Even if Obama was born in Kenya, he still got 9.5 MILLION more votes than your guy. Suck it, Southern Republicans. http://bit.ly/V95I2

How is it possible that CNN spent the entire day talking about beer without mentioning the fact that Bud Light is disgusting?

In times as deperate as these, we need the Ron Paul blimp now more than ever.

I still haven’t seen Lou Dobbs’ birth certificate. I’m no conspiracy theorist, but what is Señor Dobbs hiding?

Faux News vs. CNN’s Twitter Guy

Sunday, July 26th, 2009

I’ve always thought Rick Sanchez was a douche (note to self : find a better word to overuse than “douche”), but he’s one of the few people at CNN still willing to call bullshit on ridiculous right-wing fantasies. Lately he’s gotten into a mini-feud with Fox News after slamming the network on his Twitter feed. Their (childish) response :

A Fox News spokesperson tells Mediaite: “Everyone knows that Rick is an industry joke, he shows that he’s a hack everyday. And he doesn’t have to worry about working at FOX because we only hire talent who have the ability to generate ratings.”

I can’t help but wonder if Fox is only hiring people “who have the ability to generate ratings”, maybe the reason Sanchez is an “industry joke” is because he’s in the news industry, not lightweight, anger-fueled info-tainment.

California’s Republicans would reach into the brains of children and steal their ability to read before raising taxes.

The “…between you and your doctor” lie is the most infuriating healthcare argument. Insurance co. bureaucrats don’t want the competition

On top of the obvious health concerns, drinking soda with every meal is a culinary sin. Kill your carbonated sugar water addiction.

I’ve already heard a lifetime’s worth of faux-populism this morning about how unfair it is to raise taxes on the wealthy. Cry me a river.

Seeing the Cronkite/JFK’s assassination clip reminds me how disappointed I was when CNN fired Aaron Brown. On 9/11, he was our Cronkite

Based on this morning’s questioning, I don’t think Sen. Coburn understands irony or (“as a physician”) schizophrenia.

Jake Tapper’s work at Salon ten years ago begs the questions “Who did he sell his soul to?” and “Can we buy it back?”

The MLB All Star game reminds me of Secret Wars. It *should* be awesome, but deep down you know the Beyonder is a dork.
