Filed under: Failure, Elsewhere, This Could be Longer — admin @ 11:18

The America Spectator story by editor Patrick Howley who “infiltrated” the Occupy DC protest has been reported with heavy edits. Comments such as “…in order to mock and undermine in the pages of The American Spectator” have been removed with no correction. The original, after the jump.

Joe the Plumber and an uncredited friend at an Arizona GOP Tea Party fundraising event, July 2011. This is the new ideological leadership of America’s current politics. But will this new faction survive is obvious challenge, plugs or no plugs?

Is this the worst web ad of all time? I think it’s the worst web ad of all time.

Bonus: After the jump, Beck talks with his fatass wife about what makes for a successful marriage (other than keeping your old lady from turning into a cow).

Yes, a day of fasting in Haiti. Fasting. In Haiti. There are jokes to be made but, I mean, what the fuck is wrong with you Franklin Graham?

Pawlenty Family Wish You a Merry Christmas. Freedom First PAC Pays for the Wish

pawlenty-photoshopped-christmascard.jpg

Uh Oh. Somebody at the Tim Pawlenty campaign is going to be getting a lump of coal for Christmas. The link to “Support Tim Pawlenty’s Freedom First PAC” in the Presidential hopeful’s Christmas card/fund-raising email, is broke. The code behind the link is “http:// support tim pawlenty’s freedom first pac         paid for by freedom first pac. not authorized by any candidate or candidate’s committee.  www.timpawlenty.com  /” Whoopsie! Good thing the Donate Now button below it works.

This brings us to the second question: Is Mary Photoshopped in this Christmas photo? Because it really looks like Mary is Photoshopped in this photo. (Did Pawlenty go “to the cloud?“)

Finally, please note that while the fine print at the bottom of the card may be mistaken as the spirit of Christmas, it is actually a disclaimer about how the Freedom First PAC paid for the Pawlenty family’s Christmas card. And what says protecting the spirit of the holiday from the War on Christmas more than “$5,000 maximum contribution per calendar year is not tax deductible for federal income tax purposes?”

I was hoping Deadspin’s “Days of Reckoning” would be about Gawker Media finally paying me for that thing I wrote for Deadspin six months ago.

Apparently not.

This is an actual thing. Written by an actual reporter.
