In 2012 Concession Call, Romney Inferred Obama Won Just Because Of Success With Black Voters

Mitt’s manicured mind has more odd angles
Than paintings by M.C. Escher:
Yet more proof that one thing he possesses is
A gracelessness under pressure.

Thoughts About The Epidemic Of Stupidity

Facts are as dull as water ---
However, the essential truth
About conspiracies is they
Have a kick like vermouth.

Forget both logic and reason:
It’s more fun to let you
Believe that the government
Is really out to get to.

Far bigger than any majestic
And giant sequoia
Is the rush the uninformed
Get from paranoia.

(If memory serves, radio
Host Art Bell
Had a show that wasn’t
Doing well

Until he shifted from politics
To making queries
About all kinds of quite wild
Conspiracy theories.)

It’s nothing new --- some of you
May recall how fluoridation
Was a COMMUNIST PLOT TO
SUBJUGATE OUR NATION!

These folks are begging for attention:
Should we ignore them? That’s
The right idea --- let others decide to
Toss coins in their tin foil hats.

Moms In Charge Is A SoCal Group With Anti-Vaccine Views And A Unique Way Of Defending Its Position

The founder is Dotty Hagmier. Her middle
Name crosses one line
Of legitimacy: do you have much left if it
Happens to be Sunshine?

(That’s an acceptable name in 1968 if you’re
On acid and seeing weasels
At a Dead concert but not if you’re defending
A huge outbreak of measles.)

The words she uses make little sense: one
Could say her technique
Is reminiscent of you betcha-mama grizzly
Sarah Palin pageant-speak.

Look at the attached link and you’ll see her
Explanatory hype
Is nothing more than italics, capital letters
And bold face type.

Footage Released Of Gov. Christie Falling While Trying To Sit Down For A Radio Interview

This awkward moment made many
Die-hard supporters shiver ---
The chair turned up in concrete at
The bottom of the East River.

Irony (Vol. #17)

By far the most presidential thing 
Mitt Romney's ever done
Is his having decided not to make
Another presidential run.

Lindsay Lohan Felt Mingling With Her Fans Constituted Community Service

The only people who would
Ever try and do this
Are among the ranks of the
Colossally clueless.

It’s why we worship celebrities who
Will often seem so callow:
They offer glimpses into heretofore
Unknown depths of shallow.

A Few Thoughts About That Clint Eastwood-Bradley Cooper Collaboration

“American Sniper” ---
What the fuck.
A Chuck Norris movie
Without Chuck.

The Oscar controversy about Chris Kyle
May very well shift votes:
I suppose that one could blame this on
Some left wing swift boats.

But Republicans shouldn’t be complaining
About how this is playing dirty:
This is pretty much the same playbook that
They used on “Zero Dark Thirty.”
