George H.W. Bush and Barbara Bush:

George H.W. Bush and Barbara Bush won’t attend Ted Kennedy’s funeral tomorrow, the AP reports. All of the living presidents had been expected at the senator’s service in Boston, but the 85-year-old Bush changed his mind after learning his son would be among the mourners, a rep says. Bush [43] will “amply and well represent” the family, the spokesman says.

The only thing W “well represents” is his own disgusting legacy. We’re reminded of that every time he surfaces.

Interestingly, the Bushes were nearly edged out by this man.

I had to post this – from the Washington Independent. An RNC survey asks:

This is cool – shows you political contributions that occur near votes favorable (and  unfavorable) to a piece of legislation.  Here’s frequent Douchebag of the Day Chuck Grassley.  Here’s everyone’s favorite hooker fucker David Vitter.  And, for shits and giggles, here’s my senator: The Schume* – it appears no one gives him money.

Yet another reason Al Gore invented the internets.

*to Schume means to take credit for something you had absolutely nothing to do with.

Randall Terry:

The Moran town hall was the last stop on a 10-city tour for Randall Terry, the anti-abortion activist known for his extreme tactics.

Terry’s colleagues put on a skit with a man in an Obama mask pretending to whip a bloodied woman, who kept saying, “Massa, don’t hit me no more. I got the money to kill the babies.”

Terry himself dressed in a doctor’s lab coat and pretended to stab a woman in a gray wig.

“There’s no way to pay for this thing without killing granny,” Terry explained.

There’s really nothing I can add to that.

Upset that Obama hasn’t sent Cheney and his torture crew to The Hague?  Angry because we might not get a public option?  Calm yourselves, gentle snowflakes – things could be a lot worse:

Maybe you heard: George W. Bush stopped by Mustangs football practice this morning, where he told the team to “win one for Yom Kippur.”

I want video.  Now.
