Okay, what is it with these fucking Obama Birthers? What part of WHITE MOTHER FROM KANSAS WHO LIVED IN HUH-WAH-YUH do they not understand? Just cracks my shiz up like woah. Jesus H.

Steve & Jerry Travel the Commonwealth
July 22nd, 2009 · No Comments
Mayor McCheese Jerry Abramson and Governor Steve Beshear traveled the state yesterday and today to promote their 2011 (obviously not 2012, as WSAZ suggests) candidacy for Governor and Lt. Governor. They were also handing out checks and road funds. So we imagine they were received quite well. (Did the state pay for these trips? Chad [...]

So, ladies, we’re, uh, busy or whatever this afternoon (hello, meetings that suck the life out of us!) but wanted to share a couple doozies from LEO Weekly. First Louisville Metro Councilcritter (D-Thin Skin) Dan Johnson has either gone bonkers or needs to. Check his reaction to LEO’s decision to point out how weak most [...]

Robin Webb Faces Jack Ditty in Special
July 22nd, 2009 · 5 Comments
Now that we know Robin Webb will face Jack Ditty in the special election on August 25th, let’s discuss things. Will Webb gain the State Senate seat vacated by Charlie Borders and put power that much closer to the Democrats? Or will the KDP and Governor’s people get involved and give things to Republican Jack [...]

We’re back again this week. And my favorite part of the segment? When Barry Bernsen has no idea about these internet tubes and struggles through our domain names, not realizing that Rick didn’t uncover the Daniel Mongiardo shenanigans. Check out the clip, though, as we hit on the Louisville mayoral race and the U.S. Senate [...]

The Jim King Elephant In the Room
July 22nd, 2009 · 13 Comments
Let’s address the Jim King elephant in the room. Everyone who reads this site knows I’ve held the hot iron to the feet of both Metro Councilman Jim King and his daughter, Judge Katie King, for over a year. And despite what a few loud critics have suggested, the two do not receive special treatment [...]

Hopefully Today Will Be a Bit More Calm?
July 22nd, 2009 · 19 Comments
Did you miss the bombshell yesterday? We provided an inside look at the Mongiardo campaign. Budget, financial plan, communication schedule. We obtained internal campaign documents that revealed it all. And it was insane. [Page One] Kudos to the Kentucky County Judge-Executive Association and the Kentucky Magistrates and Commissioners Association for being proactive enough to seek [...]

Your Afternoon Dept of All Kindsa Drama
July 21st, 2009 · 5 Comments
You probably won’t want to miss this insane story from the Mongiardo Campaign. Obtained copies of internal campaign documents that reveal an interesting look inside the most awkward of campaigns. So far we’ve heard from the DSCC, DNC, SKD, House folks, Senate folks. They’re all blown away at the ridiculous spending machine. [Page One] The [...]
