« Previous EntriesThe FBI needs to keep it in their pants
Monday, March 31st, 2008What with Bob Ney, Duke Cunningham and Mark Foley all getting caught with their hands in the cookie jar right around the 2006 elections, I guess it’s kind of forgivable that the Republican Justice Department would get a raging erection at the thought of a real-life Democrat getting caught with a bunch of dirty […]
WTF is synthenol?
Monday, March 31st, 2008I love the AV Club as much as the next guy - in fact, it’s pretty much my only source for music reviews these days - but their list today of fictional drugs is sadly incomplete. Come on, guys! The first drug on the list is a lame-o alcohol substitute from freakin’ Star Trek but […]
Dun. Dun. Dun. Another one bites the dust.
Monday, March 31st, 2008Jesus, being a Bush administration cabinet member gives you all the longevity of the slutty one in a teen slasher film. Just ask O’Neill, Ridge, Ashcroft, Powell, Rumsfeld, Tenet, Gonzalez and the dude from Scanners.
Yikes.
Why I support Change Congress
Sunday, March 30th, 2008NOTE: For an explanation of what Blogrolling for Change is and how to get involved, click here.
When I was a senior in high school, The Nation had a contest where they asked high school and college students across the country what the most important issue facing young people was. In writing my response I deliberately […]
Remember when Kevin Spacey was in good movies?
Sunday, March 30th, 200821 is a really, really bad movie. Thank god it’s the funny kind of bad. ‘Cause it’s got Lawrence Fishburne yelling, “You think you can beat the system? Well here’s the system beating YOU!”
Now I want to read the book it’s inspired by. Because the basic premise is intriguing, but I would prefer it to […]
Blogrolling for Change
Saturday, March 29th, 2008I’ve written previously about my support for Change Congress. Well, today, I’m putting my money where my mouth is. Except I don’t have any money, so I created a free del.icio.us account instead.
So here’s how it works: Say you have a website or a blog. If you write a page or post with the Change […]
Kittens, McCain and America: Soft and cuddly!
Saturday, March 29th, 2008John McCain thinks America is really, really, really super-awesome. Like, the best thing ever. How do I know? Because he says “America” like thirty goddamn times. It’s Giuliani’s 9/11 Tourrette’s Part II: Electric [American] Boogaloo. In America.
Here’s the video:
You know what’s really depressing? This shit works, and John McCain knows it. As long as he […]
Rudymentum goes to Albany
Saturday, March 29th, 2008Jesus Christ yes!!!
That’s right, just because almost no one wanted him to be President and the only reason he didn’t leave office as the most hated ex-mayor in the history of New York is because terrorists attacked it first doesn’t mean that Rudy Giuliani is finished politically. Oh, hells no! He’s having surrogates drop […]
Great moments in mugshot history
Saturday, March 29th, 2008Seriously, the mugshot at the top of Paul’s post here is awesome. It pretty much says all you need to know.
There’s some stuff about a DoJ investigation in this post or something, but I know that’s not what you’re interested in. What you’re wondering, and what Paul answers at the very bottom is this: What […]
Blogrollin’
Saturday, March 29th, 2008So I went to the pre-convention event thing and managed to totally embarrass myself by kissing Atrios’s ass way too much, which was funny. He was very gracious about it and seemed kind of confused that anyone would be star-struck meeting him in person.
Also met TRex in person for the second time, after we worked […]
