Monday’s Asshats of the Day
It was a gorgeous weekend down here in LSD. Too many tourons, but hey, they help our local small businesses. If they could only just leave their money and not drive on the roads, it would be perfect. Now on to more serious matters. Today’s award is a bipartisan award and it was too easy. […]
Friday’s Asshats of the Day
Today’s award is a group award. It goes to all of those self-righteous “patriots” who oppose the so-called “Ground Zero Mosque.” You know who you are (locally we have Alfalfa and Curly from WGOP and nationally we have Abraham Foxman of the American Jewish Committee and Charles Krauthammer). I traded emails with my brother today. […]
Thursday’s Asshats of the Day
Today’s award goes to the pastor and members of Dove World Outreach Center, a “church” in Gainesville, FL. These “christians” (and I use that term extremely loosely) are planning on holding a public Koran burning ceremony on September 11. This is the same “church” that printed up and handed out t-shirts that read “Islam is […]
Asshat of the Day
Apologies for not posting one of these for yesterday – I was caught up in all of the primary election returns from around the country (yay Michael Bennet and John Hickenlooper in CO). No contest for today’s award – Congressman Charles Rangel. Isn’t it ironic that in 1970, he beat scandal-burdened Adam Clayton Powell and […]
Solving the Marriage Conundrum
Since it appears that neither the left nor the right are going to agree on who is entitled to enjoy the bliss of married life, I have a solution – get the State out of the marriage and divorce business. No more state-issued marriage licenses (think of the money we’ll be saving taxpayers by getting […]
Asshats of the Day
In keeping with the thread on Ted Olsen totally destroying Chris Wallace on FAUX Entertainment, today’s Asshats of the Day are Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council (DE has their own chapter of these group – Elaine Benes, I mean, Christine O’Donnell is a member), and the American Family Foundation. FRC (or is the […]
Asshat of the Day
Today’s award goes to Lt. Colonel Terrence Lakin, also known as the birther soldier. Lakin has dishonored the uniform he wears and every man and woman who has ever served in the Armed Forces by claiming that President Obama was not born in the US and therefore is ineligible to be Commander in Chief. He […]
Asshat of the Day
UI had one great submission, but after listening to C-SPAN this afternoon, our Asshat of the Day winner is Sen. John McCain (Teabag/Confederate – AZ). A simple motion to bring up the Defense Department Authorization Bill was met with an objection by McCain because it has the repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell contained in […]
Asshat of the Day (For Wednesday)
It’s a day late because I and many others were celebrating the overturning of Proposition 8 in California. Without a doubt, yesterday’s winner is Dan Maes (Teabag – Colorado) for all of his talk about the evils of bike riding. Seems that a program to get people out of their cars and on to bikes […]
Asshat of the Day
Well, I guess we got under the skin of yesterday’s inaugural winner of this coveted award (think of Laugh-In’s Flying Fickle Finger of Fate Award), because after bawling his eyes out that he couldn’t post anything to DL, he posted a wild screed about how Mohammedans were basically going to take over the world (check […]
Asshat Comment of the Day
Hopefully, this can become a new daily feature, like the open thread. This will be dedicated to totally outrageous comments from the wingnut, teabagging right. Tonight’s entry – Duke Brooks, sitting in for Bill Colley today (he usually hosts “Radio Free Delmarva” from 7-10): “If I were in charge, any Mohammadean (sp) who is in […]
Something to Think About
Two questions to start your weekend – When did it become OK for people to call others faggot, n****r, spic, kike, or other racially insensitive pejoratives? And if you’re on the receiving end of one of these insults, should you have the right to smack the person across the face? When is enough enough?
Colorado GOP Has a Plagiarism Problem
We all know that Joe Biden plagiarized a speech by former UK Labour Party leader Neal Kinnock back in 1988. In fact, it ended his presidential campaign. Well, those who fail to heed history are doomed to repeat it. It seems as though former GOP Congressman Scott McInnis has forgotten the lesson Joe learned. Seems […]
