Washington Examiner: Liberal assertions that cuts in government spending will cause certain death are nothing new. Sixteen years ago this week, Krugman’s fellow columnist Bob Herbert warned New York Times readers that the welfare reform bill Republicans were then debating in the Senate “would hurt many people, would kill some and would help no one.” Herbert could not have been much farther from the mark. Two years later, after President

In 1977, Herman Cain challenged Sly Stone to a funk contest and easily out-funked him. When a chastened and humiliated Stone tried to follow-up his defeat with a right cross to the newly-annointed funkmaster’s chin, Herman Cain caught the musician’s fist in his large, forgiving hands and turned it into a bouquet of daisies. Then he went home and had sex with Olivia Newton-John.

Thrilled that the candidate actually believes in science, Michael Moore endorses establishment GOP “top-tier candidate” Jon Huntsman. Frankly, I’m happy that Moore, and Jimmy Carter, and Jon Stewart — not to mention the GOP establishment types (who don’t exist, because the GOP establishment doesn’t exist, and even if it did, we’d be it, so take that, you ignorant extremists who are the new establishment, which doesn’t even exist) — are

BREAKING: People expressing surprise with this continue to surprise.

By the way, liberal Democrats: Herman Cain would count as a black president, too. It’s true, I’ve seen him! Brown as a coffee bean! — if you’re still trying assuage your white guilt, I mean. Options. Nuance. Outlaw.
