Proof again that Repubs have no sense of humor?

I'm going to start Onion bombing y'all if you keep it up.

I was waiting for someone to post this. Can we get "It Never Happened" from the left?

Damn. That statement is as stupid as everything that Michelle Bachmann has ever said.

Well, I googled it and came up with page after page of the rightwing blogosphere hyperventilating over it. Any of you have a link to the actual speech?

That Washington 'Mooney' Times page is a mess, who designed that website? The fired idjits that rolled out the ACA website?

It should be noted that settlers have been here for more than 400 years, and they brought with them the system of common law, which remains an important part of our current legal system.

Yep, high quality journalism there: "“I am a queen, and I demand to be treated like a queen,” Sheila Jackson-Lee once reportedly said." I will, however, give the writer credit for making no pretense about being objective in his hatchet piece.

Didn't one of the early colonies have a charter in the 1600's that was a forerunner of the constitution?
