    Video: Throw Stuff at People

    The Bachmann glitter hit and interview of glitterer. Great job by interviewer Ed Frank. “She can run, but she can’t hide.” Yeah, nothing says “I’m in hiding” like running for President, plainly stating your views repeatedly on national television, and speaking at a major conference. But no one can escape the masterful sleuthing powers of glitter girl, who somehow managed to find this national figure | Read More »

    New RNC ad: Economic Turnaround?

    “Really? Seriously? Turnaround?” DNC Chairman Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz will say anything to protect the jobs of her fellow Democrats and President Barack Obama. What has she done to protect your job lately? David Gregory’s summary pretty much nails it: “Clearly the economy has not been turned around.” “Americans don’t believe that’s the case.”

    New Obama 2012 Ad, RNC Response Ad

    The President’s 2012 campaign is underway, and they’ve released the first ad, titled “It Begins With Us.” Allow me to summarize: “Remember how much you liked the President in 2008? That was awesome. But he’s super busy now. Here are some pictures of farms and voters!” Kind of ironic name for a reelection campaign ad. Begins? What were the last four years, pre-boarding? Anyway, the | Read More »

    Drill Here. Drill Now. PAY LESS.

    From the video description: Gas prices are rapidly increasing and could reach record levels by this summer, but President Obama is preventing us from harnessing our nation’s massive domestic oil supply. It’s time to tell President Obama to Drill Here, Drill Now. Even Bill Clinton says delay in permitting are “ridiculous“. Gas prices are out of control. I don’t even have to relate the skyrocketing | Read More »

    Video: Say DEBT 50 Times, Fast.

    Video: Michael Moore Robin Hoodwinked

    In the above video, Mary Katharine Ham absolutely devastates Michael Moore‘s Robin Hood Hypothesis regarding America’s money woes. Spoiler alert: It’s a stupid hypothesis. The grand total of the combined net worth of every single one of America’s billionaires is roughly $1.3 trillion. It does indeed sound like a “ton of cash” until one considers that the 2011 deficit alone is $1.6 trillion. So, if | Read More »

    Iran is Irate (that was a gimme) over the 2012 London Olympics. More specifically, over the logo, threatening to boycott the games. You see, they believe there is a hidden message in the logo. Here, first, I menacingly present the original. I know what you’re thinking … UGLY. Agreed. (Or perhaps you were thinking: Is that Bill Clinton getting a … phone call? And for | Read More »

    Video: Story of Citizens United v. FEC, The Critique

    This is a great video that takes apart Annie Leonard’s (of Story of Stuff infamy) new video “The Story of Citizens United v. FEC.” Watch the whole thing, it’s an absolute fisking of a serial propagandist. You can see more videos from How The World Works here on the youtube channel.

    Video: New From FreedomConnector – Join The Fight

    This is the latest web ad from FreedomWorks. Focusing on the ongoing union protests, the video promotes their new website, FreedomConnector.com. I’ve used the site several times and it is a fantastic way to keep track of particular congressional districts, including who is holding events, when, where, and why.
