The Uncompromised Soul Of George W. Bush

President Bush may know he is unpopular. Hated even. But he’s feeling pretty good anyway. Is he suffering from the same delusion that has felled so many a politician before him?

Nah. Not this guy. In an interview with Fox News, still-president George W. Bush explains why he is not bothered by the fact that no […]

Joe’s Woes: The Life Of America’s Least Popular Senator

It Ain’t Easy Being Joe!

It is official! Dopey Joe Lieberman is no longer just the token pariah of the U.S. Senate, he is now also the honorable recipient of the people’s choice award for douchiest senator. Ever.

Yes, ladies and gentleman, it’s true! The charmingly cranky senator from Connecticut now boasts the “highest disapproval rating” in […]

Paulson Predicts No More Major Institutions To Fail; Public Braces For Certain Collapse

See Anything Out There, Buddy?

Uh-oh. Treasury Secretary and hapless soothsayer Henry Paulson told CNBC today that he is “expecting no other major institutions to fail.”

Which means the s**t is about to hit the fan. Nothing against ol’ Hank here, but his track record isn’t exactly what I’d call comforting.

Sure, his previous prediction about the banking […]

Warning: Thick-Haired Rats Spotted In Area!

It’s been nearly a week since Illinois governor and resident crime boss Hot Rod Blagojevich was arrested on enough corruption and bribery charges to make Dick Cheney jealous, and still the ever-humble public servant continues to go to “work” everyday to dutifully serve the people.Despite a record-low 7 percent approval rating, the resignation of fellow […]

Sweet Caroline To The Senate?

Barack And Caroline Pal Around

One of America’s last great remaining treasures, Caroline Kennedy, has decided to throw her (designer) hat into the ring and go for Hillary Clinton’s vacant senate seat, now that she’s moving on to bigger and better things as Obama’s hotshot Secretary of State.

Although it is still in the speculative stages, everyone […]

Bush To Shoe-Bomber: Bring It On!

President Bush’s popularity in the Middle East continued to soar on Sunday when an Iraqi journalist showed his love for the U.S. leader by hurling two shoes at him and shouting, “This is a goodbye kiss, you dog!”

Bush, who loves games and athletic competitions of all sorts, nimbly dodged the shoe-barrage, but thanked the man […]

White House To Obamas: Sorry We’re Booked!

Blair House: No Early Obamas Allowed!

The ever-classy Bush family turned down a request from president-elect Barack Obama to move into the White House’s guest quarters early so his two children Sasha and Malia can start school on time like normal kids on Jan. 5.

Unfortunately, the Obama’s were informed that Blair House, where incoming presidents usually […]

Much Like Their Cars, Auto Bailout Deal Sputters And Dies In Senate

The emergency $14 billion bailout for U.S. automakers went up in flames in the U.S. Senate after United Auto Workers (UAW) refused to accept Republican demands for swift wage cuts.

The tight-fisted Republicans (their lil $550 billion spree in Iraq doesn’t count) decided they just couldn’t give away good federal money to hard-working auto workers unless […]

Blago’s Future: Jail Cell Or Padded Walls?

A spokesman for salt-of-the-earth politician “Hot” Rod Blagojevich says the Illinois Gov. remained “upbeat and positive” as he returned to work for the second day since his sensational arrest for being a corrupt, no-good sleazebag of the highest order.

Lucio Guerrero, a spokesman for the embattled governor, said, “There’s a sense of trying to return to […]

Obama Assures Public Not All Politicians Are Lying, Sex-Crazed Crooks

Hangin’ With Obama

Suffice it to say, this has not been a great week for boosting the public’s opinion of politicians.

If it’s not one “straight” senator’s appeal getting turned down for pleading guilty to soliciting gay sex in a Minneapolis airport men’s bathroom (“wide-stance” Larry Craig), it’s another state representative losing their conviction appeal for offering […]
