John McCain, The Brick Tamland Of Presidential Candidates

Ezra Klein on McCain’s fundamental misunderstanding of how Social Security works:

There are criticisms that people make of Social Security, most of them relating to a mismatch between the program’s revenue and its future obligations. But McCain’s comment is very different. It’s like if lots of people made fun of one guy’s car because it was broken down, ugly, and lacked headlights. Then one of the dimmer members of the group, sensing an opportunity to jump in, piped up with, “yeah, four wheels and an engine? What’s with that!? When you gonna do something about that!?”

“Hey! Where did you get those clothes? At the…toilet…store?.”

This Is So Horribly Immature

Shame on you, Vanity Fair. Shame on you.

Great Article About Understanding Allen Iverson

Understanding Allen Iverson on Allen Iverson’s Terms:

You know those glow sticks they give little kids on Halloween? With the neon goo inside? Where you and I have blood, Iverson has that glowing stuff pumping through him. He’s just on fire, all the time. If you could spread that magical juice throughout your roster, you’d win the title every year—talent and size be damned.

But as it is, Allen Iverson has two gallons of it, and most people don’t even have a teaspoon. There’s your trouble. Hmm… it’s a game won by the best team… so what do you there? Through most of his career, Allen Iverson has known what to do there: win the damn game himself. He can see how and where the fire is burning, and by comparison it’s almost all in him.

The Cast Of Scrubs Performs "A Charlie Brown Christmas"

Rep. Jack Kingston Is Obviously Lazy But Also Poorly Educated

Reacting to statements by the Democratic leadership calling for a five-day work week starting in January, Rep. Jack Kingston of Georgia whines:

“Keeping us up here eats away at families,” said Rep. Jack Kingston (R-Ga.), who typically flies home on Thursdays and returns to Washington on Tuesdays. “Marriages suffer. The Democrats could care less about families — that’s what this says.”

It’s “couldn’t care less”, Jack, couldn’t.

BINSK.ORG Calls Bullshit On Dan Froomkin

Dan Froomkin - 2006 Nov 30:

What is it about Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert that makes them so refreshing and attractive to a wide variety of viewers (including those so-important younger ones)? I would argue that, more than anything else, it is that they enthusiastically call bullshit.

Binsk - 2004 September 29:

You know why Jon Stewart commands a well-educated audience?

You know why Jon Stewart is arguably the most respected television personality involved in this election?

You know why THE DAILY SHOW is actually “Fair and Balanced”?

Because Jon Stewart calls bullshit on people.

They make shit up, and he says, “I call bullshit on that.”

It’s that simple.

Of course we kid. BINSK.ORG loves Dan Froomkin.

Even more if he’d get a damned haircut.

So what you're saying is you have a problem that is totally your problem but you'd like to find a way to make that problem my problem.
