“Welcome to our newest grassroots Web site, Republican For A Reason.”

Presented by the Republican National Committee, where the only grassroots you’ll find are putting greens.

And featuring Ronnie, George I, and — not until 2:50 in — Shrub.

Because the best way to inspire a new generation of voters is to run footage of presidents from before they were born, before they paid attention, or whom they resent.

So your retirement account has been wiped out?  Your largest asset is now the half tank of gas left in your Honda?  Nice to know that AIG is spending your money on things that will make your life better:

Even as the company was pleading the federal government for another $40 billion dollars in loans, AIG sent top executives to a secret gathering at a luxury resort in Phoenix last week.

Again?

Reporters for abc15.com (KNXV) caught the AIG executives on hidden cameras poolside and leaving the spa at the Pointe Hilton Squaw Peak Resort, despite apparent efforts by the company to disguise its involvement.

Optics, optics, optics …

Just when we feared we’d have to start working for our material, Paul Broun, House Republican from Georgia, serves it up on a platter:

“You have to remember that Adolf Hitler was elected in a democratic Germany. I’m not comparing him to Adolf Hitler. What I’m saying is there is the potential of going down that road.”

Yes, yes, oh god, yes! It’s only been a week, and we didn’t realize how empty our life felt. Where are the terrorists of yesterday? Whither the socialists? Where have you gone, Michele Bachmann?

Sarah Palin. Fox News. Go.

“I’m like, OK, God, if there is an open door for me somewhere, this is what I always pray, I’m like, don’t let me miss the open door. Show me where the open door is.”

Caligutard Lunges for Michelle's Taut Delicious Derriere as Michelle Comforts Laura and President Elect Barack Obama Chuckles in Disbelief. "Everyone told me he was gay," Obama said, "Something about him and Victor Ashe being a thing."

The historic meeting of the Caligutard, America’s first mentally retarded president, and Barack Obama, America’s first mocha president elect, ended with Mr Obama pulling his wife, Michelle, away from the Caligutard when he lunged for her extended bottom as she leaned over to comfort First Lady Laura Bush, who lives in a perpetual state of suicidal depression from living with the president.

Michelle Obama jerked back suddenly when her husband pulled her away and she saw the Caligutard was displaying an erection that looked exactly like a donkey. “Ooooh, Pedro, he like you, senora,” Caligutard cooed.

While most of the media has decided it’s time to start ignoring Joe the Plumber, who is the most famous person in America or maybe even the whole universe, I will continue to follow him because I am a starfucker.
Joe’s official website is up. It’s called SecureourFreedom.com, which sounds exactly like many of the empty slogans that have marked the last eight years, but is different because the web site is awesome.  I highly recommend you visit every day.

Joe’s web site, which appears to have been developed in 1995, has exciting sections like, “Joe the Forum”, which is empty, “Joe in the Media” – empty- and Joe the Blogger, which is empty except for an add for Joe the Plumber’s forthcoming book. The book, called “Joe the Plumber: Fighting for the American Dream”, is ghostwritten by Samuel J. Wurzelbacher and some other no-name, and is also available in the “Joe the Shopper” section of the site. To make a long story short, Joe the Plumber is the most dynamic innovator on the internet and he is the real change we can believe in. [Secureourfreedom.com]

Lost in all the election news (at least to me) was the fact that Christopher Shays (R-CT) lost his seat:

NORWALK – Democrat Jim Himes rode history and Barack Obama‘s coattails to victory Tuesday in the 4th Congressional District, unseating Christopher Shays.

For the first time since the founding of the GOP in 1854, New England will be without a Republican in the U.S. House of Representatives.

Remember Chris Shays?
