News Briefs

News you can use all day

(Petunia and Pals) Petunia says it’s the messenger, not the message.

  • Professional Courtesy? - Everyone is wondering why Louie Gohmert of Texas is the only person to vote against removing Lunatic from all federal law. (HuffPo)
  • Batter-up! - Famous Queen of the Jawas Governor Jan Brewer of the terrible Sand Kingdom of Arizonastan slugged the reporter who asked her about global climate change. (HuffPo)
  • Trust - Americans trust the Kenyan Usurper Hawaiian Devil Baby and the Dims more than Wingnuttia on the so-called Fiscal Cliff issue, 53 percent to 36 percent. But there’s more:

    By even wider margins, voters support raising taxes on wealthy Americans, 65 percent to 31 percent. Respondents oppose cuts to Medicaid spending by a whopping 70 percent to 25 percent, and a small majority oppose raising the Medicare eligibility age, 51 percent to 44 percent. Sixty-six percent of voters agree with Democrats that a deal should include both tax increases and spending cuts.
