Some comments about the Massachusetts Senate election…

I’ve been avoiding the health care insurance debate because of health issues… High blood pressure and popping veins in my forehead is apparently considered a pre-existing condition.
However, I cant ignore how people are protesting and chanting.
Across the country we have people mobilizing and traveling to congressional districts they don’t vote in so [...]
Over the last few weeks I’ve been seeing all sorts of video footage of the effects of “Cash for Clunkers” throughout the country.
But nowhere has it made more of a difference than in the lives of creepy child molesters. See, Clash for Clunkers allows them to trade in their 15 year old panel van [...]

Another 30 million dollars may yet be recovered as the shame campaign works its way through the AIG ranks.

President Obama is ushering in a new age [...]

We here at pen have long been fans of the Get Your War On cartoon that David Reese has been releasing regularly since 2001. The cartoon has been mentioned here several times in the past and is regularly linked on our forum.
However, the author has decided to stop releasing the cartoon now that Bush [...]
Yesterday, during the inauguration of President Barack Obama, Vice President Dick Cheney was confined to a wheelchair.
Rumor has it that he injured his back moving out of his current residence, and a doctor recommended he spend several days in the chair to speed his healing. Unfortunately this was not the whole story.
You see, Mr. [...]

Dear progressive media,
Please stop using the term “Global Warming”. You are leaving yourself open for ridicule.
If you are going to discuss this topic please say “Climate Change” instead… especially when its so cold outside that my penis inverts.
Sincerely,
Clem
