Despicable

Wingnuts/teabaggers really are the most loathsome douchebags in the world:

The teabaggers in this video are contemptible, heartless bottom-feeders. I wish every person in the United States would watch this. My dad suffered from Parkinson’s for 15+ years before he passed away. It is an unrelenting, horrible disease. He could barely speak or move near the end of his life. But, ha ha!, let’s giggle as “real Americans” chuck some dollar bills at the pathetic “communist” who probably can’t afford coverage. These “patriots” are just the absolute worst.

But leave it to the subhuman blockhead Dan Riehl to drag this malicious bullshit even lower.

God, I hate these people. [video via Wonkette]

Three Guys I Hope I Never Meet in a James Dickey Novel

World’s worst Wigger posse or Travis Bickle family reunion?

The Tea Party vibe is so creepy, not even Norman Rockwell could make this shit look wholesome. TV exposure is not their friend.

The Return of Tito the Builder at Today’s DC Teabagger Rally

A lot of blogs are posting this CBS news video of an angry teabagger yelling into the door of Rep. Gerry Connolly’s office today (before it’s shut in his face):

I’m pretty certain that this is our ol’ pal Tito the Builder. I’m not a voice specialist, but the man in the video sounds just like Tito, who is also a Colombian immigrant.  In addition, the man from today’s video is wearing a wedding band that looks just the one Tito can be seen wearing in this video. I’m not 100% sure since Tito always wore sunglasses and I can’t find any evidence of him boasting about being arrested four times in his former country, but I’d put down a pretty sizable sum on a bet if anyone wants to take me up on it…

UPDATE: It’s gotta be Tito.  Gerry Connolly represents VA’s 11th district and he has an office (listed at the bottom of this page) in Woodbridge, the home of Deborn Construction, Inc., the company Tito owns.

Your Daily Minute of Populist Revolution

From yard-sign-to-yard-sign, yesterday’s anti-HCR protest in Strongsville, OH lasted slightly longer than it takes to microwave a breakfast burrito.

PS: Nice editorial bookending by the videographer. As the Bush/Cheney sign drifts into frame, you can almost hear Charles Foster Kane whisper “Turdblossom.”

Everyone! Look over here! Ray Stevens is completely sucking again!

Extra sucky Ray Stevens, not-even-close-to-famous for his awful, awful 70’s novelty hit “The Streak,” is back again to prove why wingnuts will never, ever be capable of taking over the music industry.  In his latest jag rag for teabaggin’ jerkoffs, Stevens pays homage to Sarah Palin, but according to Ray’s publicist Elroy, who is obviously editing Steven’s Wikipedia page, the satire is sooooo skillfully crafted that anti-Palin people might be fooled:

This music video is about Sarah Palin and it takes the derogatory phrase caribou barbie and twists it around as a compliment. The video uses a Palin impersonator and through the help of sight-gags it takes aim at several high profile newscasters on cable television. The video also parodies Sarah Palin’s image and it’s possible that those who do not like Palin will perhaps misinterpret the song’s meaning as an attack on the former Alaskan Governor instead of hearing it as a pro-Palin message, which it is.

Watch this at your own peril. Stevens has plans for you, Obot.

Monday Morning Music: Pomplamoose’s cover of Lady Gaga’s “Telephone”

Everyone’s posting Lady Gaga’s new “Telephone” music video because you get to see her nearly nekkid in it and watch her make out with Steve Buscemi while she’s wearing lit-cigarette sunglasses, but this version of the song, while not great, is much better and the young lady from Pomplamoose would never get nekkid or wear lit-cigarette sunglasses (but I think she might make out with Steve Buscemi)...

Democratic HCR Strategy, the “Nuclear” Option and the 2010 Elections for Giant Robot Fans

Hint: Giant Robot is the Democrats, Emperor Guillotine is the Republicans…and 2010 is whichever one returns from outer space intact.

Vatican, YouTube Parody Equally Serious About Combating Institutionalized Sex-Abuse

As a tsunami of allegations of clerical sexual abuse—some directed at the Pope’s own brother—cascades across Europe, the Vatican has deployed its Supreme Weapon in the never-ending battle to establish God’s Kingdom on Earth: a “full-court media offensive to stem the damage.”

As part of its standing Crisis-of-Faith Response Plan, the Church has moved quickly and aggressively to assign blame to the root cause of priestly perversion—Satan. Teams of Guilt Deflection Specialists have fanned out across the airwaves to echo Vatican Chief Exorcist Father Gabriele Amorth’s dramatic revelation that “the Devil is at work inside the Vatican.”

Meanwhile, Pope Benedict himself has assumed a lead role in marshaling the full force of Ecclesiastical Bureaucratic Dithering as part of an orchestrated effort to make this existential threat to the Church’s Moral Authority “go away”: 

He has promised to write a letter soon to faithful in Ireland about decades of systematic abuse in church-run schools, orphanages and other institutions in that predominantly Roman Catholic nation.

The Archdiocese of Munich and Freising, where Benedict served as archbishop from 1977 to 1982, says that a working group, established last month after allegations of abuse in a church-run school, would be expanded to include an external, independent legal office.

No offense to Catholics or Catholicism, but until the Vatican drops the “few bad apples” defense and owns up to the fact that it has a serious systemic problem, videos like this one are going to continue to be funny…if only in a sad and deeply troubling way. Not even the Bishop of Rome owns a rug big enough to sweep this under.

Sunday Morning Music: Ludovico Einaudi’s “Eros”

I knew nothing about Italian pianist/composer Einaudi before I saw this video so I looked him up via the indispensable AllMusic.com and found a quote from him describing the album this song can be found on: “A night-time landscape. A garden faintly visible under the dull glow of the night sky. A few stars dotting the darkness above, shadows of the trees all around. Light shining from a window behind me. What I can see is familiar, but it seems alien at the same time. It’s like a dream—anything may happen.”

Works for me.

Saturday Afternoon Music: OK Go’s “This Too Shall Pass”

Normally I don’t like posting videos that have already gone wildly viral and the song doesn’t do a helluva lot for me, but none of the generally plugged-in semi-geeks I was out drinking with last night had seen this new entry from the band who delivered one of the best music videos ever and it just flat out fucking rocks in a million different ways, so here you go.  Enjoy.
