Lame: Offended at the Mosque but Not Ground Zero as a Tourist Destination

admin — Thu, 19 Aug 2010 01:29:25 +0000

If you are one of these GOP fucktards you’ve made a big issue out of the proposed mosque to be built blocks away from Ground Zero – but not the blockage, your blockage, of the Zadroga 9/11 Health & Compensation Act that will provide healthcare to first responders and other 9/11 victims. Worse yet, you likely showed up at a mass grave and took a picture like this:

Hot Chicks Smiling At Ground Zero... their expressions, very disgusting

….Because to you Ground Zero is a commercial tourist destination. Not hallowed ground.

Fail: Gordon Brown makes election gaffe causing him to /facepalm

admin — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 14:39:47 +0000

Prime Minister Gordon Brown today, who is polling third behind his opponents in the election, called a female candidate a bigoted woman in private remarks which were recorded and played back to him on the BBC. He swiftly apologized but it’s sure to sting a little longer though his apology was accepted by his opponent.

Edit: I fail, the woman was just some random bigot who was out getting bread and milk. I read another story that claimed she was a candidate.

For television viewers, one of the day’s most excruciating moments came when a BBC Radio announcer told Brown that he had a tape recording of the private conversation and played it back for him. In what could become a defining image of the election, Brown, whose party is running third in most opinion polls, buried his head in his hands.

Quick Post: Why HuffPo Matters

admin — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 12:50:36 +0000

Today I received an e-mail from Air America Radio with the teaser:

Pitney-gate: Why Is Huffington Post Getting Called On At White House Pressers?

First I have to say it’s a teaser because I saw no mention of this story in the actual e-mail. Secondly, maybe it has something to do with the huge sum of money recently invested in the Huffington Post ($15 million!), money which didn’t come from the White House and the taxpayer.

Why not reward an American company that is out there doing it without asking for a bailout and a media company that isn’t about to go under? (see: American Newspapers) Now this isn’t the reason that Obama called on Pitney, it was because they knew he had a real question. But the above is just my 2 cents.

Not Lame: Blog to Read: “The DCeiver” – Seriously Funny Political Shit

admin — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 02:02:45 +0000

If you are going to read one political blog to make you laugh, and maybe cry, from laughing, it should be The DCeiver. Check out the sample post I stole below (yes, in its entirety because I’m just that lame). KTHXBAI…

Via Andrew Sullivan, here’s a look at the socialism that Sarah Palin has been warning you about, because she can see it from her porch or some shit:

Yeah, so, it goes like this. First, they came for $82.3 billion, and I said nothing, because FUCK DUDE, we still had $39.2 trillion, and yeah, I was like, “WOO, POP SOME CRISTAL UP IN THIS PIECE!” and anyway, did you know we are using some of that money to make another Final Destination sequel? It’s TRUE, we are, and yeah, I’D LOVE TO SEE CAPITALISM EXPLAIN THAT.

Obama smeared with Rev. Wright

admin — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 01:28:33 +0000

I just saw, in southwest Ohio, a commercial funded by The National Republican Trust PAC that finally broke the silence in the national campaign about the “relationship” between Rev. Wright’s comments and Obama’s views on how to run the country. It was pretty fiery, and not by McCain.

How tricky it is. The night before the election and on in the swing states. Sounds like people are getting scared.

Update: It’s running a lot now and it worries me because people are dumb.

Run-Off Election Called Off In Zimbabwe (it’s a country near Mozambique)

Totally Lame; In 2008 a feared dictator can get an election canceled by using violence and intimidation.

Zimbabwe Opposition Leader Pulls Out of Runoff

By CELIA W. DUGGER and BARRY BEARAK

Published: June 23, 2008

Morgan Tsvangirai announced that he is pulling out of Friday’s presidential runoff election because of mounting violence and intimidation.

I promised myself not to get all political on this site, and to just keep things light – but this is 101% lame. I’ve been following this story since the original election – which Tsvangirai squeaked ahead in to narrowly win. The entire time I hoped to see Tsvangirai prevail but now he is backing down from the fight.

I think it’s both lame on Mugabe’s part and Tsvangirai’s. It’s even lame on the behalf of the neighbors of Zimbabwe who stand by and do nothing while talking tough. Why send “election monitors” but not have any force to act upon transgressions?
