“The Log Cabin Republicans of Los Angeles — the largest such gay GOP organization in the country — is holding a Tea Bag Toss at Christopher Street West, the Los Angeles Pride celebration this weekend… ‘Participants will purchase a tea bag and win a prize if they can successfully throw it through the open mouth of one of three politicians on the game board.'” [SFGate, via TPM]

Oh, for Christ’s sake…

In light of what’s going down in South Carolina right now — with not one, not two, but three Demrat primary candidates suspected of being plants by a shadowy, wealthy political conspiracy — why do we choose instead to devote the morning post to failed California Secretary of State candidate Orly Taitz?

Because she’s adorable, that’s why.

And besides, with events moving so rapidly, we’ll probably have some fresh SC developments by the time we wake up.

Sad news in the world of real, red-blooded football and not the wussy kind they are going to “celebrate” starting tomorrow: Los Angeles no longer has a professional football team.  The bill for University of Seventh Choice: bowl eligibility yanked, 2005 national championship trophy repossessed, scholarships cut drastically.  (“Scholarship.”  There’s a turn-of-phrase for you.  But anyway.)

Of course, Pete Carroll (l., with Reggie Bush) won’t be around for the downfall, in that he is now coaching the Seattle Seahawks.  He bravely hit the silk after last year’s disastrous season (complete with spanking at hands of Tree). 

[Come to think of it, Mr. Bush didn’t fare too badly either, what with his fancy new ring courtesy of the Saints’ winning the Super Bowl in February.  Sadly, though, Reggie may become the second U$C tailback to be de-Hesimaned.  Impressive, when you think about it.]

But all that needs to be said, really: it couldn’t have happened to a more appropriate set of bastards.

Are they live or augmented? Wingnut blogger TigerHawk summarizes:

Sarah Palin’s breasts are suddenly the objects of great interest on the left, not because of their obvious appeal, but as an opportunity to accuse her of having enhanced them with implants. This controversy follows an earlier obsession with Sarah Palin’s medical care, the election-year spat over whether she is indeed the mother of her son Trig or (alternatively) was reckless in flying back to Alaska to give birth to him.

While we can’t deny that lefty blogs are, um, milking the story for all it’s worth, for the record it appears to have originated at the Boston Fox affiliate:

The former Alaska governor was spotted at the Belmont Stakes in New York last weekend looking bustier than usual, prompting many to wonder if she’s gotten a boob job.

Palin’s newfound perkiness even bumped “Heidi Montag” and “implants” off the most Googled list.

Profile whores Kitty Harris and Michele Bachmann were unavailable for comment.
