Thursday Stuff

Of course, as far as "breaking the barrier," Gerry Ferraro really did that running with Walter Mondale in '84, but Moon Unit Bachmann has never been one to let stubborn things like facts get in her way (of course, Ferraro was intolerable during the '08 presidential campaign, but that's a whole other story).

Yep, Palin-Bachmann 2012 works for me too. "Plummeting the depths of stupid"...well no, I really don't suppose they'd use that as a campaign slogan either, though they easily could.

But as always when talking about the wingnuts, we lefties shouldn't chortle too loudly; Chris Bowers pointed out earlier that this little party captured on film drew about 10,000 people. And the presidential election campaign for real is still about a year and half away...

..."Worst Persons" (Gov. Pawlenty of Nothing attended the previously-featured Palin-Bachmann brown shirt rally, of course, and, as Wonkette tells us, bought the domain name for the site and used it to redirect web traffic to his own address - hey, any garden variety Republican hack can cast aspersions about Dems, but it takes a truly crafty sycophant to steal bandwidth at the same time; Sean Inanity indirectly invites a comparison between Obama and Number 43, which, as Keith notes, really isn't a good idea; but Tom Coburn takes it for claiming that it took "courage" to deny unemployment benefits to over 200,000 people...no, you sick bastard, what would really show courage from you is YOUR RESIGNATION)...
