The Americake Is Baked

If you’re at a McCake-eating party on November 4th, and you see this cake, it means you’re on the receiving end of a landslide loss of historic proportions. The upside is, Obama— and all Americans— have been granted the opportunity to dramatically change America’s current disastrous course, avert impending catastrophe, and embark on a new era of breath-taking change that …

Plumbing the Depths of Deplankitude

Sarah did a sitdown phone interview with James Dobson.
She may have even had some notes, but they didn’t have anything in them about the very very strong planks that form the floor foundation of the Republikin party. I can’t be sure if these are direct quotes, but ya know, I think they’re viry viry close.
