GOP strategery-extraordinaire Karl Rove is so disgusted by Washington DC’s gay marriage approval he is divorcing his wife in protest. Now this is a guy dedicated to his base and his doctrine. Either that or a fucking hypocrite but I just copy/paste bullshit and call it a political humor site so what the hell do I know.

Jay Leno: “In Washington, it looks like the Senate is almost done with the health care bill, otherwise known as the Joe Lieberman Insurance Company Preservation Act. That’s what it’s called now.”

Jay Leno: “Speaking of Copenhagen on Friday, President Obama said ‘the time for talk is over.’ and then he went on to give a speech.”

Jimmy Fallon: “The Senate’s health care bill is expected to pass on Christmas Eve. Yeah. Because, really, what’s more American than waiting until Christmas Eve to finally wrap something up?

Jimmy Fallon: “Later president Obama told the kid he’s wanted them to hit the books and do their math. For example, if the US owes China $2 trillion but the US only has 20 bucks how screwed is the US? Show your work.”

Jay Leno: “Well, it does look like the Democrats have their 60 votes for healthcare. Harry Reid said this bill will save us hundreds of millions of dollars. Well, it would have, except for the hundreds of millions of dollars we had to pay to buy the 60 votes, but other than that…”

Conan O’Brien: “Did you hear about this? This was crazy. Yesterday, President Obama prank called a Washington radio station. He prank called the radio station, calling himself Barry from D.C. That’s a true story, yeah. Then just to mess him, Obama called Glenn Beck’s radio show as B. Hussein from Kenya.”

Well this video was a wonderful Christmas Eve surprise. This is worth watching just to hear how she pronounces “ruined”; fucking priceless. When asked why she opposes the bill you’d think her mental teleprompter broke. The party of “No” is now the party of “No concept of reality”.

MSNBC The Rachel Maddow Show – 23 December 2009: John Birch says Rachel was wrong when she said the John Birch Society’s call to impeach Supreme Court Justice Earl Warren was based on the Brown v. Board. She proves she was right.

The Senate version of the health reform bill passed another important hurdle this week. As usual everyone is pissed at Obama, this time even some progressives. I suppose they do have a point, he should have used his Jedi mind tricks to force Lieberman to allow a public option bill to pass the Senate. He is the Messiah after all, surely he could have done something.

Rachel Maddow of MSNBC digs into CSPAN archives regarding McCain’s recent remark towards Franken

McCain had complained about Franken’s denying Lieberman additional floor time and scoffed that he had ‘never seen anything like it’. Well apparently and not shockingly Senator Depends had done the same thing in the past during a debate on the Iraq war years ago. I do not expect McCain to recall what he ordered at the Early Bird Special the day before; much less something that long ago. So surely we can’t fault the old geezer.

Personally I’d still re-roll. America’s favorite MILF turned DIAF whore has earned another round of headline mentions by being honored with the “Best Lie of the Year” by website PolitiFact.com for her “Death Panel” remark made on her Facebook page.

Of all the falsehoods and distortions in the political discourse this year, one stood out from the rest.

“Death panels.”

The claim set political debate afire when it was made in August, raising issues from the role of government in health care to the bounds of acceptable political discussion. In a nod to the way technology has transformed politics, the statement wasn’t made in an interview or a television ad. Sarah Palin posted it on her Facebook page.

Jimmy Fallon: “Hey, last night I watched Oprah’s White House Christmas special. President Obama told Oprah he deserves a ’solid B-plus’ for his first year in office. That’s a big improvement from our last president, who for the last eight years received a ‘WTF.’

Stephen Colbert: “Yesterday, the Dems officially dropped from the Senate healthcare bill both the public option and an alternate plan for 55 to 65 year olds to buy into Medicare. At this point, the only reform left in the bill is government-mandated post-appointment lollipops.”

Conan O’Brien: “President Obama says that Congress is very close to getting a new healthcare plan, but due to compromises, it ‘won’t include everything that everybody wants.’ … For instance, it covers everything except trips to the doctor or the hospital.”

Jimmy Fallon: “And this is good. Democratic leaders are hoping to pass healthcare reform before Christmas. And really, what better Christmas present could Obama give the country than the gift of not having to talk about healthcare anymore?”

David Letterman: “Right about now, Santa Claus is making a list and checking it twice. Now why can’t the Secret Service do that?”

Jay Leno: “A Georgia couple showed up a day early for a tour at the White House — you know, just regular folks” — and “somehow wound up in an invitation only breakfast with President Obama and the First Lady. … The only two people that couldn’t get in the White House this year were John McCain and Sarah Palin.
