Glenn Beck and Resistnet have dueling march on DC events in August/September. Beck has moved his event up in order to misuse MLK’s legacy to sell more copies of his terrible books, and also to rally his troops into a frothing, gnashing horde of hate. All because he’s a “real patriot”. But wait! Remember when… Continue reading Wingnut Web – FreeRepublic Itchin’ to shoot some Panthers Edition

Iran has a robot. Iran, the new Japan. Mitt Romney is a moron, and gets destroyed by Fred Kaplan Harry Reid put the Sharron Angle website back up, so props to Harry Reid! I was gonna do an article on this before I saw it linked on Kos, and may still do one, but this… Continue reading Drain Clogs – 07-07-2010

We’re getting threatened again, this time by our old pal Helene. You remember her? Her husband invented everything ever. One thing he didn’t invent was a way to have us not make fun of her, thus she’s gone tattling to Dreamhost (our webhosting company) and “the property government authorities” – Looks like the jig is… Continue reading Drain Clogs – 07-06-2010
You can’t spell “you” without ‘Glenn Beck U’!
Hey you on the couch! Yes, you. Are you tired of entitled arrogant “educated” people like your boss or scientists always telling you what to do or saying how Global Warming isn’t a lie? Frustrated by the fact that the only thing setting you and “Mr. Know-It-All” apart might simply be a college degree or… Continue reading You can’t spell “you” without ‘Glenn Beck U’!
Defense Working Capital Funds
A curious line I found skimming through the most recent war supplemental: For an additional amount for ‘Defense Working Capital Funds’, $1,134,887,000, to remain available until expended. It sounded a little like one of those shady investment wings that large industrial corporations have been using, or in this context, a slush fund. I looked up… Continue reading Defense Working Capital Funds

GOP chair Michael Steele says more freaky things, this time he’s rewriting history! “This was a war of Obama’s choosing,” Michael Steele said at the event. “This is not something the United States has actively prosecuted or wanted to engage in.” The right is outraged, as usual, and will do nothing. “Terrorist babies are real!… Continue reading Drain Clogs – 07-02-2010
China will destroy America by being mean to animals
Resistnet poster rel find/forerunner (he posts under both accounts) has two passions: ranting about how alcohol can fuel every car in America, and ranting about how China will destroy America thanks to animal cruelty. Now, we here at Politisink.com love animals and abhor animal cruelty. However, there is a point where you go beyond a… Continue reading China will destroy America by being mean to animals

Conservatives think Nancy Pelosi, Barack Obama, George Soros, and Harry Reid are giant monsters, and now one GOP group has decided to just make Nancy Pelosi an actual giant monster in their commercials. I am sure the fact that she is gunned down by Republicans is totally not a threat and it would have been… Continue reading Drain Clogs – 07-01-2010
Appreciating Serious People
David Weigel resigns from the Washington Post for his unprofessional behavior, making an apology on the way out. I’m a member of an off-the-record list-serv called “Journolist,” founded by my colleague Ezra Klein. Last Monday, I was deluged with angry e-mail after posting a story about Rep. Bob Etheridge (D-N.C.) that was linked by the… Continue reading Appreciating Serious People
