Danny Doom’s Booze Cabinet

Ken Buck, the Colorado Tea Party candidate for the U.S. Senate, thinks birthers are dumbasses:

“Will you tell those dumbasses at the Tea Party to stop asking questions about birth certificates while I’m on the camera,” Buck said to the worker while laughing. “God, what am I supposed to do?”

Haha! You better start acting crazier, Mr. Buck, or you’re gonna lose your people!

No, it’s not Anderson Cooper…

Brilliant!

Ah, and here it is! I had forgotten about the site onegoodmove, which I used to visit quite regularly. It has been a while, and so as I now see, it is my loss. You can see great clips like this one, or Al Franken kicking ass, or any number of things. Larry David = Genius.

I don’t have HBO so I’ll have to wait for this one, but it sounds pretty sweet:

At one point in the show, David goes to the bathroom in a Catholic home and splatters urine on a picture of Jesus; he doesn’t clean it off. Then a Catholic woman goes to the bathroom, sees the picture and concludes that Jesus is crying. She then summons her equally stupid mother and the two of them fall to their knees in prayer. When David and Jerry Seinfeld (playing himself) are asked if they ever experienced a miracle, David answers, “every erection is a miracle.”

That’s Catholic League sourpuss Bill Donahue commenting on the show. Man, I would love to have seen his face as he took that episode in!

Glenn Greenwald reads a poll on Iran:

In the last ten years, the U.S. and Israel collectively have bombed at least six Muslim countries (including Gaza).  Despite that, 40% of Americans want to attack yet another one, and 1/3 want to invade.  Those are the same people who, if there is another terrorist attack on U.S. soil, will be walking around, eyebrows earnestly raised, innocent, self-righteous and confused, and asking:  ”why do they hate us??”  And their friends and neighbors and leaders will assure them:  ”they hate us for our freedoms.”

Reminds me of the David Cross bit:

I don’t think Osama bin Laden sent those planes to attack us because he hated our freedom. I think he did it because of our support for Israel, our ties with the Saudi family and our military bases in Saudi Arabia. You know why I think that? Because that’s what he fucking said!

I could post these every day, sure, but really, this one brings up a good point: if 75,000 people march on Washington and Fox News doesn’t report it, did it really happen?

Words can’t do it justice! Simply…unbelievable.

UPDATE:

Meanwhile, Drudge race-baits: “White Student Beaten On School Bus; Crowd Cheers.” This is a movement that is just showing off now! Why wouldn’t we want to put them back in power?

I like how Jon Stewart put it: just another politician with a conservative mind and a liberal penis. Can we just stop now and forget about family values as an issue, Republican nutbags? It’s a joke. You can’t get all worked up about Bill Clinton’s penis and then pretend like yours is any different. A liberal penis is a liberal penis, and there isn’t any other kind!

OK, I suppose there may be a few conservative penises out there, but does anyone want anything to do with them? No. Of course not. Don’t be silly. This is why there is so much repression on the right: the conservative mind can’t reconcile the liberal leanings that linger in their pants. Eventually it’s a-gonna burst! And oh, that’s when things get ugly.

Anyway, more good times, nothing like another sex scandal involving a “family values” Republican, it never ends.

Has the fake outrage over the Wanda Sykes routine–the one where she hoped Limbaugh’s kidneys would fail–passed yet? Alright then, just checking.

I’m having a hard time believing that this is real. Look, I don’t watch this stuff, I usually just see it through the eyes of Colbert and Stewart. But the clips of Hannity (and Beck) that I have seen, well, who is dumb enough to watch this shit? I mean, it’s funny, for sure. But he’s really serious, eh? A Liberty Tree? Wow.

It’s a wonderful world. Right-wingers are out there defending torture as best they can, Sean Hannity is making an utter fool of himself, along with that Beck guy, Dick Cheney is out there as the main Republican talking head, saying Dick Cheney things that of course repel the entire rational world, and the angry right is now associated with…teabagging.

I don’t know how things are going to improve. Has Sarah Palin said anything lately?
