I Would Very Much Like to Say That Janeane Garofalo Has Lost Her Mind …

. . . but there isn’t much evidence that she was ever entirely sane: Last night, on failed MSNBC talk host Keith Olbermann’s new Current TV show (a network with less viewers than MSNBC), Janeane Garofalo said Herman Cain must be getting paid to run, has Stockholm Syndrome and that the Tea Party and Conservative […]

Attention, ‘Young Hotties’ Who Have Had Sex With a Certain Texas Governor

Ron Paul supporter Robert Morrow took out a newspaper ad seeking women who can expose Gov. Rick Perry as a hypocrite: HAVE YOU EVER HAD SEX WITH RICK PERRY? Are you a stripper, an escort, or just a “young hottie” impressed by an arrogant, entitled governor of Texas? . . . [W]e will help you […]

Blogging About Pathetic Perverts and Also Andrew Sullivan’s Sarah Palin Toe Fetish

Sarah Palin thronged by admirers during her Friday visit to the Iowa State Fair. HARTSELLE, Alabama Does the headline seem a tad redundant? Never mind.
