Rand Paul Continues His Teabagger Ego Tour
May 22nd, 2012 · No Comments
Here’s a look at Rand Paul pretending he had nothing to do with the SuperPAC funding Thomas Massie, around the 8:06 mark: Because we all know 21-year-old kids just have $500,000 laying around to throw at some random teabagger in the armpit of Kentucky.

You Most Likely Are Not Casting A Vote Today
May 22nd, 2012 · 1 Comment
Ooooh, lawwwd. It is election day and you should listen to this hilarity from some man of “jesus” (after tens and tens of you cast your votes, of course): “I figured a way to get rid of all the lesbians and queers,” he says in his sermon, delivered on May 13. “Build a great, big, [...]

Larry Dale Hit The Nail On The Head. Again.
May 21st, 2012 · No Comments
Larry Dale Keeling seems to think Jack Conway is playing pat-a-cake with Richie Farmer and he rightly thinks this tax reform commission is as silly as the rest of us. [H-L] Chris Christie and some other bloated white men love to claim Barack Obama is the least experience president ever. Apparently, they’ve never heard of [...]

Alecia’s Crew & PAC Ties Stink To High Heavens
May 17th, 2012 · 1 Comment

Like Alecia Webb-Edgington’s guy, who was/is/maybe/was/who knows? helping to operate this joint: Citizens for Working America is not the biggest or the most influential of the super PACs, but it may provide one of the clearest illustrations of how hard it is to track the [...]

Mittens Romney’s incendiary debt speech was riddled with flaws and people are freaking out over it. [HuffPo] Mitch McConnell once again forgets that he is the pot calling the kettle black.

Lexington Is Trying Hard To Become Louisville-Lite
May 16th, 2012 · 2 Comments
So… it looks like the mouth-breathers are the folks who have babies at younger ages and give them crazy names. [NPR] Lexington is in full panic mode over a homeless shelter.
