Let’s get some shit straight, shall we? Anthony Wiener’s penis pictures don’t hurt me. They don’t damage my relationship with my fiancee. They don’t take money [...]
Speaking of Christie…
Am I the only one who notices the resemblance?
here’s the bloated plutocrat…
And here’s Monty Python’s “Mr. Creosote”:
I think it’s an incredibly apt metaphor for what Governor Christie is doing to New Jersey.
