Thursday’s Asshat of the Day

Filed in National by on September 16, 2010 1 Comment

One would think that after hearing Newt Gingrich state that President Obama exhibited a “Kenyan, anti-Colonial worldview,” smart people would shy away from him. But not today’s Asshat – Michael Steele. The RNC chair is defending Newtie, saying that he doesn’t think that Newtie was race baiting or playing to the birthers. C’mon, Mike. Really? […]

Wednesday’s Asshats of the Day

Filed in Delaware by on September 15, 2010 6 Comments

We have a tie for today’s award. It goes to both the Delaware Democratic and Republican State Executive Committees. Both groups decided to anoint people as their “officially endorsed” (read: preferred) candidates; the Democrats in the Treasurer and Auditor races and the Republicans in the US Senate and House races. In all but one of […]

Tuesday’s Asshat of the Day

Today’s award goes to those fantastic people over at ResistNet.com, who are some of the most wingnutty of the wingnuts out there. If you visit their website, check out the Delaware page. Anyway, I guess they were trying to be humorous when they created this video. It just shows how idiotic and just plain asinine […]

Monday’s Asshat of the Day

Without a doubt, there is only one person who could be named today’s winner, Newt Gingrich. No real need to repeat what UI wrote earlier today. On another note, we have a Hero of the Day. Jacob Isom stood up and grabbed a Koran before some schmuck could burn it. Yeah, one of our resident […]

Who’s Contacting Me? – It’s Ken Matlusky

Filed in Delaware by on September 13, 2010 5 Comments

I’ve gotten robocalls and mailers from his opponent, but last night I got an email from Ken Matlusky, “the only CPA running for Auditor.” I’ve met him a few times (unimpressed), but if you want my support, tell me why I should vote for you.

Friday’s Asshat of the Day

I think Dave Burris would even agree to this awardee – David “Delusional David” Anderson from Dover. Anderson posts over here as Republican David (and no, I’m not outing him) and runs that bastion of blog wingnuttery, Delaware Politics. He never ceases to amaze me, and probably a number of others, with his asinine comments […]

La Shonah Tovah – 5771

I want to wish all of my friends, and foes alike, a very Happy and Healthy New Year. If I have offended you over the past year, whether knowingly or unknowingly, I ask your forgiveness. May you all be inscribed in the Book of Life.

Wednesday’s Asshat of the Day

The decision on who should get today’s award was a tough one. Should it go to Anon, for all of his/her silly comments on the thread regarding VJP’s questionable endorsements? Too easy (although he/she is worthy). Should it go to Mike Castle for his “I balanced the budget for 8 years as Governor” commercial? Again, […]

**UPDATE** Phony Endorsements and Last Minute Shenanigans

It seems that Velda Jones-Potter couldn’t leave well enough alone. After spending a week being pilloried over her “consulting” contract with the City of Wilmington, a contract that was indirectly voted on by her husband, her campaign has now sent out a mailer listing her endorsements and including pictures of Governor Jack Markell. Problem is, […]

Tuesday’s Asshat of the Day

We’ve already honored the self-ordained preacher in Florida who plans on burning copies of the Koran this coming Saturday, and now he’s going to ignore the pleas of the general in charge of our efforts in Afghanistan. Oh well, once an asshat, always an asshat. As Keith Olbermann pointed out, where is the Republican leadership […]

Today’s award goes to the Aryan Nations, that group of boy scouts who are hell-bent on saving the United States from the “mud people.” What are mud people? Glad you asked. The AN believe that mud people are anyone who is not white, is not Protestant, is not Anglo-Saxon. They hate (and yes, I mean […]

Friday’s Asshat of the Day

Good morning, everyone. So far, we have plenty of nuthin’ down here in Sussex, as far as Earl is concerned. Not saying we won’t get some rain and some wind later today, but it’s not going to be the doom and gloom that everyone was predicting. Today’s recipient is not a politician. In fact, his […]
