Did somebody tell this kid he will spend his entire adult life paying for the Iraq War?
For mayor of Pottersville
Or perhaps lord of hell

They're getting worse every day. Is this Karl Rove's baby picture?

Tea Party poster child, part deux
Actually, I've read that this was taken at a pro-war demonstration in Missouri in 2003. From what I've seen of Tea Party signs, they would have spelled "brain" as "brian."

I fear that some right-wing rubber-room refugees may think I'm serious.
Inside Sarah Palin's Church?
No, not really. This was somewhere in Tennessee. But she used to belong to a Pentecostal church that, among other things, buys into speaking in unknown tongues and faith healing. And then, there's this thing about handling venomous serpents ...
If Texas were again an independent republic ...

Manifesto Joe's Great Moments In Conservative History, Chapter 5: Granddad Bush's Nazi Connection
As all my posts state, I am an underground writer living in Texas. I am doing political blogging under a nom de plume for various reasons. I was born in 1956 in a small Texas town; I now live in a medium-large city. I have been writing my entire adult life, and have been published, both mainstream and underground. In my teens I was actually a libertarian-type conservative. Meeting Young Republican types in college was crucial to my being cured of that once and for all. At one point in my 20s I was something of a Trotskyite, but eventually became a more moderate progressive.
Since I started this blog and affiliated with other blogs, my writing has appeared in the USA Today, CNN and Reuters online editions, in Buzzflash.com, Crooks and Liars, and a number of other popular sites. My invaluable mentors have been Marc McDonald at BeggarsCanBeChoosers.com, and Blue Girl of They Gave Us a Republic and other fine blogs.
In keeping with anonymity, this is all I should say.
Remember when the MSM actually ran journalism once in a while? A rare 1998 appearance by Barlett and Steele.

My thoughts exactly. They are definitely among the 4% of "throwbacks" who ought to be thrown AWAY!
And there is a similar analogue?
