We wrap our edition of “Why Everything Sucks” with the following: Harry Reid, craven, useless chief of the cloakroom hangs on but Russ Feingold, progressive hero, is defeated… Did you also know you could fatally OD on caffeine? We leave the present in the gloved hands of Unkle Karl to journey to the center of [...]
Hmm. Lambchop and I still live in blue states, it seems. Elsewhere, the craziest crazies were not elected. America, you shock me! In keeping with the tenet that conservatives think everyone is out to get them, and liberals think everyone is incredibly stupid, I am rightfully nonplussed. No Sharron Angle, no Christine O’Donnell, no Linda [...]
This is just to say: At least Lambchop and I live in un-tea-partied upon states. Yet somehow Bristol Palin remains on Dancing With the Stars! Mysteries of the universe, you thwart us at every turn. Where I’m from, when you dress up for the War of Northern Aggression, you better mean it. Share:
After I voted, I was all: And then I was all: And by tomorrow, I will be all: Share:
First we were like this: Yay, election! We are going to refudiate the crap out of this! But then they were all: And we were all: And then it occurred to us that teabagging is currently untreatable in any form by Glaxo-Smithkline. One of us takes big guns crazy pills, and if *we* find the [...]
The more a republican landslide is predicted, the more it is repeated. It is not just a snowball, it is an abominable snowman.

In keeping with this year’s theme of crazy as well as in the spirit of sartorial exuberance, I also made sure to wear my ostrich fascinator and [...]
While Licketysplit is out voting her conscience on lunch and possibly other civic matters, we decided to torture ourselves by looking over the election maps. And we used to like the color pink! We are hoping for the best, but it seems like everyone is expecting nightfall to bring us a new Speaker to represent [...]
Jeezley creezley, Lambchop. Jump the gun much? I cannot possible hold the fate of democracy in my hands before I have had a restorative sandwich! Right now I am not sure which sandwich to have, so I could be a while. Please help me vote for a sandwich. Do I wish to have smoked salmon [...]
7 a.m., i put on my helmet and prepared for the worst. My last few elections in New York City, I was still pulling the lever, old timey-style. In a booth with a curtain, like my mother used to take me when I was 7, and I could run out crowing “I votered!” and terrorize [...]
