What did everyone expect? That the Obama Administration would gather their hands together and fly with unicorns all day? There are really, really bad problems and we're trying to get ourselves out of a ditch. I would think that the last thing we all want is for Obama to be run over by douchebags (and we all know there are plenty of them there now) as soon as he arrives at the White House. One of the things that Republicans accused Obama of was that he was all talk and no action. Well now we have know that Obama means business and has the muscle to do it. Maybe some things will actually get done now. Unfortunately, some current politicians are so dense that the assholes have to come out.

Obama's prejudice against gay people

is a great start!

That wasn't Obama. That was the entire state of California. Don't make Obama a scapegoat for every single problem. And if you still want to blame more people, blame Bush and Congress for DOMA. Do research.

Great cartoon! Let the NWO commence. I'm off to be one of Obama's corteseans in his absolutely huge harem. Sorry men of America, Obama is taking all of the women.

I second that McCain would SO NOT marry Lieberman. He's too in love with his buddy Linsey Graham. Let them get married instead. Also, Sarah Palin can't be a spokeswoman for any business. Because she wouldn't be able to remember where the locations would be and if the title of the business is not from "real" America, she probably couldn't pronounce it anyway.

Joe Scarborough is a fucking hypocrite. All for decency on television and now completely backtracking by unleashing the f-word on his family morning show (although I don't see kids watching his show since it's fucking boring anyway). Fuck you Scarborough.

Rahm has definitely proven himself to be a brillant, effective, yet ruthless tactican that is capable of getting things done (the 2006 Democratic Congressional takeover, NAFTA). It just shows how late in the game Democrats were to get a backbone and Rahm led the charge in my opinion. Screw pitbulls with lipstick, there's a big blue hatchetman in the house now.

Can Palin improve in four years? As a college professor, I can tell you -- if she can't speak intelligently by now, she's never going to learn. Most of my students do far better.

You got that right Phylmom. She is going to need to do a lot to get to Palin 2.0. Palin now is either very, very ignorant or a complete f*@king idiot. It scares me how close she was to the presidency (Thank you Lord, Obama won). No way Palin 1.0 would cut it in 2012. She would get eaten alive (and not in the good way). And yes I believe the entire population of college students is much smarter and brighter than Sarah Palin.

Homophobic is more accurate.

Give it up. Obama is not to blame for Prop. 8 passing. If anything, blame conservatives and the religious right. You know that Obama and his campaign was thinking of getting rid of DOMA. Unless you did your research, you would try to seek other options instead of blaming others.

Yes Paglia thinks she's the face of post modern feminism or such horse sh*t, but I see a regional runner-up in a B-league beauty contest "eying the prize". The problem? No talent and unwilling to do the hard work.

Sarah babe, reset your goals to Fox and you will be a wealthy buffoon just like O'Reilly.

You gave me the giggles, asze13. Whomever thinks Palin is a face of any kind of feminism is horsesh*t (no offense to the horses). The woman is substance, but only for the right wing conservative kind. She's pretty much isolated everyone not on the hardcore conservative base with this "real" and "fake" America and anti-intellectual crap. The woman is either completely ignorant or a complete f**king idiot. We'll see if she improves in the next four years, but like a college professor said earlier, if she hasn't learned now she probably never will. Of course, everyone will be getting status reports from her because she's talking up a storm with the media, whom she says the reason she was getting a bad rep. Yup, blame the media...as always. Seriously, Palin take care of your state. You have a CONVICTED FELON in line to be your senator and gas prices have gone down so low, I doubt that Alaska will be a in surplus with their budget. Might want to take care of your state, before jumping in to take care of the rest of us in the mainland.

"I mean, look at the list of people Nagourey mentions as potential future national Republican figures: Tim Pawlenty, Sarah Palin, Haley Barbour ... are you kidding me?"

Good point, Thomas. If that's the most of what the Republicans can offer in 2012, the elephant is in deep s**t. I'm not a Republican, but I can tell you that none of those names stand out to me or make me want to turn red anytime soon. Palin's name alone just makes me what to go more blue with her idiotic propaganda. I think the younger republicans make better points like Paul Ryan (he says the Republicans need a fire hose to clean up the mess they made for themselves). He looks worth actually listening to, unlike Sarah Palin. Hey old people of the GOP, maybe you should actually listen to your youth. Obama did and look what happened.
