GOP NY Sen. George Mariarz To Lesbian Constituent: I’ll Vote No On Marriage

Posted on November 9, 2009 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

JMG reader Bess in Rochester sends us this clip of her wife Anne Tischer pleading for GOP NY state Sen. George Maziarz to support tomorrow’s possible vote on marriage equality. After Tischer lays out her case calmly and logically, Mariarz is unmoved, does not address any of her points, and flatly announces his plan to vote against the bill.

In a Terrifying Alternate Universe, Vice President Sarah Palin Claims Victory

Posted on November 3, 2009 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

On election night, Sarah Palin threatened to “go rogue” by delivering a speech someone else wrote for her, but John McCain refused so she didn’t. Now you can read the addresses — both concession and victory — she would’ve given. The Daily Beast has an excerpt from Sarah from Alaska , a new Palin bio , with the speeches writer Matt Scully wrote for her on election night: A concession speech in which she lauded “black citizen” Barack Obama for winning, and a victory speech in which she announces that her husband will thenceforth be known as “the First Dude.” Reading the victory speech is chilling in a Man in the High Castle sort of way—what if McCain/Palin really did win the election, and we’re all just characters in a blog or something?

Bush Is Back! Forges New Folksy Speaking Career

Posted on October 27, 2009 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Dubya has mainly been writing a book in crayon since leaving the Oval Office, with his tongue stuck out to help him concentrate. But, perhaps upset that Michael Steele is the only person regularly gaffe-ing, he’s back and giving speeches! He clearly thought he’d play to his strengths in retirement: he’s always been good with the words . So yesterday evening he addressed 15,000 people in Fort Worth, Texas (at a seminar shoutily titled GETMOTIVATED!) in his new guise as motivational-speaker-in-chief.
