Get It Now ›The folks from New Left Media take to the capitol building to interview the tea party mob one last time about the impending health care reform bill. Oh yeah, the circus was in town too. Awesome timing tea-baggers.
Politics Buzz Jon Stewart is funny and Glenn Beck is a Category 5 idiot. Which we all knew already, but it's nice to see it reaffirmed with such vigor.
It smells like hope in one Brooklyn bodega. There they are, sandwiched as usual between “Egyptian Musk” and “White Diamond.” Obama Incense sticks, FTW.
Because nothing says, “I'm a Christian” like yelling abuse at the sick. [Ed Note: Not to state the blindingly obvious here, but Teabaggers make the Baby Jesus cry. :( ]
I guess this doesn't work quite so well when you're trying to charm the House into voting for health care. Might be worth a shot, though. (Thanks to Turtlefeed.)

John Edwards' mistress finally gave an interview, in which she verifies basically everything that's been said about her in a bewilderingly sunny manner. The Daily Beast also has a graphic description of the Rielle/Edwards sex tape. Enjoy.
Politics Buzz Jonathon “The Impaler” Sharkey is running for President. The 45-year-old doesn't date anyone over the age of 20, was accused of brainwashing a 16-year-old he was engaged to up until last month, and is running as a Republican candidate. Apparently Vampires don't believe in abortion. Check out his interview with the local news in here.

Oliver Stone was totally right about those Daddy issues. Also, there's a naked lady in that painting.
You know you've got some serious crazy beneath your unwashed hair when you make teabaggers look like a meeting at the Algonquin Round Table.

Choire Sicha has some Census advice for you, so you don't raise any red flags. Related: I Googled to find out whether I'm legally required to fill out my Census form (just curious!) and obviously the first result was Ron Paul's website. RP says you don't have to fill out your form, but I probably will anyway, because quizzes are fun.

Constance McMillen just wanted to take her girlfriend to the prom. The local Mississippi school board said no, and the ACLU is suing to have the prom go on. Get involved! (via Roger Ebert)
Politics Buzz New Survival Seed Bank Let's You Plant A Full Acre Crisis Garden!! Wait, what? You guys, this will be better than gold once the “emerging totalitarianism” occurs. Want! [Via]
Politics Buzz Remember the strongly anti-gay-rights, family values California state senator who got caught drunkenly driving home from a gay club last week? Turns out it was because he was gay! That explains so much. Roy Ashburn told a radio interviewer this morning: “I'm gay. … Those are the words that have been so difficult for me for so long.” Mystery solved!
Stay tuned for the last 30 seconds. Megyn Kelly's lawyer totally knows his porn. [Ed Note: A student group called Atheist Agenda is giving out pornography in exchange for Bibles and generally pissing everybody off. Fortunately, Christians on campus are giving out Bibles in exchange for porn in retaliation. Sounds like a good opportunity to upgrade your porn collection through the Bible exchange hierarchy.]

California state senator Roy Ashburn (R-Calif.) was pulled over and arrested for drunk driving Wednesday morning. Sources say he was leaving a gay nightclub and that an unidentified male was with him. Not just a river in Egypt etc.
When the inevitable comes, I at least want the assurance that America's Commander in Chief will be up there somewhere, shooting at wolves from the Presidential helicopter.
Politics Buzz President Obama is the new Ashlee Simpson. [Ed Note: This'll show all those haterz who keep accusing him of relying too much on the teleprompter.] (Via Gotcha Media.)
Amazingly, this does not appear to be a joke. [Ed Note: Shame on we, y'all. I mean, I dunno, this is kind of mesmerizing. I like that they let their friend who can't actually rap join in provided that he wore his tie around his head like a headband.]
Politics Buzz Must watch of the day: all the SNL ex-presidents (Ferrell, Carrey, Akroyd, Chevy, Hammond, and Carvey) visit Obama with some banking advice. Also features Maya “Michelle” Rudolph in a short robe. Something for everyone.
