December 5th, 2011 · 1 Comment

You know you shed a tear when Sexytime Herman Cain suspended his presidential campaign so he has more time for sexytime. [HuffPo]

Rumors of extramarital affair end campaign of presidential candidate who didn’t know China has nuclear weapons. [The Onion]

Yes, your Sexytime Herman Cain bravely quit the presidential race because people were just cold making crap up. Because that’s what you do when it’s not true – you quit instead of fighting back. [Wonkette]

Let us bow our heads in hilarious prayer as we read this devastating recap of Sexytime Herman Cain’s failure of a presidential bid. This contains bullet points so you know we love it. [Mother Jones]

Congratulations to Les Fugate and his wife, Katherine, on the birth of Kensington Lee Fugate. Beautiful baby girl. [It's Baby Time]

Why is it, exactly, that Jim Ramsey never, ever has to answer for people repeatedly stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars on his watch? When this happens at other schools, the buck stops with the individual at the top and they take ultimate responsibility. He’s yet to do so. Ever. For any reason. [C-J/AKN]

Tom FitzGerald resigned in protest from two state environmental boards in reaction to Steve Beshear’s environmental corruption. It won’t matter and no one will care in two weeks. [WFPL]

It’s flipping crazy that county magistrates who do next to no work get state retirement benefits. The same goes for city council members who only work a couple hours per month. Absolutely crazy and wasteful. [H-L]

Postal Service cuts are going to slow first-class mail to a halt, to say the least. So where is Steve Beshear on this? The mayors of the state’s largest cities? Apparently, they aren’t aware of the potential harm that will fall upon their constituencies. [NPR]

At least he had the sense to attack crazy man Donald Trump for being crazy. [Politico]

Here’s Liberty Christ Rand Paul trying to call the U.S. Senate’s bluff. He’ll surely be all over television for a few weeks talking about it instead of actually working. [The Hill]

Remember when Jonathan Miller and his pals were touting all of that sweet broadband flooding rural Kentucky? And then a bunch of years passed and nothing has happened? There’s a sweet new subsidy that also probably won’t solve the problem. [The Economist]

    Yea, Rand! That’s something, anyhow. Too bad section 1301 got through, and 1302 was no civil liberties paragon, either, it just didn’t apply to citizens. Permanent legal residents? You bet.
