Hey everyone! Let’s all deconstruct a Sarah Palin Op-ed!
Obviously there is no media outlet that views itself as being part of ‘the media.’ This is problematic, especially when media outlets write pieces about how Sarah Palin is juicing the media cycle by hopping on issues at the height of their short-lived, American attention span induced popularity (remember when Dave Letterman had an affair, or something? me neither).
Every editorial [...]

Do yr part: take a vacation!
Hey, you. Yeah, you, you monkey-suit waring, coke snorting, 80-hours-a-week working, “I’ve-always-been-a-hard-worker”-ing, sad, sad bastard. Your ambition is fucking up the economy. Do us all a favor and head for the Hamptons. Read a book.
Uncle Sam wants YOU.

U.S. not alone in senseless expressions of intolerance (but we still do it better)
Swiss voters overwhelmingly approved a ban on the construction of Minarets — the doohickeys they put on top of mosques that, these days, often contain the PA system used for prayer calls (function meets form!).
What the hell, Switzerland?
Turns out the debate crosses borders, and the ball has been moving ever-so-slowly rightward (i.e. racist-ward) since the [...]

Way to nuance, you fat fuck. Your brain is made of lard. There is lard inside your skull, where a brain should be. And that’s why you say these things.
“If you [President Obama] go to West Point tomorrow night (Tuesday, 8pm) and announce that you are increasing, rather than withdrawing, the troops in Afghanistan, you are the new war president. [...] Have you drunk Bush’s Kool-Aid?” -Michael Moore
Whats your bright idea, you fat, stupid bastard? Oh, found it!

This post expresses a form of sympathy for Sarah Palin, so we got a Drudge Siren to draw attention to it.
When you’re famous, you have to do things like, I don’t know, wash thoroughly under the arms, wear things that match, and, when things get really crunched, maintain a schedule.
On the other hand, if you’re a disgruntled, semi-employed Indianan, you needn’t do any of those things and, judging by the crowd in Noblesville, you assume [...]

Gosh-darnit: Palin uproots Presidential appointment procedure
Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin answered questions from People magazine readers this week as part of her book tour. Asked if she could “have one job in the White House tomorrow, what would it be,” Palin responded that she would like to take over from Rahm Emanuel.
“It would be chief of staff, so I could [...]
