VIDEO: Teabaggers invite Olbermann to tea party to prove they're not ALL white

By GottaLaff



They came up with a whole... handful of not white people for this video. It must have been some big effort to scrape up the footage and notify the casting offices.

I'm sure Keith will ink the Dallas Tea Party 2010 Anniversary onto his calendar immediately. Who'd miss a big do like that?

I know who. Not white people.

Obamas invite Edith "fired up, ready to go" Childs to White House

By GottaLaff

Of course, now the phrase "fired up, ready to go" will be banned from all airports... but it was fun while it lasted, right?

Here is President Obama recounting the inspiring "fired up" experience. This story never gets old:

Porn company names Gingrich ‘Family Values Porn Fan of the Year, 2009.’

By GottaLaff

Remember that racy little post about Newtie and the nudies (sounds like a '60s rock band)? It was all about invitations to "private dinners" that were sent out by the Newtster to adult entertainment industry types "by mistake".

Uh huh.

So who says XXXers don't have a sense of humor?

Allison Vivas, the president of Pink Visual, turned the tables on Newt. She told Dave McKenna of the Washington City Paper that she created a fake award for Gingrich:

“I sat down with the executive team here and created a special honor to bestow upon Newt: ‘Family Values Porn Fan of the Year, 2009,’ Vivas responded via email. “We worked on the plaque design [image on the right], an event schedule, a notification to fax to his office – and of course, a letter we’ll send rescinding the offer after he receives it.”

They could also invite Barbie McLipSchmutz.

That way, they wouldn't have to rescind the invitation. She'd simply fail to show up, and everyone would save lots and lots of time and money.

XXX Dep't-- Newtie rejects nudies again: No dinner for you!

By GottaLaff

Those "private dinners" with the XXXers can get a guy in hot water... literally:

For the second time this month, Newt Gingrich's 527 has decided that it made a mistake inviting an adult entertainment industry entrepreneur to attend a "private dinner" with the former House Speaker.

The mistake was getting caught, right Nudie, er, Newtie? Privately dine with me once, shame on you. Privately dine with me twice, shame on me.

Dawn Rizos, owner of Dallas topless club The Lodge, received a letter earlier this month from Gingrich's American Solutions inviting her to dine with Gingrich at a Capitol Hill club next week. She was also told she had been selected to receive an Entrepreneur of the Year Award. "Dawn — Newt is looking forward to finally meeting you face to face" to talk policy, read a handwritten note on the missive.

"Policy"... Is that what the kids are calling it now?

Precker said he was told the invitation had been intended for another company with the same name — DCG — as the club's corporate parent. He also says he was told the full $5,000, and the non-refundable travel expenses incurred, would be returned — "so I guess they really don't want us around." No funds have yet been received, he said.

Yes, that's it. They meant to invite the other DCG.

The latest cancellation comes just weeks after porn executive Allison Vivas — who received the same invitation to a dinner with Gingrich, with a nearly identical handwritten note — received her own cancellation notice.

What a coinkydink! Imagine! What are the chances?

Oh! Did I just post a suggestive picture? I meant to post the other suggestive picture:

I'll rescind that first one ASAP.

Fly fishers to Cheney: Go jump in a lake-- "It's as if the Holocaust museum held a dinner to honor [Nazi war criminal] Klaus Barbie."

By GottaLaff

The Nation of Dick is none too popular with the fly fishers. One might even say they want him gone, hook line and sinker:

When the American Museum of Fly Fishing hooked Dick Cheney for a fund-raising dinner, critics howled that they should throw him back.

Cheney - whose Secret Service code name was "Angler" - spearheaded energy policy at the White House and bears blame, detractors say, for the Bush administration's poor environmental record.

"The entire fly fishing community is appalled and disgusted," said Ted Williams, conservation editor at Fly Rod & Reel magazine.

So is the entire nation, but I digress.

"We all need money, but to apply green lipstick to this Darth Vader of fish and wildlife is whoring - it's grotesque," Williams said. "It's as if the Holocaust museum held a dinner to honor [Nazi war criminal] Klaus Barbie."

Whoring, huh? Seems ol' Dickface has waded in to familiar waters. (pun intended) I was going to include a quip about a "wet fly", but thought the better of it.

Steve Wright, a former commissioner of the Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department, blasted the invitation, calling Cheney "one of the great enemies of healthy fish and wildlife conservation in the U.S. over the last eight years."

Wright could have easily left out the words "of healthy fish and wildlife conservation" and still remained accurate.

Cathi Comar, executive director of the Vermont-based museum, said some of the critics "sent me nasty e-mails, calling me names, pretty inappropriate names, I have to say."

One board member also resigned in protest.

The former Veep gets invited to a fundraiser and members are so aghast, so furious, that they compare him to a Nazi, and one even resigns. Wowzers. Cheney better keep an eye on his fly rod.

Still, Comar said, the museum's board supports the invitation for the fall dinner.

"Why?" you might be asking. "Why would The Big Dick still be invited?" Because he's "one of the most enthusiastic fly fishermen in the country." Still, if the Nation of Dick is smart, he'll watch his anal fin.
