SimplyShowbiz.com22 Republican senators voted against the Violence Against Women Act
The Senate on Tuesday voted to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act. 22 Republican senators voted against it. Why would anyone oppose it? The GOP has shown again and again that their party can’t help but go the sinister anti-women, anti-humane route. Good for us Dems, I guess.
“Other Desert Cities” — gin-soaked family secrets lurk beneath the surface of a perfect GOP facade [VIDEO]

GOP Neanderthal: “Control your unruly children by having them executed”
Taking a literal interpretation of the Bible to its furthest reaches can help wacked-out theocrats get more publicity than a naked stroll through Times Square in the middle of a blizzard. But whether it helps their candidacy for public office is another story. Republican Charlie Fuqua is running for the state legislature in Arkansas. In [...]

Romney’s debate strategy: Float like a butterfly, “zing” like a (zom)bee?
Mitt Romney’s unwisely leaked secret weapon in Wednesday night’s debate in Denver? The candidate has reportedly been handed a series of “zingers” with which to zap Barack Obama.

Will Dubya now go on campaign trail to boost Romney’s popularity?
He stayed away from the Republican National convention, and you haven’t heard his accomplishments lauded at length by Mitt Romney–but if things continue the way they have been, you might see George W. Bush out stumping for the Mitt-ster. According to a new article at Huffington Post, Romney has a lower favorability rating (43%) than [...]
Can Clint Eastwood’s Libertarian notions ever fly with Republicans?
Clint Eastwood told Ellen DeGeneres today that he is OK with gay marriage. Sort of. Defining himself as a “Libertarian,” Eastwood went on to describe what Libertarianism means to him: “You’re socially liberal, leave everybody alone, but you believe in fiscal responsibility and you believe in government staying out of your life.” I don’t [...]
GOP Goop: Did Bush administration invites get lost in the mail? [VIDEO]
“The first Republican president, Abraham Lincoln, freed the slaves, and the Republican party — to this very day — has never stopped fighting for the black man…Romney and Ryan are polling at zero percent among blacks…they couldn’t get a black guy to vote for them if they gave him a Lincoln…” –Bill Maher, August 31, [...]

Rage against Ryan: Did the GOP candidate forget to listen to the lyrics?
Paul Ryan has said that his favorite band is Rage Against the Machine, but Rage guitarist Tom Morello says in a new Rolling Stone editorial that the presumptive GOP VP candidate is “clueless” about what the band stands for: “I wonder what Ryan’s favorite Rage song is? Is it the one where we condemn the [...]
Eastwood, Jameson: Celeb endorsements in Romney camp are mixed bag
Perhaps Dirty Harry and Naughty Jenna will do a campaign spot together for Former Governor Gosh and Golly.

“I bloviate, he bloviates, they bloviate….”
It’s the word that’s on everyone’s lips right now. Over the weekend conservative pundit George Will called Mitt Romney’s pal Donald Trump a “bloviating ignoramus.” (Will wants presumptive Republican presidential candidate Romney to distance himself from Trump and his nutty “birther” theories about President Obama.) To “bloviate” means “to orate verbosely and windily” according to [...]
