From The Room: Disgrasian of the Week: Gwen Ifill

October 4, 2008 - Dearest Gwen, Love you, love your work. There is no question of that. Here's the thing: You had a tough night, with a big spill down the stairs, folks saying you were too Pro-Obama to moderate the debate fairly, and close physical proximity to the most ridiculous candidate...

From The Room: The Vast Right Wing Conspiracy: Debate? What debate?

October 3, 2008 - Before I get going on the non-debate last night I think all Americans can agree that after seeing Gwen Ifill's jacket that somewhere there is a Laz-E-Boy missing a cover. If I was really looking for a Right Wing Conspiracy it was a blue jacket, a...

From The Room: Vice Presidential Nominees Gone Wild: The First and Last Episode

October 3, 2008 - And I thought last week's debate was laden with homo-eroticism. Well, the sexual tension at the VP debate last night was so thick, you could drill it with a drill. Could Palin and Biden share a sordid side-- and a sexual his...

From The Room: Sarah Palin, the Average American

October 3, 2008 - Dear Sarah, I believe that you are in touch with The Average American Family of which you speak. I'm quite certain that you connect with the white, white, orange-slice bringin', church-never-missin', "doggone" sayin', soccerhockeyfootballmomn' moms and dads, and their moms and dads. I believe you...

From The Room: Why Palin Won the Debate

October 3, 2008 - "If you're gonna run a town, it's better to be perky than smart." - Mayberry Sheriff Andy Taylor* I know the liberal mainstream media will try to spin the vice presidential debate as a win for Joe Biden, but that's because they continue to be out of touch...

From The Room: The Schlocky Mom

October 3, 2008 - For Republicans to celebrate with the rallying cry: "She didn't fuck up!" is more than a little sad. Last night was the Senator from Delaware vs. the Governor from Stepford. She grinned like an idiot. Trotted out the folksy, aw shucks bullshit. It was all false and contrived. From...

From The Room: Sarah "Tinky Winky" Palin

October 3, 2008 - What is up with Sarah "Tinky Winky" Palin? Did some of the BS she was throwing around fly into her eye? I mean, what woman winks anymore other than at the Holiday Inn Express Karaoke Night...

From The Room: Palin Forgets Everything She Memorized Five Minutes After Debate

October 2, 2008 - Tonight's debate proved beyond a doubt, that Sarah Palin is qualified. Qualified to be a right wing evangelical preacher, a PR flack, a local news anchor, and a motivational speaker. But not Vice President of the United States. And certainly not an English teacher. Why is it that politicians...

From The Room: Palin's Great Achievement: She Didn't Stink Up the Joint

October 3, 2008 - Well that was fun. It's sad that "Hey, she didn't stink up the joint" is considered a great achievement. Governor Palin was certainly well-prepped and spookily confident on her feet. And when she needed them, she had more than enough down-home, "aw shucks" hockey-mom-isms...

From The Room: Palin vs. Biden: Get...Ready...to...Stum-ble!!

October 2, 2008 - There's an old joke about a guy's wife walking in on him in bed with another woman. When confronted, the guy denies it, saying: "who are you going to believe, me or your lyin' eyes?" It's with the same degree of reality-denying hubris that Sarah Palin...

From The Room: As Debate Draws Near, Joe Biden Recounts His First Fight with a Girl

October 2, 2008 - ST. LOUIS, Missouri -- According to Joe Biden, Joe Biden never backs down from a fight, even the time he found himself face-to-fist with Samantha Bedell, a nine-year old bully who administered a beating the Delaware Senator will never forget. At the Democratic National Conventio...

From The Room: My Questions for the Debate

October 2, 2008 - If only to see Tina Fey's en pointe Sarah Palin impersonation, these are the questions I hope will be posed to the Alaskan governor at the debate: What would you do to revitalize America's economy? I'm not sure anyone has the answer, but it would be fun...
