2012 U.S. Election
Better Know a Flake
Give it up to the good folks in New Hampshire who last month actually staged a serious 2 hour-long C-SPAN forum for “lesser known candidates” running for President of the…
Mitt Romney: “Job Creator”
Interesting discussion from this weekend’s “Up w/ Chris Hayes” program about the true nature of Mitt Romney’s dubious wealth-extracting endevours in the “free market” as a private equity investor (the…
The Evolution of Negative Advertising
The absurdly hypocritical “Pot v. Kettle” sniping towards the end of yesterday’s MTP debate between Newt Gringrich and Mitt Romney over the legitimacy and moral superiority of the viciously negative…
Worst “Debate”… Ever
Good grief, what an abysmal travesty ABC News televised earlier this evening in New Hampshire. Absent any substantive discussion, the most notable “gaffe” the media was able to latch onto…
Fox News Kills Ron Paul
Not literally, of course… but as you can see from nipped and tucked Scientoligist Greta Van Susteren’s year-end look back at the race to become the Republican presidential nominee, there…
Frank Luntz: Xmas C-SPAN
Brilliantly evil wordsmith, Republican pollster and Fred Flintstone look-alike Frank Luntz holds forth on C-SPAN’s Christmas program about the current state of politics in America. (It’s kind of sad… but…
WPITW: Fox & Fiends
The late great Daniel Patrick Moynihan famously said, “Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts.” Unfortunately that concept is totally alien to Fox “News” that…
“Invented People”
Some may be familiar by now with controversial remarks made to an obscure Jewish cable TV channel last week by current Republican frontrunner Newt Gringrich while desperately trolling for the…
Broke-Back Perry
Another great parody of Republican ad; this time, Rick Perry’s pathetic attempt to rile up homophobic Bible-thumpers: You don’t need to be in the pew each Sunday to know that…
Ron Bless America
The other day, I expressed admiration for the aggressive new F-150ish “Big Dogs” ad from the Ron Paul campaign, but Conan O’Brian’s parody of it is even more brilliant. “You…
Loontastic!
If anything seems to elicit the barely disguised lunatic aspect of almost every Republican politician (with a few notable exceptions such as Ron Paul and Gary Johnson), it’s their desperate…
Ron Paul “Big Dogs” Ad
You don’t have to agree with the message to admire this ballsy new ad by the Ron Paul campaign. Kudos to whatever advertising shop created it!
Fake Billionaire to Moderate GOP Debate
News that reality-show host Donald Trump will be “moderating” a post-Christmas Republican “debate” in Iowa gave Lawrence O’Donnell yet another delightful opportunity last night to heap copious amounts of scathing…
Cain “Suspends” Joke Campaign
As expected, Herman Cain announced today that he’s effectively dropping out of the race to be Leader of the Free World. I know… we’re all terribly let down by the…
Cain Disabled
Uh oh! Another “bimbo eruption” threatens to derail the Herman Cain Art Project for good this time… “It’s probably an infinite number of people who could come forward with a…
A Man of Steadiness & Constancy
An amusing summary of Mitt Romney’s reversals on… everything.
Herman Cain Art Project?
I would love to subscribe to this amusing theory Rachel Maddow has been propounding of late to explain the otherwise perplexing Herman Cain campaign… Unfortunately, I just can’t seem to…
