the marriage of knaves who lie and fools
who believe them.

Like to count? If so, count the number of African-Americans,
Mexican-Americans, and Asian-Americans you see in this

"Dick Cheney, I'll never forget what you did on
behalf of the Mandrill Liberation Front! May
you live forever!"

For some reason, 'From Blunt to Sessions to Vitter'
never quite had the cachet as 'From Tinker to Evers
to Chance'.

today's Church of Scientology, who makes L. Ron Hubbard
and Dianetics sound like the second coming of Plato and
his immortal dialogues.

The Day Bambi Got Tasered

When will those who Twitter come to their senses and realize
that a 140-word-limit is much too long? Fearguth is looking
forward to the day when the attention span of the American
people will be so short that a one-word caption to a photo
of Dean Esmay being nuzzled by Z, his pet ferret, will be
considered the height of verbosity.

Sure, deploying the Green Lantern to Afghanistan won't
come cheap, but since American taxpayers will already
spend $65 billion over there this year alone, probably
no one will notice.

The story out of Washington is that only 'a handful of
Republicans' voted to confirm Sonia Sotomayor as a

Young America's Foundation spokesman Jason
Mattera says his favorite song is 'I Could Always
Eat Your Brain'.

George Paz, Chairman and CEO of Express Scripts,
has sent an email to all his employees, encouraging
them to oppose health care reform. That's not at all
surprising, given the fact that his total compensation
in 2008 was $12,774,367. If you were making that kind
of dough, would you want to change the status quo?

neoconservative and your children were
named Frederick, Robert, and Kimberly.

Having lost the ratings battle with Two Dudes
and a Webcam, Mouthpiece Theater has been
cancelled. Asked to comment on this hard-
earned reversal of fortune, Dana Milbank said,

I'm often surprised by the ferocity out there, but
I probably shouldn't be."

Is it live, or is it Charlie Crist?

"I guess he wasn't kidding when he said his
head was about to explode."

If there is such a thing as an ultimate nightmare, it might
be this: Jay Bybee, a federal judge dressed as a clown on
the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit,
torturing you by driving a tenpenny nail into your
funnybone.

When you look upon the visage of what some percipient
observer has called a 'stone-faced Okie gargoyle', you

"But if we’re going to pay 700 million dollars like we
voted last Friday to put condoms on wild horses,
and I know it just says an un-permanent enhanced

doing it to us down here in Tyler, Texas."

Marc Ambinder has been as successful defending GOP
astroturfing as he was putting lipstick on this pig

Now that he has persuaded North Korea to trade
two journalists for John Bolton and Michael Barone,
will Bill Clinton be able to persuade Iran to trade
three backpackers for Lou Dobbs, Glenn Beck and
Rush Limbaugh?
