Borowitz: Poll: Romney Still Doing Well With Voters Who Have Never Heard Him Speak

Remember how dirty libruls were spitting on the First Amendment by refusing to eat bigoted chicken? Well, the First Amendment is now oficially dead.

Chick-fil-A cried uncle, thus rending in twain the hearts of all the nimrods who shoved chicken sandwiches in their gaping maws in order to show their support for homophobia and bigoted assholery. Let's hear it for the gay agenda! Chick-Fil-A Agrees To End Donations To Anti-Gay Groups

Suck on it, Haters and Homophobes! Chick-fil-A thinks more of the almighty dollar than they do your pious and selfish social values. One day of morons standing in the sun to "show your support!!1!1!!" just showed the world what a bunch of genetic defectives y'all are. Now that the temps and the tempers have cooled, Chick-fil-A quietly sold your bigoted asses down the river. And I am laughing at you in your impotent, hateful rage. And your metabolic disorders.

Now that's the kind of spin that's capable of generating a gravitational field. Mary Matalin was out there trying to put a positive gloss on Mittens' faux pas of calling 47% of Americans parasites and losers, saying it's a good thing because now we can identify "who the parasites are." Personally, I look at Exxon and the big oil companies who pay less taxes than I do, and at Mitt Romney and his ilk who outsource jobs, close factories and raid pension funds. But that's just me and my Biology minor and the knowledge of what a parasite really is -- i.e. a pathogen to the host. For the record, plutocrats are a pathogen to our Democratic Republic.

What thew hell is wrong with the people in Phoenix that they keep electing Joe Arpaio? A woman who was in jail for a minor drug possession charge is dead, and her family is suing the jail and Arpaio for her death because she was a diabetic and they denied her medication and medical attention for days. She suffered through siezures, defecated on herself, vomited and screamed in agony -- but custodians at the jail said she was just kicking her habit and was getting what she deserved, and told her to "get over it." Finally, she slipped into a diabetic coma and died.

Ohio Secretary of State Reveals Plan To Further Restrict Voting

Sen. Orrin Hatch's (R-UT) Democratic opponent, Scott Howell, sent a fundraising letter on Sunday that made a case against Hatch based on the incumbent's age. He said that Hatch, who is 78, "is old enough to be my father and I don't want my father running the United States Senate Finance Committee." Howell added that Hatch could "die before his term is through." Hatch's campaign called the letter "offensive." In a June poll, Hatch led Howell 63 percent to 29.

Romney tape is missing two minutes that will probably lose Obama the election

Two days after everything changed because Mitt Romney made clear he really, truly does not care for 47% of America, conservative bloggers have finally found the key to saving Romney's ass from the comments they also think are entirely, completely awesome: there are two minutes missing from the 49 minutes of otherwise unbroken, unedited video, which something something liberal media.

David Corn of Mother Jones released the "complete" audio and video of the secretly recorded Mitt Romney speech at a private fundraiser.

Yet the complete audio and video is not complete. There is a gap in the recording immediately after Romney's now famous discussion of the 47% of voters who don't pay taxes. The cut in the audio and video comes while Romney is in mid-sentence, so we actually do not have the full audio of what Romney said on the subject.

We must explore…the Mitt Split. READ MORE »
