Hump Day Open Thread

Minimum wage to $9 by 2015, whoo hoo. Oh nos, Obama playing golf with Tiger (and two oil executives)! Simpson and Bowles came back like a pair of herpes sores and this time they wanna make sure you never get laid again. John McCain is still screaming for the truth, facts and sanity itself to get off his lawn. Donald Trump is suing a penniless blogger for $25,000,000 he desperately needs for showing the world what a failed, busted GOP penile implant he truly is. 2000 Americans have died from guns since Sandy Hook and that's the way it should be. And oh, look, a boy in a shiny balloon!

Reading the news these days is like going to an all you can eat buffet at a soup kitchen. The spread is certainly, well, spready but the offerings suck. I guess Wolf Blitzer and his beard never got the memo that neither's been relevant since the day Bush stumbled out of office over four years ago. Rachel Maddow and her strap on has for a while now been rogering Fox "News" and owns the future. People are finally waking up and realizing that they've had an Elephant Man's bag placed over their heads and have been lied to by partisan pimps masquerading as journalists and beating us with their clothes hanger pimp sticks.

So these are just some of the news items for you to listlessly chew over while the real stories get ignored this Hump Day..

Oh, and speaking of Hump Day, try this on for size, courtesy of Lee Camp.

Yep, that about covers it.
