IT'S NOT IN THE BAG, IT'S IN THE TEA
There's a Tea Party brewing...and you're invited! The establishment and fourth estate can jam Rudy and Hillary down our throats all year long, but they can't step into the voting booth with us. Let's shake shit up, people.
Viva la Revolucion!
FOX NEWS PORN
Here's a brilliant follow-up to the expose on Fox News Channel's smut affinity. It's called Fox News Porn - a mock website assembled from actual Fox footage that mimics the look and feel of an adult entertainment site. May as well be hosted by the pimp dad himself, Bill Oh!Reilly.

TO HILLARY IN A HANDBASKET
Here's an enlightening article on how campaign aides at a recent Clinton appearance prepped audience members by assigning them softball questions to ask. The student in the article blew the whistle after a staffer told her not to ask the question she wanted to ask, but to instead ask her this OTHER question, which was all typed up and ready to go in a campaign binder.
At some point, after initially going along with the charade, it dawned on the student that the entire episode was a load of fucking horseshit - so she squealed like a good little American piggy. Yes - I suppose it does make answering questions a little easier if you know what they are in advance. In school, this is called "cheating." Students are warned that behavior of this nature is a violation of ethics, and punishable by expulsion. Sadly, in politics, it's par for the course.
If you're not cheating, you're not trying hard enough.
