Truth in Advertising #3
What if 'truth in advertising' really existed?

Confederate Scotsman Certified as the
World's Oldest Ted Kennedy Hater;
"I Began Hating Him in 1930, Two
Years Before He Was Born!"

Only seven months into his first term as President
of the United States, Barack Obama's opponents
had already begun to experience an acute shortage
of new nasty names to call him. Demand for fresh
terms of opprobrium far exceeded the supply,
thus leaving his opponents with only one,
very unpopular option: Invective Rationing.

"Whaddya mean I'm too 'photogenic' to
appear on Bloggingheads.tv? I'm not any
more photogenic than Megan McArdle!"

If he had had one, Chuck Grassley would have
pulled the plug on his Grandma long ago. That's
just the way he was.

William F. Buckley, Jr.

"The central question that emerges . . . is whether the
White community in the South is entitled to take such
measures as are necessary to prevail, politically and
culturally, in areas in which it does not prevail numerically?
The sobering answer is Yes – the White community is so
entitled because, for the time being, it is the advanced
race. It is not easy, and it is unpleasant, to adduce
statistics evidencing the cultural superiority of White
over Negro: but it is a fact that obtrudes, one that
cannot be hidden by ever-so-busy egalitarians
and anthropologists."

Flag Desecration #22

The Iraqi shoe thrower, who had been jailed for
good behavior, has been released from jail early
for the same reason: good behavior.

"Let us not forget the Eleventh Commandment, Rick:
'Thou shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican'."

"Or the Twelfth, Kay: 'The Governor of Texas is exempt
from the Eleventh Commandment'."

"Activia gives me the shits, just like Glenn Beck!"

How Andrew Breitbart Imagined His Passing
Would Be Commemorated Some Day

How His Passing Was Actually Commemorated

When you first see Peter Kirsanow, this question
immediately comes to mind: "Where's Muttley?"

"My appearance to the contrary notwithstanding,

I am not undead."

"Every time you wear Boss #6, Charlie, I know you
have something really big for me in mind!"

If you had a chin as weak as Bob Owens',
you might be a Confederate Yankee, too.

Regardless of the outcome of the current free-for-all
over health care reform, one thing's for damn sure:
one hundred years from now, everyone on every side
of the controversy will be dead and gone. Some of
you may find this prospect comforting.

Proponents of Health Care Reform Considering
Renaming 'Public Option' as Either 'Fountain
of Youth Option', 'Eternal Life Option', or
'Wall-to-Wall Pussy Option'

"I don't care that you've bitten the dust.
That's even more reason for you to floss
at least once a day."

A valuable lesson we've learned from this summer's
health-care-reform town halls is how dangerous it
would be to live in a country that's a democracy.

In print, Lt. Col. Ralph Peters sounds like
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman. In person,
he looks like Percy Dovetonsils.

Does anybody know why we don't have
health insurance companies with names
like BlueHammer/BlueSickle, Iranigroup,
Inhumana, and FragmentedHealth?

"I would be happy to introduce you to Jonathan Chait,
but you need to tell me which version: 1.0, 2.0, or
3.0 Beta."

"How much is that Blue Doggy in the window?"
"Oh, about $1,500 a month."

"Nah, you can only lease it with
an option to buy in 2010."

Ex-Stanford CFO James M. Davis Pleads Guilty in Fraud Case,
Regales His Pals with Tales of Sir Allen Stanford and His
$8 Billion Ponzi Scheme

Over a span of three hours, Andrew Breitbart called
Ted Kennedy a 'villain', 'a big ass motherf@#$er',
a 'duplicitous bastard', a 'prick', and 'a special pile
of human excrement'. And that was while he was
still sober.

Look at the world through the prism of Fox News, Rush
Limbaugh, and the Drudge Report every day, and in no
time you, like Bob Collier, will be singing,
"Money, get back.
I'm all right jack keep your hands off of my stack.
Money, its a hit.
Don't give me that do goody good bullshit."

Larry Summers was next in line to succeed
Ben Bernanke as head of the Federal Reserve.
But he overslept.

did that happen?
