Red State Update: The Elf Who Liked Ron Paul

Love these guys.

Red State Update: President Newt

Red State Update: Government Shutdown! Nevermind. . .

Red State Update Returns!

Jackie and Dunlap are my favorite conservatives!

Red State Update: Is the Tea Party Racist?

It's been a lonnng time since I ran a clip from Red State Update. But damn, these guys are funny!

Red State Update: Appalachian Trail/Argentinian Tail

Jackie & Dunlap take on Governor Mark Sanford (R-South Carolina) and his bizarre, euphemistic adventure in Argentina (by way of the Appalachian Trail). Turn it down quiet or put on your earphones if at work, because some of the language is NSFW.

Red State Update: Bristol Palin & Abstinence

Hee hee! I just love these guys. Bristol Palin, abstinence, teen pregnancy, and Greta Van Whatsername are the subjects, and Jackie and Dunlap do their usual, hilarious banter. Check it out.

Red State Update: The Octuplet Mom

The story of Nadya Suleman, the lady who had the octuplets (whom actor Steven Weber hilariously called "Octopussy") isn't my type of story. It's more of a Greta van Whatsername or Nancy Grace kind of story, maybe even a Rita Cosby ('member her?) kind of story. But a post with an offhand comment about the octuplets spiked my readership, for some unknown reason.

So while I might not be interested, it is clear that you are. So, what to do? How about a recap of the whole story by one of my favorites, Red State Update with Jackie & Dunlap! Sure, why not. And I wonder if it was Dunlap or Weber who hit upon that nickname first?

Red State Update: The Great White North

Some of the best political humor prior to the election came from Red State Update, with Jackie and Dunlap, two satirical "red staters." Now that John McCain lost, J & D are in The Great White North (with a funny nod to Bob & Doug MacKenzie). After that, they receive a glorious letter from Karl Rove! Hysterical. . .

Quickie Post #1: Red State Update & Russia

Weekend blogging, weekend blogging. . .it's tough, man! We save 1,000 little things for the weekend, beat ourselves up when we only get a dozen or so done, and then we're pooped. I haven't had my "cat, couch and a & book" time in weeks! And of course, straying in her to my computer is a cheat to The Other Half, who is dutifully writing out "Thank Yous" for our wedding reception.

So, you know what? I'm going to give you a couple of quickies here, and then skip out until later this evening. No context, no relevance, just a couple of fun posts to enjoy.

Up first: Red State Update!

Red State Update: Do Aliens Exist?

I thought I'd finish out the month with a humerous post, devoid of politics. And even though the ridiculously funny Red State Update is usually political, this time they take on last week's story about an astronaut that thinks aliens exist. Enjoy.

Red State Update: Foreigners Love Barack Obama

The air has gotten thick on the old blog today. . .such seriousness. Time for a little levity, and to provide it, Red State Update!

Red State Update: McCain Can't Work the Internets

If you're wondering, "hey, what's with all the videos?" it's because of a couple of things. One, the weekend is finally here, and I simply don't feel like spending a lot of time working behind a computer just now. And two, The Other Half, myself, and two other couples are going to see the fabulous D-lister herself, Kathy Griffin tonight! Woo hoo!

So to keep from wearing myself out, I'm posting a few videos instead of long windy posts. So before I get too windy here, please enjoy this episode of Red State Update.

Red State Update: Guns (An Editorial)

In my continuing effort to lighten the hell up around here (while maintaining a focus on politics and news), here's another installment of Red State Update, commenting on the recent Supreme Court gun decision. . .

Red State Update: The Obama Rumors

Maybe I'm just demented, but I find these guys funny. And I needed to do something to get that story about feet out of the top spot! So, enjoy. . .

Red State Update on Gay Marriage

I know, two posts on gay marriage in a row. Sorry, but I found this by coincidence, and it's really, really funny. I don't know if these guys are entirely a put-on, or half-serious, but that there's funny, I don't care who you are. . .
