This may get rant-y. I hate Cable TV. Hate it. I hate skimming through the hundreds of channels looking for the Weather Channel when it storms. I hate Comedy Central’s two-hour blocks of It’s Always Sunny in Danny DeVito’s Career and The Roast of Some Poor Sad Bastard From the 80’s Who Needs to Cover His Mortgage when… Read More Here’s $10, Bring Me the Head of Verizon FiOS
When does this guy manage to attack Democrats, I wonder? Which is something that “real” Republicans do from time to time. In other news, an anti-voter fraud group just claimed that there were 30,000 dead people registered to vote in North Carolina. But because…what?

You’re not gonna take it? No? You’re not gonna take it? Anymore? You’re not gonna let Paul Ryan use your one hit to introduce him? That’s, like, beneath you? You have serious moral issues with that? News flash, you aging no-homo drag queen: that piece of art you excreted all over MTV back in 1984… Read More Really, Twisted Sister?
