king of bain (lyrics)

there’s a little black spot on my resume
it’s just all of the jobs that i threw away
there’s a little pink slip that i’m thinking of
because firing folks is the one thing i love

canned 'em in california, let 'em go in maine
on my way to my gop white house reign
and you all watch your paychecks going down the drain
'cuz you know that’s why they all call me the king of bain
words & music: stung, a. winters, s. dopeland

and here's the music, if you want to sing along:

(tell me why) i don't like mondays

last year was a really good year for the auto industry

the gin and tacos 2011 c*cksucker of the year: donald trump!

lance mannion on ron paul on war

and here's the ultimate libertarian defense of ron paul

and stop the presses, er, we mean, let the presses start: keith olbermann will host current's coverage of the new hampshire primary:
a spokesperson for current confirmed that progress between the two parties was made over the weekend and that they expect olbermann to participate in election coverage going forward.

memo reveals tension over gop primary
"he told us he will do upcoming special election coverage," a current spokesperson told [the hollywood reporter] on sunday. "we certainly hope he does. that was our intention all along."

olbermann will have complete creative and editorial control. but it's unclear exactly what that coverage will look like; whether olbermann will do a special edition of countdown with his own panel of guests or lead the network's politically direct election specials, which have featured cenk uygur, jennifer granholm and network co-founder al gore.

the timing of the détente means politically direct will continue as planned on tuesday.

as much as we love having keith's liberal voice on television, we tend to agree w/mistermix @ balloon juice:
is there a bigger candy-ass crybaby prima donna than keith olbermann?

debbie wasserman schultz is right: romney is a job cremator

florida state rep tries to undo voter suppression law

comparing the gop candidates tax proposals

you'll enjoy this sign in a new hampshire restaurant

and may we say that avedon carol nails it:
and until we get some national voices making the case for the genuinely liberal approach to those issues - and being heard - we will be in big trouble, because the only person who even makes something that, on the surface, sounds a bit liberal, is a crazy and dangerous right-wing crackpot named ron paul.
