At least according to John Gibson we are.
Instead of clamoring for new information on Anna Nicole Smith (Who frankly, would have cost me big money in a dead pool— Who expected her to last this long?), we insist on… You know, real news.
H/T to ThinkProgress:

The Golden Campy Award Goes To…
Posted in Golden Campy Award, Stacey Campfield on February 28, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
… who else?
The namesake of this award, Stacey Campfield (Who earned such an honor by outdumbing The Decider) is the best person to break this award in.
Not for his spirited defense of Terry Frank, although it certainly is deserving. Nor is it for his wish to give a death certificate to every aborted fetus.
No, [...]
This Week’s Ivins Award Goes To…
Posted in Autoegocrat, Edmund Ford, Ivins Award on February 27, 2007 | 1 Comment »
Autoegocrat, for issuing the best line possible regarding the Edmund Ford scandal. No matter who writes about it, this line will never be topped:
“What is this world coming to? Doesn’t anyone know how to take a bribe by candlelight anymore?”

Everyone should have a look at this one. It’s really a beautiful piece of writing.
The Only Member of the Council On Foreign Relations You’ve Ever Seen Naked…
Posted in Angelina Jolie, Council on Foreign Relations on February 27, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Okay, once you get past the initial guffaws that reading that Angelina Jolie is now a member of the Council On Foreign Relations will surely inspire, it’s not a bad move. Her work on behalf of AIDS orphans, refugees, famine victims, and disaster victims is certainly great, and lends a much-needed layer of activism to [...]

Could Al Sharpton be related to Strom Thurmond? And furthermore, doesn’t this sound like the setup to a really bad sitcom or buddy cop movie?
NEW YORK (AP) — The Rev. Al Sharpton said he wants a DNA test to determine whether he is related to former segregationist Sen. Strom Thurmond through his great-grandfather, a slave [...]
Al Gore Wins the Oscar!

At least until the Supreme Court takes it away from him and hands it over to George W. Bush. Now let’s draft Gore and keep this one out of stealing distance.
Kibitzer did a great writeup on Tennessee’s favorite son that should be seen by all.
Have You Seen Her?

The New Republican
Posted in Peter Beinart, The New Republic on February 24, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
The New Republican has been sold. I’m sure this isn’t new knowledge— It’s been reported everywhere. Except, of course, The New Republican.
Peter Beinart uses his last editorial at the magazine to do what he’s been doing for years— Trying to play it both ways regarding the war in Iraq.
A couple of years ago, TNR ran [...]

My father loved the old TV show “Married With Children”. There was an old episode of the show where Al and Peggy Bundy went to a hotel that their neighbors Marcy and Steve used in an effort to”spice up” the old marriage. After having sex, they popped in the complimentary porn video the hotel managers [...]
Weapons of Mass Deception…

… or “How To Turn 600 Pounds Into One Million pounds In Three Easy Steps”.
In the interest of disclosure, this message is here because, like Stacey Campfield, Terry Frank has felt the need to make my latest response to her blather go away rather than face up to it. My response broke no rules. [...]
The Terry Frank Story Unravels.
Posted in Terry Frank on February 22, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Not that she’s copped to it, mind you.
The startling discovery she’s made was, in fact, in the Iraq Survey Group report. In fact, it’s inventory that we already knew about. It’s inventory acquired between 1979 and 1982 that we already knew about and was already under safeguard or deemed not weapons grade.
We should all congratulate [...]

Terry Frank at rightwing blog Frankly Speaking claims to have unearthed documents that will turn the world upside down— She claims to have evidence of one million pounds of uranium were in the possession of one Saddam Hussein of Iraq.
Of course, for her claims to have even a passing resemblance to reality, you have to [...]
The McCain vs. McCain Debate
Posted in John McCain, flip flops on February 22, 2007 | 2 Comments »
Fact: John McCain wants to be president.
So much campaign rhetoric has been thrown about over the last few months that it’s only fitting to go ahead and kick off debate season now. And I’ll be moderating the first debate.
In one corner, we have Maverick Senator John McCain.
In the other corner, we have the only man [...]
The Golden Bushie Award For Accomplishments in Assclownism…

… goes to Representative Stacey Campfield, whose recent efforts could very well earn him the right to have this award renamed in his (dubious) honor.
He laments the return of the term “baby killer” into the American lexicon while conveniently sidestepping of the fact that it’s the rightwing, anti-choice dragoons that have brought it back [...]

Bill Maher for this nugget on “Real Time” Friday night, referring to Ted Haggard:

Just shut up and sing.
Isn’t that the advice Republicans tend to give to celebrities that voive their opinion about politics, right? (Well, at least as long as those celebrities aren’t Arnold Schwarzenegger, Ronald Reagan, Sonny Bono, Clint Eastwood, Ted Nugent, Tom Selleck, or Toby Keith back when he was still in the disagreeing-with-the-war closet.)
Then again, [...]
Has Tennessee Seceded From The Union Again?

I just wanted to check after reading this drivel from Representative Stacey Campfield:
Is a death certificate worse then [sic] the fact that partial birth abortion is legal in Tennessee? If you had a choice to end one or the other, what would you put your effort behind stopping? Have you?
Now, the last time I checked, [...]
