And then there is Saturday Night Live’s take on them. How low can you go?
Priceless comment–
John McCain (24+ / 0-)
Cost to produce at a hate-filled smear ad: $5,000
Cost of media buy to smear your opponent across the swing states: $900,000 per month.
Cost of having SNL expose McCain for the hypocrite and liar that he is: PRICELESS!
Bipartisanship isn’t going to happen as long as one of America’s two great parties believes that when it comes to politics, stupidity is the best policy.

A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered her altitude and spotted a man in a boat below.
She shouted to him, “Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don’t know where I am.”
The man consulted his portable GPS and replied, “You’re in a hot air balloon, approximately 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2346 feet above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude.
She rolled her eyes and said, “You must be a Democrat.”
“I am,” replied the man. “How did you know?”
“Well,” answered the balloonist, “everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to do with your information, and I’m still lost. Frankly, you’ve not been much help to me.”
The man smiled and responded, “You must be Palin.”
“I am,” replied the woman balloonist. “How did you know?”
“Well,” said the man, “you don’t know where you are or where you’re going. You’ve risen to where you are, due to a large quantity of hot air. You made promises that you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to solve your problems. You’re in exactly the same position you were in before we met but, somehow, now it’s my fault.”
Fluffy and Snowball are easily confused by election politics, but they are working hard to determine exactly where the candidates stand on the issues that are important to kittehs like themselves.
Normally I am not a big Oliver Stone fan, but the more I see about this movie, the more I am liking what I see. I can’t wait til it comes out and I can watch for myself.
It’s still scheduled to be released on the 17th of October.
Here I was, pissed-off about how Congress has been colluding with the President to dismantle our Constitution, how by all appearances a shadow dictatorship has been setup, and Congress overrides a veto. Well whoop-de-doo! Maybe if it was some issue that wasn’t overwhelmingly supported by the public, or if it wasn’t too little too late, it might have meant something. But they’ve already given the keys to the crooks and stood guard while they cleaned out the national treasury and sent the money to Lichtenstein, Dubai, and the Cayman Islands for Dick Cheney and his cronies to enjoy.
So what happens but I see this 2001 Onion article, a wonderful piece of prescience. Whoever wrote it had much more on the ball than you-know-who, our chimp-in-charge.
In case you’re unaware, the Onion is a news magazine of humor, parody, and cutting insight.
