Amazing.

Gawker - Now There Are Two Gay Republican Groups, For Both Openly Gay Republicans - The Gays:

"Which is why the Log Cabin Republicans, the saddest group in the world, are now basically just Democrats. Which has enraged a splinter group of conservative gay Republicans who are forming their own sad 527 non-profit that will be completely ignored by the party that depends solely on support from white evangelicals."

A Message From James Carville

I knew it was going to take an extraordinary effort to help pay off Hillary Clinton's campaign debt. But now, I think we can do it and have some fun at the same time!

James, I like you man, I really do and I love the former President and the Secretary of State.

That being said, they are worth $34.9 million.

Pimping yourself and the Former President for this cash seems a bit...obscene...especially as we are in a wonderful economic Depression right now.

Are there better ways to do this?  Yes, I believe there are.

Hmmm...maybe...they can sell some real estate?  Or would that be...wrong of me to ask?

The Accidental Gov Does Something Right

Gov. Paterson urges gay nuptials Senate vote:

"Gov. Paterson urges gay nuptials Senate vote on a gay marriage bill, even if there aren't enough votes to pass it."

Thanks, FAU

Also from the article...

"Senate Majority Leader Malcolm Smith, a Queens Democrat, supports the gay marriage bill but has not allowed a vote because he thinks it will be defeated.

"This is an issue that demands much more than a symbolic gesture," Smith spokesman Austin Shafran said.

Josh Meltzer, a spokesman for the Empire State Pride Agenda, said the organization is proud to have Paterson's support."

The Zomb-pocalypse is Near!

The story is horrible, but more frightening still, it suggests the imminent threat of a worsening zombie onslaught.
