This is phenomenal stuff, courtesy of Blogger Interrupted. It’s the 2008 version of the classic Heavy Metal Parking Lot! But at least those headbanger kids were just having fun or whatever — it’s not like any of them were registered to vote. [Blogger Interrupted]

“Here's The Pitch—It'll Be A Combination Of 'Northern Exposure', 'Peyton Place', and 'The Dukes Of Hazzard'! Pretty Good, Huh? Hello? Hell-oooooo?”There was a consideration before this past week that some of us here at GNB go to Mary Tyler Moore-opolis to cover the Republican Convention. I'm so glad we didn't as it would have not only been a waste, but it would have screwed the correct context for experiencing the whole thing all to hell.This ...

Former Republican presidential candidate and current village idiot, Mike Huckabee: MINNEAPOLIS -- Former presidential candidate Mike Huckabee told NBC/NJ today that the recent wave of potentially-damaging news stories about Sarah Palin – including news that her teenage daughter is pregnant – represents a "sexism that is really, really disgusting and embarrassing," and could ultimately galvanize support for the GOP ticket. Calling media critiques of Palin "unprecedented" ("they never did this to Chelsea Clinton," he said), ...

Filed under: Gaming, App StoreI mentioned Super Monkey Ball this afternoon, but I neglected to mention Freeverse's update last week to Wingnuts Moto Racer -- now named Moto Chaser -- to version 1.1. The update adds new music tracks and pause functionality, as well as moves the "punch" button to the right side. The default difficulty setting is also lower. All the changes were made with feedback from users, with the exception of the name: ...

cartoon from here. Oh geez, the christianist group American Family Association has their panties in a twist about Hallmark Cards and their new line of Gay Marriage Greeting Cards. I have to agree with AFA on one point: “Hallmark is a private company obviously driven by greed.” Duh. Hallmark is not selling a lifestyle, they’re selling product. These cards sell because people in love with each other are getting married! But would the greedy wingnuts ...

Everyone knew this presidential election was going to be ugly and now the gloves are off. Unable to run on issues, the Republican attack machine is in full swing and as always, we are inundated with endless smears, lies and attacks from a party that is in a steep, painful and very public decline. Silent Patriot posted yesterday about “author” Jerome Corsi’s appearance on Larry King Live where he was dismantled by Media Matters’ Paul ...

In any party or political movement, there’s bound to be a mainstream and a fringe. As a rule, the fringe looks to the mainstream for validation, and the mainstream looks at the fringe as kind of icky. Things get interesting, of course, when the line between the mainstream and the fringe blurs. Take the Republican National Committee, for example. The RNC is a fairly predictable, far-right animal. It’s run by lobbyists and business interests who ...

Letters, we get letters, we get stacks and stacks of... ok, it might not be piling up in the corners, but the number of emails that show up in the in ye olde email box can be daunting. While many of the letters are thoughtful and insightful, others are simply chock full of nutty goodness. This is especially true of the attack waves sent by the fighting keyboardists at the urging of their favorite talking ...

In Obama’s speech in Berlin yesterday, the presumptive Democratic nominee explained early on, “I speak to you not as a candidate for President, but as a citizen – a proud citizen of the United States, and a fellow citizen of the world.” The last four words seem to have caused a stir at McCain HQ and in far-right circles. Apparently, “citizen of the world” sounds like one-world government or something. But before conservatives get too ...

Have you seen the new movie about The Batman? If so, you know what everybody is talking about: How dead Heath Ledger is super awesome as the crazy-ass Joker terrorist. How the idiot George W. Bush is exactly like the heroic Englishman, The Batman. “There seems to me no question that the Batman film The Dark Knight, currently breaking every box office record in history, is at some level a paean of praise to the ...

At Wednesday’s night debate for Republican presidential candidates, one of the more notable exchanges pitted Mitt Romney and John McCain on the issue of torture. Romney, flustered, struggled to explain his position on waterboarding. McCain, confident, claimed the high ground: “I would hope that we would understand, my friends, that life is not 24 and Jack Bauer. Life is interrogation techniques which are humane and yet effective.” The crowd in the auditorium applauded. The collection ...

Faiz caught this the other day and I wanted to post the video. William the Bloody Kristol was a guest on CSPAN and took a call from an Iraq "war wife," and she let him have it. She obviously knew what she was talking about because she brought up the warmongers over at the American Enterprise Institute as people promoting this war. She called on the chickenhawks to institute a draft to give these suffering ...

This is rich…This administration is riddled with liars and hypocrites… Randall L. Tobias, the deputy secretary of state responsible for U.S. foreign aid, abruptly resigned yesterday after he was asked about an upscale escort service allegedly involved in prostitution, U.S. government sources said. I'm sad today," said one person close to Tobias. "The president loves him and Condi absolutely loves him." White House officials said Rice briefed Bush on the matter early yesterday before he ...
