Hello, Youdopia.  This is a cartoon from the Chicago Tribune in 1934. Sound familiar?  Click the pic to see from where I ginked it.

Daniel Hannan MEP, Gives Gordon Brown A Verbal Ass Whoopin’ At An EU Parliament Meeting

in fnord, sadhana and dharma

Holy shit, youdopia. This isn’t much, really. But it is a nice piece of how they do it elsewhere. Gordon Brown got schooled by an MP, in the manner in which Britain does it. I wish we were a little more like that, but alas…. they’re all monsters, whore, goblins, or simply idiots… a few [...]

Craziest Shit Ever: OMG Joe Biden Drops The F Bomb… Just Like Real People!

in craziest shit ever, fnord, sadhana and dharma, wisdom

You know what, Youdopia? I like Joe Biden. I like it that his candor and abruptness allow him to remain nominally human in the center of Dis. The other day, an open mic caught Vice President Biden, when called “Mr Vice President” by a colleague, replying, “Give me a fucking break!”. Funny. I like [...]

Coolest Shit Ever: Jon Stewart Points Out The Complicity Of Jim Cramer

in Coolest Shit Ever, fnord, humor, sadhana and dharma, wisdom

Well, Youdopia… Jon Stewart took Cramer to the cleaners on the Daily Show last night. In one sense it was amazingly wonderful, but in another sense it is the start of Jon Stewart, politician, and I worry about the Frankenization of a very funny guy. He’s obviously fired up, and goddamnit he won, and he’s [...]

The Mississippi Delta Was Shining Like A National Guitar

in fnord, sadhana and dharma, wisdom

Poor boys and pilgrims with families, and we’re all going to Graceland.
I knew Obama was going to win when his grandma died the night before the election. That’s mythic. When you’re dealing with something this big, you expect mythic actions. President-Elect Obama has the dubious distinction of being an Archetype.  That’s good and bad. On [...]

Coolest Shit Ever: How About Michael Palin For President?

in Coolest Shit Ever, fnord, humor

Ok, Youdopia, Yes I would fuck Sarah Palin. Hard and rough and leave her with an extreme case of Stockholm Syndrome. But.. instead of having a Hockey Mom run the country, why not a Lumberjack? I prefer Michael Palin. His accent is nicer.

Craziest Shit Ever: John McCain Plays David Letterman, Letterman Plays McCain. Couric Wins. Nicely Done.

in craziest shit ever, fnord, humor, wisdom

Hello, youdopia. This will cease to be relevent in moments, but I thought it worth posting. John McCain cancelled on Letterman, to “race back to Washington” because of this economic downturn hysteria, and… well… watch.

Chris Rock Introducing Barack Obama For Some Reason

in Coolest Shit Ever, fnord

“My opponent will not be able to say that I voted for the war, because I didn’t. He won’t be able to say I gave George Bush the benefit of the doubt, with Iran… because I haven’t.”
I love Barack Obama. I don’t care if he’s full of shit. I don’t care if he is a [...]
