Mighty Forces

More Hillary humor, from Fafblog (via Balloon Juice).

Because it's better to laugh than cry. So much better.

Is it November yet?

This woman, Rosemary Watson, has a whole set of Hillary videos on YouTube. Recommended.

From Tales of Mere Existence:

I was chatting online with my wise and funny friend Jason this morning, and I told him that Bill O'Reilly said that we never invaded Iraq.

"Maybe Iraq fell on our army while taking a shower," he said.

Look at the narcoleptic cat, and all will be revealed.

I think the government has been testing this new weapon on me.

My current favorite web site:

JohnMcCainIsYourJalopy.com

Keep refreshing the page.

UPDATE: I can just see John McCain chuckling over his early bird special at Old Country Buffet as his opponents batter each other without him having to do a thing. It's an old man's dream - someone else always does the heavy lifting.

I'm so sick of this whole political season. I just want to hibernate until Christmas.

UPDATE II: Just got wind of the companion site: BarackObamaIsYourNewBicycle.com

Under the headline "Runaway lawnmower kills Buddhist monk":

A postmortem examination disclosed that Mr Handa had died of multiple injuries.

"Many observers believe Fidel Castro will either be replaced by his brother Raul, or by his idiot son, Fidel W. Castro."

-Letterman, last night

I love to be unhappy
I live to be in pain
When days are full of sunshine
I'm lookin' for the rain

I always send my steak back
My life is overdone
I have to be quite careful
that I don't have any fun

This is, as Gizmodo says, both the best and the worst thing ever. I felt I had to share.

"We can't bust heads like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to tell 'em stories that don't go anywhere - like the time I caught the ferry over to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for my shoe, so, I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. 'Give me five bees for a quarter,' you'd say.
Now where were we? Oh yeah - the important thing was I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time. They didn't have white onions because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones..."

Of course it's Grandpa, but it's also fun to read the quote in your head using Fred's voice.

(This post is dedicated to The Other Adam, who I think loves Grandpa Simpson as much as I do.)

Why does Santa need to see me when I'm sleeping?

That's just creepy.

Idaho Sen. Larry Craig, who pled guilty to soliciting gay sex in an airport bathroom, submitted a recipe to the "Congress Cooks!" cookbook (the exclamation point is theirs) called the "Super Tuber."

It involves, and I am not making this up, shoving a hot dog into a hollowed-out Idaho potato.

Profanity and bad grammar! It's a two-fer.

I think "Dr. Atheist Von Gay of France" is the best. name. ever.

What did we do before the Internet?

I saw this bumper sticker on a car in the parking lot this morning. It's just about perfect, isn't it?

I Believe in Evolution, Except for the Whole Triassic Period

I said at the beginning of the Bush administration that within 10 years or so the Onion would be irrelevant, because real life would become too much of a parody of itself. I wonder if this hasn't already happened.
