Like Stephanie Miller says, Sarah Palin’s nomination as the Republican VP candidate is straight out of SNL. You sersiouly couldn’t write easier attack points for someone with half a brain to use against the Republican ticket, let alone someone as badass as James Carville, who absolutely pwns all challengers, including some shit brained Republican congresswoman. News might actually be worth watching this week just to see all the carnage.

That being said, I’m really not looking forward to seeing this woman, and her running mate, Emperor Palpatine, most likely win the election this November. After all, never underestimate the stupidity, and duplicity
and utter idiocy of the American electorate. ITS GONNA BE FUN!!11

Finally, a true representative of the people!!:

Capitol Weekly reports that newly elected California Congresswoman Laura Richardson walked away from the mortgage on her $535,000 Sacramento home, letting the house slip into foreclosure and disrepair less than two years after she bought it with no money down.

Capitol Weekly, citing tax records at the Sacramento County assessor’s office, reports “… in January 2007, Richardson took out a mortgage for the entire sale price of the house — $535,000. The mortgage amount was equal to the sale price of the home, meaning she was able to buy the house without a down payment, even though the housing market was beginning to turn. A March 19, 2008 notice of trustee’s sale indicates that the unpaid balance of Richardson’s loan, which is held by Washington Mutual, is more than $578,000 –$40,000 more than the original mortgage.”

The weekly also reports Richardson’s residence quickly became an eyesore, angering neighbors. The report says she recused herself on two key house votes on government efforts to address the foreclosure crisis.

State Politicians: just as stupid as you, only way more powerful!
