Clearly, this shownotes blog (and its author) are as trustworthy as a denial of wrongdoing from Repubican candidates for Georgia lieutenant governor.  (Google it... trust me, it's funny).

BUT, to usher in a new era of accountability... we promise a new show this week, and barring continued biblical rain in DC, it'll go up tomorrow night.

We're comin' at ya with a new show this week... seems like we've gone "Congressional" and become comfortable with a one week on, one week off kinda thing.  Must be in the water or something?

Replacing the Dukester, our foreign policy and the procrastinating Supreme Court

We're unabashed fans of the train wreck that is the Katherine Harris Senate campaign and YouTube. Put them together and you get a classic clip montage... 

A little over a week ago, we shared with you the maniacal math of Speaker Denny Hastert (R-IL). Today, we shake our collective heads in disbelief over Rep. Steve King (R-IA). It seems the good Congressman has been repeating the preposterous notion that it is somehow safer in Iraq than it is here in DC. Apparently, some willful ignorance and that patented "fuzzy math" has him concluding that the death rate is higher per 100,000 in DC than Iraq.

Um, we call bullshit.  Frankly, it's a disgrace to our soldiers who brave a truly dangerous environment that people like King peddle such nonsense.

Congress is taking Memorial "Week" off... so all of America must be enjoying the same benefits as Congress, right? We'll play the same game and come back at you next week with a new show...
