That haz teh rofl.

I don’t see the NewsHax ad, but there is one up for the odious Kay Bailey Hutchinson. Randomly generated, of course. Every time you click, they pay.

Whoa. That Sarah Palin scares me. At least those movies will go away in a few weeks.

Just read that Oprah is interviewing Sarah about her book on 11/16. Set your DVRs and TiVos now, kids.

Why do they keep saying she’s going rouge, anyway?  Is she wearing more make-up?

Betty, with apologies to you and Thers, I might have to use this as a springboard, on account of the wheelhousiness.

I’m still reeling from the fact that somebody besides me actually saw David Arquette’s “The Tripper,” much less enjoyed it. Otherwise I might note the additional ironic juxtaposition: a comment thread full of people decrying the torture-porn subgenre right next to a picture of a blonde babe in an “I’d rather be waterboarding” t-shirt.

Swing away, Gil. Swing away!

“Sarah Palin is Back”

Sequels in this genre are usually a disappointment, especially when the title character has been quite thoroughly and convincingly destroyed at the end of the first movie.

Even assuming there’s a plausible stem-cell cloning or Twin-Sister-Seeking-Revenge gimmick to explain Sarah’s “resurrection,” this film—like its 2008 predecessor—bears the thankless burden of milking midnight chills from a low-budget retread of Fred Thompson’s Attack of the 50-Foot Wingnut franchise. Where Thompson’s eerily-reanimated TV politician embodied echoes of Angus Scrimm’s rigored afterworldliness and genuinely menacing presence in the Phantasm series, Sarah is only ever unintentionally and awkwardly threatening, like Godzilla with an inner-ear problem.

Aside from dating-age teenagers and career GOP politicos, Hockey Mom II is unlikely to evoke shrieks of terror from anyone other than the backers who financed this ill-starred celluloid campaign re-launch that literally Stinks-on-Ice.

Strange FTW.

Swing away!

Assuming you’re not quoting “Signs” on purpose, that is eerily apt.

Strange FTW.

With all the wheelhouse talk I managed to forget that the one other person in the entire goddamn political blogosphere with a similar frame of reference also posts here. I bet we both look just like Timothy Hutton.

WTF is a ‘conservative horror movie’? The sluts and blacks die first? Isn’t that ALL horror movies?
