All of Mariah Carey’s dreams have come true, now that four types of Hello Kitty wine are set to hit the market. For who knows drinks better than a tiny cat without a mouth, eh? [Jezebel]

So the what do you do when you’re a political party, so bereft of ideas, competence and shame that the only people who still come out to support your efforts at reclaiming political power are a pack of gun crazy, racist John Birch conspiracy crazies?

Talibunny Exorts Her Minions to KILL! KILL! KILL! in the name of Jesus and America! Sieg Heil! Sieg Heil! Sieg Heil!

Frank Rich did the math in his column today and concluded that four of the Democratic congress members slated for elimination on the Talibunny’s death list have been subject to some kind of physical attack or death threat, an indication of the neofascist pin-up’s potency in driving the wingtard base to act on its most primitive impulses.

Kill! Kill! Kill! Talibunny taunts! Kill in my name! Ha! Hahaha! Hahahahahahahaha!

Review: “I can’t wait for ‘Bush and his Conservative Idiots: How the conservative machine gave us two wars, illegal concentration camps, wiretapping, used our own religion to brainwash the rest of the country, and sank our economy to the ground — not to mention the fact that we gained more enemies around the world.’”
