Olberman on Bush's Press Conference

Perhaps the worst press conference I have ever seen....

Democrats Finally Grow a Backbone

And use it to keep a Democrat out of congress... Nice work guys...

Condi Has Gone Delusional!!

It is almost unbelievable to hear the crap that is coming from these bunch of apologists for a failed presidency...

Wall Street Faces Worst Yearly Drop Since 1931

"NEW YORK — Investors are preparing to close out the last three trading days of 2008, a year in which Wall Street has logged its worst performance since Herbert Hoover was president."


2009 is going to be a tough year for the US. Happy New Year....

If you still have not thrown your shoes through TV

You can always mail them to the White House as a holiday gift....

This Would Have Been Nice

It's A Blunderful Life!

Starring George W. Bush!

A Perfect Ending For Worst President Ever

He is pretty good at dodging those shoes! Something tells me Laura has been throwing things at him for some time now.... For sleeping with Condi perhaps?? Now we can only hope that Barney pees on his leg at the Obama Inauguration.

Why do they try to tie Obama to the Blagojevich scandal??

And how stupid do they think we are?? Of course, reading the letters in the Belleville paper can give you a quick answer to that question...

Slimy Blagojevich

No one in Illinois liked Blagojevich before the whole senate seat for sale thing happened. I have not heard of anyone on the left acting as apologist for him either. This is a stark contrast to the criminals on the right - they always have their right echo chamber making excuse for the crimes they are committing all of the way to the very end. Think about how the media treats Tom Delay, Duke Cunningham, and even George Bush! The best thing we can say about the Blagojevich scandal is at least no one died.... I hope he enjoys spending time with George Ryan as his cellmate....

Claire McCaskill Joins Republicans in Sinking Detroit

Well I guess giving $700 Billion to Wall street is just fine?? But screw the auto workers... What have they ever done for this country right??

More on this here.

Correction - Claire McCaskill only threatened to vote no on the bill. Thank you Ann for the correction. The roll call vote can be found here. There were 4 Democrats that did vote no and 10 Republicans voting yes - but they did not have enough people to get the 60 they needed for cloture.

Right Wing Moron Letters

Today's BND had another classic:



Err Phil - you are wrong...




The Republicans had the majority in the house 6 of the last 8 years. And the 2 years they did not have the majority in the house, the senate majority by the Dems was so slim that the Republicans filibustered almost everything the Dems tried to do, making them the most obstructionist in history.

Oh, and by the way Phil as far as Democrats and their position on guns - Here is a quote from President elect Obama in reference to that particular Supreme Court ruling:

"I teach constitutional law," Obama said. "What I said was that I believe Second Amendment as being an individual right and have said that consistently. I also think that individual right is constrained by the rights of the community to maintain issues with public safety. I don't think those two principles are contradictory and in fact what I've been saying consistently is what the Supreme Court essentially said today."

So with this moronic letter - I declare Phil "the official right wing tool from Smithon".

Sarah Palin Is Klassy With A Giant "K"

Bush Is On The Sauce Yet Again

The Daily Show on Palin's Brilliance

The real story hear, of course, is that the press was willing to hold this information until after the election. This is our liberal media at work....
