Tea Party/Republican Sharron “You Look Asian To Me” Angle has decided that last month’s ad featuring a photo of Mexican men in Mexico was apparently too subtle in its fear-mongering appeal to voters in her challenge to Sen. Harry Reid, and in true Nevada fashion has decided to double down and go for broke.

Her new ad depicts images of menacing-looking Latino men next to images of white school children. Keep it KKKlassy, Sharron!

The Sports Department here sends a fond auf wiedersehen to the 2010 winner of the Stinque Golden Vuvuzela, Paul the Octopus, who died of old age on Tuesday in Germany. Paul rocketed to global fame this summer when he correctly predicted the outcome of all of Germany’s World Cup games as well as Spain’s victory in the championship game, and of course when he later won the Golden Vuvuzela for Hottest Hottie of the World Cup with 51% of Stinque readers’ votes.

eMeg is now trailing Attorney General Moonbeam by 13 points in the race for California Governor according to the LA Times, despite (or because of) her infusion of more than $140 million of her own money in the race.

What better time for her to pull out a Hail Mary move than to run an ad that rivals Christine O’Donnell’s “I’m not a witch” ad?

June Cleaver died today at age 94. But I will always remember her for this:

GOP New York candidate for Governor “Carl Has Two Families” Paladino’s family, er families, values rant on Sunday in front of a crowd of Hasidic Jews got more attention at the time for his anti-gay diatribe, but at the speech he also said:

“We must stop pandering to the pornographers and the perverts who seek to target our children and destroy their lives.”

Well you all know what comes next.  Assume the position for the hypocrisy drill, boys and girls. Assume the position.  In light of Carl’s fixation on pornography and teh gheyz, WNYMedia, the news outlet that in April released the obscene (horsefucking) and racist emails that Paladino had sent to half of Buffalo, has now released eight different completely NSFW pornographic videos and photos that he sent to practically every prominent businessman or politician in Western New York.  NSFW after the jump.

As everyone by now knows, Carl Paladino, the GOP candidate for New York Governor, went on an anti-gay rant on Sunday to a crowd of Hasidic Jews, saying that he didn’t want children “brainwashed” that homosexuality is acceptable. The next day he “clarified” his comments by explaining it is because gay pride parades are disgusting and terrible and feature “men in Speedos bumping and grinding” against one another and that his opponent Andrew Cuomo was wrong to bring his daughters to the parade. (This was a few days after the man who has two families went on a bizarre tirade describing Cuomo’s legendary prowess in remarks to reporters. Somebody has a dick fascination. Or tea-bagging?)

Well, naturally it’s time for the other shoe to drop. The hypocrisy wing-tips fit him so nicely.

The No-Longer-ARCO/BP gas station that’s on the corner of Castro and Market across from Harvey Milk Plaza and catty-corner to the Twin Peaks Tavern, one of the oldest gay bars in SF [with some of the oldest gay men, badump!] apparently decided it wanted to invoke a boycott, as this morning its owner allowed The Liberty Freedom Foundation* to put up a billboard advertising the Snowbunny grifter’s speech on Oct. 14 at San Jose’s Center for the Performing Arts.

Victor Cocchia, executive director of this bizarro foundation, told the San Francisco Chronicle that “the Castro is supposed to be about a message of tolerance, and we hope that tradition stays.  Hopefully, people will listen with an open mind…at least they heard it straight from us.”

I’ll go by the station this evening and report as to whether the sign is still there or if a mob of gheyz have torn it down in response to the middle finger from Palin supporters.

*No, really, click on the linque, their website is hilarious…
