Pennsylvania Republican Governor Tom Corbett knows what is important to women.  Liquor laws, that’s what!

He wants to reform liquor laws in his state to help the little woman.

“I think a lot of people want to be able to walk into a grocery store,” Corbett said. “Particularly, a lot of the women, want to be able to go in and buy a bottle of wine for dinner, go down buy a six pack or two six packs, buy dinner, and go home. Rather than what I just described, is at least three stops, in Pennsylvania.”

Yeah, and we can pay them less if they only have to make one stop on the way home.

Now, I have to ask, if the little woman is bringing home a bottle of wine, 2 six-packs of beer, and one dinner, you think maybe she’s on the verge of killing some damn man?

So you wondered how Rand Paul got all that support in Iowa that was supposed to go to Rick Perry?  Cash.

Former Iowa state senator Kent Sorenson pled guilty on Wednesday to endorsing former Congressman Ron Paul’s campaign in exchange for secret payments and then lying about the payoff to investigators. In particular, he admitted “one count of causing a federal campaign committee to falsely report its expenditures to the Federal Election Commission (FEC) and one count of obstruction of justice in connection with the concealed expenditures.”

In all fairness, no one is saying that Rand Paul the actual person is involved in this.  However, two of his top people, like his deputy campaign manager and the head of his 2012 Presidential race, were very much involved.

Wanna know how much the payoff was?  $25,000.

You know, I don’t mind my politicians being for sale.  Hell, everybody is for sale.  What I mind is that they’re for sale so damn cheap.

Now here’s the very fun part:

The plea bargain though does prevent Sorenson from facing prosecution for allegations previously been paid in secret to support Michele Bachmann’s campaign before jumping ship to back Paul and guarantees that his wife will not face criminal charges as well.

Hellfire, this guy ain’t for sale.  He’s for rent!

Thanks to David for the heads up.

This is a here-ya-go headline if I ever saw one….

Yep.  Just in time for election season, they denied all scientific speculation and conquered frontiers of ignorance to bring you a $99. beer pack with 99 beers.

It’s brewed in Austin, where we keep things weird.  The beer is named Peacemaker.  I doubt it works.

Thanks to Eileen in Austin for the heads up.

Y’all, this guy is the GOP nominee for Senate – Senate! – in Alaska.

Seriously.

Hey, if he’s not any good at congress, we can always use him to kill all the other useless old giant teevees in America.

Thanks to Brian for the heads up.

Fortune magazine just released their list of the ten most corrupt states in America.

Yeah.

Do you see Texas on that list?  No, you do not.

Our Governor just got indicted and the Republican candidate for Attorney General, Ken Paxton, will probably get indicted before the election.

South Dakota?  Really, Fortune magazine, South Dakota over Texas?  Hell, there aren’t enough politicians in all of South Dakota to fill one decent size Republican fundraiser in a small town.  This is Texas, we got corruption on a BOGO sale.

Frankly, I’m insulted.

Let’s pretend that you’re the head of the Chevon PAC, which means you have money, money, money. So, do you buy an oil well or a congressman?

Click the little one to see the big one.

Honey, Honey, Honey, when your political contributions are called “excessive, prohibited, and impermissible,” you just might be giving a little too much.

For those of you unfamiliar with Pat Roberts, you might want to stay that way.  Go to his webpage this morning and see his top three issues:  Obamacare, Benghazi, and Ditch the EPA water rule.  He also opposes the Disclose Act, wonder of all wonders, as a “suppression of free speech.”  Obviously, his speech is not free – you gotta buy it.

Thanks to Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen for the heads up.
