We haven't really been educating you guys on the Chilean miner crisis.
I hope this clears things up. (More reading on the wife and mistress saga here.)
Oh good, someone is driving a decommissioned missile around Ground Zero in protest of the mosque.
Don't worry, the dummy sometimes does the Strangelove.
Jan Brewer is the current governor of Arizona and the woman responsible for its Nazi Immigration law.
She struggles enough with English that I can demand to see her papers, right? Reasonable suspicion! It's the law!
How does Barry's Oval Office Makeover stack up historically? Better than his presidency! (Try the veal!) Prepare yourself for ugly curtains and tasteful Republicans.
Glenn Beck has launched a new website, called The Blaze, which he hopes will be a Conservative answer to The Huffington Post. As he explains in his manifesto for the site, “The image of flame is a powerful.” So you know he's taking this thing pretty seriously.
The New Left Media took to the National Mall in Washington D.C. to interview the participants on Glenn Beck's “Restoring Honor” rally.
As always, the responses from Beck's minions prove to be as entertaining as they are horrifying.
The folks over at Wonkette discovered Facebook's best and brightest this weekend after searching the term “mosk” on openbook. The search results are sure to make you swell with civic pride.
The former George W. Bush campaign manager and RNC chairman finally admitted he's gay.
He is now working “to advance the cause of same-sex marriage,” which should be a great consolation to all the individuals who had to put up with 8 years (and then some) of homophobic governance thanks to him and his bosses.
Chris Young's mayoral campaign strategy includes proposing to his girlfriend during a debate (around the 2:47 mark) and singing for local Providence news anchors. Let's all establish residency in Rhode Island and vote him in.

Bessemer, Alabama, mayoral candidate Dorothy Davidson had a campaign poster printed up with this image to indicate that she had been endorsed by Crimson Tide Head Coach Nick Saban.

From a WaPo Poll: “the number of people who now correctly identify Obama as a Christian has dropped to 34 percent, down from nearly half when he took office.”
Also this zinger: “Among those who say Obama is a Muslim, 60 percent say they learned about his religion from the media.” That is some good learnin' you did, America. A+.

Your favorite corrupt governor-turned-Celebrity Apprentice was found guilty on only 1 of 24 charges—lying to the FBI.
The jury was deadlocked on the remaining 23. There will almost certainly be a retrial.
This nice doctor chugged some maple syrup and put on a silly accent just for you.

Dr. Laura Schlessinger is in trouble again, this time for using the n-word 11 times over the course of 5 minutes. If you actually needed more proof that Dr. Laura is clueless, an excerpt is below. (Obvious “offensive language” warning.)
