    Yeah Jon catapaulted to fame riffing on the Gore v. Bush election clusterfuck. But HE'S the one who brought cynicism to politics. It wasn't those fucking hanging chads or that fuckwad SCOTUS decision of 2000. But noooooooooooooooooooooo

    So, according to this "feedback loop" theory, congress critters do dumb things because their audience wants it. Right. And I totally want to get parking tickets. Because I see meter readers giving them out.


    what a weiner.

    Hard not to be cynical when the guy takes money from notorious Bronx slumlords - or at least from NORPAC, who takes in money from the slumlords. Shame on you Mr. Weiner, a lot of poor people have been evicted illegally by your friends.

    Speaking of doing dumb things, Congressmen, allow me to call your attention to this mirror.

    If I wanted to pick a fight, of course I'd choose a brilliantly witty opponent, with an equally witty writing staff, with a national cable audience, and access to instant distribution of relevant clips to the blogosphere. En Garde!
