Out of Sight, Out of (His) Mind, & Out to Pasture

July 28, 2009 – 5:41 pm

The simple fact is that I have not raised the funds necessary to run an effective campaign for the U.S. Senate … I will continue to do everything in my power to ensure that the United States remains true to the principles that have made this country a beacon of freedom and economic opportunity for [...]

Bunning to C-J: NO NEWS FOR YOU!!!

June 18, 2009 – 11:33 am

As much fun as it is to rag on The Courier-Journal, our hearts go out to political reporter Joe Gerth, whom was recently declared persona non grata by Sen. Jim Bunning’s office for reasons both dumb and dumber.
That means no more conference calls, no more access, just a blatant “fuck you” to a guy whose [...]

Bunning See N’ Say

May 5, 2009 – 2:01 pm

Now that it’s getting warmer outside, Sen. Jim Bunning’s Crazy Glands are working overtime. And when Bunning’s veins are coursing with the Crazy, why, the incumbent sumbitch could say just any ol’ crazy thing that pops into his head (which we now know is occupied by a Gremlin pulling on the tiniest of levers).

And the [...]

Bunning v. Blow-up Doll

April 8, 2009 – 1:54 pm

Or winning elections — Senator Beanbag hath invoked the wrath of FOX 41’s Bill Lamb. Hilarity ensues as Lamb utilizes some novel, poetic imagery to lambast the incumbent Bunning. Get your lols out here.

Bunning: “Try, Try, Try Again”

March 31, 2009 – 1:16 pm

File under “it practically writes itself”: Sen. Jim Bunning describes his re-election campaign’s fund-raising efforts as “lousy,” and then proceeded to urinate on every reporter in the room.
Okay, not really. But perhaps he’s just trying to make his next quarter’s efforts seem better by comparison. Or maybe he’s having a hard time convincing his donors [...]

E tu, Mitch?

March 24, 2009 – 1:56 pm

On today’s very special episode of “Bunning!”, our favorite, irascible senator has some mighty choice words for his fellow Kentuckian, the little green people, and anybody (or anything) else who looks at him funny.
In what is sure to shock some fans of this beloved and long-running series, Jimbo accuses his best friend, Mitch, of the [...]

Defending Dr. Dan (A Letter to Allah)

March 23, 2009 – 5:36 pm

Dear Allah,
Have not the noble, hard-working, evangelical, and Republican-leaning peoples of this great Commonwealth suffered enough? After the fury You unleashed upon us in the form of ice, wind, and locust swarms, have we not fully atoned for our cursed political retardation? O cruel yet fair and invisible Cloud-Man, You test us, we of the [...]

Bunning: “My bad, Jesus.”

March 11, 2009 – 4:35 pm

Oh God… this man just won’t stop. Turns out Senator Bats has apologized “for taking the Lord’s name in vain” when he cursed at fearful reporters yesterday morning.
According to a tersely written report by Nashville’s WZTV, Bunning said he was sorry for uttering the words “goddamn” when referring to tightly guarded internal polling results that [...]

Bunning! (”Oh Snap” Edition)

March 10, 2009 – 3:29 pm

You have to admire a man whom the smart money would deign him to act in line, march in step with his battered party, and generally not run his fucking mouth all the time. Sometimes, this man will make wild accusations about his opponent’s son’s resemblance to a certain deceased son of a certain deceased [...]
