Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.

Second rate reporter says what?

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

Consistently wrong since 2002

Make the republican party small enough to drown in a bathtub.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

Authoritarian republicans are opposed to freedom for the rest of us.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

People are complicated. Love is not.

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

Americans barely caring about Afghanistan is so last month.

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

“Yes, we are so stupid we believe anything we see on the internet.”

Sorry, folks, the “whitey” rant is all a hoax. However, I bet if you check with some more reputable sources, you can find the real truth about Obama’s gay affair with Larry Sinclair. Plus, I once heard a rumor Obama was a space alien. And before anyone gets too worked up, Johnny Cash didn’t actually kill a man in Reno just to watch him die.

I am sure it is just a coincidence that all these morons are McCain voters.

    Sorry, folks, the “whitey” rant is all a hoax.

    The link to Jake Tapper’s piece in that sentence leads to some pretty good comedy, not the least of which is Tapper counting down at the end of his article to what he figures is inevitable batshittery in the comments. And sure enough, right on his cue, the monkey feces flies in every direction. A few good chuckles, to be sure, but now I have to step away from the computer for a while and wash my hair and change my shirt.

    McCain is bringing up Ayers in the debate tonight.

    And so it ends, as America once again utters a collective "who is he talking about?".

    I am horrified at the utter ineptitude of McCain’s campaign and really gotta wonder who is calling the shots over there – playing to the base isn’t going to help his sagging numbers, and Ayers/Rezko/Wright isn’t getting any traction with the independents at all. Seemingly the opposite. I guess McCain can’t talk about the issues because he loses on those, but since that’s the case he might as well save a bit of cash and just concede tonight.

    And what is the evidence that the story is bogus? API stands by its story and says it will release the audiotape.

    The real blockbuster in this story is that Sotero adopted Obama in Indonesia. Since Obama’s mother was underage (according to US law), this would mean Obama thereupon lost his US citizenship (assuming he had it in the first place). This would be a constitutional disqualification of his candidacy.

    Not only do the wingers believe everything that they read on the internet, they have taken to weaving these disparate bits of spittle-flecked nonsense into tapestries of stupidity. It was the same back in the day when they convinced each other that Black Helicopters dispatched by the UN World Government were coming after them because they were such a threat.

    The comments at Tapper’s place are comedy gold. The anti-Obama tin-foil-asshats are ferociously jockeying for position after Tapper mocked the inevitability of their "insane comments" at the end of his post:

    The OBAMACRIMES website is an ILLUMINATI DISTRACTION!!

    Learn the real truth about Obama’s SECRET PLAN to introduce BLACK SOCIALISM to America! Time is running out!! None dare call it conspiracy!!

    Good point. We haven’t seen a shred of evidence that this story is bogus. I hope the Maverick finally takes the gloves off and mentions this article at least 15 times in the debate tonight. It’ll be the game-changer he needs.

    The real blockbuster in this story is that Sotero adopted Obama in Indonesia. Since Obama’s mother was underage (according to US law), this would mean Obama thereupon lost his US citizenship (assuming he had it in the first place).

    Oh – that’s a good one! Reading the wingnut fringe constitutional discussions for the next eight years is going to be fun. I was getting bored with the "income tax is unconstitutional" posts – time for some new lunacy.

    Colonel Danite

    I just hope that McCain and his campaign take the advice of the Nutters and go on the attack tonight. He should mention Ayers and Wright and Odinga and anyone else they can come up with. Obama will be able to compare his substantive campaign to the fear-mongering of his opponent.

    I think it’s hilarious that the Right Wing blogoshphere is adamant in its belief that the only way McCain can win is to make McCain into a candidate that only the most extreme right wingers would like. Talk about living in a bubble.

    O/T: did anyone else catch what the hell just happened on CNN (around 2:50 EST)? The anchor had two black conservatives on discussing the GE and right when I was tuning in one of them literally (h/t Joe Biden) ripped his mic off and stormed off-set. Did anyone catch what set him off? The gentleman who remained (whose name I missed) was backing Obama despite self-identifying as a conservative, so I have to assume the miffed guest was a McCain-backer.

    Did I just hallucinate this?

    Premise, conclusion. It’s all there. The steely logic of Nabalz again cannot be denied!

    I just love that they’re trying to defend the honor of the most holy St. Jerome Corsi of Makinshitup.

    A great example of wingnut logic: A caller to a talk show berated the host for saying bad things about Sarah Palin when Corsi had "proved" bad crap about Obama (this alone is crazy illogic). The host asked how the caller knew this stuff was true. The caller said that he had heard it on the Hannity show and a local conservative talk show. And no place else.

    So, the wingnut true believers get their "facts" from right wing outlets and stop there. Any other media source is "liberal" and "biased." This isn’t "low information." This is "no information."

    The real blockbuster in this story is that Sotero adopted Obama in Indonesia. Since Obama’s mother was underage (according to US law), this would mean Obama thereupon lost his US citizenship (assuming he had it in the first place). This would be a constitutional disqualification of his candidacy.

    "I’m gonna hate him the minute I vote for him. He’s gonna be a bad president. But I won’t ever vote for another god-damn Republican. I want the government to take over all of Wall Street and bankers and the car companies and Wal-Mart run this county like we used to when Reagan was President."

    American Flag
    At an Ohio campaign stop last week Obama gave a speech with a background of American flags which is quite common. However, if you look closely some of the flags are not American flags. The blue field has been changed to show an Obama seal. Yes, there are also stars but have no pattern and they do not add up to 50. With Obama making his own seal and now this it looks like maybe he is putting some credence to the recent article by Stanley Kurtz in the National Review. Is he planning on creating an African county within the US. I think the presence of these flags should be viewed with alarm. And I don’t want to hear any looney left comments that they are only decoration. They ARE a modification of the American Flag.

    to which a later commenter responds:

    the flag you’re asking about is the state flag of ohio.
