Holy crap. You can't get much more self-satirical than this. The president is trying to take credit for following the strategy and the tactics put into place by George W. Bush. At some point the...
Here's Fox News anchor Chris Wallace totally deflating Mike Gallagher's desperate theory that the polls -- all of them except Rasmussen -- are biased and inaccurate. As a bonus, here's Chris Christie...
My Monday column unskews the Unskewed Polls website and how Republicans are desperate for polls that match their fictitious view of the president. Last week, when the conservative British commentator...
The Dears - "Ticket To Immortality"
Yes. The most unfunny man on the planet is practicing pre-scripted 'zingers' to use on the President of the United States during the first presidential debate on Wednesday. Believing that the debates...
Spinal Tap - "The Majesty of Rock" I think we're live? If you're seeing this, we're on our new server. Welcome aboard.
MST3K Saturday - "The Final Sacrifice" Not much by way of content today. We're busy packing up all of our outrage and blockquotes into a van, etc, and moving the blog to a new host, so don't expect...

Questions for me, Chez and Ben from the heaping stenchy Mail Bag: 1) What changes do you think might be coming in the cabinet for Obama's second term (if he wins)? -N 2) Hey guys, did you see that...
Smashing Pumpkins - "Rhinoceros"
Maybe all the Republican whiny diaper crying about the polls is cover for the disenfranchisement effort. Maybe I'm paranoid, but this is a chilling thought -- and nothing should be left up to chance...
All of the pollsters are conspiring to win the election for the president. Erickson, Editor-in-Chief of RedState.com and CNN political contributor, accuses the media of a “confirmation bias” that...
Utterly awesome. Patrick Stewart "replaced" John Oliver on The Daily Show to illustrated the NFL referee strike. Watch here. Because it's awesome.
My Thursday column documents the fuzzier, cuddlier, more "empathic" version of Mitt Romney: I've admittedly lost track of the ongoing series of Mitt Romney "reboots." With each iteration we've heard...
Jane's Addiction - "Mountain Song"
This clip from last night's The Daily Show is both. The premise is that President Obama's re-election chances should be in peril because of a "stagnant economy" and global turmoil, the Obama-as...
This is just about as meta as Romney's ever been. On CNN, Jim Acosta asked Romney about his welfare reform lie and Romney said his campaign always corrects the record. Acosta asked if that included...
