Oh that is a thing of BEAUTY! <3

Have you heard about this yet? It's both ridiculously hilarious and utterly depressing. Oh, America, why. Mitt Romney, the only serious candidate we Republicans have (since I refuse to consider Newt Gingrich), has refused to attend.

[elisi]

I hadn't, no. And Republicans are a strange, strange thing... I mean, Obama is to the right of our Conservatives, so most Republicans (even the 'moderate' ones) come across as... deeply peculiar (or, in cases like Sarah Palin, hilarious & terrifying in equal measures).

Don't forget Herman Cain quoting The Pokemon Movie!

YEP!

I trust in NPR to keep me informed generally and Jon Stewart to keep me informed of the ridiculous.

[gabrielleabelle.livejournal.com]

I stick to the NY Times for US politics and Al Jazeera for worldwide news. And, of course, Jon Stewart for the lulz. Lulz are desperately needed.

[masakochan.livejournal.com]

Did you see Jon Stewart's recent segment about the 'War on Christmas'? xD

[elisi]

They brought this up last night on Have I Got News For You... *g*

Oh GOP. However rubbish our politicians may be, they don't have the Star Quality Crazy Stupid that you've got over there. (They also played the clip where he's trying to remember which one's Libya...)

I loled.

[eve11]

It's up to 6000-odd likes and 305000 dislikes now.

I watched it and now I need a brain bleach. Ugh.

ETA: That partisans vid up above did help to erase some of the horror. LOL, that was awesome.

[elisi]

I have NOT watched it, and I never intend to. Had enough with Sarah Palin. *shudders*

HAHAHAHAHA

Thanks for the good news!

[elisi]

I felt we all needed some more cheer in our lives! :)

I was so happy to be able to add my little "dislike" thumbs down on Perry's piece of crap. What an inordinate lackwit.

[elisi]

I love your choice of words. :)

[kaffy_r]

Heh. I'm trying to work with both "lackwit" and, in extreme circumstances, "fuckwit." That allows me to call some one a complete moron, or suggest that their mental capabilities are less than they should be, without running afoul of hurting people who have loved ones who may have to deal with true cognitive challenges in their daily lives. The "k" sound, together with "wit" provides me most of the intense, visceral joy I get from other types of swearing, without the possible problems.

If that makes any sense ....

[elisi]

Of course it does! (I love words. <3)
