Remember when the pundit class and Obamabots got all pissy over McCain’s Obama/Paris/Britney video? Remember the cries of “unfair” and “racism” and Bob Herbert’s phallic fantasies and the Mandingo references? Well, the Obama people, demonstrating their arrogance, tone-deafness and desire to keep us all in stitches, have outdone themselves, handing the Republicans what’s known as [...]

Much is being made of the fact that Barack Obama will deliver his acceptance speech on the 45th Anniversary of “I Have a Dream”. It’s time to put the unity pony out to pasture, blow away the fairy dust and shake the Bots up a bit. Here is the I Have a Dream speech: Here’s [...]

You know, sometimes the jokes just write themselves. Obama’s Temple of Doom Invesco Field stage, which is meant to look superclassy, like the White House or the Lincoln Memorial, and NOT, as suggested by right wingers, racists and dead-enders who have yet to get with the program, a vulgar pagan temple, is such a laughing [...]

Sometimes I wonder what some No Quarter commenters do for a living. All I can say is that there are so many brilliant, hilarious and brainy comments on the blog that some of these folks are missing their true calling. Case in point: This brilliant comment by our very own Jeremiah God Damn Amerikka Wright. [...]

Thank God MSNBC has one program worth watching. The zesty Morning Joe , with Joe Scarborough at the helm, was clicking on all cylinders this morning, offering sane analysis and zippy features (and keeping the lid on Mika – no small feat). Some of you may have watched this clip when I posted it a [...]

Brought to you by the irony-free Barack Obama campaign. The hits just keep on coming. Courtesy of Howard Dean, Donna Brazile and Nancy Pelosi: Denver hosts the world’s biggest toga party! Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama’s big speech on Thursday night will be delivered from an elaborate columned stage resembling a miniature Greek temple…. …Some [...]

Free Republic or Kos/Americablog? Who can tell the difference anymore? Let’s be clear. I’ve picked my share of fights with some of the inhabitants of Wingnut Blogsylvania. I got into a brawl with Michelle Malkin that got so heated that the Freepers joined in, which achieved the unintended consequence of sending my pageviews through the [...]

Jack Cafferty has a role, which is to play the cranky old bastard on CNN, a job he was put on earth to do. Day after day, you can see Wolf Blitzer start getting nervous as Cafferty’s hit time approaches, squirming as he anticipates what zesty bon mots will spill from Cafferty’s maw. But Cafferty [...]

Sorry to burden you all with this nonsense, but it’s important to record the “thinking” of Democratic party insiders for posterity. Behold the musings of Elaine Kamarck on Salon. “Schaller” is the Salon interviewer. “Cohen” is Michael Cohen of the New America Foundation. The article was published before the Biden announcement.

Just a little reading material to whet your appetite for Tuesday’s show. By all means comment away on this list and who should have been included.

A fascinating and all too short interview with my new hero David Perel of the National Enquirer. Notice what he says about the Edwards legal team:

Some things in life are inherently funny. Infighting and garment rending are two such hilarious phenomena. Now comes the Editor the National Enquirer to call bullshit on the ongoing cavalcade of hypocrisy and navel gazing in the MSM. It’s about time. I particularly love this part: Meanwhile the New York Times was rebuked by its [...]

Shorter Dahlia Lithwick: All you women out there who are still crowing on about sexism and the Clinton campaign are actually hurting women, since you’re just setting yourselves up for negative media coverage which, by the way, you totally deserve and for which the media are blameless. Comment away.

Time for a Great Reckoning »

Rebecca Curtis’s article and the ensuing comments (see posting below) got me thinking. I’m a white Latina, an over-40 woman and a Jew. That makes me a quadruple threat as far as the Obama campaign and their amen corner of bounty hunters, their antennae a-quiver as they smoke out racists from every corner, are concerned. [...]

More Bursts of Insanity From Outer Blogovia »

I heart the Internets. I’ve often said it’s the greatest invention since the telephone…and the Internet, accepting its extreme coolness with dignity and class, gives the telephone the opportunity to put its feet up and take a rest by serving as a conduit between you and your mother (e-mail cuts down on valuable nagging time), [...]
