video (from early on in GOP primary) that I hadn’t seen. If anything should disqualify a…
More Ribs, Please
Ruh-roh. Openly frustrated by what they see as an ongoing double standard in the press’s treatment of his campaign, Sen. John McCain and his aides have been aggressively denouncing unfavorable stories as “smear jobs” and “scurrilous attacks,” while the candidate himself has launched a series of stinging attacks on Sen.…
