But since he ripped Ryan
(For once he’s not lyin’!)
The Teabaggers gave Newt the bewt.
When Navy Seals took out Bin Laden
How freude was everyone’s schaden

No high profile fundamentalist has yet denounced the movie Thor for promoting paganism, but you know it's only a matter of time.
Racists rage as a black actor plays a Norse god in the movie version of the Marvel comic Thor. Wait till they find out Stan Lee is Jewish.

Republicans think government can’t do ANYTHING right… except capital punishment, when suddenly government is godlike in its infallibility.

The GOP says Happy Mother’s Day -- not with cards and flowers, but with tens of millions in cuts for prenatal and early childhood care
Drop the false modesty, Mr. Allen. A man who feels free to shtup his daughter has no self-esteem issues. http://bit.ly/...
On this Mother's Day, the anti-abortion movement renews its solemn pledge to support mothers everywhere... until they actually give birth.

To the Americans of 1776, patriotism was dying for your country. To the Tea-bigots of 2011, patriotism is whining about your taxes.
Bristol Palin gets her own reality show, as the concept of "reality" finally surrenders to the GOP after years of attack.

Once upon a time, the right-wing alternative to Katherine Graham's Washington Post was the Washington Times. Now it's the Washington Post.
The GOP presidential candidate’s dilemma: first you must convince Republicans you’re crazy, then you must convince everyone else you’re sane
Would the media STOP calling that bat crap crazy CUNY trustee "pro-Israel?" Tony Kushner is pro-Israel. The trustee is merely pro-bat crap.

I guess the Republiclowns whining about the violent imagery in Common's rap lyrics think that Eric Clapton endorses the shooting of sheriffs
Newt Gingrich says he wants to be our president -- but after the inauguration, will he tire of us and run off to rule a sexy Latin country?
Too much of the media treats a flat-out lie like just another opinion, every bit as deserving of respect and publication as the truth.
Newt Gingrich is the man of the hour... specifically, the hour of six to seven o'clock on the morning of January the fifteenth, 1995.

Ron Paul says he would have voted against the Civil Rights Act. So under President Paul, racism would be okay as long as it's privatized.

Trump and Huckabee bow out of the White House race, apparently realizing that no living Republican can run against a dead Bin Laden.
May 17th
#newtslogans Semper fidelis!.. well, if you don't count those last two times.
Trump dumped his White House bid. So unless Palin tosses her tinfoil hat into the ring, Bachmann now has the outpatient vote all to herself.
If you fall off a boat, conservatives will urge you to save yourself and pray for you if you drown. Liberals will throw you a rope. #LIBvCON

Republicans get all Boehner-weepy over children before they're born and soldiers after they're dead. In between, you're on your own, pal.
And finally, the first tweet of June…
