 | | Democrats For Romney - 91 sec
Democrats of Michigan, on January 15th you have a unique and wonderful opportunity to screw over the Republican Party.
For more on why voting for Romney in your primary--however counterintuitive it may be to vote for that flip-flopping, say-anything-to-get-elected, neocon-of-convenience hack--isn't such a crazy idea, check out:
http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2008/1/10/2713/87225
Lest there be any confusion, showing Romney's old stances as a less-than-diehard conservative in Massachusetts is intended to emphasize his ubercynical ability to shape-shift into desirable forms, not to suggest he's a somehow tolerable closet moderate who is simply pretending to be a detestable right wing nut. I don't mean to suggest he should be given the benefit of any doubt in that direction--that's by no means the reason Michigan Dems should cast their vote for him January 15th.
In the rough and real world of politics, Progressives can't afford for voting to be an emotional act of personal expression. It has to be pragmatic, strategic, and effective. So, just this weird once...go Romney. Though it burns my fingers when I type it.

| | The Loneliest Icelander - 165 sec
Iceland just had one "troop" on the ground in Iraq, (actually a press aide, not a soldier--Iceland has no standing army), but that didn't stop Bush from counting them as an equal member of his disappearing "coalition."
We aren't hating on you, Icelanders. We're jealous of what you enjoy--a lack of military entanglements, a terrific standard of living, and a genetic predisposition for high cheekbones.
Welcome home.

After pressure from Bill OReilly, the folks at Jetblue have decided to shamefacedly back away from their modicum of sponsorship for YearlyKos, a netroots conference. Apparently they think the progressive movement is to be sold down the river whenever Fox News is displeased.
Well fuck you, Jetblue. Those little screens in the seats are too small anyway.

Ladies... Check him out here: www.myspace.com/paulwolfowitz43. Let the wolf howl.
Breaking up is hard to do. So what kind of dicks are we?
These are dark days for Paul Wolfowitz. His girlfriend broke up with him last week, after he left his job in disgrace for getting said girlfriend a gig. That, after helping start the Iraq war...his downfall would be tragic if it weren't so completely fucking awesome.
So if it's wrong to celebrate the swift demise of a contemptible bastard, wrong me up.

Note: John Aravosis at Americablog helpfully points out that the firing list is, of course, a list of US Attorneys rather than Attorneys General.

John Edwards, unambiguously married Presidential candidate, was recently called a "faggot" by that delicate flower Ann Coulter.
I like Edwards a lot, but there certainly are catty, evil, and accurate things she could have called him. "Born poor white trash" maybe, or a "do-gooder."
The fact that she chose to call Edwards a "faggot" just goes to show: even at her most vile and mean-spirited, the woman is fundamentally incapable of getting her facts straight.
The fact that this totally slayed her audience reveals another truth about the movement she represents: what do conservatives find funny?
Fox News, please take note regarding your new, apocalyptically bad show.

I'd like to clarify something about our little vid: hopefully it is clear this is intended to kick Karl Rove while he's down, not mock anyone unfortunate enough to receive "stop loss" orders.
That's something I've never understood when I read about the anti-war movement in the seventies—why all the anti-troop sentiment? By contrast, as a guy who currently attends a fair amount of anti-war meetings, marches, and the like, I can honestly say I've never heard anything remotely untoward said about military personnel. Instead, there is inevitably heartfelt expression of empathy, concern, and—to echo an overused term—support. Just so's ya know.
If folks would like to debate which side of the political fence "supports" the armed forces, have at it. First, please check out how the administration provides for our vets: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/02/17/AR2007021701172.html

It bears saying, having dropped the names of several Progressive websites here, that we're unaffiliated with those sites. Frankly, they are terribly serious people who will probably find our little impeachment carol more than a little juvenile.

An Unreal Love Story.
Thanks to everyone who helped make this:
Robert Kennedy--DP, AD, PA, he does it all
Josh and Nyima Funk--Music
David DeAngelis, Chris Marrs, Julia Saboda, Rima Yazbeck--Performers
We wanted to take one of the most violent, sick, fun games of all time--with all its weirdly oversexed-looking characters--and turn it into something else. Josh Funk wrote some spectacular music.
Thanks for watching,
Andy
